LG’s G Vista is one of the most leaked smartphones ever to hit the market. We’ve already seen a full list of specifications, software screenshots, benchmark results, body shots and an estimated launch date — so it comes as no surprise that Verizon has today unwrapped the latest, affordable, super-sized handset to join its rapidly-growing lineup of LTE-enabled devices.

If recent leaks and rumors are anything to go by, it certainly looks like LG has joined forces with Verizon Wireless in order to develop and launch a brand new, affordable, super-sized smartphone — entitled the LG G Vista. The handset is expected to be announced tomorrow, July 31, and should retail for $499 off-contract, or $99 on any of Big Red’s 2-year tariffs.

That seems to be the question HTC asked itself when planning its next Windows Phone offering, which is said to be almost identical to the One M8 but without Android, according to new reports. It even has almost exactly the same name, but instead of being labeled just the “One M8,” it’s the “One M8 with Windows.”
