Weight
This flagship smart phone weighs 159g.
LG G5 OS and Power
The LG G5 contains a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor and 4GB of RAM, which is the same specs configuration we're expecting to see in other flagship phones like the Samsung Galaxy S7.
It'll only come in one internal storage size, 32GB, but don't worry, you can upgrade that with a microSD card slot, up to a supposed 2TB of storage - whenever such a capacity comes out, of course.
LG G5 runs Android Marshmallow although, as expected, it's heavily heavily skinned by LG.
Battery, Sim and Card Slot
LG is keeping the microSD card slot and removable battery, even with the metal unibody look, and it does this with an innovative new design.
The LG G5 battery tray acts a lot like a SIM card tray does in some flagship phones. It's just a really large slot in which the phone chin comes off. The MicroSD and SIM card trays are one piece that
come out in tandem.
Although LG doesn't call it the "Magic Slot", its phone does indeed contain a way to add accessories such as a camera upgrade, new audio technology and extra battery power. It seems to take inspiration from Google's Project Ara with a modular design at the bottom of the phone.
Display
You're never going to have to turn on the LG G5 display to check the time because it features an always-on display that shows dimly lit critical information, even when it's off.
Touting it as the screen that never sleeps, it shows the time, date and up to four notifications icons
LG G5 Camera
There's more than one LG G5 camera on the back of the phone, and that's exciting news if you ever had to back up in order to properly snap a wide photo.
It includes both normal angle and wide angle lenses, reaching as far as 135 degrees, wider than the human eye.
The wider camera is just 8 megapixels (MP), but the 16MP is meant for high quality photos at a camera angle.
The front-facing camera is also 8MP but has a normal angle. The ground breaking idea behind the LG V10 and its wide selfie camera didn't make this cut here.
Case Cover
As you can see, there are going to several third-party LG G5 cases to protect your new phone, but the South Korean company is also touting its own first-party LG G5 Quick Cover case.
This form-fitting metallic case not only gives us a better idea of what the phone will look like, it features a window to see the always-on display notifications and touch controls allows it to answer incoming calls.
Its see-through mesh lets you answer (or dismiss) calls without ever having to flip open the top part of the case. LG made sure the metallic finish matches the more luxurious, metal-based LG G5.
LG G5 RIVALS
The LG G5’s biggest rival is likely to be the Samsung Galaxy S7. This phone will arrive at the same time as the G5, with an announcement a few hours after the LG’s MWC press conference.
Not only does it have a huge name behind it, but rumors point to a sleek, premium design, a QHD screen, an improved camera and a whole lot of power.
The HTC One M10 will also probably be launching soon and while not much is yet known about that it’s sure to have a stylish look and flagship specs.
