LG Canada earmarks April 7 for launch of LG G6

LG's newest flagship is coming to Canada on April 7th. The LG G6, which features a bold new display format with a cinematic viewing experience, exceptional screen to body ratio, wide angle camera and more. Designed in response to consumer feedback and user opinions, the G6 offers a back-to-basics approach to premium smartphones.

Based on a brief hands on a few weeks ago, I found the LG G6 to be a solid and capable smartphone that felt great and was easy for me to manage in one hand which is thanks to its slimmer profile. I was impressed by the LG G6's manual camera controls, its various modes and also its stunning display as well as the speed and efficiency of use. The LG G6 is all-glass and while it does feel splendid, I worry that one bad tumble or drop is all it will take to shatter the phone.

“The LG G6 answers the call of consumers with the features that are most important to them, like an amazing camera packed with innovative new features and a large display, all wrapped up in a sleek and sexy design,” says Shelly Walia, Brand Manager, Mobile Communications at LG Electronics Canada. “More and more people are using their smartphones for entertainment – gaming and videos. There is huge demand for big screens. At the same time, it can’t be so large that it’s difficult to hold and operate. With the LG G6 we’ve been able to maintain an ergonomically correct design by shrinking the bezel to offer a larger display.”

The LG G6 will be available at the following carriers: Bell, Eastlink, Fido, Freedom Mobile, Koodo Mobile, Rogers, SaskTel, TELUS, Videotron and Virgin Mobile. The following retailers will also carry the LG G6 at launch; Best Buy Mobile, Tbooth wireless, WIRELESSWAVE, Wireless Etc. (located in Costco Canada nationally) and WOW! mobile boutique.

Pre-orders on the LG G6 begin with select carriers on March 15, 2017. Check with your provider for exact details and timing.
