Two weeks ago, a well-known leaker announced on his social networking sites that LG’s latest flagship smartphone, the G3, would launch on Verizon in the United States later this year, and earlier today an FCC filing was published confirming that the forthcoming handset is, indeed, compatible with Big Red’s LTE bands.

The Federal Communications Commission documentation reveals that the super-sized smartphone will feature a 5.5-inch True HD-IPS+ LCD capacitive touchscreen with a resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels, a Qualcomm MSM8975AC Snapdragon 801 chupset powered by four 2.5GHz Krait 400 CPU’s, an Adreno 330 GPU, 3GB of RAM and a 3,00mAh Li-Ion battery.

Sadly, the filing doesn’t provide any clues with regards to a launch date for Verizon’s model, but we already know that AT&T’s model will be launching in the United States pretty soon. So, hopefully, we won’t have to wait too long before Big Read publishes a pre-order page for its yet-to-be announced 4G variant.
