  • Does it need to be charge 8 hours for a new phone?

  • To all Indian Users. This model bears K535D as model number for Indian Market. Users can now buy at Local store for less than ₹.15000. Online price is high. Upgradable to 7.0. No promise on Oreo. But I hope it will arrive on December. Last security patch is march. Front cam has flash but can't use in Insta or Any video calling app. Clarity is As par with J7 prime in daylight. Not so good in Dark(every phone has this problem) If you want Fingerprint and it was the only feature that J7 prime is better than Stylus 2 plus. Bouth sims have 4G Volte compatibility. Better Display than Samsung Amoled. 1080P IPS display deep darks and perfect Whites. Don't go for Oppo f1s or Vivo v7+. This id far beter than those.

  • Pls anyone tell about display to compare with samsung amoled display,which looks better,nd about camera to compare with samsung.plz

  • Plz download app from lg

  • Go for home and app drawer

  • Congratulations to lg stylus 2 plus owners and fans we will be receiving android 8.0 by October this was reported by lg spokesperson from Korea

  • How to use fingerprint lock on lg stylus 2 plus plz help me

  • Not really worth it until u are a stylus fan

  • But in the ad it says LG stylus 2 plus has got fingerprint sensors

  • K530F, K535D and K535N models has no fingerprint scanner

  • I bought lg stylus 2 plus. It says that it has got finger print sensor, but mine has got no such thing.

  • Both sims are new and work in other mobiles with least one point as signal. Earlier my mobile used to show atleast that. Issues after upgrade to Noughat 7

  • After upgrade am facing no service issues for both sims Jio 4g and Airtel. Both say expamded till corner villages, but am in mid city of Hyderabad. But am surprised how 2 months worked without issues.

  • Nice phone good performance but a data usage option should add in notification status so we can know our data usage plz in next update include it.....

  • totally phone is very nice just battery backup problem only another wise totally happy

  • Just got a month ago and charging very low.Hate it.

  • The phone is good specially the battery that gives 20 hours on data. touch and overall UL is good. Battery saver option is awesome. can move apps data to SD via developers option enabled

  • Would an Indian Stylus 2 Plus work on T-mobile? 3gb RAM version?

  • Just got stylus 2 plus in slightly used condition. Was confused after i went through the reviews but happy on my decision. Today it got the update for android 7.0 Everything is working fine with a good battery life of 18 hours while connected on 3G. Satisfied.

  • lg stylus plus 2 is very good phone for this price range. other phone's drawbacks will be the advantage in this phone. anyway it is far better than samsung. samsung phone with bsnl sim was horrible time for me.

  • Probably the worst camera you will find in this price range. Quick cover is cool...

  • In the beginning my Stylo 2 Plus fingerprint scanner was operating just fine for nearly a year. However, when I updated to Android 7.0, I no longer have that function available. Is there anyone out there experiencing the same issue

  • Does it have nfc?

  • Fingerprint version is area dependent.

  • bought the model and then came to know that it has no fingerprints. They never tell this in advertisements etc.... in India. Feel cheated.

  • Easly you cann instol auto call recorder

  • I purchased this set yesterday in used condition. I ready all reviews mentioned on this page about this set and I was little bit hesitated to purchase this set but believe me the set is working fine and I am loving. Performance is super than expected.

  • Nice phone....reliable...!!avarage camera...totaly feel good But otg not support

  • There is no OTG for this phone which cost around 20000 and Screen Mirroring while Phones which are in range of 15000 or below are able to provide OTG and Screen Mirroring

  • Can somebody tell me how to use the fingerprint

  • Is there anyway I can enable the call recording facility through OS for my K535D (Indian) ? Now a days call recording is a common feature, but not sure why LG has not given that.

  • my phone model is k535d, indian model.

  • Back power and volume button is not user friendly just a being different allure. Dual sim fails work only one sim will have range, other has to be shut a serious flaw when both are 3G/4G. Battery is long to charge battery doesn't lost long. Does stylus useful or just gimmick ?

  • Thats good news. What provider do you have? I have metropcs but haven't gotten my update yet.

  • Got android 7.0 version update today.. Now i can move data files to sd card instead of phone memory.

  • I brought a stylus 2+ , it s totally a waste mobile- all the applications are downloded from play store. all are paid applications. Including call recording, music player. SMS etc.... in built sms facility s an old version, it limited bulk sms. it s not a user frindly phone. lot's of draw backs,.dont buy LG phones.

