Here is another picture of the LG V10 and its multiple displays
Earlier today, another image of the upcoming LG V10 was shared online. The new image (seen above) does confirm that the handset will indeed have two displays. The main display, which is allegedly 5.7 inches, is paired with a ticker above it alongside the front-facing camera(s). This ticker offers quick access to apps and will likely show previews to select notifications. And notice that there seems to be two cameras on the front of the V10. We’ll have to wait and see how LG explains that.
Here are the specifications being rumored around the web:
- 5.7-inch Quad HD (2560×1440) display
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 807 processor
- 3GB of RAM
- 64GB of internal storage
- 16MP rear camera
Could this be what LG will announce at its event being held on October 1?

Deal: Pick up a brand new 32GB unlocked LG G4 from eBay for $399.99
It seems like the LG G4 has been consistently dropping in price ever since it made its way to market, and that still holds true today. If you’ve been waiting to get your hands on LG’s latest flagship but aren’t keen on paying the full retail price, there’s a deal on eBay right now that may be worth your while.
Right now, you can purchase a brand new factory unlocked LG G4 (H815) with 32GB of storage for just $399.99. Since this phone is factory unlocked, it won’t come with any carrier bloatware, which is a big plus. You’ll be able to use it on either AT&T or T-Mobile’s networks, but it should be noted that it doesn’t come with band 12 LTE support. What’s more, you can select from various color options including Black, White, Gold, Black Leather, Brown Leather, Red Leather or Orange Leather. You don’t need to pay any extra money for the leather options, either.

Although it may have been out-shined by Samsung’s Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, the LG G4 is still a really nice phone. It sports a big 5.5-inch Quad HD display, a Snapdragon 808 processor, 3GB of RAM, microSD expansion up to 128GB, and has a very powerful 16MP rear camera. The 3000mAh battery is also removable, which is something many newer flagships have been ditching as of late.

LG G4 Pro rumoured to still be in the pipeline. Somewhere.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
For some time now, we’ve been hearing about a larger LG G4 device called the LG G4 Pro – or LG G Pro 3, depending on who you ask. It was previously billed as a “super-premium” smartphone by LG executives, but all news of it has disappeared until now, with leaker @OnLeaks confirming that there are still plans for the device – though nothing beyond that is available. LG’s LG G4 is 5.5-inches and many would say that is already close enough to a phablet-sized device – thanks to its thin bezels, the LG G4 manages to be quite compact, so there is space in LG’s lineup for a larger device, perhaps even with a stylus, though that’s all up in the air at the moment.
So called #LG G4 Pro still intended… pic.twitter.com/wIhFhgvPpK
— OnLeaks (@OnLeaks) September 21, 2015
http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.jsPrevious rumours for the device pegged it to have the new Snapdragon 820 processor, 4GB RAM and 27MP camera, which kind of sounds more like a wishlist than a genuine rumour. What we do know is that the Snapdragon 820 won’t be sighted in a device until at least Q1 or Q2 next year, a period when LG should be readying its LG G5 for launch – no doubt the launch of another flagship device could cause some timing issues.

Mid-range LG Class official, complete with metal body
LG has recently been teasing a new smartphone launch for September 21st and today, the Korean manufacturer has unwrapped its new mid-range LG Class smartphone. Rather than the flagship that many were hoping for, the LG Class is a mid-range device with premium specs and an affordable price that is set to be launched only in Korea.

