The LG Vu 3 has been rumoured for a while now but the company has finally revealed the device officially, and as you can see from the image the device has a strange shape to it. This is down to the 5.2-inch display that comes at a 4:3 aspect ratio giving the device a more squarish feel to it.

The display has a resolution of 1280 x 960 and according to LG the shape of it improves readability as it has the same aspect ratio as A4 paper.

Camera wise the company has fitted a 13-meagpixel rear facing unit with LED flash and 1080p video capture at 30fps, while around the front is a 2.1-megapixel camera. There are also some rear speakers that are promised to deliver high quality 24 bit/192KHz audio.
