LG V10 buyers can get some goodies for a limited time
Carriers will start offering the LG V10 to buyers this week and at least three of them have teamed up with LG to offer a special promotion for some free goodies for a limited time. Purchasing an LG V10 through AT&T, T-Mobile or Verizon Wireless will qualify buyers to get a 200GB microSD card, an extra battery and an extra battery charging cradle.
The LG V10 is already a pretty beefy smartphone and comes with 64GB of internal memory. The device is capable of supporting additional storage of up to 2TB using a microSD card, so getting a 200GB card gives buyers a good start on that expansion. The LG V10 also comes with a 3000mAh battery, so it is no slouch, but LG makes it removable so a spare can be swapped in rather easily, which makes the extra battery a nice addition. Finally, who doesn’t need a spare charging cradle?
For more details and to take advantage of the promo if you buy an LG V10 through one of the eligible carriers, you can head over to lgv10promo.com after reading the press release below. The offer is good from October 27th through November 15th.

LG V10 can be ordered tomorrow on AT&T, followed by T-Mobile on Wednesday
LG has been gearing up for a substantial Fall launch. The V10 was announced about a month ago, aiming at a November release in the US. So the time has come to know when you can get your hands on LG’s latest.
First up, AT&T has stated that you will be able to order the V10 starting tomorrow (Oct. 27th). However, the stores will be slightly behind. The device won’t be on store shelves until Nov. 6th.
In case you need a fresher, the V10 is replaces the G4 from earlier in the year as LG’s new flagship. While some specs are the same (Snapdragon 808 SoC, 16MP rear camera with f/1.8 aperture and OIS 2.0, and removable 3,000mAh battery), there are a few substantial improvements. An extra gig of RAM brings the tally to 4GB now, 64GB of on-board storage is standard, and there are two rather unique features above the main screen: two front cameras options and a secondary screen for Always-On functionality.
The V10 was initially shown off in five color variants, but AT&T has said it will only have the Space Black or Opal Blue. The device will be available on AT&T’s Next program, for either 30 months ($23.34), 24 months ($29.17), or 20 months ($35). But if you’re old-fashioned, you can still sign a 2-year contract to get the V10 for $249.99.
Also, at launch, AT&T will give you a free 200GB microSD card, extra battery and battery charging cradle with the V10. That’s a pretty enticing deal, especially if you value LG’s continued support for a removable battery and microSD expansion.
But wait, there’s more! For the more budget-conscious crowd, AT&T is also launching the G Vista 2 on Nov. 6th as well. In case you missed it, the Vista 2 has a 1080P IPS LCD, 13MP rear camera, and 3,000mAh battery (same as the V10). It will come in Metallic Grey and also be available on the Next program: 30 months ($14.97), 24 months ($18.71), 20 months ($22.45), or $49.99 with two-year contract.
For T-Mobile users, the Un-Carrier was quick to respond with its launch details. You’ll be able to order the V10 starting Wednesday, Oct. 28th. If you prefer to pick it up in stores (or if you’re on JUMP! On Demand), it’ll be on shelves Friday, Oct. 30th.
T-Mobile’s retail price of the V10 is $599.99. This translates to $25/month over two years, if you choose to finance with $0 down. $25/month is also what you’ll pay if you JUMP! to it. You can pre-register for the V10 here.
What do you think? Are you gonna be picking up a V10 soon?

AT&T officially announces the LG V10 for October 27th orders, lands November 6th
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
AT&T has put out some release details for LG’s next big device release this morning. The LG V10 will be making its appearance through AT&T starting October 27th and will officially be available on November 6th.
The new device packs much of what makes the LG G4 great, like the 16MP laser auto-focus camera, replaceable battery and micro SD card slot. However, the V10 kicks things up a notch in a variety of places. For starters the screen is a 5.7-inch Quad HD Quantum IPS display with an always on second screen experience. For the security concerned, and those wishing to take full advantage of digital payment systems, they also finally added a fingerprint sensor as well. LG also saw fit to add another gig of RAM giving the V10 4GB’s total. They also doubled the standard internal storage offering to 64GBs. The front of the V10 now gives you dual 5MP cameras, one with an 80 degree lens and the other with a 120 degree lens.
“LG V10 is yet another example of how we provide customers with a variety of smartphones to meet their needs,” said Jeff Bradley, senior vice president, Device Marketing and Developer Services, AT&T Mobility. “The V10 was designed for photo and video enthusiasts that are looking to take high-quality content, but don’t want to carry around a bulky camera. One of the coolest features is the photo and video editing software included on the phone. You can highlight the best features of the content you create and can share it instantly with friends and family.”
Would be owners of the new power house can order theirs at an AT&T store on online starting tomorrow. As with any device from AT&T, you have a multitude of ways to pick on up and will come in two colors, Space Black and Blue Opal.
Notice the extra perks there at the bottom? Just like with the launch of the LG G4, LG is handing out some sweet kick downs if you buy the new device by way of a 200GB micro SD card, an extra battery and a charging cradle. I’d get one just for those reasons alone. However, the fine print states you have to make your purchase between October 30th and November 15th. That doesn’t seem to give early adopters who jump on ordering it tomorrow a real incentive.

