Bigger and smaller LG G4 smartphones unveiled

LG G4 Stylus and G4c

LG unveiled two new G4 smartphones on 19 May: the LG G4 Stylus, and G4c.

Both smartphones will ship to retailers in the next several weeks and throughout the month of May.

The LG G4 Stylus is a 5.7-inch handset, slightly larger than the 5.5-inch display found on the G4. As its name implies, the G4 Stylus includes a “Rubberdium” Stylus, which LG said allows for easy note taking and drawing.

Their smaller sibling, the LG G4c, features a 5-inch display and offers many of the G4’s premium features and styling in a compact form factor.

The G4 Stylus (G Stylo in North America and Korea) comes in both LTE and 3G configurations in Metallic Silver or Floral White.

The G4c is only available as an LTE model and will come in Metallic Gray, Ceramic White, and Shiny Gold.

Local pricing and participating carriers will be announced at the time of availability.

Key specifications of the devices in the LG G4 range are summarised in the table below.
