The LG G6 is an Android smartphone developed by LG Electronics. It was announced during Mobile World Congress on February 26, 2017, as the successor to the 2016 LG G5.
The G6 is distinguished by its display, which features a taller, 18:9 aspect ratio than the 16:9 aspect ratio of most smartphones. A variant, called the G6+ was announced on June 19, 2017 with 128 GB storage and 6 GB RAM.
The LG G6 utilizes a metal chassis with a glass backing, and is IP68-rated for water and dust-resistance. It is available in black, white, and silver-color finishes. The G6 features a 1440p FullVision IPS LCD display, with a diagonal size of 5.7 inches. LG stated that it intended for the G6 to be a large-screened phone that would still be compact and feasible for one-handed use; the display uses a 2:1 (marketed as 18:9) aspect ratio that is taller than the 16:9 displays used by the majority of smartphones. The G6 was also designed with slim bezels, and is slightly smaller in size than the G5. To allow for reinforcement around the corners of the display, the display panel itself has rounded edges. The display also supports HDR10 and Dolby Vision high-dynamic-range video.
The G6 utilizes the Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 system-on-chip with 4 GB of RAM. It is offered in models with 32 GB and 64 GB of internal storage, expandable via SD card. The G6+, on the other hand comes with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB internal storage standard. The G6 includes a 3300 mAh battery; unlike the G5, it is not user-accessible. U.S. models will support wireless charging, and all models will support Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0. Models in selected Asian markets will include quad Digital-to-analog converters (DAC) to enhance sound output. The G6 drops the modular accessory system of the G5, which had been panned by critics. Similarly to the G5, the G6 features dual rear-facing cameras, with standard and wide-angle sensors. Unlike the G5, where the wide-angle sensor had a smaller megapixel size, both cameras utilize 13-megapixel sensors.
