What to expect from LG at IFA 2017?

By now it’s clear that the star of the two will be the upcoming V30 and V30 Plus smartphones. We’ve been hearing about the two smartphones for a while. While we do know a lot about the V30, the company is yet to share some major details about the V30 Plus. We’ll definitely find out more about the V30 Plus during the company’s presentation in the afternoon. Speaking of the V30, the flagship smartphone will get a 6-inch, 2,880 x 1,440, resolution plastic OLED (P-OLED) display.

Thanks to several leaks, we also know that LG is dropping the secondary display (previously, seen on the V10 and V20) from the V30. Instead, the phone will use a floating bar to access regularly used apps. LG V30 will likely to boost a top-of-the-line Snapdragon 835 processor, 4GB RAM, 64GB storage, and a 3300mAh battery. The high-end phone is likely to have a Hi-Fi Quad-DAC built-in. LG says the V30 will come with the company’s UX 6.0+ that will take advantage of the 18:9 FullVision OLED display. A dual camera setup has been confirmed for the V30 as well.
