LG has launched two new smartphones in India – LG L60 and LG L40, priced at 15000 INR and 6500 INR respectively. The LG L60 offers 4G LTE connectivity, while LG L40 is basic entry level contender.
The LG L60 is a dual SIM smartphone powered by 1.2 GHz quad core processor coupled with 1 GB RAM. The 4.5 Inch IPS LCD display has 480 x 800 (WVGA) Pixels spread across it, thus converging to basic 207 pixels per
inches.
Internal storage is paltry 4 GB, with option for 32 GB MicroSD expansion. For photography, there is 5 MP rear shooter, LED flash and a VGA front camera. All hardware is powered by a 2100 mAh battery.
Apart from the 4G part, the hardware isn’t befitting to the asking price. You can consider this if you are looking for a low cost 4G handset from a tier 1 player.
The LG F45 is has been further trimmed down and features a 3.5 Inch display with only HVGA 480 x 320 pixels. There is a 1 GHz dual core Soc, 512 MB RAM and 4 GB storage at the heart of LG F45, which is again dated combination.
Other features include 5 MP fixed focus unit, VGA front shooter, 3G, 2G, Wi-Fi (b/g/n), GPS, Bluetooth 4.0 and 1540 mAh battery. The dual SIM handset has been priced at 6,500 INR, and perhaps this would have been acceptable at the start of 2014, but not now hen users are spoilt for choice. Both smartphones feature Android 4.4 Kitkat along with custom LG software features like Knock ON and Guest Mode.
