LG will reportedly be releasing its G3 offering a few days from now. The official teaser from the company suggests that the device will be featuring a Quad HD screen. As the hype around the device builds up, several leaked photos have also provided a sneak peak of what people expect. According to the images, LG may be planning on releasing a handset with a brushed metal black plate. Can it be a hit? 

Previously, the company announced its LG G2 handset in August. It appears LG wants to get ahead of its previous timeline announcing the release of the G3 on May 27. PC Advisor has given the Gold Award to the device noting its excellent features. The positive response over the LG G2 is sufficient enough to generate hype and high expectations over the G3. 

Once LG releases the G3, it will compete against smartphones such as the Sony Xperia Z2, Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8. The launch is imminent as LG has released invites for the G3 launch event. The launch event will be held across three areas: San Francisco, London and New York. Another launch event will happen in areas such as Istanbul, Seoul and Singapore a day after. 

"I'm writing to let you know that LG will be hosting an exciting event in London at the end of May to announce our next big global device after G2," PC Advisor quoted the release from LG.   

"With G2 being so well regarded, we have high expectations for its successor, as I'm sure you do as well. So to give our newest device a proper introduction in the presence of as many industry influencers as possible, we will be holding unveiling events in six global cities on May 27 and May 28." 

The leaked images of the device show LG G3 to feature a brushed metal black plate. However, sources also note that LG did not go for the real thing. Instead, the finish is a faux-leather that looks like metal. Other features of the device include 13MP camera, 5.5-inch Quad-HD display, 3GB RAM and Snapdragon 805 quad-core.
