LG V20 with Android Nougat, 32-bit quad DAC setup goes official


LG just announced the V20, a successor to last year’s V10 smartphone. The V20 looks quite a bit like the G5, but it isn’t a carbon copy. The phone is just 7.6mm thick, which makes it even thinner than the Galaxy Note7. LG’s new phone is the first to launch with Android 7.0 Nougat, even beating out Google’s Pixel phones in this regard. The popular Second Screen feature that was first introduced on the V10 is of course there and now it has improved visibility. With double the brightness and 50 percent larger font size compared to the V10, the smaller display located above the main display allows users to easily view notifications and alerts in outdoor situations at a glance. The LG V20 comes with the mobile user interface LG UX 5.0+ to make it easier to use the multimedia functions tailored to customer needs.

The LG V20 will go on sale in South Korea next month in Titan (gray), Silver, and Pink colors. Prices have not been announced, and neither has availability for other parts of the world. But for the U.S the Pink variant will not be available, but a pair of B&O headphones will be included with pre-orders.
