LG G2 Mini to Be Announced at CES 2014 in January
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.
The similar Nexus 5 was introduced by Google and LG last month.
Specifications on the handset include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 processor running at up to 2.3GHz, a 4.96-inch LCD 1080p display, 2GB RAM, Adreno 330 GPU, 16 or 32GB internal memory, a 2300 mAh battery and an 8-megapixel camera with Optical Image Stabilization.
The basic design of the Nexus 5 was inspired by the G2.
