LG's next flagship was just spotted going through the FCC and the document certifies three different variants headed to the US. The model number is LM-G820UM, LM-G820TM, and LM-G820QM. We assume the first two models are US unlocked and T-Mobile variants, respectively based on the penultimate letter in the model number. There's another number ending in "QM" which could be destined for CDMA networks like Sprint and Verizon. Of course, this is purely speculation because another model is spotted as LM-G820V. Is this perhaps the Verizon variant? Source:... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://bit.ly/2TSPHhQ via IFTTT

Apple is apparently gearing up to add a touch of color to its iPhone XS and XS Max models. According to a new rumor, the company is bound to launch its two current flagship phones in red in China, by the end of this month even. Unlike Apple's past red smartphones, these will not carry PRODUCT(RED) branding - which isn't surprising because even the red iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 devices sold in China didn't use that, although internationally they were known as PRODUCT(RED) models. Instead the official name of the color variant for the XS and XS Max will be China Red. Pricing shouldn't be... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://bit.ly/2tom2BD via IFTTT
