South Korean consumer electronics giant LG has launched a new mid-range smartphone, dubbed L65, as part of the company's flagship Series 3 handsets.
The new LG phone sports a 4.3-inch WVGA (800x480p) IPS screen, with pixel density of 217 ppi (pixels per inch) and ships with the latest Android v4.4 KitKat OS out-of-the-box.
Under the hood, it packs 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 series dual-core CPU, 1GB RAM, 4GB inbuilt memory (expandable up to 32GB), 5.0-megapixel main camera, 0.3-megapixel (VGA) snapper on the front and 2100 mAh battery.

LG L65 has been reportedly made available in Russia for 7,490 Rubles (around ₹12,590).
