LG has released a new budget smartphone called the LG K31 and it is currently available for preorder in the US market.
LG’s K31 is a budget phone with so many compromises, especially on the camera aspect. The dual rear cameras include a 13 MP main lens and a wide-angle lens of 5 MP with a 120 ° field of view. The cameras have a LED flashlight for taking low light pictures. At the front is a regular 5 MP lens with its own built-in selfie flash. A lot of features further extend what’s achievable with the K31, such as an optical zoom up to 4x, Portrait Mode, and Google Lens support.
