Customers who interested can pre-register to be told when it is available on T-Mobile’s site, according to 9to5Google. LG V10 will also be available at Verizon Wireless, but there has no pricing details yet.
The device has a 5.7-inch IPS display with 2560 × 1440 screen resolution. It is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor, paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, which can be expanded up to 2TB with a microSD card. LG V10 sports a 16MP rear camera just like G4, which has manual controls for video.
The big feature that LG is the distinctive dual-screen and its dual-selfie, front-facing cameras. It has a secondary display at the top of the device, which can act as an app launcher, and do a few other cool things. It is always on and is designed to enhance productivity by giving access to favorite apps and notifications, ComputerWorld reported.
The dual 5MP front-facing selfie cameras will offer either standard, 80-degree or wide-angle 120-degree selfies to eliminate the need to pan the smartphone or use a selfie stick. It comes with 3000mAh battery and a fingerprint sensor for unlocking the device.
