The LG G4s will be finally called G4 Beat?

New variant of the G4, the LG G4s was sighted for the first time last week. Positioned as a mid-range smartphone, it could finally be launched under the name Beat G4. After presenting the G4 pen and G4c, LG would have a third variant of its flagship to reveal to us: the G4s . It should also be bigger and better equipped than the G4c, to position itself as an intermediary between the smartphone G4 and its compact version.

GFXBench, on last week, previewed that this LG G4s could finally get out as the G4 Beat. This is certainly what we are reported on Technodify from which information relates however conditional, since the site think there was 70% chance that the smartphone is launched under this name.

Its predecessor, the LG G3s was launched under the name G3 Beat in Asia last year. We think the manufacturer should proceed in the same way this year by launching this smartphone as the G4 Beat on the Asian continent, and G4s in the rest of the world.

Aside from that, we learn nothing more than we already knew. Let us recall that the LG G4 Beat is expected to come with 5.2 inch screen with full HD resolution, under which hides an octa-core SoC 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 1.4GHz and with 2GB RAM.

Coming to storage, it just comes with 8GB, but fortunately a MicroSD slot should enable it to add a memory card up to 64GB. Note also that an 8-megapixel sensor is part of the back of the camera and a 5 megapixel camera on the front face. Also known under the codename LG H735, this LG G4 Beat should go out in the latest version of the mobile operating system from Google, Android 5.1 ie Lollipop. For now however, we have no information about its price or on the date of formalization, but its presence on GFXBench proves that marketing is pretty close. Its launch could therefore take place before the end of the month.

LG G4s: the true successor of G3s launching in July

You find the G4 too big and expensive and G4c not well enough equipped? It seems that LG has a solution. It should take the name of G4s. The launch is scheduled for July. LG is one of the few manufacturers to have miniaturized its flagship this year. And even sometimes twice a day! According to Hi-Tech.mail , a new model should come soon to assist the G4c which was formalized in May. This would be the G4s. So it would be the true successor of G3s from last year, with some improvements this entails and the G4c, it has not made. Worse, it even ignores the laser autofocus.

In other words, the G4s occupy the middle of the range G4. This is particularly true for the display, as would be based for it on a Full HD panel of 5.2 inches. Side chipset, an octa-core 1.5GHz model is discussed. LG has a habit of providing Qualcomm, this model is certainly the Snapdragon 615 which just so happens between the Snapdragon 410 (G4c) and Snapdragon 808 (G4) in the depth of the catalog.

Unveiled last detail, the main camera is based on an 8-megapixel sensor. This is the same resolution as that offered by the smaller model. The G4s therefore incorporates definitely the same sensor. However, the visuals that accompany the report show that LG has accompanied autofocus laser larger model this time. The balance is respected.

For the rest, we will have to wait, but if the positioning is the same in the rest of the data sheet, we should at least to have 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory. The launch is expected in the second half of July. The price is not yet mentioned but LG has the intention to sell the G4s as a high-end model affordable. It should therefore be relatively low.
