Top 6 New Features of the LG G6!
What's up everybody this is Danny this is LG's brand-new flagship phone and I'm going to show you the six best features of the highly anticipated LG g6 the first feature is the new design gone is the Full Metal Jacket of the g5 and this year you get a shiny and beautiful Gorilla Glass slide back but just like you would imagine the phone quickly becomes a fingerprint magnet so I'm sure ad brand skin or a case is a must for the g6 the phone feels solid when you're holding it it's a nice metal frame all around but it feels a little boxy even though the back is slightly curved on the edges the button placement and
Fingerprint scanner locations are unchanged you still get a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack so a lot of you'll be happy with that but the IR blaster is gone there is an SD card slot inside the SIM tray so I'm happy they included that LG even made design changes on the inside where they place heat pipes to disperse heat more evenly and use a more rigid H frame on the metal body to give it better durability it is sleek so there's no camera bump at all it's about the same footprint as the g5 and even with the same display size it's much smaller than the LG B 20 the second
Feature is a first in the industry at this moment and that is the new 5.7 inch 18 by 9 quad HD plus display this ultra wide aspect ratio and the various embezzles give it an amazing look and let me tell you this display is very impressive even though this is an IPS LCD and not an AMOLED panel the colors the sharpness the brightness all of that's on point so I don't think you'll be disappointed with this display at all the g6 is also the first to support both HDR 10 and Dolby vision platforms so you can display billions of colors with supported content from Netflix and
Amazon Prime video and those platforms already have some shows that support the 18 by 9 aspect ratio so that'll be interesting to see if this takes off the only thing I don't like is the way the corners of the screen aren't squared off I think it gives it a little bit of a weird look what do you guys think does it look distracting let me know in the comments the third feature is the larger battery the g6 now has a 3300 milliamp hour battery up from the 2,800 milliamp hours in the g5 this is a significant bump up and should translate to better battery
Life the USB port on the bottom now supports quick charge 3.0 so charging your phone will be super fast and because of that glass back you now get support for fast wireless charging with both Chi and PMA support for those of you that love removable batteries you will be disappointed because the g6 is all filled up but there is a good reason for that because now the g6 is water-resistant with an ip68 rating LG claims that the g6 has improved ceiling above its competition with the exposed ports and I had a lot of fun soaking this phone over and over again for about
30 minutes and it worked perfectly so if you drop this in the back the pool or your kids splash to drink on it you'll be just fine the fifth feature are the new cameras on both sides you get a 5 megapixel wide-angle hundred-degree field-of-view front-facing camera and you also get a dual 13 megapixel camera setup on the back with one being a hundred 25 degree ultra wide-angle lens of course you can change from the regular camera to the wide-angle like before with just a single tap but what's cool is that you can seamlessly zoom in between the two
Fields of view to obtain a optical zoom like of things it's really smooth you have a new square camera app where you can frame your shot how you want it take the picture and preview the shot right after I'm not sure if I'll use this or not but I guess it's a cool way to show off what the 18 by 9 us can do you can choose native 18 by 9 1080p video as well if you want to which is awesome and shoot up to 30 frames per second 4k but what's more exciting is that you get full manual controls of both photo and video modes so you get great features like focus peaking bitrate changes audio
Options manual focus and much more this is really exciting the sixth feature is the software and the g6 runs Android 7.0 you get with LG skin on top it looks almost identical to the g5 I didn't see an option to turn the app drawer back on so a far as I know the apt role is not available on the field the Snapdragon 820 one with four gigabytes of RAM seemed to do a great job keeping this phone nice and snappy but I will report back on this in the full review even though this is not Android 7.1 like the Google pixel it's exciting to see Google
Assistant on here I believe this is the first phone to have assistant outside of the pixel so it's a nice inclusion of course there are more new features of the G 6 but I thought these were the best worth mentioning I'll be getting this phone very soon so stay tuned for a lot more coverage including camera tests comparisons and the full review subscribe for more content like this and smack that like button real quick and I'll see you guys in the next one
