LG just pulled the wraps off of the G Pro Lite phablet. This is going to fall into the affordable phablet category just like the Samsung Galaxy Mega. The specs aren’t all that thrilling, but it does include a 3,140mAh battery and dual stereo speakers. However, don’t expect BoomSound because they are at the bottom of the device. The G Pro Lite also features a stylus, which will actually make the built-in Memo app actually useful. It only features Android 4.1.2, but you will get all the new software features found on the G2, including KnockOn and QSlide apps.
It will be offered in either black or white and will be available in Latin America this month followed by Asia, Russia, China, India and the Middle East. No word on the U.S., but I highly doubt it. Hit the break for full specs and press release.
