Just as we predicted, LG is bringing their L series back for Mobile World Congress 2014 with the LG L90, LG L70, and LG L40. The devices attempt to follow LG’s premium G lineup’s lead with top-notch design, packaged with solid mid-range specs for emerging markets.

Customers won’t have to wait for the highest-end OS  though: all three devices will launch with Android 4.4 KitKat.

We’ll get hands-on with the LG LIII Series at MWC 2014, but for now, you’ll have to settle for sauntering over the specs.
