A few days ago we told you about LG and I had that in the Smartphone sector, the South Korean firm was not very well in the second quarter of the year. Chinese technological thrust and pressure exerted other firms such as Samsung, which, as I discussed, earned record profits during the spring, puts on the ropes at this company headquartered in Seoul. And it is that LG the fact of staying at the top in the field of mobile telephony, and also, follow one of the favorite options for discerning consumers, not him is proving easy.
To try to take up the slack in which is currently, and in a context which is already beginning to accuse certain saturation, and in which we are witnessing the launch of new models at a faster rate as happens in other media such as tablets, offer something novel to serve to stay ahead of rivals, it may be key to success. The South Korean giant has taken note of this and therefore has confirmed some of the features of its next phablet, the V20, pretending to be the ship company logo at least, in the final of the year and that you now have more.
Design
Before begin to talk of them benefits with which will have this device, should clarify that which is have revealed of way official, are very scarce. Among the unknowns, also are those related to the visual aspect. The only thing that has been able to meet and just, through photographs, is that metal would be the element chosen for the covers and that the V20 would have an reader footsteps, following in the latter case, the trend already consolidated this year.
Screen
Characteristics of image, return to find us with confirmed data and others which are still unknown. Sites like Android support echoed of official information which ensure that the V20 will feature a diagonal of 5.7 inches, large dimensions but are not the largest in the market. There is speculation about the disappearance or the maintenance of the second screen, present in its predecessor, the V10 and who would act as notifications panel. In terms of cameras, the resolution that would count is unknown. However, it assumes that will count with an a set of dual lenses.
Performance
Qualcomm has been chosen by LG to make the V20 can quickly get to compete against their rivals. For this, will be with one of them last members of the family Snapdragon, in concrete, the 820 that began to market is to late of 2015 and that brings get speeds maximum of 2.2 Ghz, compatibility with it technology of load fast developed by it signature American, and a saving of resources close to the 40% respect to his brother, the Snapdragon 810. In terms of memory, only knows that it will feature a 4 GB RAM, something to consider if we take into account that there are terminals reaching 6. It is pending to confirm the storage capacity that will be.
System operating
This phablet software is what has attracted the attention of a multitude of technology experts. If it is confirmed the information provided by the own LG, in Korean, and portals as The Verge, the newest member of the family, would be the first terminal of the market with be equipped as standard with Android 7th Nougat, which is an important step with respect to its competitors. With this measure, the device manufacturers aim to push it toward the high end. However, this would not be the only product of the company that included the most current version of the software of the Green robot, since previous as the G5 and the V10, could also receive it soon.
When it will see?
The next phablet of the South Korean firm will be presented officially in September. This is intended to take advantage of pull given by the departure of Nougat, expected at the end of August, and at the same time, position itself in part, thanks to the software, as a good option within the terminals high range of the Christmas campaign. It will be next month when its definitive characteristics as well as its price and different arrival dates to the main markets in which it operates LG be disclosed.
Other bets for LG
To try to overcome in the best possible way, falling revenues and the decrease in the number of units sold of which I spoke a few days ago, LG seems to target its strategies towards the middle range, where we can see more clearly the existing in the sector competitiveness. However, the creation of modular terminals is another of the tactics followed by Seoul to put aside their rivals. However, and as I have mentioned on other occasions, the time will be which will determine if the V20 meets the expectations of their manufacturers. Do you think that this next phablet will change the direction of the company and place it again as a reference? You have available more information on other terminals as the X 5 so that you can say to yourselves.
The article thus is V20, the phablet from LG that will come with Android 7 Nougat was published in TabletZona.
