The latest budget offering from LG is here
with the freshly announced K31. It brings a 5.7-inch HD+ LCD with a water drop
notch, dual rear cameras and a 3,000 mAh battery all wrapped in a plastic
shell. The 18.9:9 panel sports a rather large chin at the bottom while the
selfie cam comes in at 5MP. Around the back we find the 13MP primary shooter
with PDAF alongside a 5MP ultrawide snapper with a 120° field of view. The
Helio P22 SoC is paired with 2GB RAM and 32GB storage which can be further
expanded via microSD.
The whole package runs on Android 10 with
LG’s UX on top. In terms of battery, we have a 3,000 mAh cell which charges
over the dated microUSB standard. Other notable features include a rear-mounted
fingerprint scanner, headphone jack and a dedicated Google Assistant button on
the left-hand side. The LG K31 will sell for US$ 150 in the US and is coming to
all major carriers and their subsidiaries. It’s already available to buy there
while international availability was not yet detailed.
