Last year, the South Korean manufacturer tried making an LG Stylo 3 Plus stylus device. According to a new report, the company aims for a similar device called the “Q Note” this year. This information comes from a new trademark filing with the Korean Intellectual Property Rights Information Service (KIPRIS), registered on April 9, 2018. The trademark has been classified as the Cat 9, which includes smartphones, telephone displays, batteries, TV receivers, and wireless headsets.
The company started its Q line series of smartphones last year with the launch of LG Q6 and LG Q8. The smartphones were placed in the mid-range segment and were fairly popular. The next in line, Q7, is surrounded by rumors and speculations and is expected to launch soon. The new trademark hints that the company may be working on an expanded range of devices, which includes the new Q7 Note name. This will make the device an unofficial successor to last year’s Stylo 3 Plus and will likely be placed in the same mid-range pricing segment.
Currently, there aren’t any official images or details about the internal specs, though it’s expected to adopt an 18:9 aspect ratio display and take design cues from the LG G7 ThinQ flagship, which will be unveiled on May 2, which pushes the Q7 launch towards the end of May or early June. The Q7 may also adopt the “ThinQ branding”.
The Q7 Note will be joining the list of LG Stylus smartphones from the past, like LG G3 Stylus (2014), G Stylo (2015), G4 Stylus (2015), Stylus 2 (2016), Stylo 2 (2016) and will be competing with the Galaxy Note 9 which is rumored to come with a S-Pen.
