The trio of mid-range smartphones will come with Android 4.4 KitKat preinstalled and sport 1.2GHz dual-core processors, the company announced Saturday.

The top-end L90 sports a 4.7-inch display with a 960x540 pixel resolution, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage, an 8-megapixel rear-mounted camera, a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera, and a removable 2,540mAh battery. The L70 features a 4.5-inch 800x400-pixel display, a 5- or 8-megapixel camera (depending on the market), 1GB of RAM, 4GB of internal storage, and a removable 2,100mAh battery. The low-end L40 comes with a 3.5-inch 480x320-pixel display, a 3-megapixel camera, 512MB of RAM, 4GB of internal storage, and a removable 1,540 or 1,700mAh battery (also depending on the market).

LG didn't reveal pricing or partners for the new handsets or when consumers could expect them to hit the market, but expect to hear more about them at the Mobile World Congress, which begins February 24 in Barcelona.
