LG is reportedly planning to launch a new mid-range phablet in the Unites States, which will be released on telecom operator Verizon. To be known as LG G Vista, the smartphone has been a part of the leaks for some time but the specifications were a mystery until now.

Thanks to @evleaks, we now know that LG G Vista will feature a 5.7-inch 720p HD display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor, 1.5GB of RAM, and Android 4.4.2. The phone will also come with 8MP rear camera, 1.3MP front shooter, 3200 mAh battery, 8GB of internal storage, and microSD card slot.

In addition, the G Vista will reportedly be 9.1mm thick and weigh 168 grams.

There is still no word on the release date but if the date in the leaked press render is any indication, we expect an announcement around early-August.  It is also unclear whether LG will be releasing an international variant of the phone for other markets.