  • lg is good and im inlove woth my lg stylus 2 but unfurtunately ,it fell down and sunk in the toilet bowl that caused it to not work properly .I cant use it anymore.huhu

  • Lg must have some special love for these phones because they are not made in china, atleast mine isnt.

  • I had the original stylus and loved it but it got stolen. Ive had the 2 plus now for awhile and i have no complaints. The performance is awesome and the phone handles all my daily tasks.

  • This device is amazing. The thing which is best about it is its battery timing. the first day i bought it I charged to to 64% and went to uni than through all my day with at-least 4hrs of screen on time with 1.5hrs music in the bus , I still had 20% left at 7.30 pm when I got home the overall performance is great and I think its one of the best mid-range devices out there right now.

  • We are really lucky that a midrange device like this gets an OS update. Im waiting on mine

  • Received the android 7 on my device and updated it. Works just fine

  • You are right, im having same problem maybe more, the bootloop problem, Lg phone sucks . Now i am back to my old nokia phone. Dont buy LG

  • Lg has released android 7.0 for the stylus ..... So far so good

  • Got the android nougat update today it works 👍

  • The message given by Bathul is false she must have rooted the phone but as of today there has been no update to nougat on stylus 2 or 2 plus for that matter

  • Hos did you get android 7 which version are you using

  • Depends on the country you are in.. Some versions have some don't..Here in India we don't

  • I thoght the usb otg is hardware dependant..I don't think any update can fix it.. however..I can be wrong too

  • My mobile is heating problem come... how to solve it..

  • Sorry dear no otg even after the update

  • No the android N update sadly does not give an otg update . Moreover I have not tried so after updating it would be better to try

  • Does the update have OTG support

  • Finally I received android nougat update yay!,,,,,,

  • Finally I received android nougat update yay!,,,,,,

  • When you pull the pen out, and get that little icon for the pen options, just press, hold, and slide to remove. Took me a few moments to figure it out also. It'll fix the frustration. :)

  • Yes it has fingerprint :)

  • I have issues with this phone anytime try to use the messenger or facebook or donwload other apps it gave me the error message > SCREEN OVERLAY ON and I cant find how to turn this off!! did u guys know how to to turn this off

  • Hi Bro try this. Go to setings>more>cellular data>Preferred network type and change it to GSM/HSPA/LTE if there is no GSM band selected you can't make a call. if you are in LTE Only mode only data will be useable

  • Hi Friends in this Phone Fingerprint available or not?

  • I am got this phone 2 days before. I am facing problem in mostly areas, where LTE available . at this point phone just giving me Data & sms, whereas unable to receive or do calls. Is there any frequency Issue?

  • But there are worse problems than the absent fingerprint reader in my opinion..For example the LG stylus 3 (announced) has a 720p display and 16gb internal storage..Finding it pretty difficult to wrap my head around this..so only options left are either to wait for LG stylus 3 plus (not yet announced in india) or should go for this one if this is indeed getting the nougat update..Fingers crossed

  • Nope ..not in the indian version stylus 2 plus

  • Nougat update expected for this model in India?

  • In some regions it does some it doesnt.

  • does this phone have a fingerprint scanner ?

  • Try removing it

  • why my battery is stock in 50%? even i charge it or it becomes low battery .. it always stock in 50%.

  • How to update lg stylus 2 plus to android 7 . If anyone has done this please share the procedure

  • how do i enable the fingerprint reader. i can't find it, is it only in K535D?

  • Lg > samsung

  • Has anyone upgraded their lg stylus 2 + to Android Nougat? If anyone has I would like to know how it has been performing? If you are still waiting for this update please inform as to when it would be released. Thank you

  • I thought if you removed or disabled the bloatware it would cause the phone to act up or some apps won't work. How do you remove it and not cause a problem?

  • You can restart the device by either holding down the power button and then select restart device from the menu pop-up or open battery cover and remove the battery.

  • guyz , how can I restart the stylus 2 plus?i just bought the phone yesterday and I don't know how to restart it..thanks

  • 1.Does it freeze all the time ? 2.Is the screen sensitive?

  • How is the quality of the LG stylus 2 plus ?is it a good phone like Samsung ?

  • 500 hrs uptime and no hangs. Maybe your phone is defective or you installed a bad app

  • Do not buy this phone , always hanging

  • Another new update Feb 2017.May be LG release nougat for stylus 2 plus.

  • I owned the original stylo and loved it. This one is even better and improves on just about everything. And for $69 you can't beat that!

