LG G6 With 5.7-Inch IPS Display, Google Assistant Launched at MWC 2017

LG G6 With 5.7-Inch FullVision Display, Google Assistant Launched at MWC 2017

LG G6, the new LG flagship smartphone, has been unveiled at the company's launch event at MWC 2017 in Barcelona on Sunday. The LG G6 follows the company's 'Less Artificial, More Intelligence' theme.

 Juno Cho, President of Mobile Communications Company, LG Electronics, at the company's keynote stressed that the smartphone war isn't about specifications but about usability. The LG G6 highlight is of course the presence of the Google Assistant, the first non-Google Pixel smartphone to sport the virtual assistant.

    

The hallmark of the G6 is its display - a 5.7-inch panel fitted in the same footprint as the 5.3-inch G5. The trick? It's in a first-on-a-phone 18:9 aspect ratio (we could call it 2:1, but it won't be immediately noticeable it's taller than a 16:9 screen, LG's marketing team thought likewise). Its resolution is 2,880x1,440 pixels, it complies to the HDR 10 and Dolby Vision HDR video standards, and LG promises a 600-nit max brightness in direct sunlight. Well-worthy of a high-end smartphone, then.It is running on Qualcomm Snapdragon 821; quad-core CPU (2xKryo@2.35GHz + 2xKryo@1.6GHz), Adreno 530 GPU chipset.

 G6 comes with a pair of cameras on its back - one covers a crazy 125-degree field of view, the other - a more pedestrian 71 degrees. Just like the G5 and V20 before it, only not quite - the G6 packs two 13MP shooters, now in 4:3 aspect, instead of the 16MP+8MP 16:9 configurations of previous models. Both new cameras cover a slightly narrower FOV than before. As for selfies - it's just a 5MP snapper on the front, but again one that gets a lot in the frame - it covers a 100-defree field of view.
