Android Marshmallow, the latest version of Google's operating system, is usually found in the most advanced smartphones, which usually cost hundreds of euros. But this changes with the arrival of the LG K3, that carries Android 6 to the low-end market.
It is a smartphone with quite low technical specifications, but it is a good option for those looking for something simple and above all, for all Economic commitment .
LG K3: low range with Android Marshmallow. Specs and Features
Screen
Although a high percentage of Android mobiles that we find today are around 5 inches or more, the LG K3 is designed for the less demanding, and only has 4,5 inches. Furthermore, its resolution is 854 x 480 pixels, far from the high definition offered by other terminals. But let's remember that it is a basic model, which may not be the most optimal for game or video lovers.
Power and performance
In the LG K3 we find a processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 quad-core at 1,1 GHz and 1GB of RAM. Its internal storage is 8 GB, although we can expand it without problems through SD card. They are very basic features, but enough for those who do not make advanced and intensive use of their Android mobile.
If you want the mobile simply to use WhatsApp and take the occasional photo, you don't need higher specs at all.
Cameras and battery
The rear camera of the LG K3 is 5 SM, very far from what some high-end mobiles offer, but if you want the photos to upload to social networks or send them via WhatsApp they will be enough. The big weak point is the front camera, which is only VGA quality.
On the contrary, its 1940 mAh battery with fast charge is something that some users of this smartphone will especially appreciate.
Availability and price
At the moment, the LG K3 is only available in the US, where it has gone on sale at a price of 80 dollars. But it is expected that in the coming weeks it can reach Europe, and although it is not yet official, it is rumored that its price may be around 70 Euros, entering direct competition with Chinese android mobiles, in that price range.
