LG appears to be following on the footsteps of other device makers, making its next flagship phone water and dust resistant.
According to a news report by South Korean publication ETNews, the electronics giant's next flagship phone, LG G3, would be both water and dust resistant. LG is expected to launch G3 smartphone in June this year. The device is said to have display resolution of 2560x1440p, run on a 64-bit processor and 16MP rear camera.
The rumour comes days after a report by Gizmodo Germany that claimed that Nexus 6, Google's next flagship phone, will be a "lightweight version" of the LG G3. It is speculated that Google may opt for a lower camera and screen resolution. Nexus 6 may have an 8 or 13MP rear camera and 1920x1080p resolution (just like Nexus 5).
Sony was one of the first device makers to make its flagship phones water and dust resistant. Interestingly, Samsung has also made its flagship smartphone, Galaxy S5, water and dust resistant.
