LG V10 goes official with Dual front camera and dual screen

Long rumored LG V10 has been officially announced. LG V10 doesn’t have much to attract in terms of benchmarking score, performance or chipset. However, there are some unique features that you won’t find in other smartphones, or may be just couple of them have it. We will tell you all about it.

Dual Screen or Second screen

Second screen in LG V10 is located just above the primary QHD display. You can set it up to be always on, and it won’t impact the battery life that much. It can show battery icon, whether information and date when the primary display is in standby/sleep mode. When the primary display in on, the second screen can be used to display shortcuts for those apps what you use a lot. The best thing what you are going to like is when you watch a movie/video or play games, the second screen will notify when you receive any call or text without distracting you. You can respond or just ignore and keep your entertainment up. What do you think? This is the best part of LG V10 that we don’t think any smartphone can help with.

Dual Front Camera

LG V10 features 5-megapixel dual front lens, and it has the capability to combine images from two separate cameras to cover more area in selfie. It supports 80º standard shot and 120º wide angle shot that is enough to capture a small group in one selfie. Let’s hope you would not need any selfie stick for group selfie while using LG V10. Once the device hits the stores it would be clear. Along with wide angle shot, LG V10 features one more feature known as Multi-view recording. This feature will allow you to utilize all three cameras to capture different angles. This feature is unique that we have not heard of earlier.

Note : The device that was found on GFXBench as LG G4 Pro features almost the same specs that LG V10 does. It seems that one was probably LG V10, but something got messed up and it showed up as LG G4 Pro on GFXBench.
