LG has officially unveiled its newest phablet in Korea – the G Pro 2.

Following in the footsteps of the G Pro, the new phablet boasts a larger 5.9-inch Full HD IPS display and the signature button placement we’ve seen in the LG G2.

The smartphone gets a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chip with a 2.26GHz quad-core processor, 3GB of RAM and 16GB or 32GB of on-board storage, which can be expanded via a microSD card. Connectivity-wise, LG has given the G Pro 2 with LTE-Advanced, Wi-Fi b/g/n/ac, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0, SlimPort and a micro USB port.

There’s a 13MP at the back of the device with optical image stabilisation and the option to adjust the focus of a photo after a shot has been taken (an option similar to other smartphones with a high-performance camera), as well as 4K UHD and 1080p video recording. There’s also a 2.1MP camera at the front.

In the software department, the G Pro 2 will run on Android 4.4 KitKat with the company’s Emotional UI on top. There’s also a Knock Code feature which allows a user to unlock the device by knocking on its display using a specific combination.

There’s no word on pricing and shipping dates yet, but we’ll certainly get more details in the future, most probably during MWC.
