LG has finally made it to the flagship smartphone space in India with the LG G5 which will be available in the coming days. Priced at Rs 52,999, it’s worth noting that the phone is no slouch on the hardware side things.
The ‘swap out, swap in’ battery case is integral to LG G5’s modular promise, making the Korean brand the first to enter the evolving modular smartphone segment.
With the LG G5 you get a 5.3-inch Quad-HD 2560x1440 pixels display, packed with a Snapdragon 820 processor and 4GB RAM. The battery is removable, which is a rare sight on flagship smartphone these days.
The ability to add an extra layer of battery or even add a camera unit makes the phone truly modular. In addition, one can also equip the phone with a hi-fi audio layer made by Bang & Olufsen.
LG has played its cards well, but we wonder how the G5 will fare in comparison with phones such as the Samsung Galaxy S7 or the HTC 10.
