PRESS RELEASE
London, May 19, 2015—LG Electronics (LG) officially announces the G4c – the newest member to the G4 family. The smartphone will begin shipping to retailers around the world from this month. The competitively priced device shares many of the same high-end user experience features found in the LG G4.
As the smaller sibling of the LG G4, the 5.0-inch LG G4c offers many of the G4’s premium features and styling but in a more compact form factor.
The G4c features an 8MP rear camera and 5MP front-facing camera for high quality photos and portraits. Other popular LG exclusives such as Gesture Shot, Glance View and Knock Code™ make the G4c convenient, secure and fun to use.
“The G4c is a perfect example of what we mean by a premium smartphone experience without a premium price,” said Juno Cho, president and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “We are committed to offering consumers in fast-growing markets LG devices that not only deliver performance, but also look good while doing so. The G4c will surpass customers’ expectations of what an LG phone should be.”
