Comparisons Featuring LG G2 mini LTE (Tegra)
Short Review
- The LG G2 mini LTE features a compact design with dimensions of 129.6 x 66 x 9.8 mm and a lightweight build at 121g, available in Titan Black, Lunar White, Red, and Gold.
- Its 4.7-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 234 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Powered by the Nvidia Tegra 4i chipset and a quad-core 1.7 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU, the phone delivers decent performance for everyday applications, supported by 1GB of RAM.
- The 13 MP rear camera captures images with autofocus, and it can record video at 1080p at 30fps, while the 1.3 MP front camera is suitable for basic selfies.
- The 2440 mAh battery provides sufficient power for daily use but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
- Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat) with LG's Optimus UI, the software experience is straightforward, though somewhat dated.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and NFC, but it does not support 5G.
- The phone does not feature stereo speakers and includes a standard headphone jack for audio output.
- Overall, the LG G2 mini LTE is a compact device with essential features for users seeking a simple smartphone experience.
