The LG G4 Stylus is the LG G4’s cousin that features a stylus pen. It was announced back in May and has finally landed locally in the last week of August. We finally got our hands on one so read on to find out our initial thoughts about the device.
With the “G4” in its name, the G4 Stylus bears some resemblance to the flagship G4. While the G4 sports a 5.5-inch screen, the G4 Stylus’s is slightly larger at 5.7 inches but with a lower HD resolution resulting to a pixel density of 258ppi. It also has an IPS panel which gives off decent wide-viewing angles.
Placed above the display are the earpiece, notifications light, and the 5 megapixel camera. Down below is the LG logo. Like the G4, the G4 Stylus uses on-screen navigation buttons.
Like most smartphones equipped with rear keys, the left and right sides are barren, allowing the device to flaunt its plastic frame with brushed-metal finish. However, if you look at the top you will see the headset jack, microphone, and the slot for the Rubberdium Stylus Pen. Down at the bottom are the microUSB port and the microphone.
Flip the G4 Stylus and you will find the 13 megapixel camera, LED flash, the famous rear keys for power/lock and volume, Laser AF, loudspeaker, and the LG logo.
If you have noticed, the removable backplate sports shiny metallic finish which really looks like a thin sheet of metal. And if you look closely, you will see that it is textured with tiny slits which makes it look attractive, grippy, and nice to hold at the same time. Take that backplate off, here you will see the removable 3,000mAh battery, two microSIM card slots, and the microSD card slot.
