12

LG today announced the release of the Stylus 2, a brand new smartphone that was first unveiled last month as a successor to the G Stylo / G4 Stylus from last year. For now, the LG Stylus 2 is launching only in South Korea, where it's going on sale this week for around $328 (396,000 KRW in local currency). According to Korean website Yonhap News, later this month, the handset should also be released in North America and Europe.
Last year's LG G Stylo is currently sold in the US for around $290 (off contract), so we assume that the Stylus 2 will have a similar price when (and if) it lands stateside. We'll let you know when we hear more about this.

Running Android 6.0 Marshmallow, the LG Stylus 2 is a pretty large device, as it sports a 5.7 inch display (with 720 x 1280 pixels and 258 ppi). The handset is built around a metallic frame, and obviously comes with a stylus pen - an enhanced one that offers increased accuracy thanks to a nano-coated tip. The new pen also benefits from a feature called Pen Keeper, which displays "a popup message when the phone is detected as being in motion when the stylus bay is empty" - thus preventing users from losing the pen.
The Stylus 2 is powered by an unknown quad-core processor clocked at 1.2 GHz, further featuring LTE connectivity, a 13 MP rear camera, 8 MP front-facing camera, 16 GB of expandable internal memory, and a 3000 mAh battery. There's 2 GB of RAM on the Korean Stylus 2, but the handset may have only 1.5 GB of RAM in other markets.
