The company had confirmed the global roll-out of LG G3 Stylus in September, starting Brazil and then followed by other markets in Latin America, Central Asia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
Initially announced in August ahead of IFA, the highlight feature of the G3 Stylus is that it comes with a 'Rubberdium' stylus, a feature that is missing from the LG G3 (Review | Pictures) flagship.

The Android 4.4.2 KitKat-based LG G3 Stylus features UX derived from the LG G3. Some of the features of the G3-derived UX skin include the Touch and Shoot feature, which clicks images by tapping anywhere on the display to focus and shoot in one single step, and Gesture Shot in the camera allows users to open and close a hand in front of the lens to start a three-second countdown for the shutter.
Other features include Knock Code, which was first introduced on the LG G2 that allows users to unlock the phone by tapping a personalised 'knock' pattern on the display, and QuickMemo+, which is a blend of three utility apps - Quickmemo, Memo and Notebook apps. The G3 Stylus also features dual window feature that allows multitasking in two separate windows.
The LG G3 Stylus features a 5.5-inch qHD (540x960 pixels) display and is powered by a 1.3GHz quad-core (unspecified chipset) processor, coupled with 1GB of RAM. It comes with 8GB of inbuilt storage and supports expandable storage.
