LG officially unveils Q6 line

Earlier today, we reported two new LG devices were headed our way. But we were missing the addition of one more unit: the Q6a. While the specs for the Q6 and the Q6+ are pretty much on point, we get the added information of all the devices sporting 3,000mAh batteries, LTE support, and having a Qulacomm Snapdragon 435 processor. All Q6 devices run on Android 7.1.1 Nougat, too. The Q6a is considered the entry-level device. It has the same 5.5-inch 18:9 FHD+ FullVision display as the other two and 13-megapixel rear and 5-megapixel wide-angle front camera as the other two. But this time, the Q6a only has 2GB of RAM and 16GB. The Q6 has 3GB RAM/32GB storage, while the Q6 has 4GB RAM/64 storage. No word yet on pricing but it’s said the devices are coming to Asia in August and will later be available in North America, Latin America, and Europe.

LG set to unveil mid-range smartphone with 18:9 display

Tomorrow there will be a new LG device hitting the market. What’s special about it is it’ll be the first mid-range handset with an 18:9 display. LG is banking on the FullVision display we’ve seen in the G6, making this seem like the rumoured “G6 mini.” As the teaser image above shows, the upcoming Q6 takes its design cues from the LG flagship. The phone will have a 5.5-inch Full HD display (or rather Full HD+ with its taller resolution), an aluminum frame, wide-angle camera, and “one hand operation.” The last one refers most likely to the compact form factor.

Some reports coming out of South Korea say that there will be more than one device that’ll debut tomorrow. They say a Plus version of the Q6 is also going to launch tomorrow with more storage and RAM. The Q6 is rumored to have 32GB of storage and 3GB of RAM, while the Q6 Plus will supposedly have 64GB of storage and 4GB of RAM. No word on the possible processor that the device will use. The cameras coming to the device include a 13-megapixel rear shooter and a 5-megapixel front camera. The devices are expected to be available globally with pricing starting at 500,000 won (around CA$560).
