LG G3 'Prime' Emerges In Korean Ad Boasting Specs Improving Power, Speed
The LG G3 is just touching down in the U.S., but a premium variant of the smartphone could already be on its way to Korea, CNET reports.
The rumored "Prime" version of the LG flagship featuring access to an advanced network has been revealed in a new Korean mall advertisement, according to GForGames. The publication adds that the device is not currently available for pre-order, but registration appears to be open.
The ad text (after Google translation) reportedly reads "three times faster than broadband," suggesting Category 6 Advanced LTE speeds (Cat 6 LTE-A). It is unknown what other, if any, specs differences this model features compared to the current G3.
The alleged smartphone was also recently certified by the Bluetooth SIG:
"An LG F460L has been leaked before," GSMArena reports. "That could be the same device as the F460S, but headed to a different Korean carrier. "L" usually stands for LG U+, while "S" is used to depict phones sold by SK Telecom.
So it's quite likely that the LG G3 Prime will only be launched in South Korea, at least at first. That would be similar to what happened with the Samsung Galaxy S5 LTE-A - it too sports a Snapdragon 805 SoC, and it's Korea-only for now."
Korean website Naver previously reported that LG is planning on launching an improved version of the G3 with a tiny, but undoubtedly powerful specs change: a Snapdragon 805 processor. In comparison to the G3's 801, the 805 would boost battery life while improving the multitasking and gaming experiences, even offering the fastest 4G LTE and WiFi speeds up to date and 4K video support, Gotta Be Mobile reports.