  • very bad phone becasue this hand set 3rd party app not saport

  • Omg this phone does stick so much its sucks takes forever for the camera to take out pics and much more I want the Lg g5 plan b

  • Taiwan version just got another security update

  • My posting was using the voice feature to text which is horrible sorry for the bad grammar

  • Look I understand a lot of people buy phones don't & dont know what to do with them. Like for example a tablet and a phone in one. if you're taking the time like me to figure it out and get your phone comfortable to where you are having the best experience. spend that time. Are used Camera MX and toolwiz photo app also using the Google experience has helped this the stock phone for T-Mobile apps run better and smoother. What's up app good too free WiFi calling free texting via Wi-Fi. Truemessenger is helpful in blocking unwanted call. I can see the one bad thing is The Voice to text function lacks performance and recognition. Do your research remove all the bloatware and get your phone optimal

  • Like it alot. Previously had an LG G2. For basic talk, text, internet use and casual photos its fine. When picking it up the auto rotate sometimes engages when you dont want it to, but this isint often and happens with LG models as well.

  • I got my new K535D on 24 Dec. I am not able to use gps for navigation. Frequently calls drop and camera is not performing good. Not worth for a 20k mobile.

  • I just got this phone last month because i figured a 16 mp camera would be better than my 8mp Samsung camera and its not! There are barely any settings and it never focuses. It takes forever to load pics and apps and contacts names but not their numbers. It constantly freezes and i have to keep taking the battery out to reset it. I know it costs alot less than high end Samsungs and Iphones but for $280 i expected my phone to not be so crappy right out of the box! Now im stuck making payments for the next two years for junk! Good job with this one LG! NOT! I have an LG 3 Sitting here that wont turn on and i cant get my pics or video off it of my beloved kitty who died of Feline leukemia 6 months ago! I will never by an LG product again they have cost me too much financially and emotionally!

  • My husband and I bought our LG stylus 2 at the same time in December 2016 and his just started having the same problem

  • My hubby's LG V10 has the same issue

  • I bought my lg stylus 2 last january 20, 2017..and then today 30th of january it wont turn on normally. Only lg logo appears. Have to bring it to service centre tomorrow for inquiries..anyone have same issues with this lg phone?

  • Nougat will eventually be available for ALL LG Stylus 2 Plus phones. We may have to wait till March for this though.

  • Which region/model has the fingerprint sensor??

  • Thanks.. will do the same... :-)

  • Your problem can be solved by going on to the LG home website they have an FAQ section where an LG technician will help you solve the problem. You will have to register and create a user id on the lg home website. They will get back to you within 24-48 hrs and they are extremely prompt. Hope this answers your questions

  • i have LG K530TR model that is showing 3gb ram.. but when i check its imei no on www.imei.info it is showing K550 model!!! in my setting it is K530TR, behind battery sticker it is also K530TR, when i connect it while on with lg bridge it is showing K530TR but when i connect it with lg bridge while download mode it is showing K550BNG01... what is this can anyone tell me please? i need to upgrade it to 7.0 i have downloaded the file of v20a for k530TR.. what to do now?

  • When will nougat update come to lg stylus?.....

  • Well, if you would have read the description carefully, you would have noticed that certain regional models do not have fingerprint scanner, i.e. K530F, K535D and K535N models has no fingerprint scanner.

  • I would like to really know if there is anyone who got android nougat update on there lg stylus 2 plus in India. If so how is it functioning? Please let me know

  • Why the lg company promoting the lie why because there is no fingure print scanner in lg stylush 2 plus

  • Security update 6.0.1.

  • Android 7.0 now available for LG stylus 2 plus

  • Thanks for your input. I'm thinking of getting a stylus 2 plus and all I've heard are bad hints about it.

  • No screen mirroring/miracast bc LG didn't agree to google terms. No miracast. Silly. We have an LG smart tv and it was really the only reason an lg phone was chosen...assumed miracast would be available. The last lg I had had it. Processing power is great. Phone screen great. Memory great.

  • I purchased the LG Stylus2 Plus in December,model Lg-k535T there were two major updates straight away when I powered on for the first time Nougat 7.0 phone runs very smoothly no bugs or problems so far,love this phon,stylus is great to use, My previous phone was the Samsung S7 I do prefer the LG also love the 5.7 screen it's bright and crisp. It has not got OTG but that's not a problem for me, would definitely recommend this model.

  • Theres too many different versions of this phone. Gsmarena messed up putting it all under one phone. Some versions have fingerprint scanner. Some dont. Some have different cameras. Some have 720p some have 1080p. Its all over the place

  • Anyone Sale LG Stylus 2 Plus?

