Beyond the stylus, the LG Q Stylus offers premium features normally found in more expensive phones, such as an advanced camera that rivals the lens of the LG G series. QLens comes standard on the handset, allowing an image of a product to be captured to get more information on where to purchase that item or to learn about similar products. QLens is intelligent enough to recognise images of food, fashion, celebrities and landmarks, for example.
The intelligent camera doesn’t sacrifice on image quality, sporting an 8MP front camera and 16MP rear lens. Phase Detection Auto Focus (PDAF) makes the camera 23% faster than conventional autofocus while Portrait Mode delivers bokeh selfies.
Audiophiles will appreciate the sound quality of the LG Q Stylus. The phone offers the same advanced DTS:X found in the V and G series for up to 7.1 channel 3D surround sound when listening with earphones. USB Type-C fast IP68 water and dust protection and MIL-STD 810G compliance will appeal to the LG Q Stylus. The Smart Rear Key fingerprint sensor not only provides easy-to-reach security; it also doubles as the selfie camera shutter button.
Surrounded by the sleek metallic body, the 6.2-inch FHD+ FullVision display and vivid colours to enhance the viewing experience. The 18:9 screen ratio, thin bezel, curved tempered glass and optimised body width all work together to make the phone comfortable to hold and use with one hand.
“The LG Q Stylus adds another dimension to our series of exceptionally-priced midrange phones that deliver amazing value to consumers,” says Ha Jeung, senior VP and head of LG Electronics’ Mobile Business Division. “This phone is another example of LG’s promise to deliver a wider selection of devices this year with premium features designed to meet the diverse needs of today’s evolving smartphone users.”
