The Korean firm has just presented a new phone, the LG K42 , in a very stealthy way, a terminal that had been leaked in recent weeks and that now officially confirms its specifications. A phone for the most affordable mid-range that also has a very original design.
The Korean firm has published the official page of this phone, which comes with humble but very well balanced specifications. And above all, a new design that could be revealing a new change of direction in the range of affordable mobiles of the brand.
An original design with a perforated camera
This phone arrives as we say with an unusual design in the Korean firm, with a “wave” on the back that offers a visual texture of horizontal stripes that react to light in different environments. The camera also has a very different look than what LG has used to, which shows that they are working hard on this aspect to make their terminals more attractive. This LG K42 has a 6.6-inch screen and HD + resolution , which also has a perforated camera on the top.
Performance relies on a MediaTek Helio P22 processor , a well-performing mid-range classic. It comes with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage expandable via microSD cards. The camera is quadruple , with a 13 megapixel main sensor. This is followed by 5-megapixel ultra-wide, 2-megapixel macro and 2-megapixel depth sensors. At the front, the in-display camera has an 8-megapixel sensor that offers good selfies.
The battery of this phone comes with a good capacity, 4000mAh , although we do not know if it has a fast charge, and of what power. A phone that does not forgo some unusual features in this range, such as the MIL-STD-810G military grade certification, which makes it an ultra resistant device to shocks and extreme temperatures. It also has DTS X3D sound, as well as Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity. It has dimensions of 165 x 76.7 x 8.4 mm and weighs 184 grams . It has a USB Type-C connector, as well as Android 10 as the operating system. The fingerprint reader is located on the side, on the power button.
Price and availability
LG has not yet revealed any details about the price of this device, but taking into account its characteristics we can expect an affordable cost for most users, between 200 and 250 euros . A mobile that at the moment we have only been able to see in green, with a finish that reminds us quite a lot of the Realme 6i.
