"Smartphone manufacturers cannot ignore this growing segment of consumers who want the best balance of looks, features, performance and, of course, price," he said.
"The LG G3 Beat represents our commitment to the mid-tier smartphone market that demands mature technology, proven branding, great innovation and attractive price, all in a single device."
Some of the noteworthy specs of the LG G3 Mini include:
- A 5-inches 1280x720 resolution screen
