LG unveils its W10, W30 and W30 Pro smartphones for India
LG on Wednesday pulled the covers off a brand new line of smartphones for the Indian market, namely the W series.
Taking the form of three phones, namely the W10, W30 and W30 Pro, the line is seemingly eyeing the middle-to-lower income smartphone user.
The W10 is the cheapest of the lot, coming in at 9000 rupees (around R1850). It features a 6.19-inch IPS LCD display with 1512×720 resolution. This gives the display a 19:9 aspect ratio.
The phone sports a Mediatek Helio P22 chipset (an eight core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU), 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage.
There’s also a microSD card slot, 3.5mm headphone jack, microUSB for data and charging, a rear mounted fingerprint reader and a 4000mAh battery.
The W10 features a dual rear camera with a 13MP main sensor with autofocus and 5MP depth sensor. Up front, there’s an 8MP selfie camera mounted in a rather large notch.
LG W30 features a larger 6.26-inch display with a 1520×720 resolution. The phone’s also powered by the same Helio P22 chip, and also features 3GB of RAM with 32GB of internal storage.
The main difference is the camera array. At the rear, the W10 sports three snappers: a 12MP primary sensor with autofocus, a 13MP wide-angle snapper with autofocus, and a 2MP depth sensor. It has a 16MP selfie camera up front mounted in a V-shaped notch.
It’s set to cost 9999 rupees, or around R2060.
Finally, the W30 Pro shares the same screen dimensions and resolution with the W30, but does have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 chipset at its heart (four Qualcomm Kryo 250 Gold cores and four Kryo 250 Silver cores all clocked at 1.8GHz), 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage.
It has a slightly different triple camera arrangement at the rear too, with a 12MP primary sensor with autofocus, an 8MP wide-angle snapper, and a 5MP depth sensor. Up front, a 16MP sensor is mounted in a V-shaped notch.
LG doesn’t yet have a price for the W30 Pro, but expect it to cost a bit more than its W10 brother.
The phones will be heading to India in July, but it’s not clear if they’ll be shipping beyond the Asian subcontinent’s borders.
