New Delhi: LG Electronics announced that it will launch the G5, its latest flagship smartphone, in India in the next quarter. The company had showed the G5, which is also its first modular phone, at MWC 2016 early this week.
A modular smartphone is made out of separate components, which enables users to replace or upgrade certain functions independently. Users will be able to pop out the phone's bottom and swap in new hardware features.
Early options include a camera grip with physical buttons to take shots and control video recording.
In the G5 smartphone, LG has added the B&O sound system and a 135 degree wide angle lens to lure customers less keen to upgrade to devices only marginally better than the ones they already own.
The main camera on LG's upcoming G5 smartphone will have both a regular lens for standard shots and a wider-angle lens so you can capture more of what's in front of you without having to step back.
The always-on Display on the G5 allows users to view notifications time, date and other information without waking the G5. The 3D Arc Glass featured in the G5's 5.3-inch display creates a gentle curve.
The LG G5 is equipped with the new Snapdragon 820 processor that offers 64-bit performance and Adreno 530 graphics. The G5 offers Quick Charge 3.0 for fast charging.
