Between the various unofficial prices we’ve been hearing of and the MRP for the LG G Pro Lite dual, stands a fair deal. LG has announced Rs 22,990 as the cost of its ‘Galaxy Note’ for the masses, while an online retailer in India is willing to vend it for Rs 3,000 less, that’s Rs 19,990.
Even before the South Korean company’s answer to the Note (or mid-priced phablets, if you please) was announced early this month, the rumors had begun. It was supposed to be a cheaper option to the Optimus G Pro and wouldn’t have said no to some friendly sparring with the Xperia C or Galaxy Grand Duos.
But the idea of a stylus pen hidden within the chassis is one that screams Galaxy Note so loud, most would find it hard not to think of the Samsung phone that started the phablet trend. Before the G Pro Lite’s official price for India could be revealed, there was word that it would sell for around Rs 20,000 and then Snapdeal posted a lower tag of Rs 18,300 for it.
