LG's latest flagship phablet, the LG V20, is about to make its official debut later today, but one last leak reveals the purported specs and pricing beforehand.
The rumor mill is always churning and the highly anticipated LG V20 has leaked on several occasions so far, trying to paint a picture of what to expect. Just a few days ago, the smartphone surfaced in a video, and now it popped up once more ahead of the big unveiling.
The latest leak now comes from a retailer called Overseas Electronics which, despite its name, seems to be based in the United States. It remains to be seen whether the listed specs and pricing are the real deal or are simply based on leaks that surfaced so far, but it nonetheless offers an idea of what could be on the table.
According to the retail listing, the LG V20 will feature a 5.7-inch display with a QHD resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor paired with Adreno 530 graphics and 4 GB of RAM, and a hefty 4,000 mAh battery. The LG V20 is expected to sport a secondary display as well, and the latest leak notes that this display will measure 2.1 inches diagonally and have a resolution of 1,040 x 160 pixels.
In terms of software, the new LG V20 will run Google's latest Android 7.0 Nougat straight out of the box.
The LG V20 is further expected to have a 16-megapixel rear camera and a 5-megapixel front shooter, but this new leak makes no mention of the second rear camera. Previous rumors hinted at a dual rear camera setup with 16- and 8-megapixel rear shooters.
When it comes to pricing, Overseas Electronics lists the dual-SIM LG V20 with a price tag of $799.99 unlocked and even allows users to add the device to their shopping cart and make the purchase. Considering that it's not yet clear just how legitimate this listing is, however, it's highly advisable to wait until the device is official and buy it from trusted retailers.
Nevertheless, the price point sounds quite plausible considering that the LG V20 will hit the scene as a high-end smartphone with advanced specifications.
The LG V20 should formally break cover later today, which means that it will all become clear soon enough. As always, we'll keep you posted as soon as we get the official scoop, so stay tuned. In the meantime, take all leaks with a grain of salt.
