LG has announced it will unveil its first 5G smartphone at this year’s Mobile World Congress (MWC) on February 24 in Barcelona, Spain.
The smartphone, according to LG will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 processor. The chipset will be 45 per cent faster than the previous generation processor, the company said.
Also, the unnamed 5G smartphone will come with support for a Vapor Chamber for an easy dissipation of heat to avoid overheating of the smartphone.
The new heat pipe has 2.7 times more surface area than the LG V40 ThinQ which will lead to faster heat absorption and cooling effect.
Additionally, the smartphone will be backed by a 4,000mAh battery for increased usage with 5G.
“We will lead the 5G smartphone market by accurately reflecting the needs of our customers based on solid foundation and stability,” said Ma Changmin, Vice President, Product Strategy, LG Electronics.
Furthermore, LG will join hands with various telecom operators in Korea, North America, and Europe where 5G has been introduced, starting with Sprint.
In addition to this, the LG G8 in the premium LG G series will make its entry which could feature a new gesture control system, as teased by LG.
However, we lack full concrete details as of now. To know what all LG serves on the plate at MWC 2019, we need to wait until February 24.
