LG finally went public with the specs and features of its 5.7-inch V20 super-phone on Wednesday, and much like last year’s V10, the new model is geared toward “storytellers”—folks who depend on their phones to capture audio, still images and video.
Sure, the V20 is the first phone to ship with Android 7.0 Nougat. And LG is introducing yet another battery-swapping scheme (which I tested during myhands-on). But more than anything else, LG is banking on a bunch of fancy components and algorithms to convince content creators that the V20 is the only reasonable choice among supersized phablets. Let’s dig in, and see what’s inside.
