Short Review
- The LG K7 (2017) features a compact design with dimensions of 145.8 x 74.1 x 8.1 mm and a weight of 143g, making it easy to handle.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6737M chipset with a quad-core 1.1 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 1GB or 2GB of RAM, suitable for everyday use but limited for intensive applications.
- The rear camera offers an 8 MP sensor with autofocus, while the 5 MP front camera is adequate for selfies.
- Battery capacity stands at 2500mAh, providing moderate usage without fast or wireless charging options.
- The device runs on Android 6.0.1 (Marshmallow), which is outdated compared to current standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.2, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
- The phone is available in Titan and Brown colors, though it does not feature water resistance.
- Overall, the LG K7 (2017) is a basic smartphone with essential features for casual users.
