LG G2 mini

Hands-on at MWC 2014: LG's not so mini 'mini' falls short of expectation

The LG G2 mini is a handset that could have, and should have wowed. Instead I’ve been left frustrated with yet another leading manufacturer that has failed to make a truly representative flagship spinoff at a size that is appealing to the masses. After...

LG G2 Mini review

The LG G2's little sibling

Amazing battery life ; Excellent build quality ; MicroSD expansion slot

Low resolution screen ; Slightly too expensive ; Some gimmicky software

With the G2 Mini, LG provides most of the experience of the G2 but in a smaller and cheaper package. It has equally amazing battery life and most of the software enhancements but sacrifices on screen quality.

The LG G2 mini might be called mini, but for many it is anything but when you look at the specs. That's okay though, because surprisingly, as if it was

LG G2 mini review

As is typical, the LG G2 mini has come along a number of months after its bigger brother. However, because the LG G3 is about to launch, the LG G2 has come down in price significantly. You can get it for £279 at the time of writing which means the G2...

The G2 mini is almost exactly what you'd expect it to be. A smaller of the flagship G2 but the build quality and specs take a serious dive. The saving grace is a decent camera but it's worth paying the extra for the now heavily reduced G2. If your...

LG G2 Mini review

The LG G2 seriously impressed the whole CNET team with its brilliant screen, its lightning fast processor and its great camera. As nearly all of its rivals have done, LG has paired its flagship with a smaller version, for those not willing to shove a...

The LG G2 Mini is more affordable than its flagship namesake, it has good battery life and a decent camera.

It has a lower resolution screen than the Motorola Moto G (which costs less than half the price) and its processor doesn't provide much power.

Although it bears the same "G2" name as its big brother, the LG G2 Mini is watered down in every respect. Its screen has a disappointingly low resolution, its processor doesn't put up much of a fight and it has an 8- rather than 13-megapixel camera....

LG G2 mini hands-on review

A few month after launching the impressive G2 smartphone, LG has followed the trend of launching a smaller and cheaper version at MWC. The price hasn't been announced yet but the smartphone will no doubt be more affordable than its bigger brother –...

The G2 mini is almost exactly what you'd expect it to be. A smaller and lower spec version of the flagship G2. The phone looks and feels nice but we're waiting for the price. A key competitor is the Xperia Z1 Compact which is a mini version without the...

LG G2 Mini review

HANDS ON REVIEW: LG shrinks the G2 into a smaller 4.7in smartphone, but also reduces the specifications. Does it make it less of a phone as a result?

With no official price yet either, we think LG will have to make it significantly cheaper than the G2 in order to keep it in consideration.

LG G2 Mini Hands-On, Initial Review: Not Your Typical Mini

We go hands on with LG's G2 Mini! It's a formula that we're all familiar at this point: manufacturer makes flagship, sales for said flagship soar, manufacturer makes a smaller version of said flagship with lower specs, slaps a mini at the end of the...

MWC: LG G2 Mini hands-on review

It's not exactly mini, but impresses with largely vanilla Android 4.4 Kitkat

The LG G2 Mini doesn't sound like much on paper, and it certainly doesn't seem like a 'mini' handset. However, we were impressed with the device during our hands-on time with it at MWC, thanks to its nearly untouched Android 4.4 Kitkat mobile operating...

MWC 2014: LG G2 Mini hands-on review - latecomer to the mini party

Scaling down their flagship smartphones has paid dividends for the likes of Samsung and Sony, and now LG is getting in on the act with the launch of the LG G2 Mini.
