On February 21, LG has scheduled an event where it will officially present the eexpected LG G5, the next flagship of the Korean company. And now we can imagine what its design will be like.
Ya we saw a series of conceptual renders that showed how it could become the successor to the LG G4, but now a diagram showing the complete layout of the LG G5, showed a clear change from its predecessor. Will it integrate a fingerprint sensor under the terminal's camera?
This will be the LG G5, the next workhorse of the Korean manufacturer
For now we know that the new LG G5 will most likely differ from its predecessors by its body made of metal. Another novelty comes with the situation of the power buttons and volume control.
For several years now, the Seoul-based manufacturer has chosen to place these buttons on the back of the device. The truth is that once you got used to it, it was quite comfortable, but the LG design team has thought that, if they incorporate a fingerprint sensor On the back of the device, users could make a mistake when trying to use it, so the volume control buttons and on / off of the terminal will be on one of the sides of the LG G5.
If this diagram is true, the next LG G4 will have measurements of 149.4mm high, 73.9mm long and 8.2mm wide, being a bit thinner and narrower than the LG G4 (148.9 x 76.1 x 9.8 mm).
Regarding the technical characteristics, rumors suggest that the G5 screen will consist of a 5.5 inch IPS panel which will reach a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels. Its silicon heart will be made up of a processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, along with 3GB of DDR4 RAM, expected in a flagship.
Its camera is a mystery, although it is most likely to have between 16 and 20 megapixels, in addition to automatic focus, LED flash and optical image stabilization. One of the great novelties comes with its removable battery. We already talked to you about the possibility that the LG G5 has a design that allows the battery to be removed, and after seeing the diagram it seems that this rumor is gaining strength.
Finally it is expected that the LG G5 comes with a USB Type-C, same as other models like the OnePlus Two. Now we just have to wait until February 21 to confirm these technical characteristics.
What do you think of the design of the LG G5? Do you think it will really have a removable battery despite having a metal body?
