LG announces pricing details for the G4

Yesterday, three major operators in South Korea, SK Telecom, KT and LG U+, launched a pre-order campaign, in which a select number of early-adopters could reserve themselves an LG G4 for $825. However, the price of the device sparked a plethora of questions from potential customers all over the world as to why it was so expensive, seeing as the 32GB Samsung Galaxy S6 retails for $795.

Earlier today, an LG Electronics representative shed some light on the matter in an exclusive interview with ETNews. According to the spokesperson, the price of the G4 hasn’t yet been set in stone, but it’s expected to be somewhere in the region $800-900. This is because the handset is considered to be more of a Galaxy S6 Edge competitor as opposed to the S6, due to its improved camera, higher build quality and a real leather backplate.

In terms of specifications, the G4 packs a state of the art 5.5-inch Quantum display with a resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels, a 1.8GHz Snapdragon 808 hexa-core processor, 3GB of RAM, Adreno 418 graphics, 32GB of internal memory (expandable up to 128GB via microSD), a 16-megapixel rear-facing camera equipped with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), a dual-tone flash, an 8-megapixel front-facing shooter and a 3,000 mAh battery.
