LG Electronics has been dormant for quite some time
in the budget and mid-range smartphone market in India. But, it seems to change
soon as LG and Amazon have posted teaser regarding the launch of new LG
W-series smartphone and is expected to take directly on Samsung’s ‘M’ series
smartphones.
Amazon India has posted a teaser of a new upcoming
LG smartphone under ‘Amazon Specials’ section. The teaser image says “W FOR THE
WIN, Coming Soon” along with some key features of the smartphone.
LG ‘W’ series smartphone will come with a notch
display and the company says that the notches can be customized on display
according to the user’s preference. It will sport AI-enabled triple rear
cameras with various modes like normal, front camera selfie, portrait, night
mode, wide angle, bokeh and more. The triple rear camera setup is likely to be
a combination of a regular lens, wide angle lens and a lens for capturing
portrait mode photos.
The teaser page on Amazon also has camera samples
taken with the triple rear camera i.e., wide-angle shot, low light picture and
portrait mode photos. The smartphone will sport a gradient back and come in
three colors- black, blue and green.
Lastly, the teaser also reveals that this smartphone
will come in a “Pocket Worthy-Price Tag” which indicates that LG might price it
aggressively in the Indian market. The ‘Notify Me’ page has gone
live on Amazon.in, and there is no release date available yet. We will update
the post once we have more information.
