LG has announced the Style 3 as its latest addition to the Japanese market. The smartphone features a mix of modern and dated specifications. For example, it features 2018’s Snapdragon 845 chipset, a wide notch on the display and a basic dual camera setup. However, there are a few notable features of the device, including an IP68-rated dust and water resistant chassis, OLED display, dedicated Google Assistant button and NFC for payments. The smartphone has been released for Japan’s DoCoMo carrier, and is expected to go on sale in summer this year. Availability for international markets has not yet been announced.
