LG G2 Android 4.4 Update to Roll Out this Month
The LG G2 Android 4.4 update will start rolling out this month.
The company posted a message on its South Korean website this week announcing that it will be released in the country in Dec. and will launch elsewhere early next year.
The device was originally expected to get a taste of KitKat in France in either Nov. or Dec. Now it seems that will not happen until the beginning of 2014 with late Jan. being the earliest.
LG could be announcing a mini version of its G2 smartphone at CES next month.
A Greek gadget site known as Techblog stated that the mini variant of the handset is in the works and also revealed some of the specs for it such as a Snapdragon 800 CPU with 2GB of RAM and a 4.7-inch display at 720p.
The regular LG G2 measures in at 5.2-inches. The screen size could be a bit intimidating for those looking to purchase a compact device. The 4.7-inch screen is not that much of a reduction, but it could help the company to sell more handsets due to it taking up less space in an owner's pocket.
LG has not confirmed the mini G2 at this time so all of this information should be taken with a grain of salt.
The LG G2 is available on AT&T and Verizon. It was officially released in the fall of this year and features similar specs to the company's Google flagship, the Nexus 5.
The G2 features some impressive specs including a 5.2-inch full HD display, a 13-megapixel rear camera, 2GB of RAM, a microSD slot, a 3,000mAh battery, on screen navigation keys, and Android 4.2.2 with LG's custom skin. The LG G2 will also be the world's first worldwide-launching smartphone running the Snapdragon 800 processor.