Looking at LG’s new device and we can see the Class features a 5-inch 720p IPS display with 1280 x 720 pixels resolution and 293 pixels per inch density. The display is quite interesting as LG have gone for a 2.5D curved glass panel but one thing that’s immediately off-putting about the LG Class is the unsightly bezels. The handset is powered by a quad-core 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 SoC clocked at 1.2GHz with an Adreno 306 GPU, 2GB LPDDR3 RAM and 16GB internal storage, which can be expanded up to an incredible 2TB using a microSD card.
Like many of LG’s smartphones, the LG Class comes with the power and volume keys on the back beneath the camera and just to the right of this, is the rather oddly-placed loud speaker. LG say this position doesn’t impact on the speaker quality and promise the 1W (watt) output offers ‘clear sound’. The camera itself is a 13MP premium image sensor as found in the LG G4 while the front camera is an 8MP snapper that comes equipped with a range of software features including Beauty SHot and Gesture Interval Shot. The latter is especially impressive as it lets you capture four images (2 seconds apart) just by holding up your hand and making a fist in front of the camera.
Other notable specs of the LG Class include 4G LTE support, a plethora of connectivity options and a 2,050 mAh battery; the battery especially is an interesting decision as – like some of its rivals – LG has sacrificed the removable battery in favour of an all-metal build and 7.4mm thickness. Is this the start of a trend that will see future LG flagship devices feature non-removable batteries and will LG finally deliver an all-metal flagship smartphone in the near future?
The LG Class is available today from a number of Korean carriers at a price of 399,300 won (approx. $340) and it comes in Blue Black, Silver or Gold colour options. LG has previously confirmed that its smartphone announced today will only be available in Korea which suggests we won’t see this handset released elsewhere but of course, we’ll let you know if we hear otherwise.

LG show us what its new Class smartphone has to offer in South Korea
Drawing a close to weeks of endless rumors, LG has today taken the wraps off its latest smartphone in South Korea. The Class will be up for grabs in Gold, Silver, Blue or Black colorways from all four major Korean carriers later today for 399,300 Won ($340).
The LG Class sports a 5-inch HD IPS display, a 1.2GHz Snapdragon 410 processor, an Adreno 306 GPU, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal memory (expandable up to a whopping 2TB via microSD), a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera and a 2,050mAh battery.
As the handset is part of LG’s G-branded lineup, the volume rocker and power button are both located on the back of the device, which makes the phone more ergonomic as it fits neatly in your hand, thereby making it easier to use.

Android Authority this week – September 19, 2015
It’s been a busy week in the world of Android, and much of the buzz was generated by an unlikely player – BlackBerry. Check out our BlackBerry Venice close-up and the other news of the week: Qualcomm announced details about Snapdragon 820 and Quick Charge 3; more rumors about the HTC One A9 surfaced; Google announced the date of its Nexus event; Google Now on Tap became available; Amazon introduced its newest Android tablets; and details about the next Chromecast leaked out.
Inside AA HQ
Can we still be excited for new smartphones? In a world where leaks are the norm and truly new features and designs are increasingly rare, is there room left for genuine surprises? Matt wrote a very interesting piece on how the “leak culture” makes it increasingly hard to experience the joyful wonderment that used to accompany new product announcements “back in the day.” But while genuine surprises are harder to come by, we just can’t quit our addiction. “It is this lust for more that paradoxically encourages further leaks, and yet in the process, only further traps us into the vicious cycle of information excess,” as Matt puts it.
It’s definitely ironic that just a couple of days after Matt published his post, we brought you an exciting (and exclusive) leak. Perhaps even more ironic, the device that’s got all of us excited is a slider-phone with a mechanical keyboard from BlackBerry. And it runs Android. Those are words I never thought I would ever type. Check out hands-on images and video tour of the BlackBerry Venice, and thanks again to the fine folks at Baka Mobile for sending the media our way.

Google’s next phones will reportedly be the Nexus 5X and 6P
We’ve seen a few snapshots of the upcoming Nexus phones and now we may have an idea what they’ll be called. Droid Life reports that the pair of Google phones, one made by LG and the other by Huawei, will carry the labels of Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P (yes, six pee), respectively. The LG device is said to house a 5.2-inch display while the Huawei handset is rumored to carry a 5.7-inch inch screen, hence the 5 and 6 designations. We won’t have to wait too long to find out, though, as reports indicate that Google is hosting event on September 29th where the duo is expected to be revealed alongside a new Chromecast. And, of course, a look at the latest version of Android Marshmallow. Hopefully we’ll also find out what Huawei has tucked under that camera hump, too.