  • Lg has released new updates for better usability and functionality of the LG Stylus 2+ LG will be releasing the Android Nougat (7.0) in about a months time for the lg stylus 2 and 2 plus.

  • Lg not support the OTG i am not imparse

  • Phone keep dropping calls! Wtf! I bought 5 and they all do the same thing !

  • Take the plastic off the power button

  • Please don't purchase the LG stylus 2 plus because high radiation and hanging the mobile not support OTG. If you purchase LG mobile waste of 20k money

  • K535T

  • The taiwan model. Nougat

  • Otg cannot be used with stylus. There might be apps on play store which can be downloaded to make ur device compatible with otg. Did you get the new update? Please reply

  • My otg is not at all.... Any body have an idea how to use this..

  • how is buying lg stylus 2 plus which is better lg stylus 2 plus or lenovo z2 plus

  • I just got an update today thinking it was nougat, but my stylus device just shows marshmallow. When will nougat be available and what was this recent update all about

  • Which model? MS550, K550 and K535D do not have any 7.0 update yet.....I just saw a security patch of December 2016.

  • ya bhai ..mine tooo...no otg support....and it is hanging just in a span of 20 days...worst phone...i wasted 20000

  • When will this be available in the Philippines?

  • I am happy with this phone. It is a phone that has its quality. Battery is quite lasting per charging. Charge it when the battery level is 30% OR BELOW. Then will you get the fullest of the battery enduring usage.

  • Mine is lg-k535d (indian version) has no fingerprint sensor, no otg support, 16gb inbuilt memory, 3gb ram.

  • Is this phone have fingerprint sensor any one tell about mobile performance and camera what about for gaming....!

  • always rebooting

  • How did u get your lg stylus 2 plus updated? I ve been trying and still got no update pls tell me

  • No bro. It takes about 2hrs & 30 mts for a full charge

  • Can't turn the volume control on very low settings,while using headphones , it gets distorted or no sound at all.

  • Just got android 7.0 update!

  • Mine has it and it works just fine

  • Camera option very poor

  • got one in October. had problems with the earphone jack. warranty exchanged it and got one that is now rebooting whenever I try using it. now awaiting another warranty exchanged one. a real waste of time

  • I buy le stylus 2. What about this?

  • this phone lg stylus 2 plus doesnt have finger print scanner ...rest phone is just superbbbbbb any1 having the same problem ?

  • yes

  • I think its just a security update. Its still android 6

  • It's a better camera than most competitors in the price range including Oppo, Vivo, Gionee etc. only HTC might be slightly better (One X9).

  • Has been announced for some variants of this phone. So, it's likely all variants will get it, because the SoC is the same.

  • Are you sure? - Word prediction and completion works just fine - No issues with contacts on my phone - 16MP back cam is one of the best in this category without doubt

  • Confirmed: At least some variants of this phone are getting the Nougat update.

  • I brought a LG Stylus 2 plus last month. compared to my old Lenova K3 note. lots of drawbacks. No call record, contact search is difficult to take (eg: a two word name we want, we cant get it easily), at the time of call conncting we can'nt get viberation alert. writing language only two options. local la nguage and Eng writing- No Key board option on google handwriting. Very low sound. No 16MP quality on backcam. No word completion and prediction on board. Surely waste of money. I cannot believe its a more than 20000 rupees phone.

  • do enyone updated the latest version of android to lg stylus 2 +? there is update available 347 mb. i have 6.0.1 and i didnt update it yet. i want to know is tht 7.0 or another patch for 6.0..

  • It is the carrier's fault.

  • No

  • Don't waste your money! Stylo 2 blows. Phone overheats when you aren't even doing anything but surfing the web. Constantly down loading IDK what. Stylus fell out the first week i had the phone. Phone kept freezing up. Call quality is terrible, constantly crackling and cutting out. Virgin mobile is my carrier, not the best maybe but good bang for the buck. Phone has 16gb of internal storage and 8gb of that that was bloat ware that you can't uninstall. Phone would freeze up constantly and i had to take out the battery and reboot a few times everyday. I used it for about 4 months and HATED it. I was super disappointed and i will NEVER buy an LG phone again. The phone was stolen and i had to laugh! Hope they have better luck with it y than

  • Hello, im looking for a good phone, is Lg Stylus 2 plus is a good phone? can i use for OTG? is it available in the market now? where? thank you

  • Is this phone support fast charger?

  • The features you deem unimportant are the very ones which make a phone, usable. Communication, connectivity and computing have now become the core functions of a phone.

