LG has unveiled four new smartphones ahead of this year’s Mobile World Congress (MWC) which the company claims will incorporate premium design elements and features at a midrange price.
The four devices, named Magna, Spirit, Leon and Joy will be available in both LTE and 3G versions, which can be distinguished by metallic and patterned plastic back covers respectively. All the phones will debut with Android 5.0 Lollipop, with the exception of LG Joy, which will launch with Android 4.4 Kit Kat.
LG will introduce premium UX features like Gesture Shot and Glance View for taking selfies and accessing key information on the notification screen. LG hasn’t revealed the prices for these devices, a global rollout to selected markets is expected this week.