Report: LG set to begin mass-production of foldable displays
It’s hard to believe, but in just a couple of months, the original LG G Flex will be seeing its second anniversary. At the time, a mainstream consumer device with a bendable display was almost too good to be true. Largely written off as proof-of-concept products and nothing more, Samsung’s Korea-only Galaxy Round and the aforementioned “banana phone” ultimately gave rise to this year’s Galaxy S6 Edge and G Flex 2. By many accounts, this new plastic OLED panel concept is set to explode next year, and according to a new report, LG may be gearing up for the new display wars.
In an article published earlier today, Korean IT site etnews has stated that not only has “LG Display [started] mass-producing foldable display products” but “it decided to supply its foldable display products to a global business in the U.S. and started its preparation to produce them.”
The source goes on to explain that “It is likely [LG’s] first customer will be a global software (SW) business, and this business’s goal is to challenge Samsung Electronics’ and Apple’s strongholds in high-end Smartphone market with foldable Smartphones.” Clearly the company is not Apple (who apparently uses LG to provide the OLED displays on its Apple Watch), though the piece adds that this mysterious client “has not yet decided on timing to mass-produce foldable display products.”
Apparently so interested is the client that LG Display was actually able to split the investment costs in half with the company, which apparently had considered Samsung’s offerings but opted instead to sign a contract with the Galaxy-maker’s chief rival. The report also reiterated the belief that Samsung plans to introduce a foldable smartphone in January 2016, and added that LG’s business partner is “also planning to release its products at the similar time.”
The mentioned mystery
Folded over: LG had this prototype dual edge display device behind closed doors at CES 2015.
Given the rather sizable sum of cash required to construct the facilities used to produce these displays (“hundreds of millions of dollars”), it would follow that LG’s partner would clearly be a big player. The question though: who is it? Given the clearly-curved creation known as the Venice, one might assume BlackBerry was the unnamed customer, however as the company hails from Waterloo (Ontario), Canada that is clearly not the case. (For reference the financial figure quoted above may also be off given that LG had recently announced it would spent around a billion dollars on such a facility.)
There is a possibility that the writer meant to say the global business partner has offices in the US, but perhaps is not a US company. Motorola would be a likely candidate given that it had previously made use of AMOLED panels with the Nexus 6 and Moto X devices. Its parent company, Lenovo, is certainly a global player and definitely has cash to invest in new technology. Huawei might be another, though given the report didn’t mention China at all, it seems unlikely.
Perhaps the most interesting tide of the tale is why LG itself hasn’t done more with the bendable displays it clearly already can release to market. The company went on a trademarking binge a short while ago for Edge-related naming conventions, and way back at CES this January it showed off a dual edge display panel.
Whatever the case may be, it seems that by this time next year, the market may already be brimming with fantastic foldables. Only time will tell however, what comes to pass.
We would love to hear from you! Let us know who you think this mysterious partner might be. Does the potential of a new form factor interest you? Would it justify spending cash on a premium-priced-product?
Google will reportedly launch new phones as Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P
There have been plenty of leaks of the new Huawei and LG manufactured Nexus devices and now we seemingly have a solid name to put towards the leaks. According to a source, the new Nexus devices will be called the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P.
We’ve heard the Nexus 5X before, and it was thought to just be an internal codename, but it would appear that it is actually the final name for the LG Nexus. As for the Huawei variant, which is to be the bigger of the two devices, it will be known as the Nexus 6P.
Pre-release leaks are always to be taken with a pinch of salt, but with an announcement date pegged to be at the end of the month (September 29), we probably won’t have much time to wait until we see the new Nexus devices for sure.
Check out everything we know about the Nexus 5 (2015) thus far and then catch up with everything we know about the Nexus 6 (2015), too.

Google’s upcoming smartphones from LG and Huawei will be the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P
Google’s upcoming smartphones will be dubbed the LG Nexus 5X and the Huawei Nexus 6P, according to a source close to Droid-Life. Past leaks have indicated that the smartphone provided by LG will be called the Nexus 5X, but now we know the option from Huawei will be the Nexus 6P.
Past rumors have indicated that both devices will feature some very premium specifications, and a more recent leak has shown that we could see these devices become official before the end of September. And that could turn out to be true, with Google scheduling an event in San Francisco for September 29.
As we get closer to an official unveiling, more and more leaks will no doubt begin to surface. While they may have some credibility, it’s always good to take things like this with a grain of salt until we hear the official word from Google.
