South Korean conglomerate LG has officially introduced the LG K10 and LG K7 on Tuesday. These budget-friendly devices pack a punch when it comes to exterior design and offer solid configurations. Both K10 and K7 will reportedly be showcased at the CES 2016 as well.

LG K10

As far as the LG K10 specifications go, the smartphone comes with a 5.3-inch display, 720p screen resolution and 2.5D arc glass protection. LG will apparently be offering the handset in three hues namely White, Indigo and Gold.

On the software front, there is no Marshmallow but Android 5.1 Lollipop OS runs the device while a modest 2,300 mAh battery unit keeps the lights on. Plus, the handset will be released as 4G LTE-capable or 3G-capable, depending on the market of release.

The LG K10 with LTE on board flaunts a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera unit. The 3G variant, on the other hand, settles for an 8-megapixel sensor at the back. Speaking of front-facing camera, depending on the region of release either an 8-megapixel or 5-megapixel snapper will be housed.

The RAM configuration options include 1 GB, 1.5 GB or 2 GB and the device comes equipped with either 8 GB or 16 GB of native storage space.

Under the hood, the LTE-compatible LG K10 is powered by either a 1.2 GHz or 1.3 GHz quad-core processor, or a 1.14 GHz octa-core CPU. The 3G-enabled model, meanwhile, comes powered by a 1.3 GHz quad-core processor.

Other aspects of the LG K7 differ based on the region of release and whether the model is LTE or 3G-capable. The LTE model apparently comes powered by a 1.1 GHz quad-core CPU, whereas the 3G variant utilizes a 1.3 GHz quad-core processor.

The rear-facing camera unit is either an 8-megapixel or 5-megapixel sensor based on the market. The other region-dependent feature is the RAM configuration with either 1.5 GB or 1 GB configuration. The handset will carry either 8 GB or 16 GB of native storage space. While the LTE K7 model will be offered in Titan color, the 3G variant will have a choice of White, Black or Gold hues.
