Bring your own device, more commonly referred to as BYOD, has become a popular system at many workplaces, but along with its benefits, it also brings its own troubles, something many have offered various solutions for. LG has joined these ranks, today unveiling its LG Gate, an enterprise-level platform for businesses aimed specifically at BYOD […]

As the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 appears on US-shores we’ve seen talk of not quite on-the-level benchmark boosting by the likes of what, at first, would seem to be the manufacturer of the smartphone. This report originates with Ars Technica where they suggest that the smoking gun is the fact that this smartphone brings up […]

In terms of clues leading up to the launch of a product, it would seem that an overly abundant amount of photos, specifications, and business moves by Google have lead the way to the Nexus 5 this past month. What we’re seeing today, here on the first of October, is a single photo that lends […]

Earlier this year LG announced the LG Optimus G Pro and is seems that LG could be working on a dual-SIM version of the handset which could be known as the LG G Pro Lite Dual, whose name we feel could have been much shorter. While the specifications of the device remain unknown, it is expected to be a slightly less powerful version compared to the original LG Optimus G Pro, hence the “lite” moniker. It is expected to support dual-SIMs, and according to the folks at Hi-Tech.Mail.Ru, the phone could also come with a stylus which would play nicely with the phone’s alleged 5.5” display.
We’re not sure if this device was created to compete with the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, although if it were, its specs would not be a fair comparison, although it could be a cheaper alternative for those who want a large smartphone with stylus support. No word on pricing but the LG G Pro Lite Dual is rumored for a release this October and will be released in Russia, but no word on whether it will be a Russian-exclusive, or if it will eventually see a release in other parts of the world, but at the same time we expect there are other devices other there that could serve as a decent alternative.

Somewhere out there, someone is probably waiting for a more affordable LG Optimus G Pro, and if the LG G Pro Lite Dual turns out to be real, then their wish might soon be granted. The phone will reportedly boast dual-SIM support and retain the size of its predecessor’s 5.5-inch display, but it’ll have a 960 x 540 pixel resolution instead of full HD. It’ll understandably be equipped with other lesser specs, including an unspecified 1GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, a 3,140mAh battery, an 8-megapixel rear camera and 8GB of internal storage that’s supplemented with a microSD card slot. According to the Russian website that first reported the leak, the Android 4.1.2 phone will be available in the Eurasian country in October for $400 unlocked, which just happens to be cheaper than the Galaxy Mega. Obviously, you’ll have to shell out for the more expensive Optimus G Pro if you want better specs, but at least this one comes with a stylus.

LG Gate to tackle enterprise smartphone security with encryption, VPNs and more
Posted in: Today's Chili
Samsung chose to name part of its enterprise smartphone security suite after an Army post, but LG’s going for something entirely more generic: Gate. The company’s solution appears to work much like JK Shin and Co.’s, safeguarding both private and business data as they coexist on a phone, allowing outfits to use a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) setup. By wielding Gate, users can encrypt their hardware’s data, use a VPN and make the lives of IT departments easier thanks to mobile device management features. It’s not clear the software will be offered gratis, but it sounds like it’ll be available just in time for the G2’s trip stateside.
