    I have one of these. Not too bad. The biggest issue is no NFC

      But in the specs it says yes to the Nfc!

        Sorry, my bad. I have the K41

    • Ronnnie on 13/08/2021 - 11:44

      I couldn’t care less about nfc on a phone. Tap to pay is better with a watch and my watch has had it for years. If nfc is missing on a budget phone I can’t see that as an issue really. Budget phones always are going to come with trade offs. It’s when oems start removing features from their premium products is when I see an issue.

      • jackwoz on 13/08/2021 - 12:22

        And if we dont have a watch? I would say NFC is essential in this day and age and shouldnt be a trade off. I like to not have to take my wallet around and a phone is all i need.

        • Ronnnie on 13/08/2021 - 15:49

          Well spend more and get a model with it if that’s what you want. Many people don’t care for that feature, so some oems will omit the feature to save on costs. Hence being a budget phone. I’ve used phone for tap to pay and it sucks compared to using a watch. Hence I chose to get a watch with it. I would say nfc isn’t an essential feature on a phone.

            @Ronnnie: I disagree with 'Many people don’t care for that feature'. I would guess most people tap and pay compared to using cards.

            Care to elaborate how tapping with a phone sucks compared to tapping with a watch?

            I bought the K41 whilst i waited for my Xiaomi from China, but was surprised that it didnt have NFC.

  • drazenm on 12/08/2021 - 20:47

    How to unlock it, how much does it cost if anyone knows? thank you

  • 123bargain on 12/08/2021 - 20:57

    I wonder if this is single or dual sim version?
    Thanks

    • bobokingdom on 12/08/2021 - 21:14

      Single SIM - as it is a Vodafone Prepaid Phone

      • 123bargain on 12/08/2021 - 22:01

        I see thanks!

          Try and see whether JB still have the LG K41s for $99 in store.

  • Jimtherunner on 12/08/2021 - 21:23

    Looks alright for the specs

    Was $25 to unlock for my K42 through the Vodafone website though I bought mine from Target.

    • ozhunter68 on 13/08/2021 - 10:07

      How long after you bought it did you get yours unlocked?

      It should only be $25 to unlock all Vodafone Prepaid Phones after 6 months of purchase date.

      With Optus too, or after $80 recharge also with Optus.

  • ziggy1312 on 13/08/2021 - 06:48

    Would it work on Felix?

    • Click_It on 13/08/2021 - 09:24

      That's what I came here to find out. Is unlock needed for Felix?

  • ShouldIBuyIt on 13/08/2021 - 08:59

    Is it stuck on Android 10 forever?

    • ziggy1312 on 13/08/2021 - 09:27

      Having had Lgs for a while I would say yes - not even many security updates either

      • ShouldIBuyIt on 13/08/2021 - 10:51

        Now I remember why I stopped buying LG phones. And Motorola's…

    • SocietyBox on 14/08/2021 - 08:05

      LG's official website in Germany is listing K42's Android 11 update as scheduled for Q4 2021.

  • ilovefullprice on 13/08/2021 - 11:01

    Is this a good cheap spare phone where I can frequently factory reset?
