Description of the LG K42
In the autumn of 2020, LG announced several devices, including the LG K42. This budget smartphone has a nice camera system, a military standard, and a stylish design. If you are looking for a smartphone with nice specifications for not too much money, this K42 is definitely a good option!
It is equipped with 64GB of storage space, enough to store a lot of photos and videos. You can take these photos and videos with the four different camera lenses on the back, or with the 8-megapixel front camera. Want to know quickly when it's going to rain? Turn on Google Assistant at the touch of a button.
Four cameras for great photos
On the back of the device you will find four different camera lenses, a main camera, an ultra-wide-angle lens, a macro lens, and a depth sensor. With this combination of cameras you can make a cool close-up of one of your friends or just a group photo of your entire friend group.
You can also experiment with depth-of-field effects, also known as bokeh effects, thanks to the depth-of-field sensor. This means that you focus on your subject while blurring the background. Besides the four cameras on the back, you will also find a selfie camera on the front.
Enable the assistant at the touch of a button
On the side of the LG K42 you will find a Google Assistant button, which you can activate at the push of a button. When you press the button once, you can immediately use Google Assistant. This can be done by typing in your question or by using your voice.
64GB expandable storage space
The LG K42 is has 64GB of internal storage, which you can use to store various files such as photos, videos, and music. Besides that, the operating system also uses a part of this storage space. Do you need more than 64GB? Then you can easily expand the memory up to 2TB.
Insert two SIM cards at the same time
The K42 is a dualSIM phone, which means that you can insert two SIM cards at the same time. This is useful when you like to keep your work and private life separate, but don't want the hassle of two phones. Besides the opportunity to put in two SIM cards, it is also possible to insert an extra memory card.

The LG K42 has a MIL-STD-810G, which means that the device has undergone several tests to assess its sturdiness. For example, the performance of this phone at very high temperatures or at very low temperatures has been assessed. This standard indicates that this is a solid phone.
