LG had first unveiled the G2 3G version in August last year, and it later was launched in India at Rs. 41,500. The 4G LTE version sports same specifications as that of the present LG G2 available in market, apart from the additional 4G LTE support.

The LG G2 comes with a unique design that features the power buttons and the volume rocker at the back of the phone, below the rear camera, instead of the sides of the phone. It also comes with bezels as thin as 2.65mm.

In February, LG had also unveiled the compact version of the LG G2, called G2 mini, just before MWC 2014. The smartphone is the lighter version of the flagship G2 and features a smaller 4.7-inch IPS LCD display with a qHD (540x960 pixels) resolution.
