LG launched its latest G4 flagship a while ago with bells and whistles and received a lot of positive initial feedback.

The phone brings major pluses to the table, including a removable battery and a microSD card, two aspects that are missing from the Samsung Galaxy S6.

Anyway, it appears LG is not done with G4-related announcements. A Dutch retailer posted a listing of a device bearing the name of LG G4c with model number LG-G525N. The release date is set to May 12, but LG hasn’t said anything about a different smaller version of its G4 flagship. So could it be a mistake from the retailer’s part?

For the time being, you should take the information with a grain of salt, but it wouldn’t be out of this world if LG quietly decides to introduce a smaller, lite version of its flagship.

LG G4 Lite might be coming soon

Unfortunately, not much is known about the alleged mini version of the LG G4. The Dutch retailer only lists the name, model number and the price of $330 / €294. Given the fact that the G4 is bound to cost much more, it seems pretty obvious the LG G4c will come boasting lower specs and will appeal to the budget-sensitive crowd.

LG is probably trying to attract people who aren’t willing to pay premium to join the G4 family by offering a more toned-down version. But for the time being, we don’t really known how much lower the specs are going to go.

Other device manufacturers have been following this path. Sony, for example, has released the Xperia Compact lineup, which are devices with smaller displays and not so advanced specs.

We’ll have to wait until May 12 to see if LG does say anything about the Lite variation of its flagship.

LG G4 spec roundup

As for the fully fledged flagship, the G4 arrives with a hyper variant 5.5-inch IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen display that supports QHD resolution (2,560 x 1,440 pixels) and features Corning Gorilla Glass 4 coating.

The phone is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor with X10 LTE chipset, which accommodates a dual-core 1.8GHz Cortex A57 CPU and 1.44 GHz quad-core Cortex A53 CPU.

LG also throws in 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage (expandable via mircroSD card to 128GB). The Lite version will probably bring a 720p display, a lower-power processor and luckily 2GB of RAM.
