"Gently curved" LG Magna priced at   $260, now available in India


While everyone is expecting LG to officially unveil its G4 flagship (this will happen tomorrow, on April 28), the company recently started selling another new smartphone :

The LG Magna. 



Announced back in February, the Magna is a mid-range handset that runs Android 5.0 Lollipop and has a "gently curved" design, as LG puts it. Only the back of the device is curved, so its display - a 5-inch 720p one - is still flat. The smartphone further offers an 8 MP rear camera, a 5 MP front-facing camera with Gesture Shot (for quick selfies), 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of expandable internal memory, a 1W speaker, and a 2540 mAh battery. The Magna is powered by a 1.3 GHz quad-core processor (LG doesn't provide more details about this, but we're probably talking about a MediaTek chipset here). 



Currently, the LG Magna seems to be available only in India, where it costs 16,500 INR (about $260). In the near future, the new smartphone will likely be released in other markets, though for now we don't know if it's going to be available in North America
