The LG G4 is slowly taking over the globe, with a date already set for its much-awaited release in Canada. The flagship, which was made available in the U.S. back in April, will be up for grabs in the region on June 19 via carriers Bell, Rogers, TELUS, Videotron, and WIND Mobile.  

There is still no word about the pricing but it is expected that buyers in Canada will be able to get it for $199.99 with contract and $699.99 without contract. Also, they can choose between two flavors — one dressed in black leather and the other dipped in metallic grey. 

Meanwhile, the LG G4 is already available in India without the South Korea-based manufacturer making it official. Online retailer Infibeam has already put the device on offer for Rs. 50,000 ($780) and gives buyers the chance to save Rs. 3,000 by using the coupon "STRIKE3000." 

Infibeam has the leatherback version and also has orange and black variants in stock. Getting a metallic finish back cover will cost Rs. 2,000 ($31) and users can take advantage of the free one-time screen replacement, which usually costs Rs. 6,500 ($101), from the retailer. 

The LG G4 comes with a 5.5-inch Quad HD Quantum display boasting a 1440 x 2560 pixel resolution and an impressive 538 ppi pixel density. It utilizes a 64-bit six-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor and 3 GB RAM for power. It has 32 GB of expandable storage ready as well. The LG G4 uses a 3000 mAh battery unit that can last for 20 hours of talk time, and runs the new Android 5.1 Lollipop.

The handset can take great photos with its 16-megapixel camera on the back that has optical image stabilization and high definition video recording support. There is a hefty 8-megapixel snapper on its front for selfie lovers to use to their heart's content. 

It is still unclear when LG will officially release its flagship in India. For now, there's Infibeam for those who want to get their hands on the LG G4 as soon as possible.
