Samsung Galaxy J7 V and LG K20 V smartphones just made their way to Verizon

Add as a preferred source on Google

Two new midrange phones are making their way to Verizon. The carrier has announced that it’s now offering the LG K20 V and the Samsung Galaxy J7 V, a pair of phones that come with a relatively decent price tag.

The phones are available on both Verizon’s prepaid and postpaid plans, with the LG K20 priced at $168, while the Galaxy J7 costs a little more at $240.

So what kind of specs do the two new phones have to offer? Let’s start with the Samsung J7 V. The phone has a relatively large 5.5-inch display, along with an 8MP rear-facing camera and a 3,300mAh battery that should provide at least a full day of use. Powering the phone is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor. The phone comes with 16GB of storage, but it has a microSD card slot so you can expand the storage up to an additional 256GB. It’s not a bad deal for the price — although there are definitely more powerful phones out there.

Then there’s the cheaper LG K20 V, which is a little smaller with its 5.3-inch display. This device offers a 13MP rear-facing camera, along with a 5MP front-facing device. You’ll also get a 2,800mAh battery and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 processor. The phone comes with 16GB of storage, but again, you’ll get a microSD card slot for expanding storage.

Both of the devices come with Android 7.0 out of the box, so if you’re looking for a cheap way to get the latest and greatest version of Android, then either one of the devices might be a good one to get.

You can get the Samsung Galaxy S7 V and the LG K20 V for yourself from the Verizon website.

Samsung launches Galaxy Card with cashback on Galaxy purchases
Galaxy credit card

For years, Samsung has worked to turn Galaxy into more than a smartphone brand. Today, the company's ecosystem stretches across foldables, smartwatches, televisions, home appliances, smart home products and digital services. Now, it's adding another piece to that puzzle, one that has little to do with hardware.

Samsung has officially introduced the Samsung Galaxy Card, its first branded credit card in the U.S. Designed in partnership with Barclays US Consumer Bank and operating on the Visa network, the card rewards users for everyday spending while offering significantly higher cashback on purchases made directly through Samsung.

This iPhone app turns a face scan into a personalized skincare routine
A 30-second face scan is all this iPhone app needs to suggest a skincare routine
Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

Indie developers have been behind some unusually specific apps across Apple’s platforms lately. Glaze can turn every Mac window into a CRT fever dream, while Screen Test can help expose monitor defects before the return window closes. I recently came across another one called Sharp, an iPhone app that uses a face scan to build and adjust a skincare routine.

Sharp was created by Esat, a student and solo developer from Germany who says his own skin problems inspired the project. The app is primarily aimed at people who want to start a routine but have little idea which products to use or what areas of their skin need attention.