  • People prefer certain phones for specific features. The features you deem unimportant - the large screen and the stylus - are exactly my reasons for preferring the LG Stylus 2 to the Zenfone. Having experienced amazing productivity gains with the Samsung Galaxy Note series, I would not compare any phone without a digitiser stylus with one that has.

  • what about primary camera status ... ???

  • I bought the LG 535T (Stylus 2 Plus) because of its stylus, hoping it would be an acceptable replacement for my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 which, by the way, keeps going strong. Sadly, I am disappointed in the LG because, straight from the box, I set it up. Then I found that I am unable to delete any SMS, unless I delete the entire thread! When I want to delete an SMS, I get "Delete error", without any explanation! For a phone to behave that way, straight out of the box, is totally unacceptable.

  • Can someone tell me how to conserve battery power on my lg stylus 2 plus. The phones battery seems to be draining pretty fast

  • The Asus Zenfone 3 (5.2") already retails for around that price and except for the screen real estate and stylus, it doesn't really lack anything. In fact it offers a better SoC, the Snapdragon 625. And besides, that cost cutting theory doesn't quite cuts it. The fingerprint variant costs somewhere around 8k ~ 16k. The 3GB\1080p variant costs around 20k. Theory doesn't works. Even after accounting for the fingerprint sensor costs, other features aren't bank breaking - OTG, Dual band WiFi ac. OTG support is kernel based while the .ac standard is already supported by the chip. Getting rid of these minor annoyances and repackaging the same body with the newer (and better) chip would make the upcoming Stylus a well rounded device by 2017 standards.

  • With fingerprint but it came with HD (720p) resolution and 2GB of RAM. Ofc they did that to reduce the cost in replace of the fingerprint. If you want the FHD (1080p) and 3GB of RAM one then fingerprint is sacrificed. Ofc you wouldn't have both with such price and to have both means you need the budget for the upper midranger.

  • -No OTG -No Fingerprint sensor -No Gyroscope sensor -No Dual band WiFi ac standard -Not having standard 32GB internal memory Really, at 20k LG should've thought about that. The Stylus 3 or Stylus 2017 should fix all of the above.

  • OTG not support,but perfomance is very good i like

  • is stylus 2 plus supports OTG?

  • go for stylus 2 compared to vivo max3 I'm telling you ahaha

  • B4 this I using lg g3 stylus, I use Samsung note 1st generation..(note1) both almost having the same features.. Samsung note is expensive.. I prefer lg stylus 2 plus...

  • LG Stylus 2 plus or Vivo V3 Max?

  • Is that mobile contain dual Sims ?

  • Hi guys!! I would like to ask for your help, which phone is better, LG stylo 2 plus or Huawei P9 Lite? Please reply thank you!! :D

  • You seem to be right, yr points appear to be valid. Thanks 4 reply

  • Will it get the update Android(N) 7.0 ? It is not clear? I want to buy but update problem makes me hesitate..

  • The SD617 has a better a modem but an older GPU.

  • That's because brands, cheap chinese ones, have taken over the mid-range market share. To put that into perspective, the Stylus 2 Plus costs twice as much as the Redmi 3s which has the same SD430 SoC besides having a couple of extra sensors like the Gyro, Infrared and Fingerprint (ubiquitous). It's closest competition is the recently launched Asus Zenfone 3 Laser. It has 32GB ROM and a Fingerprint sensor over the Stylus 2 Plus. Instead of launching the Stylus 2 with outdated SD410 SoC at 15k LG should've just launched the Stylus 2 Plus at that price. At 15k-16k this would've really been a competitive device. The reason why it is more popular in USA is because under carrier contract it sells for as low as 8k to as high as 16k. With, of course, the fingerprint sensor. By the time its price cools down, there would be better alternatives. To remain competitive LG should refresh it with a newer and more capble SoC to handle intensive tasks at Full HD resolution. Large screens need more resolution and higher resolutions need an SoC to handle that load. The SD430 just doesn't cuts it. Stylus is keeping it afloat.

  • purchased on 16 octo, very good phone, i have no experience of many more other similar phones,but it can be said camera seems to be at par with x play and j7 prime, i.e. very good camera, other experiences lateron as i get acquented with it little more ... but i have a que, despite being such a very good model why not its promotion or marketin in india, so surprising !!!

