Rumor: LG G Flex 3 coming next March with 6-inch QHD glass, SD-820, fingerprint scanner

A new rumor regarding the specs for the next iteration of the LG G Flex series has been circulating. As usual, with a rumor of this magnitude, we suggest you quickly pop over to the kitchen pantry and score yourself a grain of salt to take this story with. According to this speculation, the LG G Flex 3 is going to be unveiled in March 2016. And yes, that is more than seven months away.

Because the phone won't be unveiled until March, the device is rumored to be powered by the Snapdragon 820 chipset. According to Chinese analyst Pan Jiutang, Qualcomm's new top-of-the-line chipset won't ship until December, and thus won't be found in any devices until the rumored March launch of the Xiaomi Mi 5. But this time frame does allow the Snapdragon 820 to be used in the LG G Flex 3. The currently available LG G Flex 2 happens to have the Snapdragon 810 chipset inside. One researcher has already said that there is no overheating threat with the newer chip.

The LG G Flex 3 is said to feature a 6-inch screen with a 1440 x 2560 resolution. 4GB of RAM will be inside, along with 32GB of expandable storage. The back to front camera combo weighs in at 20.7MP/8MP and a fingerprint scanner is embedded in the home button.

Obviously we have plenty of time for more leaks before LG reveals its intentions with the next LG G Flex model. Just make sure you have enough salt on hand.

Thanks for the tip!
