LG G4 to arrive in India on June 19; LG G4c for sale in Europe

The LG G4c, the newly introduced mini version of the flagship, has now landed in Europe. The handset is available in the Netherlands and Italy for €248. For the same price, users in the U.K. can also pre-order it via retailers Carphone Warehouse and Handtec, which will have the units delivered by next week. 

In terms of appearance, the LG G4c looks a lot like the plastic flavor of the LG G4. Being the smaller version, it comes with a 5-inch display that renders a 720 x 1080 pixel resolution. Under the hood is a quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor, 1 GB RAM, and 8 GB expandable storage. 

On its rear is an 8-megapixel shooter and on its front is a 5-megapixel camera. The extent of its usage depends on its 2540 mAh battery and users will be delighted with the new Material Design with the new Android 5.1 Lollipop on board the handset. There is no word about a possible release in the U.S. 

Meanwhile, the standard LG G4 handset will arrive in India on June 19, the same day it touches down in Canada. The South Korea-based tech firm already confirmed via its LG India website that the handset will cost INR 51,500, which translates to around $800. 

Before LG made the flagship's arrival in India official, online retailer Infibeam already started selling the handset for a cheaper price of INR 50,000 ($780). However, not all the variants (the LG G4 comes in plastic and leather covers) were available there. 

The Android 5.1 Lollipop-laden device, which was officially released in April, comes with a formidable set of specs. It has a 5.5-inch display that generates 548 ppi pixel density. It has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor powering it up and a 3000 mAh battery keeping it alive. Its 3 GB RAM and its 32 GB storage should be enough to keep things going. The LG G4 also has a 16-megapixel rear-facing camera and an 8-megapixel front camera.
