LG will present at least two new phones during the World Congress of Mobile Devices (MWC). This is the LG K8 and LG K10 series, which the company says will break the gap between the most expensive and the cheapest phones it currently offers.
Both series of devices will come with a glossy, luxurious appearance, 2.5D screen design and three colors: black, blue and gold. The company said that the focus of the two phones is still to provide a good camera in a device of an average price.

There will be at least three different models: LG K10 +, LG K10 and LG K10α (alpha), the plus version being the one that will obtain the best features.

LG said that among the greatest attributes of the device is the ability to quickly capture photographs and selfies and the possibility of taking better pictures when there are low light conditions. In addition, the phones will debut a new feature called Flash Jump Shot, which takes a picture every three seconds which then becomes an easy-to-share GIF.
The two phones will be sold in Europe, Latin America, Asia and the Middle East, although it does not seem that they will reach the United States immediately, according to information provided by the company in its official blog. Both phones will be shown for the first time during MWC 2018.
