LG Stylus 2 Phablet announced in India at Rs 20,500

While LG G5 stole the show at this year's Mobile World Congress (MWC) at Barcelona, it has yet to be launched for the Indian market. Another smartphone that was announced at the MWC was also the LG Stylus 2 and while it may have seemed like an interesting handset back then, it some how does not sound too appealing now that it has been announced in India, all because of its Rs 20,500 price tag.The handset appeared on LG's India website along with its specifications and pricing. The LG Stylus 2 is the direct successor to the LG G4 Stylus that was launched in India last year at an equally shocking price tag of Rs 24,900. It should be available for purchase in markets soon.The refreshed smartphone features a 5.7-inch HD display (1280x720 pixels). Inside, we find a quad-core 1.2GHz chipset paired with 2GB of LPDDR3 RAM and 16GB internal storage that thankfully also supports expanded storage with support for microSD cards. Buyers will get a 13MP camera on the back, while the front-facing camera packs in an 8MP sensor. You get the usual connectivity options including 4G LTE bands and the handset packs in a 3,000mAh battery.What may be considered the highlight of this smartphone, is the fact that it packs in Android 6.0 Marshmallow. This of course is skinned by LG's custom UI. And then there's also LG's nano-coated stylus that is included in the package. The handset weighs 145 grams and will be available in brown and titanium colour variants.
