LG G2 mini

LG G2 mini benchmark listing spotted, revealing purported specifications

lg-g2-black-colour-model-635.jpg

LG has been rumoured to be working on a mini-variant of its flagship smartphone, the G2, believed to be dubbed LG G2 mini. The rumoured device has now allegedly been spotted at a benchmark listing.

The LG G2 mini's alleged GFXbench listing surfaced online via Webtrek, which also claims that the mini-variant of the LG G2 will launch at CES 2014.
According to the leaked benchmark listing, the alleged LG G2 mini will have model number LG D-410, and would be powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor with Adreno 305 GPU, contrary to an earlier report that suggested the smartphone would run on a Snapdragon 800 chipset.
Further, the listing claims that the alleged LG G2 mini will feature a 4.7-inch display with a resolution of 540x960 (qHD) pixels, which can be considered a huge fall from G2's full-HD display.
Notably, the alleged LG G2 mini is also seen running the latest Android OS version, KitKat, which is said to be releasing for the LG G2 by Q1 2014.
An earlier report had indicated 2GB of RAM for the alleged LG G2 mini, however, it also suggested that the name LG G2 mini is not the official name and could be changed when launched.
Unfortunately, there has been no word on the design of the alleged LG G2 mini, whether it would also feature the power buttons and the volume rocker on the back of the phone, like the G2.
LG might launch the rumoured LG G2 mini at CES 2014, as there have been reports suggesting that the sales of LG G2 have been below expectations. At the time of the report, LG had reportedly sold around 600,000 units of the G2 in South Korea since its launch; internationally the South Korean major sold about 2.3 million units, while the company had set a sales target of 3 million for the G2 globally. However, there has been no official word on the launch of the alleged LG G2 mini.

iPhone 6 launched in May 2014

iPhone 6 launched in May 2014 with larger screen

 

Rumours of new iPhone and iPad models with screen larger than current ones have been doing the rounds for a while now. The latest report indicates that the large screen iPhone 6 may launch sooner than expected.

Digitimes reports citing their sources that the iPhone 6 release is planned for May 2014. The publication in its report says, "Apple is also rumoured to be planning a larger size iPhone for May 2014, using a 20nm processor manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company."
Digitimes doesn't give any more details on the specifications for the iPhone 6, except that the screen will be 'larger' than one seen on the current generation iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c. We have already seen multiple agencies reporting about the rumoured bigger 5-inch display in Apple iPhone 6.
Earlier, we saw DisplaySearch analyst David Hsieh say that Apple is testing two different screen sizes for its next iPhone. He suggested that the company is testing a 4.7-inch panel with 720x1280 resolution and a 5.7-inch display with full-HD 1080p resolution.
The latest Digitimes report also reignites rumours of an iPad 'pro' with a screen larger than one seen in the current generation iPad Air. It says that the company is looking to target North America's educational market with its larger screen iPad. The rumoured 12.9-inch Apple tablet is rumoured to release in October 2014.
Previously a Chinese publication PadNews (via Apple Insider) reported that Apple could launch the larger iPad (12.9-inch) in April with the 4K ultra-HD variant due in October 2014. The report said that the company is currently testing five different 12.9-inch iPad prototypes made by Foxconn. But it did not specify the resolution of the purported larger iPad models.
Earlier in August, Digitimes reported about Samsung also developing tablets with a 12-inch or larger display. The report said the sources believe that "vendors are trying to create a new market segment to get away from competition from small-size devices."
