You are reading a story from PhoneRadar.

Earlier this year, LG had launched the new K series smartphones at the CES 2016. While at the MWC 2016, the company came up with X series smartphones along with the LG Stylus 2 and LG G5. Now, the latest leak reveals a bunch of LG smartphones which are expected to be unveiled at the upcoming CES 2017 event that will be held in the first week of January. The company’s market share in the top two largest smartphone markets, China and India has been drastically decreased in the last few years. However, the company has launched few decent mid-range smartphones like LG K7, K10, X Screen, and X Power in 2016.

In 2017, the company will be launching successors for few of those devices at upcoming CES event. LG K3 2017, K4 2017, K8 2017, and K10 2017 will be launched under the K-series. While the LG Stylus 3 (a.k.a LG Stylo 3 plus) will be launched as the successor to the Stylus 2, the LG X Calibur will be the new addition to the X series. We also got few details about the LG X power 2, but that will be unveiled at the MWC 2017. As of now, there is no information whether these devices will be running on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow or the latest Android 7.0 Nougat.
