LG G5 Full Specification

LG G5 is an incredible smartphone produced by the LG company with a lot of amazing features. The smartphone was released on 1st April, 2016, and the device is made quite affordable with a starting price of about NGN 220,000. LG G5 is an Android Smartphone powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 Quad-Core processor and runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow topped off with LG’s own UI, and is powered by the Snapdragon 820 SoC with 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage.

The smartphone which measures about 8mm thick, in a way, feels like a more compact version of the Google Nexus 6P. It is made to be more comfortable handling than the other device. Another interesting addition about this device is a modular feature at the bottom of the device for including add-ons. The LG G5 packs in a 5.3-inch IPS display with a Quad HD resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels. Also, talking about the pixel density, it is a bit lower at 554 ppi.

So in its bid to endow the LG G5 smartphone with a metal armor without losing customers to the lack of microSD slot and removable battery, LG engineered a slide-out bottom compartment that houses a 2800 mAh battery and a microSD slot alongside it. The LG G5 comes with a fingerprint scanner. It features 4G LTE, Bluetooth 4.2, USB Type-C and Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac amongst its connectivity features.
