LG has 2 new Price 'K'ompetitive smartphones - K61 & K41S

Slowly, but surely I've noticed a lot of non-smartphone people (including some of you Blackberry folks in there 😋) are getting onto smarphones.

For them, they don't need a top end device, so something like these economy style phones from LG might be a good affordable option:

LG STRENGTHENS STRATEGY FOR PRICE COMPETITIVE SMARTPHONE MARKET

 

 

TORONTO, June 11, 2020 —LG Canada is accelerating its efforts to support the competitively priced smartphone market by releasing two devices in Canada on June 4, 2020.

 

The LG K61 and K41S smartphones are equipped with four high-end camera lenses on the back, including standard, super wide angle, depth sensor and micro lenses. The Quad Camera helps ensure clear pictures whether it’s a super wide or macro shot.

 

Considering the growing number of consumers who enjoy video content, both devices are equipped with a 6.5-inch display and DTS:X 3D Surround Sound offering high-quality dimensional audio. The K61 and K41S increase the sense of immersion by implementing a 19.5:9 and 20:9 cinematic aspect ratio, respectively. The area taken up by the front camera was also reduced by applying the Hole in Display on the LG K61 and V Notch style on the LG K41S.

 

Both devices have 4,000mAh high-capacity batteries, which reduces battery concerns in multi-media rich environments where power consumption can be high.

 

The durability has also been strengthened as both products passed the U.S. Military Standard test, MIL-STD-810G, which tests durability in low temperature, humidity, high temperature, vibration, shock, thermal shock, etc.

 

“LG is committed to providing Canadians with premium smartphones at affordable prices without compromising performance, quality or design,” says Varun Kalia, Head of Mobile Communications at LG Canada.

 

The LG K61 will be available through the following carriers and retailers: Bell, Eastlink, Freedom Mobile, Koodo, SaskTel, Telus, The Mobile Shop, Videotron, Virgin Mobile, Xplore Mobile and Wal-Mart.

 

The LG K41S will be available through the following carriers and retailers: Bell, Eastlink, Koodo, Telus, The Mobile Shop, Videotron, Virgin Mobile, Xplore Mobile and Wal-Mart.
