BASKING RIDGE, N.J., Oct. 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Unleash your creativity with the LG Stylo 2 V smartphone, available tomorrow (Oct. 20) from Verizon. The Stylo 2 V gives makers and notetakers the ability to design, draw, sketch and write on its phablet-size 5.7" HD display whenever inspiration strikes.
The Stylo 2 V sets itself apart from the LG family by offering a large-screen smartphone at an affordable price. The display gives you an immersive video experience that's perfect for watching videos on go90 or capturing your child's first steps with the 13-megapixel rear camera. LG's convenient rear-key power button includes fingerprint-scanning for additional security and it lets you lock and unlock specific content. It also supports Android Pay for mobile payments.

The Stylo 2 V is the only LG smartphone to offer a stylus pen to easily scribble random thoughts without relying on a keyboard or touchscreen. Even better, a screen-off memo mode lets you quickly jot down ideas without turning on the display; perfect for when you're compiling a grocery list on the run.
The stylus pen has been redesigned with a smooth, ergonomic feel for a better user experience. It includes a thinner pen tip for enhanced performance and a new calligraphy setting that improves even the worst handwriting. The Stylo 2 V also alerts you when the display is off and the pen hasn't been returned to its slot, ending hours of aggravation caused by lost-stylus syndrome. Even more, when you slide the pen out of the stylus keeper it instantly launches a quick menu so you can access the features you need most.
