And finally among all the leading companies we have another successor LG which slowly and steadily gaining reputation in India after its launch and the great success of the NEXUS 5x in 2015. LG decides to launch another smartphone which was showcased in the MWC 2016. Well LG Mailed some samples at Mobile world Congress which is not quite ready for a full review but the sample gathers some initial thoughts about the device. Well there were also rumors that the LG G5 competes in the market by beating Samsung Galaxy S7 and Xiaomi Mi5 at the MWC 2016.
Hardware and design
There are two models as announced by the company H850 and H849 which would be coming in different countries with difference in the Processor (includes CPU, GPU and Chipset) and the RAM. Rest all would remain same. Again it’s still not confirmed that which one would be coming to India.
⦁ H850 – It comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 with Adreno 530 GPU,
Dual - core 2.15 GHz Kyro & dual – core 1.6 GHz kyro
⦁ H840 – Which comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 with Adreno 510 GPU,
Quad – core Cortex-A72 & quad – core Cortex-A53
Well design of the device is pretty stunning as it comes with a matte finish back and the curved edges (Many of devices have that in common nowadays!!) with a cool look of the camera which gives the back of the phone an awesome feel. While we have the power button just below the camera which is also equipped with the Fingerprint sensor that unlocks the phone in less than 0.5 seconds. While the volume Rockers are on the left hand side that also have a good look too. Another stunning feature that is in the device is the modular battery feature discussed below.
Camera
The device is packed with a 16 MP (f/1.8) and 8 MP (f/2.8) dual rear camera which is also a unique feature of the device. Although many phones have come up with the dual camera feature but first to offer one lens capturing standard 78-degree photos and the second lens capturing 135-degree wide-angle shots. The two viewing angles means the user can digitally zoom in when framing a photo or zoom out to activate the wide-angle lens. It records 2160p(2K)@30fps, 1080p(FHD)@60fps, 720p(HD)@120fps.
The front camera is an 8 MP (f/2.0) camera that is great for the selfie lovers. It records 1080p(FHD) videos@30fps.
DISPLAY AND INTERFACE
The device comes with a 5.3 inches IPS LCD Capacitive touchscreen (16M colors) with a QHD (1440p) Display (not qHD) with a 554 ppi pixel density along with a strong protection of Corning Gorilla Glass 4. The QHD Display allows the smooth playback of high end games along with streaming FHD videos easily. The device also features multitouch and a new Always-on display as seen in the latest Samsung Galaxy S7 is installed in the device. Always – on Display shows the time and notifications without even switching on the device.
Out of the box It comes with Android v6.0.1 (Marshmallow) and LG Optimus UX 5.0 UI for a smoother experience for the users. The company has removed the app drawer in the latest UI that is installed in the device claiming people are looking for even easier experiences In their operating system.
Battery
As discussed above about the stunning feature of the battery, we get a modular design of taking out the battery of the device and replacing the normal bottom parts of the device with special bottom parts which will be available at some cost. This idea was discussed by Google as they wanted to design a full modular phone which is convertible and LG has started the thing although Fairphone 2 was launched but did not gain much popularity in the market.
The device comes with a 2800 mAh li-Ion battery with Qualcomm Quickcharge 3.0 that charges the device for 0 to 83% in just 30 minutes. Also battery can be extended by buying the external camera module and connecting to battery finally giving the battery extra 1200mAh which is great for travelling purposes.
Other features that the device includes are pretty standard like USB OTG support, NFC, 4G LTE and yes the most important that still has not revealed is weather the device would be available in Dual Sim or Single SIM although it is sure that there would be a Nano SIM slot.
The device would be available in 4 colors: Silver, Titan, Gold, Pink. The device is expected to be launched in april 2016.
Also the smartphone is priced around RS 52,000
