So far, the South Korean brand has teased features such as a large 4,000mAh battery, a dedicated vapor chamber that should help avoid any overheating issues, and even Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 which brings performance boosts of up to 45% over last year’s Snapdragon 845. But in this latest image, the company has taken it upon itself what seems to be an accessory.
Leaked LG V50 ThinQ press render
Around one month ago, a curious rumor suggested LG was preparing an optional secondary display for one of its flagships. At the time, the compatible device was presumed to be the LG G8 ThinQ. The objective of the accessory? To offer a foldable experience while still undercutting the Samsung Galaxy Fold by a significant margin. From the look of today’s teaser, though, this extra display will actually be compatible with the LG V50 ThinQ.If this is indeed the case, the accessory should resemble a traditional flip cover. The catch being that it contains a secondary display on the inside and costs quite a bit more. Nevertheless, once in use, it should offer an experience similar to that of the ZTE Axon M, albeit a refined version with slimmer bezels.
The LG V50 ThinQ release date and pricing is yet to be announced. In the US, however, it will be available as a Sprint exclusive and should reach consumers by early summer. Pricing, on the other hand, is a bit more of a mystery. Nevertheless, the smartphone is almost guaranteed to retail at over $1000.
