LG at times was able to keep their impending flagship smartphone undercover for a while, but now it's all disclosed and exposed to the web and the public. The new yet to go official handset from the South Korean consumer electronics manufacturing company has leaked once again in a couple of live photographs with the exclusive courtesy and watermark of GSMArena. As said in our earlier reports of LG's plans to introduce their forthcoming 2014 front runner in a special Gold color option at launch along with White and Gray paint jobs, witnessing the phone's retail box leak, we today see another prototype device itself in the Gold flavor, posing for the camera from it's both back and front.
The past Wednesday we seen leaks from evleaks, hinting to the phone to feature a brushed metal finish on it's back, where we still are in doubts whether this will be a built of metal chassis or just brushed metal patterns over their traditional polycarbonates. The first picture on the left too provokes the same question over and over, as we see the unit glaceing in the previously reported Gold color over some brushed metal finish. Matching our earlier leak and reads, the phone has still got the slightly redesigned physical hardware buttons configuration on the back, sitting under the primary camera lens, accompanied by a dual-tone LED flash to the right side of the main camera and an unknown sensor on the left.
As far as this new sensor on the left is concerned, we hear a lot of speculations based on the that, with some reporting it to be a fingerprint scanner, heart rate monitor and IR Blaster. But according to the new news from the source, surprisingly it will be some sort of laser beam based on Infrared technology, that will help take some great quality shots at night. But there was no mention of this when LG and KDDI went announcing, the isai FL, or so called G3's Japanese version, with almost same hardware, only compensating an Infrared Baster on board. Anyways we will have to wait for the words from LG for some official confirmation. What else is seen from the back is a speaker place towards the bottom left corner.
From the front, we have the rumored 5.5-inches AH-IPS Quad High Definition screen, that got recently announced officially by Life's Good manufacturer, where the company has promised us to feature it in their upcoming smartphone with really slim bezels and a resolution count of 1440 x 2560 pixels, marked at 538 pixels-per-inch, also attributing some LG branding down below.
As a bonus, the LG G3 is now rumored to be IPX7-certified, and we are also reading about some added-on features to the main camera functions, which indeed will take a selfie of yourself by just clapping your hands or by making the 'Whip' sound by your fingers. The new camera also supports some of the voice commands like, "Cheese", "Chica" and "Whisky".
Until now the looming LG made G3 or codenamed B2 and model dubbed LS990 is expected to come out of the box with a 2.3GHz Quad-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 chipset, 16 and 32 gigabytes of internal mass memory (expandable via microSD card slot), two or three gigabytes of RAM, 13 megapixels main camera on the back with OIS+, dual-tone LED flash and a 2.1 megapixels front facing snapper, a 3,00mAh powered batter and running Android's new version 4.4 or 4.4.2 KitKat with LG's own redesigned Optimus User Interface. You will need to keep your patients until 27th and 28th of this month, as the firm has scheduled events around the globe on the aforementioned dates.
