The LG G3 Vigor is the U.S. version of the LG G3 Beat, which was released in Europe earlier this year. The phone shares a similar design to the flagship G3 smartphone, but comes with a more modest specification sheet. Think of it as a G3 Mini, without the now cliched name.

AT&T joins Sprint in selling the G3 Vigor

On September 26, AT&T will sell the G3 Vigor both online and in stores, with a no-contract price of $335. Choose to sign up for two-years, and the initial price drops to $50. There are two Next options, a $13.96 per month, 18-month plan, or pay $16.75 per month for 12-months. Like the recently announced Samsung Galaxy Alpha, AT&T is also offering the G3 Vigor with a $100 credit on your bill, provided you start a new Next contract online before the end of the month.

That’s not the only special offer either. G3 Vigor buyers can also grab a G Pad 7 LTE tablet for $1, plus a two-year contract, at the same time. AT&T says this will only be available for a limited amount of time, but hasn’t provided an end date yet.

Sprint launched the G3 Vigor on September 19. The G3 Vigor will sell for 24 monthly payments of $13 through Sprint Easy Pay, though if you prefer to buy products outright, the handset will cost $312.

LG G3 VigorHigh-end looks, mid-range specs

While the G3 Vigor is certainly similar to the G3 in more ways than one, it’s still a mid-range phone underneath. The most notable difference is the display, which measures 5-inches and has a 720p resolution. This is a far cry from the G3’s Quad HD display, but more than enough for most, everyday tasks. Powering the device is a 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor coupled with 1GB of RAM to handle any multitasking you might throw at it.

Also on deck are 8-megapixel and 1.3-megapixel rear-facing and front-facing cameras, respectively. LG threw in a soft light for the front-facing camera to brighten up selfies, while the rear-facing camera gets the G3’s laser auto-focus. You’ll have 8GB of internal storage to save anything you wish, though memory is expandable up to 32GB through the G3 Vigor’s MicroSD card slot.

The G3 Vigor will also feature the G3’s Knock Code functionality, as well as a laundry list of features brought over from the G3 Vigor’s bigger sibling. Finally, the G3 Vigor will run Android 4.4.2 KitKat and supports Sprint’s enhanced LTE network, Spark, plus HD Voice on AT&T.

Our pros recommend the Motorola razr+, and now it’s on sale
The Motorola Razr 2024's selfie screen.

Remember the early days of cell phones when brands like Motorola reigned supreme? Believe it or not, Motorola never actually went away; its modern lineup of phones just tends to be dwarfed by bigger brands like Apple, Samsung, and Google. Motorola devices still pack quite the punch, though, and one of our favorite phones of 2024 is also one of the best phone deals this week:

For a limited time, when you purchase the unlocked version of the Motorola razr+ on Amazon, you’ll only pay $800. At full price, this phone sells for $1,000. We tested this smartphone close to a year ago, and our reviewers had this to say: “The Motorola Razr Plus is the best flip phone foldable I've ever used. Between the unmatched cover screen, stunning hardware, and powerful specs, there's just so much to like.”

I learned 4 things that will change my photography forever

I take a lot of photos of cars. Whether it’s one of mine, a car in a showroom, cars at shows or meets I attend, or even cars when I’m in a different city. I do have a bit of an obsession. However, I’m not at all sure I am very good at taking photos of cars, as I usually end up taking the same old shot and struggle to think more creatively.

When a design-led electric car was loaned to me for a week, I decided it was time I addressed the problem head-on. I ended up learning plenty, but four key pieces of advice I was given left the biggest impression — and will change the way I take photos of cars in the future.

Apple’s plans for a Siri evolution keep getting pushed into the future
Summoning Siri on an iPhone.

The biggest takeaway from Apple’s splashy WWDC event earlier this year was the next evolution of Siri in the age of AI. Unfortunately, many of those promising upgrades are yet to arrive for the masses, and whatever’s already available isn’t really groundbreaking.

The road ahead doesn’t look too gloomy, even though salvation still seems far away.
