LG’s last year flagship, the modular G5 didn’t prove to be much of a success. The major reason for its failure was that it was heavily marketed as a modular smartphone with interchangeable modules and surprisingly, LG didn’t manufacture enough modules for it to be a success. Issues like these made it hard for the G5 to progress with the same success and fame that some of its predecessors enjoyed.
However, this year, LG is hoping to turn it all around with its 2017 flagship, the G6. Most companies do everything under their power to keep their products under wraps but that doesn’t stop heroes like Evan Blass and OnLeaks from regularly leaking details about upcoming flagships and tech products.
LG G6 – Design & Display
Rumors and some renders for the LG G6 started appearing a few months back and one of the most important one of them all was the fact that LG might be ditching its modular design for its flagship. It’s almost as if they realized that when you make a modular phone, you also need to make modules for such a phone. However, seeing that the G5 wasn’t such a huge success, they decided to totally let go of the idea of making any more modular phones.
Twitter user @OnLeaks showed factory images of the gorgeous LG G6. And it looks like LG is using a unique blend of metal and glass this time around.
The leak further cemented the rumor that LG was done with modules and that it’s now moving on towards a good looking device. The renders also give a hint of what kind of material the G6 might use in its build, either glass or metal on the back with metal sides. Not only that but the renders also let us have a peek at the 2-camera configuration where one of them is a wide-angle lens along with dual-LED flash.
Not long after the first leak, we got our first real look at the LG G6 by someone anonymous who claimed to have the working prototype.