LG announced the V10 late last month, and now it will be coming to AT&T tomorrow, October 27. Users will be able to begin ordering the new device from AT&T’s online store at that point, but not anywhere else, as the device won’t be coming to AT&T’s brick-and-mortar stores until November 6.

However, if you choose one of AT&T’s Next installment plans, you can get it for as little as $23.34 per month. And for a limited time, users who order the device will get a complimentary 200GB microSD card, an extra battery, and an extra battery charging cradle.

LG’s dual-screen V10 phone reaches AT&T and T-Mobile this week
When LG promised that its unique V10 smartphone would reach the US soon after its Korean launch, it wasn’t kidding around. Both AT&T and T-Mobile have announced that you can order the dual screen, dual-selfie cam device this week — October 27th and 28th, respectively. The AT&T version comes in black or opal blue, and will cost you either $250 on a two-year contract or $29 per month on a similarly lengthy installment plan. You’ll get a 200GB microSD card, an extra battery and a charging cradle if you order quickly, too. The T-Mobile model doesn’t come with those perks, but it’s potentially cheaper at $25 per month (on a two-year payment plan) or $600 outright. Just be prepared to wait a little while if you insist on trying the V10 in-store. T-Mobile won’t carry it until October 30th, and you’ll be waiting until November 6th to see it at an AT&T shop.
LG temporarily suspends Marshmallow update for the G4
After shamelessly bragging that it was the first third-party manufacturer to start rolling out the Android 6.0 update two weeks ago, it looks like LG may now have run into some serious technical difficulties as it has today “temporarily suspended” distribution of Marshmallow for the G4 in Poland.
Unfortunately, no information was given with regards to when the upgrade is scheduled to start making the rounds again, but we can only hope that it will be sooner rather than later. In the meantime, G4 owners all around the world will have to make do with Lollipop for a little while longer.

T-Mobile starting online orders for the LG V10 on October 28
T-Mobile announced that it will begin selling the LG V10 this week on October 28, with its brick-and-mortar stores getting it on October 30, almost a week before AT&T will have it available at its retail stores.
However, customers who are on AT&T will have a hard time getting the device if they’re locked into a contract or installment plan already. That’s what is unique about T-Mobile’s JUMP! On Demand program, allowing its customers to upgrade their device up to three times per year. That said, if you haven’t used your three upgrades already, turning your phone in and upgrading to the LG V10 should be no problem. As a quick refresher, T-Mobile’s JUMP! On Demand program will let you upgrade at $0 down and just $25 per month.
One of the highlights of the LG V10 is its “always on” secondary display, which will either give users quick access to applications or highlight important information, such as the time, weather, and so on.
Here’s what’s under the hood of the LG V10:
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 hexa-core processor
- 5.7-inch Quad HD (2560×1440) IPS Quantum display with a secondary 2.1-inch (160x 1040) IPS Quantum display
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 hexa-core processor
- 4GB of RAM
- 64GB of internal storage with microSD card slot for up to an additional 2TB
- 16MP rear camera with F1.8 Aperture and OIS 2.0 / 5MP front dual-lens camera
- 3000mAh removable battery
- Android 5.1.1 Lollipop
- 6 x 79.3 x 8.6mm, 192g
- LTE-A Cat. 6 support
Much of that looks similar to the LG G4. However, LG is hoping that the V10 will be the go-to device for capturing video, as the company included an array of different video options in this device, including manual controls for many video configurations. In fact, LG partnered with a YouTube channel in order to show off just what it’s capable of.

LG’s V10 goes up against a Barret sniper rifle, gets blown away
LG demonstrated the durability of its V10 flagship in its “In-Between Moments” advert, with the handset being shown to fall from a table onto a hard surface without suffering any damage. The V10 has, however, been pitted against a deadlier foe than a mere hard surface, namely a .50 cal Barret sniper rifle wielded by FullMag’s Richard Ryan. As you can imagine, the rifle that can crack engine blocks makes short work of the V10, with impressive results.
The first shot in the video skids off the V10’s display, leaving a trace of its copper jacket on the screen while the second (and last) shot simply obliterates the handset. Bits fly off everywhere in slow-motion glory. Which isn’t surprising considering the .50 cal projectile speeds along at around 2,800 feet-per-second. Tak a look for yourself in the video below.

LG V10 isn’t selling particularly well, even in South Korea
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
If you’re LG, you’d generally expect that any devices you release will sell pretty well in your native country of South Korea – after all, they own the second or third largest population of smartphones there. Unfortunately, it would appear that this is quite far from the truth as the recently released LG V10 didn’t even make it into the top 10 of smartphones sold domestically in its first week on the market. The LG V10 came in 15th, beaten out by the chart topping Samsung Galaxy Note 5, and Samsung’s other various devices like the Galaxy A5 and Galaxy Grand Max making up the rest of the top 10.
That’s got to be disappointing for LG who billed the LG V10 as a premium device to replace the LG G4 in the interim before the LG G5’s release. And it’s not all that bad a phone either – if anything, it offers one of the more unique experiences on any smartphone with its second display and wide-angle selfie technology. It’s a stark reminder of how competitive the smartphone market is right now – even with companies putting everything they can into a smartphone, sometimes they can’t even get decent sales out of it.
