LG late on Monday started sending pres
invites for an event scheduled for April 2
where the company appears likely to
launch its next flagship smartphone, the
LG G4 .

The South Korean company confirmed
that the event will take place in New Yor
London, and Paris on April 28 followed
by an April 29 launch in Seoul,
Singapore, and Istanbul. The official
invite doesn't give away too much about
the event and just says, "See the great,
feel the great," with the G capitalised an
featuring the same font as LG's G series
brand. Also considering that LG launche
the G3 flagship back in May last year in
similar simultaneous events across the
world , we can expect that April 28 event
will see the unveiling of the LG G3's
successor.

The invite also features a leather
background indicating that the new LG
G4 might sport a leather rear case. We
will have to wait till April 28 to see what
LG has up its sleeves.

In other news, LG's upcoming G4
flagship is said to have been spotted in
benchmark results. As seen on GFXBench
(via GSMArena), a smartphone dubbed
LG G4 (F500x) is listed with Android 5.1
Lollipop; a 5.5-inch QHD (1440x2560
pixels); 3GB of RAM; 32GB inbuilt
storage; a 16-megapixel rear camera,
and an 8-megapixel front camera. The
GFXBench results show that the handset
will be backed by a hexa-core 64-bit
Snapdragon 808 processor. The
Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 SoC was
launched last year alongside the octa-
core Snapdragon 810 processor. Based
on previous reports, the LG G4 is likely t
be the first smartphone featuring the
company's brand new UI - LG UX 4.0.

A report earlier this month suggested tha
the flagship G4 launch was pushed to
April to avoid an MWC clash with the
Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6
Edge , and was said to be 'radically
different' from the current flagship the L
G3 .

After LG announced a global rollout for four

The official invite reads, “See the great, Feel the
great”. As rumoured, the new device will sport a
premium leather build. A report by
GSMarena states that the unveiling for the
device will truly be a ‘global affair’ and will take

In terms of specifications, a recent listing on
GFX Bench stated that the LG G4 will sport a
5.5-inch Quad-HD display with a 2560 x 1440
pixel resolution. Running Android Lollipop 5.1,
the device will be powered by a Snapdragon 808
hexa-core processor paired with Adreno 418

On the camera front, the G4 will have a 16MP
