We know LG is working on some hot Android handsets that will come out in 2015 and recent leaks from xda-developers have revealed that a high-end G4 model, and maybe even a G4 Note phablet, will be launched this year.

According to the leakers, the company’s phablet is supposedly even better than the G4 and is supposed to come with a Galaxy Note-style stylus. The device would compete directly against Samsung’s top phablet line and also against Apple’s own phablet, the iPhone 6 Plus.

The leaked images posted by a user identifying himself as a T-Mobile employee who’s testing a G4 with a stylus reveal the G4 Note will have some of the same characteristics of previous G-branded top devices, including slim side bezels and buttons on the back of the device. What looks like a stylus hole on the top side of the handset can also be seen.

Rumors revealed the G4 Note might also feature an all metal body, though build quality can’t be assessed at this time.

It’s not clear at this time when LG will unveil the G4 and G4 Note smartphones or whether the company will have two different high-end G4 versions in stores. Reports have said the company has pushed back the launch of the handset from March to April to avoid competition with the brand new Samsung and HTC handsets.

Images showing the alleged G4 Note smartphone follow below.
