LG G4c (a mini G4) now available to buy in Europe
LG this week started selling the G4c, a new handset that was announced last month alongside the G4 Stylus.
At the moment, the LG G4c is immediately available only in the Netherlands, where it costs €248 (around $275). Customers in the UK can also order the smartphone thanks to retailers like Handtec and Carphone Warehouse, which ask similar prices, saying they can ship the device starting early next week.
The G4c looks a lot like the high-end LG G4 (the plastic variant, not the leather one), but it's smaller and doesn't offer too many advanced features. For example, the G4c comes with a 5-inch display with 720 x 1280 pixels, a quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor, only 1 GB of RAM, and 8 GB of expandable internal memory. The new smartphone also features an 8 MP rear camera, a 5 MP front-facing camera, and a 2540 mAh battery. Android Lollipop is pre-installed out of the box.
We don't know if LG intends to sell the G4c in North America, but we'll let you know when we find out.

While the slogan of the G4 flagship is "see the great, feel the great", the slogan of the G4c is "see the great, feel the compact." Makes sense, right?