  • Well i think we are on the same boat😢😢😢

  • Agree under performance, should install Sd617, LG only good at flagship. Camera good but motorola g3 much better, but at least better than A5

  • No

  • 16MP/8MP version review: Best camera I have seen in a smartphone of this price segment in a very long time. It beats all of it's competitors, be it Oppo, Vivo, Gionee etc. with selfie-centric phones. Removable battery is a big plus. Screen is good enough though not as Vibrant as say Oppo. The octa-core processor is a bit of a letdown as its SD430 but the upside is that it'll probably get a few updates and the GPU is good. The stylus is fun to play with.... This phone is truly LG's wake-up phone in the mid-range market. They would have had an outright winner had they just included a fingerprint sensor. However, I believe they can still do well. Start marketing this stuff, LG....

  • When this phone release in Indonesia?

  • Can someone please inform me where on the camera can i lighten or darken the brightness of the picture soon to be taken.....i can't find how to.

  • CPU is about as good as Snapdragon 615, so read up on phones built on Snapdragon 615. GPU is better than SD 615 and is around the range of Helio X10 (PowerVR G6200), so it should be fine for most games at HD resolution.

  • No, it does not. 100% confirmed.

  • Does K535D (indian model) have fingerprint scanner ??? Please reply !

  • For the regular Stylus phone, the screenshot option is in the task bar, along with the options for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Just scroll it down and browse through the

  • Great phone....go get yours now.

  • Nice phone at the same time otg not support is very difficulty. And i have one doubt how to take screenshot in this phone

  • Not my first LG.... surely not my last.. Its a month now since I bought it... I was worried about the Battery life.... it's perfect takes me through my day of almost endless video streaming... calls and apps. Display is nice... camera is more than fine... No otterbox for it given the screen size... but any leather flip cover will do. For the price it's a great great steal... storage is a hiccup but other than that I am very happy with it.

  • If used on ATT, will updates be provided?

  • How to charge wirelessly ???

  • OTG not a big thing.. this set is good overall.

  • Completely agree. Looks like they were trying to hide these facts and push the inferior design fault by selling it relatively cheap! Stinks!

  • I was completely shocked when the service centre told me that the LG Stylus 2 Plus does not support OTG. How can that be when the earlier models can? Also i was not able to use the back up software downloaded from LG.com!! This is completely unacceptable!

  • I was completely shocked when the service centre told me that the LG Stylus 2 Plus does not support OTG when the

  • yes it does have.i have this device & its performing great!

  • Oops, just realised after typing below that the 'K535D' indeed lacks the fingerprint sensor. Sad, really. Must pass this one too then.

  • I'm wondering about the same. Amazon does not lists full specifications and LG's home site isn't very reliable, though it does NOT mention about the fingerprint scanner. I'm suspecting the 32GB version must be having it, not the 16GB. Still it's better to physically visit a brick 'n' mortar store and ask. However, GSMArena explicitly mentions that... 'K530F, K535D and K535N models have no fingerprint scanner' And besides, YouTube has barely any reviews to confirm the above.

  • Is LG Stylus 2 plus (k535d) indian model have fingerprint sensor..

  • LG is not for all those who buy Chinese phones and expect 16gb ram 1tb rom 1000 megapixel camera in a 100$ pricetag.

  • Blame google for app transfer.

  • Bought LG STYLUS 2 PLUS 3 days back.I knew it doesn't support OTG.But shocked see i can only use 16 gb ROM and i cannot move any apps to memory card.Lg support confirmed the same.For 21k no Otg no fast charger and no app transfer.very Bad.

  • It's really difficult to understand the logic behind choosing region specific specifications of this high demand mobile phone by LG

  • Its 4G

  • Malaysia model lacks fingerprints...so choose your devices wisely

  • I buy it in Malaysia in RM1299...($310-$330)..this phone is worth to buy...but thats my opinion...its good for me..5.7 ips quantum display

  • no otg support in the lg stylus 2 plus

  • Yes the fingerprint scanner is on the power on button

  • Where did you buy? And do you know what is the sar value for this device?

  • finger print scanner is there pls tell me ?

  • I love this phone...it has very good spec ...stylus pen..fingerprint...front flash...and the phones already come to Malaysia in RM1399 ($350)..good price...i already buy it 2 days ago...no lag...good screen and both camera...you will never regret to buy this phones...for me,this phone is very worth to buy...good job LG

  • It's testing with 3G, of course the phone is 4G

  • Amazing phone wit good camera and good battery as well as latest Os marshmallow

  • which is better LG Stylus 2 Plus or Galaxy Note 3, their prices are close

  • What about stylus pen is smooth note write on off screen how many page we fill

  • My first view in the phone: Firstly , the weight of this phone is very light , bigger display. Display is very good despite the PPI is not very high. I'm not sure why the low light is not very good at LG. Anyway , for the camera both front and back is quite good. Antutu performance around 30ish. I tried to play real racing 3 seems smooth. UI are smooth as well. I want to add more but is too long hahah

  • T-Mobile sells it.

