Honestly, I saw the G3 Beat thru the leaked LG G3 Stylus thru a Youtube video (which it was already taken down but for sure, there will be re-uploaded versions). It has the same engine, display size, display resolution and LTE connectivity as the Cherry Mobile Ultra but the deal breakers are the Laser Autofocus ( I repeat) and the Knock Code.
Like the original G3 which has the same size as a known 5.2 inch smartphone with nice 3,000 maH battery, I’m also impressed that for the G3 Beat with 5 inch HD display, they put in a huge 2,540 mah battery.
My bit of concern if the specs from GSMArena is correct, there’s no LTE band 2100 which one of the LTE bands from a local telco. (I hope there’s a 2100 band too) I’m already contented to the HD display. I hope that it will land soon in the country at around P20,000 or less
