LG’s upcoming premium smartphone the LG V30 is expected to be unveiled during the IFA event in Berlin, Germany by the end of August. The handset will look to repair the damage left by the poor sales of the LG G6 that was launched earlier this year. However, before its launch, there are some fresh rumors circulating regarding the handset’s features.
Wireless charging for the phone
According to a well-known leakster, OnLeaks, the LG V30 will support wireless charging capabilities. This would set the handset apart from all previous models of LG’s V series handsets.
Rumors also indicate that apart from wireless charging the upcoming smartphone will sport a Glass Back, which would give a premium feel.
If rumors are true then the upcoming device will be the first smartphone from the company with a glass back. The rear panel of the handset is also expected to include a fingerprint scanner. The phone is also estimated to be equipped with a dual rare camera setup, which would offer high-quality images to users.
LG V30 expected specs
The high-end LG V30 handset is expected to arrive with premium specifications, which include a 6.2-inch Quad HD (2560 x 1440 pixels) display with 474ppi pixel density. It will be powered by the latest octa-core Snapdragon 835 chipset and an Adreno 540 GPU.
The phone is expected to arrive with the Android 7.1 Nougat operating system straight out of the box.
The LG V30 will probably come in two variants. The lower end model will boast 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB storage while the higher end handset will come with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal memory. Both models will support microSD card and their memories can be expanded by up to 256 GB through the use of external memory cards.
Rumors also suggest that the handset will sport dual 13-megapixel primary camera along with an 8-megapixel secondary snapper.
Although the battery specifications of the smartphone are unknown at the moment, the recent leak suggests that the device may support wireless charging support. Fast charging capabilities may also be present on the handset.
Other than the smartphone will boast the fingerprint sensor and is likely to come with USB Type-C port.
The LG V30 is expected to offer customers the choice of three colors including Silver, Titan, and Pink. However, all of these features are based on leaks and rumors and the company has itself not confirmed any of them. So, fans should take these leaks with a grain of salt.
