Following the footsteps of its competitor Samsung, South Korean electronics major LG recently announced its India-centric W-series smartphones. The first batch of smartphones in the series include an entry-level LG W10 and an affordable feature-rich proposition the LGW30. The latter brings V-shaped notch screen, triple rear cameras, big capacity battery and a redesigned operating system that looks almost stock Android to the sub-Rs 10,000 segment. The phone seems to be a balanced proposition in its segment, but how does it fare in real life scenarios? Let’s find out:
Design
The LG W30 looks premium and has a lightweight build. It has a V-shaped waterdrop notch display with limited bezels on the sides and top, and a thick chin at the bottom. The phone’s back is made up of polycarbonate with a glossy profile which gives the impression that it is made of glass. Like other phones with similar build, the phone’s glossy body is a fingerprint magnet and gets easily smudged. However, it has good resistance that protects it from accidental scratches and scuffs.
