tops LG's new budget range ( K10 )

Posted by Droid Firmware Flash on Thursday, December 22, 2016

LG's new K range has dropped on us ahead of CES 2017 in Las Vegas, and rather than one phone to rule them all, the South Korean electronics giant has pulled out key features in line with the "original philosophy that all customers do not want the same things in a smartphone."

At the tippy-top of that range is the K10. While the full lineup of midrange phones packs in useful (but increasingly absent) features like removable batteries and expandable storage, the K10 is the only one you might mistake for a flagship, with the latest version of Android, fingerprint scanner and metal construction.

LG K10 key specs

5.3-inch 1,280x720-pixel resolution screen
2GB RAM
16GB or 32GB storage, expandable to up to 2TB
5-megapixel front camera, 13-megapixel rear camera
Removable 2,800mAh battery
Android 7.0 Nougat
148.7 mm by 75.3 mm by 7.9 mm
142 grams
Fingerprint scanner
The original K range was LG's play for the midrange, and by roping in its flagship G-series features like fingerprint scanning and wide-angle cameras, there's a hope that the new K10 will turn heads. The original K10, announced at last year's CES, sold for $299 (around £240 or AU$410, converted). While the 2017 model has more grunt and the latest Android software, I wouldn't expect it to clock in at much more.

Moving down the range, LG also announced the K8, K4 and K3. No second prizes for guessing how the numbering works. See below for what the rest of the range is packing.

Pricing and availability for any of the K-series phones is yet to be announced, but expect to hear more from the CES show floor. Follow CNET's coverage of the show here.
