LG has added three new smartphones to its K-series line of budget smartphones. All of them come with a quad-sensor rear camera featuring a high-resolution main lens, a wide-angle lens, a depth sensor, and a macro lens. The K61 is the most premium of the three and is the first LG smartphone with a 48-megapixel main lens. Even flagships like LG G8 ThinQ feature 12-megapixel lenses.

All of these phones have an identical form factor except for the texture on the back. The LG K61 comes with a matte texture featuring horizontal lines, LG K51S features a glossy back while the LG K41S has a plain matte finish.
All three of the phones come with quad-sensor cameras horizontally aligned on a single housing. The fingerprint sensor is also mounted on the back.
