A smartphone is put on display without any background to distinguish its design and physical features.

LG G6 release date may happen earlier than expected, according to recent reports.

Droid-Life claimed that LG G6 launch will probably happen in early February or March and the device will most likely to be available the same day. Learning from what happened in LG G5 wherein it was announced at Mobile World Congress, but it took over a month to make the handset ready for sale.

LG rivals like Samsung got ahead of the company and released the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge just three weeks after their announcement. Pre-orders for the devices opened on the same day of the launch.

Meanwhile, according to Android Headlines, rumor has it that LG G6 will pack an OLED screen display as previous reports claimed the handset will support Google's Daydream. According to Google's specifications, it requires OLED display in order for this feature to work. Moreover, the smartphone will pack 4K pixel resolution that will enhance the VR experience, which is hip nowadays.

Under the hood, LG G6 is reported to pack Snapdragon 830 SoC paired with 8GB of RAM that will make the device more powerful than its predecessors and even at par or better than other smartphones. It will pack at least 32GB of internal storage and may have different storage variants. The smartphone will most likely run with the latest version of the Android Nougat operating system.

Other interesting features that may come to LG G6 are waterproof and wireless charging features. LG is also rumored to increase the security of the handset by including both fingerprint and iris scanners. Meanwhile, rumors stated that LG will create its version of Samsung Pay as well as support other cashless payments like Android Pay. Thus, an NFC chip is in order.

Since LG has announced nothing official yet, these rumors must be taken as a grain of salt.
