The LG G Flex 2 was only announced last week but the handset is already up for pre-order with Amazon Germany. The German arm of the global online giant is offering the G Flex 2 for €599, which is substantially cheaper than the G Flex which originally went up for pre-order at €850 but the retailer hasn’t listed a shipping date.
It’s presumed that the G Flex 2 will also make it to Amazon UK sooner rather than later (you can actually order it on the German website for delivery to the UK) and in the UK, we’ve already heard that Vodafone and Carphone Warehouse are both set to stock the handset (the former has a six week exclusive at launch). However our sources tell us that Vodafone UK will offer the handset next month with a launch currently scheduled for two weeks before Mobile World Congress kicks off at the beginning of March.
The G Flex 2 is definitely the next generation of LG’s bendy flagship range as it features a smaller yet better resolution display – the G Flex 2 sports a 5.5 inch 1080p P-OLED curved display compared to the 6 inch 720p display on the original G Flex. The G Flex 2 is powered by an 64-bit octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor with 2GB RAM, 16GB internal storage and a microSD card slot allowing up to 128GB expandable storage. The G Flex 2 runs Android 5.0 Lollipop and has a non-removable 3000 mAh battery.
