Yet a limited number of the phones were made and now tipster @FrontTron is reporting that LG employees in South Korea have the exclusive opportunity to purchase either of the unreleased devices.

The Velvet 2 Pro is available in Black, Bronze, Ivory colors and we get a close look at the back of the Ivory white model. The design is quite similar to the first-gen Velvet with a triple camera setup though the lenses seem to protrude a tad more on this version. The phone is also said to feature pressure sensitive volume and power buttons.
