2014 will be the year of the mini-me phone Dec 10th 2013, 17:48, by Evan Dashevsky While 2013 had its share of super-sized monstrosities, there was also a countertrend towards teeny tiny versions of flagship devices. The past year saw the introduction of the HTC One mini and Samsung Galaxy S4 mini, not to mention lower-tier flavors of premier phones in the form of the iPhone 5c and the Moto G. And the diminutive train shows no sign of slowing down in 2014. A Greek tech site is reporting that LG is preparing a 4.7-inch LG G2 mini (though I am hesitant to refer to the run-of-the-mill LG G2 as a premier phone). Additionally, SamMobile has confirmed that Samsung will introduce a "lite" flavor of its popular Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy Grand 2. The trend will even extend to other form factors in the guise of a lite version of the Galaxy Tab 3 that will cost around $135. These won't necessarily be smaller, but they're part of a trend of bringing high-end brands to low-cost devices.
