LG launches three new budget phones.
LG has been upping its game in the smartphone market. Now with the announcement of three brand new smartphones in the market, there is definitely going to be a healthy competition. The new smartphones are all priced for the budget segment. The three new phones called the LG W11, LG W31, and LG W31+ have been launched in India as the company’s latest budget smartphones and come as an upgrade to the LG W10, W30, and W30 Pro that debuted in the country in June of last year. In terms of features and upgrades, all three of the phones come with FullVision displays and include a dedicated Google Assistant button. In terms of optics, the LG W31 and W31+ feature a triple rear camera setup, while the LG W11, on the other hand, offers dual rear cameras. All the three phones come equipped with octa-core MediaTek processors.
The LG W11 smartphone is the budget phone that we will be looking into the specs of today. The phone was launched on 9th November 2020 and is marked at a starting price of Rs. 9,490. It comes with a 6.52-inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 720x1600 pixels and an aspect ratio of 20:9. LG W11 is powered by a 2GHz octa-core MediaTek MT8183 processor. The phone comes with 3GB of RAM and packs 32GB of inbuilt storage that can be expanded up to 512GB via microSD card. The LG W11 runs Android 10 and it is powered by a decent 4000mAh battery. The battery may seem like it could have been better, regardless, it will make the phone lighter and more handy.
Now coming to the camera configuration, the LG W11 on the rear packs a 13-megapixel primary camera and a second 2-megapixel camera. The rear camera setup has phase detection autofocus. At the front of the phone there is an 8-megapixel selfie shooter camera. The dual camera setup looks decent enough for a budget phone.
The LG W11 smartphone is based on Android 10 and supports dual-SIM (GSM and GSM) that accepts Nano-SIM and Nano-SIM cards. In dimensions the phone is nicely built and measures 166.20 x 76.30 x 8.40mm (height x width x thickness). It was launched in a single colour variant of Midnight Blue. The phone has all the basic connectivity options including Wi-Fi, GPS, Micro-USB, 3G, and 4G (with support for Band 40 used by some LTE networks in India). There are some sensors available on the phone as well that include an accelerometer and a proximity sensor.
