LG V20 renders

LG V20 will be the first smartphone to run Android 7.0 Nougat out of the box and the first to feature a 32-bit Hi-Fi Quad DAC making users excited especially with the new photo leaks.

Reliable mobile industry leaker Evan Blass has posted several leaked renders of the LG V20 on Twitter showing what it could look like should the leaks be true. One photo shows that the phone retains the second smalls screen found in the LG V10 last year.

Another good news is that the LG V20 second screen does not seem to have the bloatware found in its predecessor that can zap down the battery juice, The Verge has learned. Users could be able to customize what will appear on the second screen, which is also where the rear camera and sensors are placed.

Just like the LG V10's second screen, the V20's additional tiny screen is also expected to be an always-on display. It could show notifications, the current time and other relevant info that the user could customize once the smartphone has been finally revealed in September 6.

Another LG V20 leak shows that the Android Nougat smartphone will not be as modular as everyone expects it to be, Android Police reported. However, the leaked photo is only a render and it could just be an artist's impression of what the device could look like.

It is also unknown whether the second screen would have some integration with the highly anticipated Android 7.0 Nougat version. Google will reportedly roll out the new version with one exclusive feature saved for their Google Nexus 2016 smartphones dubbed Marlin and Sailfish.

One more photo leak for the LG V20 comes from the phone case maker Ballistic. Their Elsa Jewel case has been spotted with a render of the LG V20 that shows half of the front end of the device and the full rear which also shows the dual camera setup and the fingerprint scanner.

LG is expected to unveil and confirm the LG V20 specs on September 6. The company ill reportedly reveal the phone first in the United States before in their home country South Korea.
