One of the mobile phones that South Korean handset vendor LG Electronics has been long rumored to plan on bringing to the market is the LG G3 mini, which appears to have emerged online once again, in a leaked sketch.

The image, available courtesy of infamous tipster evleaks, suggests that the handset might arrive on shelves under the name of LG G3S, and that it will also sport dual-SIM capabilities.

No official confirmation on the smaller flavor of LG G3 has been provided as of now, but rumor has it that we might see it formally introduced in the coming months.

In fact, the handset appears to have been already revealed in China under the name of LG G3 Beat, and is said to hit shelves with a 5-inch touchscreen display that can deliver a 720p resolution.

It should be powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor, paired with 2GB of RAM, while also expected to include 16GB of internal memory.

Moreover, LG G3 mini is said to feature an 8-megapixel rear camera, paired with a 2MP front camera. It should be powered by a 2540mAh battery, while running under the Android 4.4.2 KitKat operating system.

Recently, the phone has been spotted at the FCC with support for AT&T’s network, though it should land on shelves on other markets and at other wireless carriers as well.
