LG V10 Hands-On: Are Two Displays Better Than One?

2015-10-01
hey what's up everyone this is Todd Hazleton from TechnoBuffalo I'm here checking out the brand new LG v10 it's a brand new phone also a brand new series of phones so we have the juice bore from earlier this year and now LG is complementing that with the v10 so you're looking at a really awesome device that it's built out of stainless steel they said similar material to what's used in omega watches actually show that's that border running around it you can see and it's built to really withstand force and drops then you've got this sort of silicon based based back panel here the fingerprint reader volume controls 16 megapixel camera dual LED flash still the laser for autofocus and then of course like the rumor said there's that secondary display you can see it right there up top and it's a technically always-on see so I was a little dim before and then you can power it right up with that back button and the finger per meter and it sort of disappears but not really if I swipe on in the tread you have at the camera here in my hand you get a whole set of other controls there so you can put whatever you want customized with different icons or whatnot settings if you wanted social networks say for example Instagram or something and you always want it there but when it's in the let's see if I can get it back into the screen off mode it's also used and I don't know if I can either there we go the shortcuts here you can get the flashlight real quick power that on the quick memo all kinds of other things like that when the screen is off other ones we're also looking at let me try to get the light right here but there's two five megapixel cameras up front ones wide-angle ones not you could take pictures let me see if I can even get a picture of myself here hanging out you can take pictures using all three cameras let's see here flopping around so there I am and let's see then I can also activate the other camera so you can see I'm switching between the two one just has a wider angle than the other one and I believe somewhere in the modes you can actually access the rear camera at the same time too but one of the cool things to see that top screen there that's the secondary display giving you additional options in the camera and LG said one of the one of the points here was to create a really good camera video experience so they said the g4 with photography but this is really about video and those kind of things and other features on the bottom here you've got the 3.5 millimeter headphone jack it's got special chips right there and on the inside right near it that allow you to up the audio experience I don't have the exact figures on me but improve it using the onboard audio chips other features android 5.1.1 four gigs of ram a 3000 milliamp hour battery you can remove it 64 gigs of storage you also have a Snapdragon 808 processor I'm not sure the clock speed and then you can also add up to 200 gigabytes of additional storage using a microSD card slot and you'll notice that unlike the g4 this has actually a flat screen so there's no curve or anything like that really the focus is on this additional screen instead at the top so I just only give you another quick look at that with the device powered off this is gonna be pretty convenient I think for folks yeah you just pick up your phone look at that they said you know the entire day this will drain about 5% of battery life so really not that much and they think you'll actually end up saving battery life so while it's draining it on the phone you'll actually end up saving it because you're not you know going back and forth and just turning the phone on and off and on and off and all that so otherwise software features real quick I mean pretty typical stuff here that we've seen on on devices like the g4 already but really you're looking at and some actually I just noticed there's some blown wear as well from Verizon this is a Verizon brand device but as of right now LG's not telling us what the carriers will be but we should know a lot more very shortly on the site keep it directed there any case quick look here at the LG v10 this is Todd a sultan from TechnoBuffalo
