LG rumoured to be releasing 2018 flagship in June
LG isn’t giving up on the mobile business just yet. And while the company has all but scrapped the G7, it looks like they’re gearing up to launch an entirely new flagship device around the middle of the year. LG’s CEO supposedly ordered the company’s mobile department to go back to the drawing board and it looks like we’re getting some news about what this entirely new flagship is going to look like. The phone, which is supposedly launching in June, is being referred to as “Judy” and will reportedly feature a “brand new design.” According to Venture Beat it will come with a 6.1-inch 18:9 Full Vision display. But instead of using OLED, Judy will reportedly feature an MLCD+ panel. This panel has an RGBW matrix with white sub-pixels. It will come with a brightness rating of 800-bits but will use 35% less power when compared to IPS LCD tech.
Some of the other key specs reportedly include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, 64GB of internal storage, dual 16-megapixel rear cameras with an f/1.6 aperture for each sensor, 4GB of RAM IP68 dust and water resistance, and support for HDR10. It’ll supposedly have “boombox” stereo speakers, wireless charging, its own digital assistant, and AI camera technology that we’ll be seeing at a new V30 model coming out at MWC.
