The LG G4 could come with a special stylus

Phablets are a dime a dozen nowadays but one of the ways that Samsung is able to separate the Galaxy Note series from the rest is with its focus on the included stylus. If a recent patent filing is any indication, it appears as though LG wants to use this same strategy with its upcoming LG G4 flagship smartphone. 

One of the unique features of the Samsung Galaxy Note series is that it comes with the S Pen and has its software optimized and designed around the stylus, giving the stylus more capabilities than just a pointing and writing tool. Back in 2014 we saw LG attempt something similar with a device called the LG G3 Stylus. The handset wasn’t particularly impressive in terms of hardware and we supposed to a certain extent it was like a low-mid range version of the LG G3. Now according to recent trademark applications, it seems that LG might have something similar planned for their upcoming LG G4 in the form of the LG G4 Stylus.
