LG announces two new members of the G4 family, the G4 Stylus and G4c. #LG #Tech #Mobile

LG have announced some more new devices not so long after the release of the G4 ,we now have two more models to the line up making it affordable with some of the G4 looks and more,these will be a nice addition to the current portfolio.

The G4 Stylus is a 5.7-inch handset, slightly larger than the 5.5-inch display found in the G4. As its name implies, The G4 Stylus includes LG’s versatile Rubberdium™ Stylus, allowing for easy note taking and drawing on the generously-sized screen. Its smaller sibling, the 5.0-inch LG G4c, offers many of the G4’s premium features and styling but in a more compact form factor.

Both G4 Series phones feature 13MP or 8MP rear cameras and 5MP front-facing camera for high quality photos and portraits. Other popular LG exclusives such as Gesture Shot, Glance View and Knock Code make both devices more convenient, secure and fun to use. The G4 Stylus inherits the super-fast Laser Autofocus feature found in previous G Series smartphones for sharply focused shots even in dim surroundings. HD quality IPS displays with In-Cell Touch technology deliver a visual experience that is far more immersive and responsive than on most other smartphones in this class.

“The G4 Stylus and G4c are perfect examples of what we mean by a premium smartphone experience without a premium price,” said Juno Cho, president and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “We are committed to offering consumers in fast-growing markets LG devices that not only deliver performance, but also look good while doing so. Both the G4 Stylus and G4c will surpass customers’ expectations of what an LG phone should be.” The G4 Stylus (available as G Stylo in North America and Korea) will be offered in both LTE and 3G configurations in Metallic Silver or Floral White color options. The G4c is an LTE model only and will come in Metallic Gray, Ceramic White and Shiny Gold.

LG G4 Global roll-out begins shipping in key markets #LG #G4 #Android

The LG G4 has started shipping to key markets but will Ireland be one of them ? Like the past few devices from LG which no operator touched here its yet to be seen if it will actually launch here in Ireland,as the G Flex 2 has not been seen,the same applied to the G3 which was a great device.

We do hope to see the G4 here and some operators show some love as LG have upped their game over the last two years and on many of our local forums people are screaming for the devices.The devices themselves are quite nice and a worthy device to have on Irish shelves.

 

SEOUL, May 18, 2015 — Customers in key markets around the world will finally get their chance to own the latest advanced smartphone from LG Electronics (LG), one which industry experts have widely praised for its exceptional camera, vivid and expansive display, and willingness to set new rules in defining what a premium mobile device could be.

 LG G4 will begin rolling out this week to consumers in key markets around the world, continuing throughout the month into June and beyond as more retailers and operators see what LG G4 has to offer their customers. Starting in Hong Kong, the G4 will follow with rollouts in Turkey, Russia and Singapore, eventually including most of Europe, North America, CIS, Southeast Asia, Middle East/Africa and South/Central America. Approximately 180 carriers and retails are already on board as G4 partners.

Smartphones are reducing our attention spans reports study by #Microsoft #Tech #Mobile

There is enough controversy in the news right now about how mobile devices are affecting people of all ages not just the young and the old but all of us,recently being a Doctor saying prolonged time on such devices can be a cause of Autism and then we have some scientists saying they are killing us which has been rubbished by many,this will always be a case for debate so perhaps the Mythbusters should be called in ?

The study found that the average human attention span has fallen from 12 seconds in 2000 to 8 seconds in 2015 which is one second less than that of a goldfish.

The survey carried out by Microsoft found that many will not even make it to the end of this article as 17pc of all page views last just four seconds or less.

“[People] with more digital lifestyles struggle to focus in environments where prolonged attention is needed,” the study says.

Microsoft’s research did find our abilities to multitask have improved.

“While digital lifestyles decrease sustained attention overall, it’s only true in the long-term. Early adopters and heavy social media user’s front load their attention and have more intermittent bursts of high attention,” the study read.
