Lava Agni 3 5G: Release date, new design, extra screen and action button

Lava has finally confirmed the launch date of the much-awaited Lava Agni 3 5G smartphone. The company plans to lift the veil of the new device on October 4 in India. While the exact specifications are yet to be confirmed, the official teasers already give a glimpse of some of the design features.
New design with triple camera and extra screen
According to the teasers, the Lava Agni 3 5G will feature a rectangular camera module with three lenses on the left side. On the right side of the module, you can see a free area which is reportedly meant to house an additional display. This screen will probably be used to display basic functions such as calendar, pedometer and others. This design is reminiscent of the solution used in the Xiaomi 11 Ultra, where the additional screen allowed quick access to important information.
An additional screen will be placed on the right side of the module.

Action button and new control layout
Besides the redesigned camera, the Lava Agni 3 has attracted some attention for some of the layout of the controls. The teasers show that the left side of the device houses the volume key, while the right side has another button in addition to the standard power button. This new button is reminiscent of the «Action Button» that was recently introduced on the iPhone. It will likely support customizable features, allowing the user to personalize their experience with the device.

Expected price of Lava Agni 3 5G
In comparison, the Lava Agni 2 5G, which was launched last year, had a price tag of 21,999 Indian rupees (about $263). Therefore, it is likely that the Lava Agni 3 will have a similar price tag, making it a competitive offering in the mid-price 5G smartphone segment. The presence of features like OLED display with high refresh rate, triple camera with OIS and an additional screen will make the Lava Agni 3 stand out among the competitors in its price category.
The Lava Agni 3 will also have the ability to offer the best of both worlds.
Lava continues to follow its strategy of offering users innovative features at an affordable price. New features such as an action button and an additional screen make the Agni 3 a potentially interesting option for those looking for something unique in the smartphone market. With a release set for October 4, we’ll soon find out how successful this attempt will prove to be.
Agni 3 is a smartphone that will continue to offer a wide range of innovative features.
