LG Stylo 3 heads to Virgin Mobile and Boost Mobile 4

Virgin Mobile and Boost Mobile, the two prepaid carriers owned and operated by Sprint, are getting a new addition to their respective lineups.

The Stylo 3 is more than just another budget-friendly piece of plastic made for customers on prepaid plans. It's an LG-made phone announced earlier this year that features a spacious display, productivity-focused software, and an interactive stylus. Both carriers are selling it starting today.

Key specifications:

5.7-inch HD (1280×720) IPS LCD display
Qualcomm Snapdragon 435
2GB of RAM
16GB of internal storage (w/ microSD card slot)
13MP / 5MP cameras
3200mAh battery (removable)
Android 7.0 Nougat

Maybe the biggest selling point for this phone is the included stylus. It allows users to quickly draft notes, draw pictures, and doodle aimlessly. LG included much of its useful software on the Stylo 3, too. This includes Comfort Mode for lessening strain on your eyes, Screen-Off Memo for quick access to a digital notepad, and Capture+ for writing on screenshots. Clearly you're getting a good value out of the phone's hardware and software.

Customers with Virgin Mobile and Boost Mobile can purchase LG's Stylo 3 today for $179.
