LG G3 new UI and ‘Concierge’ function leaks

People have been excited as to what the new flagship smartphone from LG has in store for those big fans of the LG G2. Well according to a leak from Digital Trends which they claim is “from a trusted industry source,” there are major changes happening for the LG G3 and it looks good. There are even photos of the new UI to back up their claims.

The three following screenshots were reported to be from the upcoming LG G3 which should “show flatter and brighter icons, a revamped weather widget with built-in suggestions, a much cleaner looking notifications screen, and circular icons (a new trend)”.

In addition, there’s also the ‘Concierge’ feature that supposedly works similar to Google Now. It takes note of the things you do to collect information then it throws useful suggestions at the user based on the figures collected. The photo below shows a recommendation about bringing an umbrella most likely since the user usually walks home at this time of the day and the ‘Concierge’ has already picked up this fact.

LG G3 confirmed with 2K WQHD display, but 640 DPI?

Sony, Samsung, and HTC have all unveiled their frontrunners and all that’s left from the big Android manufacturers is LG. The South Korean company has already confirmed that the soon-to-be-released LG G3 will in fact come with 2K display, but a benchmark photo shows the display to have 640dpi which is a bit unbelievable.

The benchmarked smartphone above was reported 99.99% to be the LG G3, and it shows that the device will be running on Adreno 330 GPU side-by-side a Qualcomm processor so it’s just logical to assume it will be a Snapdragon 801. Partner those with its WQHD screen display and we have a flagship phone in our hands.

The thing that caught our attention, though, is that it has 640dpi which doesn’t makes sense if the device is 5.5 inches as expected. For a display to have 640dpi with 2560 x 1440 screen resolution, the screen size should be around 4.6 inches. Either this is a miscalculation or the display is really that small, but we’re going with the former on this one. For a 5.5-inch display, we’re looking at around 534 dots per inch.

For the arrival of the LG G3, release in June is still our best bet since a newer Snapdragon 805 processor is about to come in devices starting July.

Here’s a refreshed specs list that we could expect from the LG G3:

5.5-inch WQHD display @ 2560 x 1440 resolution
Snapdragon 801 quad-core processor
3GB RAM
32GB storage (expandable to 64GB via microSD)
13MP rear and 2.1MP front cameras
LTE/EVDO/IS2000
GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth
Android 4.4.2 KitKat
