After official news that the LG G4 was ready to start its global rollout, the smartphone has now gone up for pre-order in the UK.
Retailer Carphone Warehouse has started taking pre-orders for the LG G4 ahead of the handset's commercial launch on May 28, offering the device with a range of pricing options with Vodafone, EE, and O2 in the UK.
The LG G4 is the company's latest flagship smartphone for 2015, packing high-end specs and features all around, with a focus on camera and design. LG has launched both genuine leather and non-leather variants of its handset. The leather version comes in black and brown color options, with the black model exclusive to Carphone Warehouse in the UK. The non-leather version comes in a titanium gray finish.
As a reminder, the new LG G4 flagship comes with a 5.5-inch QHD display (2560 x 1440 pixels), a hexa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor, 3GB of RAM, Adreno 418 graphics, 32GB of internal storage capacity, microSD support for additional memory of up to 128GB, a 16-megapixel rear camera with an impressive f/1.8 aperture, an 8-megapixel front shooter, and a 3,000 mAh battery. On the software side, the smartphone ships with Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the box.
When it comes to pricing options for the UK, the LG G4 will be available for free and £35 per month on a two-year contract with Vodafone, which includes 1000 minutes, unlimited texts and 1GB of 4G data each month. Vodafone also offers the device on a plan with 2GB of 4G data for £0 down and £40 per month. This option makes the LG G4 more affordable than the iPhone 6 and the Samsung Galaxy S6. The same deal on EE, meanwhile, costs £9.99 upfront and £31.99 per month. EE is also offering the handset for £40 upfront and £36.99 per month, with unlimited minutes and texts and 5GB of 4G data. Getting the LG G4 on O2 implies a £20 upfront charge and £36 per month, which will bring users unlimited texts and minutes and 3GB of 4G data.
Moreover, the first 400 customers to pre-order an LG G4 from Carphone Warehouse will also receive a free LG P7 Music Flow Bluetooth Speaker, which normally costs £129. Carphone Warehouse expects to start shipping pre-orders on May 28.
