In most regions, the device will use an 8MP rear snapper with Color Spectrum Sensor and Laser Auto Focus, while select Latin America markets will get a variant with 13MP camera. The front-facing camera is a 5MP unit with Gesture Interval Shot.
Connectivity-wise, LG G4 Beat offers 4G LTE support along with Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1, NFC, and GPS with A-GPS and GLONASS. The handset measures 9.85mm thick and houses a 2,300 mAh removable battery
