The LG G Pro release date and unveiling could take place at this year's Mobile World Congress next month.

With the festivities just around the corner, LG is expected to introduce the successor to its LG Optimus G Pro which will feature Android 4.4 KitKat out of the box, a full HD 6-inch display, a Snapdragon 800 CPU, and 3GB RAM.

The device is actually comparable to the Galaxy Note 3 that features similar specs. Not much else is known about the phablet at this time aside from the fact that it might run on LTE-Advanced networks.

The LG G Flex can be pre-ordered through AT&T starting today. There is no word on when the handset will actually ship.

AT&T will offer the device at $299 with a new two-year contract. The carrier will also sell it for $26.74 a month off-contract through its AT&T Nexus 18, and for $34.75 per month with AT&T Next 12.

The LG G Flex was recently announced for release through Sprint at the same on-contract price. It can also be purchased through the carrier's new Easy Pay program for a $150 down payment followed by 24 payments of $20 monthly.

Various promo videos for the G Flex have been released in the past few months revealing different features the device possesses including its ability to heal itself. It also comes with a flexible battery, flexible display and flexible chassis.

Other specs on the G Flex include a 6-inch 720p display, a 2.26GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM, a 13-megapixel rear camera and a 3500mAh battery.

It will also come with a button on the back which is a component that has been spotted in previous leaks. The backing on it is made from a "special protective film" has the ability to repair itself just minutes after it is scratched.