  • This phone was just released this week in US (Houston TX). Beautiful phone........T-Mobile.

  • it won't be available in Africa. lg says

  • LTE capable

  • t mobile

  • it won't be available in Africa. lg says

  • where to buy lg stylus 2 plus in ny usa

  • damn, no lte (in usa)

  • Why lg why bring a substandard project like lg stylus 2 and keep away the real thing like lg stylus 2 PLUS away from Nigeria. We Know what is good you know

  • Dont Buy Samsung J7, lot of Problems and screen is very sensitive, once fallen down from pocket height then screen breaks.. worst phone, samsung charges 12,500 INR for replacement in INDIA.

  • They should integrate radios with the SIM cards. That way, changing countries would only require changing SIM cards and not changing phones

  • the problem with LG they will announce a phone and don't release it for quite some time. people end up going for alternative phones by the time they release it not many people buy it look at g5 sales now they are even cutting their stuff due to no profit. stylus 2 was launched in February and got released in June this long and they make a better version of the phone for only Korea other regions they cut the specs

  • im also waiting no word from lg. now I'm gonna go for galaxy j7 its far war better than this and its cheaper too except the screen resolution and gorilla glass. nd im in South Africa

  • It does have one it took me a minute to find it but it is

  • While I was driving a car ,my phone was in the shelf.I was shocked when noticed,that the screen was totaly cracked....never more lg!!!!!

  • There is one. It is the power button on the back. The option to set it up is in lock options. U have to set as many fp you want by placing your finger in different positions until fully scanned. Once thats done all you hv to do is line that finger up to the power button to unlock

  • this phone is ok picture's are ok low light sucks, finger print sensor is cool. ok phone

  • Good except in the case if battery life

  • i dnt understand how they say it will be released in June while we r in July are they counting backwards

  • They already released it, but not the LG stylus 2 plus in carriers. They announced the LG stylo 2 plus which is a lower spiced version of this one. If you want this exact one, you'll have to buy it in amazon or ebay

  • Hi how about its cameras?

  • There is no finger print sensors in this phone... Dissappointed aftr buying this phone.

  • LG we are already in July when will you release this LG stylus 2 plus phone????? Why all this delay when demand and expectation for it is high ..soon high? Am in Lagos Nigeria handbills want to buy this phone online or in stores asap. LG speak to us and Meta know what's happening please

  • MetroPCS has the stylus 2 plus but its not the 3gb ram 16mp cam and 32 storage

  • MetroPCS gets crap model, the MS550. Compared to the previous LG G Stylo, only the processor is an upgrade. Same storage, ram, screen size/resolution, similar camera. Full specs: Seriously. Cut back on screen resolution? That was one of the few selling points of the Plus model.

  • lg stylus 2 plus expect in June 2017

  • When will it be launch in India ? i am a great fan of LG phone . Most updated and very robust phones !

  • today is the last day of June still no word from lg clearly there is no lg stylus 2 plus i was looking forward to it guess ill move on

  • when is stylus 2 plus launch?

  • Hi there am in Love with the LG stylus 2 plus and I want to know when it will be available in Lagos Nigeria the screen is soon much better at 1080p and the fingerprint sensor is an advantage I prefer it and am ready to buy asap Please bring To Nigeria Urgently

  • @man of war Lol, i could only assume, you were one of the unlucky folks who may have purchased a faulty LG device at one time, but to say LG is terrible, is not even close to being accurate, as i own the LG Stylo, and consider myself a power user, stream, download, web surf, social media, all the time, and my phone is still running like a champ!! No issues here!!!

  • Which carrier will it be available for?

  • I don't have the actual phone yet, but I plan on purchasing it very very soon.ive seen the phone online,and I'm very impressed. I have the galaxy j7 now, but it doesn't compare to LG by a long shot, I've had the original Stylo and was impressed by that too. I like the extra features that it has,give it a try, and you can't go wrong.

  • great phone

  • lg is the best phone i ever used..if u do ur display in amoled no one can beat you.. lg has amazing

  • NOTHING new with this phone, I have had it for 3 years already. It's called Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Come on LG, get your shit together, bringing out a three year old phone spec as NEW is cheeky! You're in a competitive market. Compete!

  • LG Stylus 2 Plus for sure !

  • Sorry, I don't follow. LG gets a monthly surcharge on a locked phone? But they don't get a surcharge on a locked one? How do they track that? What if I put a SIMM from another phone in my new one. How can they track that?

