It’s September 30 and as promised, the LG G2 has made its debut in India. The company has taken the wraps off the smartphone at an event in New Delhi and has announced the official price for the smartphone. The 16GB base model will be available for Rs 41,500.
LG has been teasing the smartphone’s arrival for weeks now. The device is the latest flagship from the Korean conglomerate and it was announced globally back in August. Also, the phone has hit availability status in various locations such as the US and Europe. What sets the G2 apart from other smartphones is that the volume keys have been placed on the rear instead of the side. This portrays a clean look with no clutter on the sides.
LG has given the G2’s front a coating of Corning Gorilla Glass 3, beneath which, sits a 5.2-inch full HD IPS display. Also, there’s a narrow bezel on the sides of just 2.65mm. Over at the rear, a 13MP OIS camera allows videos to be recorded in 1080p FHD. The smartphone runs on Android 4.2 and it sports various enhancements such as Dual-Recording, KnockOn, Guest Mode, QuickRemote and more. The device also proffers Hi-Fi audio, and high performance hardware such as a Snapdragon 800 processor with Adreno 320 graphics and 2GB of RAM.
The 32GB LG G2 is officially priced at Rs 43,500. However, Saholic is selling the phone for just Rs 40,499. Flipkart is offering the 16GB handset on discount at Rs 40,490, while the high capacity version’s price here is the same as the MRP.
