It recently introduced the LG K7 and K10, and now it seems that the family is expanding with a very interesting new model.

The LG K8 is a balanced terminal, with a reasonable 5-inch HD screen. The cameras are correct, on a technical level it complies within the mid-range, and the battery is acceptable although it does not stand out. Of course, storage is scarce, but in return we will enjoy Android 6.0 Marshmallow, the most recent version of the green robot's operating system.

So we are a correct entry-level smartphone, which is not surprising, but which is expected to offer a fair price. The finishes appear to have been made of plastic, and the design is very LG-like, with the buttons on the back of the case.
