Now, what do we know about the LG V60? Not much apparently, as any major leaks are yet to make their way to our ears, but this can’t stop us from coming up with some educated guesses as to what the upcoming flagship phone would carry on deck.

Design & Display

Features

Unlike Samsung’s Note-series, which differs quite a lot from the regular Galaxy S-series, the LG V-series has way more similarities to the G-series. Aside from display & battery size, there simply aren’t enough characteristic differences between LG’s two phone series, which is a pity. Hopefully, LG will come forth with a new and intriguing feature or functionality that’d set it apart. Remember LG V10 and V20’s secondary displays? Yes, those were pretty intriguing! 

Camera

When it comes to the camera, the LG V60 will certainly have at least three cameras at the back. What do we base this on? Simple, the LG V50 had three cameras on deck, so the V60 reiterating that wouldn’t be far-fetched at all. As it’s now expected of just about any phone right now, the V60 will certainly come with a wide-angle, ultra wide-angle, and telephoto cameras, though additional sensors could be thrown in the mix as well. A depth sensor, for example, would help with portraiture – an area LG phones don’t perform too well in.

Performance

No surprises here – the LG V60 will most likely come with the Snapdragon 865 chipset on board, which was officially detailed just a few days ago. In terms of hardware, Qualcomm’s upcoming chip will be built on a 7nm process just like the Apple A13 Bionic, Snapdragon 855+, as well as the Samsung Exynos 990 chip that will power international versions of the Galaxy S11 family. The main specs are rather straightforwards, but the real kicker about the upcoming Snapdragon 865 is that it will support multi-mode 5G, up to 200MP cameras, as well as up to 144Hz refresh rate displays. Actually, there will be no LTE-only phones powered by this chip, which automatically means that the LG V60 will certainly be a 5G-ready device. Of course, provided that LG decides to use it.

In terms of RAM, storage, and battery size, our guess is just as good as yours, but an educated guess would be at least 8GB of RAM and at least 128 of storage in the base version. Hopefully, a >5,000mAh battery would be included in the mix as well – the LG V50 had one, so the V60 better come with such a large battery as well.

Expectations 

We expect the LG V60 to be unveiled at the upcoming MWC 2020 trade expo in Barcelona, Spain, alongside with the LG G9. This was the case last year and we have no reasons to believe LG wouldn’t reiterate the deed next year as well.
