Many leading smartphone makers have released 'mini' versions of their flagship smartphones which are actually midrange handsets featuring reduced size and limited features. A sure way to profit from the shine of their popular devices, while selling cheaper and less powerful models. LG has gone this route by revealing the LG G2 mini which is a smaller 4.7-inch (960 x 540 qHD) screen variant. The mini retains the shape of the LG G2, the 'innovative' rear button and the knock to unlock as well as the Guest Mode features. That's about all it inherits from its superphone brethren. It runs on a Qualcomm quad-core processor (same as the budget Moto G's), has 1GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel rear camera, 8GB of onboard storage and Android 4.4 KitKat. The LG G2 mini is slated for a Mobile World Congress reveal and so we'll get more information on pricing and availability then.
