CES 2016: LG Launched New Mid-Range K7 and K10 Smartphones

Today at CES 2016, LG unveiled two new smartphones to the world; one is called the LG K7, while the other is titled the LG K10. However they both have different specifications, they are both mid-range devices, meaning they have decent specs packed in. LG says that they’re the first handsets to use their new “glossy pebble” design language inspired by nature and aimed toward a younger target market.

LG K Series smartphones will be the first to offer LG’s glossy pebble design language, a contemporary, stylish look with a curved, modern finish aimed at a younger audience. The glossy pebble design is complemented by LG’s new 2.5D Arc Glass for a smooth and seamless style that could only be made possible because the sides of K Series smartphones are free of button clutter. With design cues borrowed from nature, the K10 and K7 feel premium, but they are affordably priced.

The back panel features a woven texture for increased grip during use.

“Our 2016 K Series is the latest example of LG applying it best mobile technology and premium design philosophy across numerous smartphone categories,” said Juno Cho, president and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “Customers equate the LG name with great smartphone imaging technology and we are committed to delivering on that flattering expectation.”
