Unnamed Verizon LTE phone spotted in leaked photo
A photo leaked online by Engadget shows an LG-made smartphone made for Verizon that will support the carrier's upcoming 4G LTE network. The device is otherwise being called a high-end handset with Android. The phone will also have an HD camera that will be capable of at least 720p.
The photos show what looks like a front-facing camera and a large, mirrored (likely glass) display. Wi-Fi will be built-in as well, with two other logos that are hard to make out. One of them could be DLNA for multimedia streaming, as Verizon has usually embraced the local media sharing standard.
The phone is one of about five or six expected from the carrier next year. Ship dates or prices are yet to be revealed, but an unveiling is possible at Verizon's CES keynote in January.
