LG Stylus 2 is the first smarphone with DAB+ radio
LG had unveiled the 5.7-inch LG Stylus 2 handset during the Mobile World Congress in February. It has now announced an additional feature that was not announced back then. The LG Stylus will be the first device to feature DAB+ radio support.
The device will be available in Australia, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway and the UK . The device also comes with an exclusive app that allows owners to enjoy broadcasts right out of the box.
DAB+ is more efficient, providing better audio quality at lower bitrates and does not consume any data. LG says that broadcasters can make apps to enhance the listening experience with additional data pulled from the web.
Users will be able to access more radio channels with DAB+ than traditional FM. Unlike regular radio apps that stream large amounts of data, DAB+ radio provides excellent audio quality for free, as it uses no data.
The LG Stylus 2 comes with a 5.7-inch 1280 x 720 display and is powered by a quad-core 1.2GHz processor clubbed with 1.5GB of RAM. The device comes with 16GB internal storage and a microSD card slot support upto 128GB.
The device features a 13-megapixel primary camera, with 1080p video recording along with a 8-megapixel secondary camera. The device is powered by a 3,000mAh battery.
