LG G2 mini with 4.7 inch screen coming?

These days, almost every flagship phone has a companion mini model. And the LG G2 purportedly won't be the exception to the rule. According to a published report, an LG G2 mini is in the works, although it could have a different name by the time it launches. The screen on the mini version of the device is expected to be 4.7 inches as opposed to the 5.2 inch panel on the full-sized model.

Similar to the rumored Sony Xperia Z1s, the LG G2 mini might be smaller in size, but most of the specs will not change from what is on the full-sized version of the phone. While it is unknown whether the 4.7 inch panel will offer 720 x 1280 resolution, or 1080 x 1920 resolution, the LG G2 mini is expected to offer the same 2GB of RAM and quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU as seen in the original model.

The LG G2 mini, or whatever the device will be called, could be introduced during next month's CES 2014 in Las Vegas. Since this is pure speculation at this point, we'd suggest that you take this with a grain of salt. But just because it is wise to be skeptical, it doesn't mean that you should rule out such a device from appearing at Las Vegas next month.
