LG’s updated K Series carries over the original
philosophy that all customers do not want the same things in a smartphone.
Rather than offering one main smartphone model and expecting customers to
adapt, the K Series was designed with the diverse needs of consumers in mind.

Touch Display that delivers a superb viewing experience indoors or out. Its 5MP
front camera with 120-degree wide angle selfie lens complements a premium, 13MP
rear camera that has been employed in LG flagship G series devices. Other advanced
features not usually available in smartphones in this category include a fingerprint
scanner, a metallic U-frame for a sturdy but slim 7.9mm profile and 2.5D Arc
Glass design.

The K8 features a 5-inch HD In-cell Touch display and delivers high-quality camera
performance with 5MP in the front and 13M on the rear enhanced by LG’s
intelligent UX features such as Auto Shot and Gesture Shot for selfies. Auto Shot
automatically triggers the front camera’s shutter when a face is detected and Gesture
Shot takes a selfie in response to a hand signal, eliminating the need to press
the shutter button and shaking the phone at the most critical moment.
The
K4 is equipped with a sensitive 5-inch In-cell Touch display and 5MP front and
rear cameras as well as the popular Auto Shot and Gesture Shot features found
in the K8. The attractive K4 offers a slim 7.9mm profile and removable 2,500mAh
battery as well as a microSD slot for additional storage.

LG will also debut the third generation Stylus 3,
the latest version of its mid-range Stylus smartphone (Stylo in the United
States). The Stylus 3 delivers an improved writing experience with a 1.8mm
diameter fiber-tip stylus to provide the feel and feedback of an actual pen
when writing on the screen. The Stylus 3 also features a fingerprint scanner
and enhanced UX with Pen Pop 2.0 as well as the popular Pen Keeper and Screen-off
Memo. With Pen Pop 2.0, your memos are never out of sight and can be set to
display on the screen whenever the stylus is removed. Pen Keeper displays a
warning when the stylus strays too far from the phone, and Screen-off Memo
enables note-taking directly on the screen even when the display is off.
