LG today announced the G3 s, a smaller and more affordable version of the company’s new G3 flagship phone.
The phone shares the same front and back design as the G3, but in a smaller, lighter body that’s 1 mm thicker.
The display shifts from 5.5 inches to 5.0 inches with 720p resolution. The processor steps down to a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 chip. The camera steps from 13 megapixels to 8, although it keeps the laser focusing system. Memory, battery, and Wi-Fi specs have been similarly scaled down.
It does retain a memory card slot, removable battery, LTE, and NFC. The new model launches tomorrow in Korea as the G3 Beat, and “in the weeks that follow” in Europe as the G3 s.
Pricing and US availability were not announced.
