Bringing AI to the mid-range cameraRead more
Expert test of the LG K40S. The affordable LG mobile phone from LG Mobile has a much more modern design than its predecessor. The LG mobile phone is even slightly cheaper and has a longer battery life. Sounds like good conditions for the LG smartphone, but of course we want to know more about it in the test.Read more
