Spending money for buying a smartphone is a matter to consider, especially if your budget is limited. However, this doesn’t mean that we’re just going to buy any smartphone that’s going to fit inside our budget without taking a good look at its features. And since manufacturer brands also influence the reputation of the smartphone itself, most consumers only buy smartphones from the trusted brands. And it’s somewhat hard to find an affordable smartphone from a reputable company until now.
Featuring an affordable smartphone with nice specifications, LG had released LG X Power, one of the seven new smartphones that the company had released this year, which had just occurred two weeks ago. Having a 5.3 inches IPS LCD display, the X Power looks somewhat larger compared to the company’s other latest smartphones. Experts have pointed out that the X Power doesn’t have a premium look and feel, especially if you’re going to look on its fully-plastic case and design. However, it doesn’t mean that it looks very cheap. And it’s a good thing to know that this one is downright powerful just as its name had suggested, having a 4100mAh battery as a power source.
Looking under the hood, the X Power features a 1.3GHz MediaTek quad-core processor along with a Mali-T720 for graphics. It’s also nice to know that it contains a 2GB RAM, which is very nice for an affordable smartphone. The internal storage contains a 16GB capacity, though only 10GB of it is actually usable. This is because of the fact that the 6GB storage space is already consumed by the Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS and the company’s bloatware. However, you can still expand the storage capacity by inserting a microSD card with a capacity up to 2TB.
On the camera side, the X Power contains 5MP front and 13MP rear cameras with LED Flash and autofocus features.