  • actually considering that these companies get money from the service providers if it was 100% unlocked all the time, it would actually be more

  • In this day and age, why can't we just order a GSM phone from the manufacturer in Korea (or China), and then inset a SIMM card from our carrier, to whom we pay a monthly service fee? We pay for the SIMM card once, and swap phones as we wish. I bet it would cut 1/3 off the cost of the phone (or more).

  • Which one better, Lg Stylus 2 plus or Lg Vista 2 ? Please help thank you 😊

  • So this phone has a variant model that has three slots: two for SIM and one for MicroSD memory card. If so this is great. Other than a few BLU phones (Vivo XL being one) and Honor 5X, most phones ask you choose between 2x SIM and 1x SIM-1xMicroSD. I live in US and have both personal and work cell services from GSM providers. Being able to combined them into one phone and still have a third slot for extra memory to store large size movie files is just fabulous.

  • Does this have a rear facing speaker!

  • See the K-Seried

  • LG is the best, best battery backup n i will say best optimized phone maybe display is not AMOLED but still love LG

  • No way! LG Stylus 2 according GSMARENA cost 280 euro ($310), LG Stylus 2 "Plus" should be cost more. Maybe between $350-$400. LG can not make cheap cell phone anymore.

  • Why Snapdragon 430? It's already almost mid 2016 right now. It is just phablet 5.7" with stylus. If you using stylus almost everyday maybe should think about it. If not using stylus or just want to try it, forget it.The price will be not cheap, because the word "plus" that cost more.

  • Great product , great Brand

  • If they launch LG K535 within week in India then will buy it or else will go for Motorola Moto G4 Plus.Its very hard to guess now days but i think Next mobile would be of 5gb ram and then 6gb ram etc etc...more $$$ and then again $$$$$$ but i have only $$ then wife $$ then kid $$$ then ex frnds $$$$$$$

  • This phone is not bad at all! Ofc not as good as all Lg's flagships. And yoy man if hatred stop spamming you old troll -_-

  • Its lg bro, their phones are just terrible, suitable for those who use their phone for light use about 1 hour in a day

  • This comes with a pen LG G4 & LG V10 Dont have pen LG Logic!!!!

  • Why not Snapdragon 820 and 4 gb ram and minimum 10000 mah batery

  • at this price the 2016 device don't have : gyro sensor, usb otg, ust type c, bigger battery capacity resolution is to high for the GPU. better with 720p

  • What light sensor? Do you mean LED notification lights?

  • It has a weak CPU. Why not Snapdragon 625?

  • nice!,, good thing I did not buy the k10,, I hopes this k11 have a greater battery life,, somewhere between 2800 - 3000 is good enough already.

  • Its camera is beautiful but its front camera is midrange. Its internal memory is good.

  • Announce it already lg. Stop busting our chops. The peaple deserves this beauty

  • Its budget procesor, but price is 185 euro for k10 whit old snapdragon and i am woried abaut batery and i se its big, thin, lightweigt, expensive and beautiful in real life.

  • This phone might be better than tha j7 2016. If the battery is more than 3300 and the screen is bright.

  • I hoping it will be release soon. This june or late june.

  • 1080p in cell touch display 16mp f 2.2 lens rear 8mp f2.0 front Beautiful lg Life’s good This will out class samsung j series

  • Release it sooner LIFES GOOD. i like this phone. Hope the price is around 250USD

  • If its released this june or late in june im gonna buy it. Im choosing between the samsung j5 2016 and this if the screen brightness is unlike the lg k10

  • No phone released at that level is likely to be without LTE.

  • the issue on the k10 is the average battery, not so bright screen, and poor focusing camera. hope the k11 is better on those 3 aspects.

  • i like this phone but the samsung galaxy j5 2016 is already available in the philippines so im gonna go for it im not gonna wait anymore :)

  • Best option for you is Samsung J5 2016. But for your information LG K 11 has LTE Gorilla glass and light sensor.J5 2016 do not have light sensor. Enjoy your J5 2016.

  • franco 7XaM4 Wow. Hope it will be release soon in the philippines. But its not lte. But it has corning gorilla glass. The j5 2016 that im waiting for is lte but no corning gorilla glass. :( NETWORK Technology GSM / HSPA / LTE 2G bands GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - SIM 1 & SIM 2 (dual-SIM model only) 3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 4G bands LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800) Speed HSPA 42.2/5.76 Mbps, LTE Cat4 150/50 Mbps GPRS Yes EDGE Yes LOL DUDE :)
