Editorial report
LG K50 technical sheet
The LG K50 is suited to basic everyday tasks, with a 3,500 mAh battery that holds less charge than most phones launched around the same time. Its 6.26-inch IPS LCD gives apps and video a roomy canvas, but its 269 ppi display density is lower than that of most phones of its time. Resolution is 720 × 1,520 px.
The 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage are also below what most phones of its time offer. A memory card can expand storage by up to 1 TB for additional files. The MediaTek Helio P22 is an eight-core processor clocked at up to 2 GHz, while performance and hardware are below average. The 13 MP rear camera includes optical image stabilization, and the camera is above average overall; its f/2.2 aperture, however, is among the weakest of phones from its time.
At 170 g, the K50 is slightly lighter than average. Connectivity is above average, with NFC, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, and support for two Nano-SIM cards. It also has a 3.5 mm audio jack and microUSB. With a NeoScore of 4.0, the LG K50 is an entry-level choice for basic use, with clear compromises in battery capacity, display density, and memory.
