South Korean mobile phone maker LG Electronics is gearing up for the launch of its LG G Flex smartphone on the US market, and leaked photos of the device appear set to confirm that.

The handset is expected to be released through wireless carriers AT&T, T-Mobile, and Sprint, yet no specific info on when that might happen has been provided as of now.

Today, however, enthusiasts can have a look at the LG G Flex models for AT&T and T-Mobile, courtesy of a leaked photo that infamous leaker @evleaks has published online.

Last month, the same person brought to the web a leaked photo with the Sprint variant of the smartphone, only weeks after he unveiled LG’s plans for launching the phone in the US.

When launched on AT&T, the LG G Flex will sport model number D950, while being set to land at T-Mobile as D959. On Sprint, it will be released as LS995.

All three models look the same, with no carrier logo on the front, though they could feature these marks on the back plate.

While there’s no telling on when LG and its partner carriers will bring the device to the United States market, it appears that there will be no changes in hardware specifications from the already announced model.

The handset was unveiled with a 6-inch touchscreen display that can deliver am HD (720 x 1280 pixels) resolution, as well as with a 2.26GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor inside.

The mobile phone features 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory, while packing a 13-megapixel camera on the back, and a 2.1MP front camera for video calling.

The specifications list of this device also includes LTE connectivity, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0, built-in GPS receiver, and the usual set of sensors. LG G Flex runs under Google’s Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean operating system, but it should be updated to a newer platform release in the not too distant future.
