Entry-level LG K12+ to arrive at MWC 2019

The listing revealed the new phone will have an HD+ screen with a tall ratio of 18:9, so no notch in sight. Given the DPI is 280, the diagonal of the display is likely to be around 5.8”. The MediaTek chipset will be coupled with 3 GB RAM, and the OS will be Android 8.1 Oreo.

Last year the LG K11+ came with 32 GB storage so the successor K12+ might have the same memory combo if there is even cheaper K12 Alpha in line. Other safe bets are a fingerprint scanner on the back and some Android-based face unlock that many affordable smartphones now implement.
