LG G3 caught in the wild, back-mounted keys here to stay

26 April, 2014
There's is some sort of mysterious sensor alongside the camera and the rear-mounted keys get a new design.

sadly the button layout design structure is not the best looking as compaired to original g2....the button looks stunning on the g2 rather than the leaked g3 pics....hope they bring in an 16 megpixel optical image sensor camera , and add a memory card slot and the much awaited snapdragon 805. it will be a win situation for this smartphone, it will surely blow away the competition like the g2 did....hope lg is listening....

    I reckon it is a heart rate sensor

        Looks like a finger print scanner to me.

            AnonD-239081, 26 Apr 2014It doesn't show the full back panel so keep fingers crossed... They will probably still with the bottom of the phone like the nexus 5 and the G2. It has been working for them.

              jofen, 26 Apr 2014it seems no sign of speaker at the rear, so hopefully it ha... moreIt will probably be at the bottom like the nexus 5 and G2 i would bet.

                Sadly, it looks a lot like that useless heart rate sensor. As Samsung's ultimate copycat I wouldn't be surprised by LG, but at the same time they made some cool stuff themselves, so they don't need to copy the most stupid things samsung does.

                  By the way! This leaked picture looks more like a G pro 2!

                      I definitely will change my Iphone 4s for this G3!
                      I'm so tired of the 3 inch display. I really can't believe Apple is going for the small 4,7 inch display in the future, combined with their old fashioned home buton! Apple Ios is for old ladys and the design and smal display of the 5s is so 2008!!

                        luckygoldstar, 26 Apr 2014Looks like there will be two version of lg g3...the one wit... moreI'm so sick of hearing people wanting a removable battery. How about just having a great battery like the G2 that lasts a day and a half. Needing a removable battery means the one they gave you sucks so you gotta buy another one to get through the day. Great feature.

                                  I'm pretty sure that's the ir blaster next to the camera. They did the same thing on the g flex

                                    Speaker could be masked by the filter (Courtesy of the artist who took the pic) since it's probably in the lower part of the back.
                                    It's not likely to be fake, since a very similar design was leaked before, so no, not likely to be fake.
                                    If the phone is like isai, then the speaker is indeed on the back, lower part, which rules out the speaker being on the top part of the back of the phone, which means that it could be a sensor of some sort or a double flash.

                                      I think what they called a sensor could actually be the speaker. The one at the left of the camera.
