It seems like the second half of 2020 is all about bringing 5G to lower price points, and LG is on board. Today, it announced the K92 5G, a 5G smartphone that only costs $359; indeed, this is among the lowest prices that we've seen for a 5G device.

The handset comes packed with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 690 chipset, which was made specifically to bring 5G to these lower price points. It features a 6.7-inch FHD+ FullVision display with a hole-punch cut-out for the front camera, and it has 6GB RAM, 128GB of internal storage, and a 4,000mAh battery.

For the camera, the main sensor has a 64MP resolution with an f/1.78 aperture. You'll also find a 5MP ultra-wide sensor, a 2MP depth sensor, and a 2MP macro sensor. The front camera is 16MP f/2.0.

The LG K92 5G comes in a color called Titan Gray, and it should be available soon. You'll be able to grab one from AT&T, Cricket Wireless, and U.S. Cellular, and while the suggested retail price is $359, LG says that pricing, availability, and promotions will vary depending on your carrier.
