It seems that LG is going all out in Mobile World Congress 2016. After confirming that they are indeed unveiling their next flagship smartphone, the LG G5, which is then followed by the announcement of the Specialist X-series smartphones a few days later, the South Korean firm now reveals that the LG Stylus 2 will also make its official debut on the prestigious tech convention.
The Stylus 2 is slated to be the successor of the G4 Stylus from last year. It inherited some of its predecessor’s feature which includes a 5.7-inch IPS display with 720p resolution, a fairly large 3,000mAh battery pack, and stylish design.
LG has made a lot of improvements on the new model. For example, the company was keen to point out that the Stylus 2 is thinner (at 7.4mm vs 9.6mm) and lighter (at 145g vs 163g) compared to the G4 Stylus. The company has also upgraded the Stylus which now has a ‘nano-coated’ tip as opposed to the rubber-tipped stylus that came with the G4 Stylus.

LG didn’t disclose the SRP and release date of the new LG Stylus 2 at the time of writing, but it’s slated to make an appearance on the company’s booth at MWC in Barcelona. By then, maybe the company will share more details about its price and when it will reach the market.
