After much anticipation, the LG G3 has been officially unveiled for India and it’s already on sale with prices starting at Rs 47990. The said amount is for the 16GB model, while the 3GB version is also available, but for a slightly higher cost of Rs 50990.
The LG G3 has certainly been competitively priced in India, giving it a slight advantage against the Rs 53500 Galaxy S5 4G from Samsung and Sony’s Rs 48990 Xperia Z2. Compared to these phones which offer 1080p displays, the device in question packs a QHD panel which spans 5.5 inches wide. To top it off, the handset’s size is almost the same as conventional 5-inch phones.
As mentioned above, the flagship is official in two models. The 16GB one features 2GB of RAM, while the higher capacity 32GB option delivers 3GB of system memory. Also, LG is offering the device with 4G LTE connectivity onboard. The handset comes with various high-end hardware including the Snapdragon 801 SOC and just today, an updated version was announced with the faster Snapdragon 805 chipset and LTE-A connectivity for the Korean market.
And where software is concerned, the company has spared no expense here as well. The phone is loaded with Android KitKat and various exclusive features such as Smart Keyboard, Smart Notice and Smart Security amongst others. There’s also a Kill Switch function which allows you to remotely disable the phone when stolen or lost.
