LG has renewed one of its lines of more affordable terminals with the announcement of the LG K31 , which this time carries a MediaTek Helio  processor  and adds improvements on the photographic front, all while maintaining an economic price that is not far from what the company has us used to seeing in this market segment. 

LG K31, cheap but nice : LG K31, LG repowers its range of entry phones

The LG K31 catches up with trends and presents us with a 5.7-inch screen with HD + resolution (1,520 x 720 pixels)  and notch  in the form of a drop of water. It is also equipped with a fingerprint reader on the back, something that we will not find in its predecessors, so we count it as an improvement. 

In addition, we will find a pair of cameras aligned horizontally on the back, matching their respective LED flash. 

Interestingly, the on / off and volume buttons of the LG K31 are located on the left edge, while on the right side there is a dedicated button to invoke Google  Assistant . The only color presentation available is gray.   

Hardware and Features 

Under the hood of the LG K31 lies a humble Hardware that makes it clear to us which sector this terminal is aimed at. In this sense, we are facing a   2.0Ghz eight-core MediaTek Helio P22 chip , which is accompanied by only 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage . This set is powered by a mediocre 3,000mAh battery that is not provided with any kind of fast charging. 

Changing the subject a bit, the operating system is none other than Android 10 and the connectivity options are what we would expect from a mobile of this range, that is, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and nothing else. 

The photographic realm is not surprising, but at least it shows improvement over the previous generation. Listed here is a rear dual camera comprised of a 13MP main sensor and a 5MP wide-angle lens . For its part, the selfie camera is 5MP. 

Availability and price 

For now, the LG K31 is only available in the United States, where it is priced at $ 149.99, which would be 127 euros depending on the rate of the day. There is no information on an international release at the moment.
