The image, first obtained by The Verge, reveal an all metal design and a thin bezel. The volume rockers are located on the left and there is a front camera around the top bezel.
Additionally, the device appears to have curved display corners and the screen-to-bezel ratio is reportedly greater than 90 percent.
Rumors speculate a 5.7-inch 2880 x 1440 Quad HD LCD display. It could have a dual camera set up and will be powered by a Snapdragon 835 processor. The hardware should also see a 4GB RAM and 128GB storage.
And if reports are to be believed, G6 will be the first non-Google phone to come with Google Assistant. The water-resistant phone is the successor of LG G5 which launched in February, last year.
The G5 had a 5.3-inch display with Corning Gorilla Glass 4, Snapdragon 820 processor and 4GB RAM. The dual camera setup consisted of 12MP + 8MP with LED flash. The secondary camera consisted of 8MP.
Meanwhile, the new LG G6 will run on latest Android Nougat operating system. The device will be unveiled on February 26, when the MWC will be underway in Barcelona. We will have to wait and see if this would be a real homerun for LG with all the top tier phones it’s competing with, including Google, Sony and Xiaomi.
