LG today announced the official launch of, a mid-tier variant of LG’s highly acclaimed LG G3 smartphone. The LG G3 Beat was developed to address the growing low- to mid-tier segment of smartphone customers who want a great device that’s more compact but still powerful enough to run the most popular apps. The LG G3 Beat delivers a similar premium user experience, sophisticated Floating Arc metallic design and fast Laser Auto Focus technology featured in the G3 but in a more compact package dominated by a 5.0-inch thin-bezel display, setting it a class above other similarly priced mid-tier devices.
Proving that less can be more; the LG G3 Beat comes with a largest-in-class 5.0-inch HD IPS display with a screen-to-body ratio of 74.1 percent, the highest in the mid-tier smartphone segment. The LG G3 Beat offers impressively thin bezels and a robust 2,540mAh battery. LG G3 Beat retains the best features and functions of the G3, delivering its values without compromising usability.
The LG G3 Beat will make its debut on July 18 in South Korea and begin its global rollout from Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries in the weeks that follow. The LG G3 Beat will be available as the LG G3 s in Europe and the CIS.
Highlights of the LG G3 Beat include:
Laser Auto Focus enables the G3 Beat to focus precious moments faster than ever before by measuring the distance between the subject and the camera using a laser beam.
Touch & Shoot lets users simply touch anywhere on the display to focus and shoot, reducing a two-step process to just one.
Gesture Shot allows you to simply clench your hand in front of the screen to automatically begin a three-second countdown before the picture is snapped.
Smart Keyboard learns how you type for faster input with fewer mistakes, reducing errors by up to 75 percent.
QuickMemo+ lets you jot, sketch, take notes and be as creative and inspired as you want to be.
