LG Series III Set To Appear At MWC 2014

lg-series-3The folks over at LG have done it yet again, where they intend to wow the world with a new set of smartphones, with the venue of choice being Mobile World Congress that is happening at Barcelona, Spain, later this month. There will be key elements of LG’s design heritage implemented across all various facets of the visually striking L Series III smartphones. Sporting a seamless layout, delicate finishing, refined metallic frame and Quick Window smart cover, all of these will be amalgamated together perfectly. Quick Window that will arrive in a trio of vibrant colors, will be the first cover from LG which has been specially designed for a mid-range smartphone. Quick Window would also deliver functional benefits that go beyond mere protection from drops and bumps, as the presence of this see-through window would enable one to check out just who is making a call, at the same time figure out the current time without having to open up the cover.

All of the L Series III models will be powered by Android 4.4 KitKat as the mobile operating system of choice, which would definitely place it in good stead with the rest of the market. LG hopes that by throwing in Android 4.4 KitKat into these handsets, it will be able to deliver the most up-to-date and optimized Android experience across a broader audience. In

If you happen to drop by Mobile World Congress that is about to kick off shortly, you will be able to experience the first three L Series III smartphones, where they are the L40, L70, and L90. The L90 will obviously be the “flagship” model among the three, sporting a quad-core 1.2GHz processor, a 4.7″ IPS qHD (960 x 540 resolution) display, 8GB of internal memory, 1GB RAM, an 8-megapixel shooter at the back with a 1.3-megapixel shooter in front, and a 2,540mAh removable battery.

There is also the LG L70, which will come with a dual-core 1.2GHz processor, a 4.5″ IPS display, 4GB of internal memory and 1GB RAM, while sporting an 8-megapixel shooter at the back with another camera in front. Last but not least, the L40 is pretty much your average entry level device, and we do not have details on their pricing at this point in time.
