LGV series phones have become some of our favorites for their focus on content creation and multimedia we have our invites for the press events on August 31st in Berlin to see what LG is going to deliver for their next-generation phablet its LG v 30 rumor roundup time goodbyes ticker hello taller screen the V 30 is getting stretched to that 2x1 aspect ratio so it doesn't make a lot of sense to dedicate even more space on the front just to include a secondary display what we're really excited to find out though is if the V 30 will get info LED display there's been some talk behind the scenes about daydream compatibility and that means walking away from an LCD we haven't seen an OLED on an LG since the Flex 2 and the problems with the Flex 2 really didn't have anything to do with the screen was actually a pretty decent screen looking at some of the design rumors since the g4 LG struggled to really nail that cohesive brand aesthetic the V 20 arriving is a charmingly ugly experiment something of a mishmash between old blackberries and the LG g5 but the g6 was a phenomenal step in the right direction delivering a lot of the design cues consumers seem to be responding to given that critical success and the taller display aspect ratio we're not really going to be surprised when the V 30 arrives looking like a g6 like a g6 like a g6 I only have a few more months where I can have use that joke a small concern from some of those renders the subtle curves at the edges of the glass for the screen might make it harder to fit this device with a screen protector not a lot of phones anymore coming with that flat front face the internals probably won't be too surprising for a flagship phone in 2017 the resolution on that front face a wider quad HD 2880 by 1440 it's very likely this is going to come with a Qualcomm 835 in tow and likely launch with 64 gigabytes of built-in storage may be an option taking us up to 128 and we're unlikely to see much of a battery bump the V 30 probably arriving with the same 3200 milliamp hour capacity but instead of a removable back for that water resistance this battery will be built into the phone now what we don't know is if LG is going to continue this feature fragmentation between different markets some areas getting wireless charging other areas getting the quad acker 6 gigabytes of RAM we're hoping this phone continues to try record of v-series phones being the everything in the kitchen sink crown jewel flagship devices in that all areas will get to play with all goodies of course one of the main features people are going to be looking for the dual cameras on the back it's very likely we're going to see matched 13 megapixel shooters just like we've got on the back of the g6 so we are hoping that they'll increase the sensor size given the additional volume inside this larger phone if these renders are accurate this is also the closest we've seen these two image sensors positioned next to each other we think it's pretty likely there's going to be a normal field of view and the second sensor is going to be an ultra wide we don't think LG is going to shift over to a zoom sensor like on the iPhone but given LG's prowess in photo manipulation maybe putting the two sensors closer together might be able to deliver some of those software background blur depth of field tricks that last major bullet point for a V Series phone it's got to have killer audio for the headphone jack we need that high quality DAC feeding a beautiful signal to a killer amp that can really drive your headphones and of course we also need that multi microphone array not just for recording high-quality audio notes but then also for your video being able to tune those microphones to capture your source what's less likely is whether or not we'll see any significant improvements to speaker tech given the form factor changes we think it's unlikely that they're going to try and pack in stereo speakers this round that brings us to pricing and shipping it's looking pretty legit that the V 30 is going to be available sometime around September 15th in South Korea launching later in the United States possibly at the end of September how much is this thing going to cost it's a tricky question to dig into right now rumors are pointing somewhere around 800,000 South Korean one one not one if you hit the exchange rate that's close to $700 US but compared to the competition the new iPhone the Galaxy Note 8 coming out we don't think a higher price would be completely unjustified in this market that and the v20 launched closer to $800 when it came out last year it's still over $800 if you shop it on AT&T but the last major point for any LG product release and the question I want to throw out you find folks is let's say the V 30 is the baller most coolest phone that's ever been released do we think LG is actually going to back it up with a savvy ad can pain to go out there and reach those consumers the v20 had the benefit of the note 7 mostly being absent from store shelves last year and yet we still very rarely saw this in any kind of traditional advertising or traditional media drop us a comment down below how can L G step up their game reach out to consumers build those happy fields when buying a new smartphone as always thanks so much for watching be sure to subscribe to this channel for
