So LG had announced their 2016 flagship, the LG G5 earlier this year and in a matter of few months has officially launched it in India today. However, the G5 was up for pre-orders from May 21st itself and LG had also offered a free Camera Module named LG Cam Plus for everyone who had gone for this which is a pretty good deal in our opinion. The G5 will now go on sale at Flipkart for a price of 52,990 INR.

Let’s take a look at the specifications of the LG G5 before we give our initial thoughts based on the pricing and competition:

Features Details
Display 5.3 inches QHD display at ~554 ppi, protected with Gorilla Glass 4

Features ‘Always On Display’ mode

Form factor 7.7mm thick and 159 gms in weight
Processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 SoC with Adreno 530 GPU
RAM 4GB
Memory 32GB internal memory that can be expanded upto 200GB via micro SD slot
Camera 16 MP with f/1.8 aperture, autofocus, OIS and flash + 8 MP front shooter
Battery 2800 mAh removable battery with modular design

USB Type-C connector, Quick Charge 3.0 supported

OS LG UI built off Android 6.0 Marshmallow
Connectivity Dual Sim 4G LTE,Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, NFC , Bluetooth 4.2
Colours Silver, Gold, Titan, Pink

Now considering the price and comparing the G5 with its competition we have the Galaxy S7 from Samsung coming at a slightly lesser price but has the best camera in Android phones at the moment. We also have the HTC 10 coming around the same price range but has managed to get only a luke warm response though its a massive improvement from its predecessor M9. We have the OnePlus 3, which is an upcoming phone later in June and going by the leaks it should pack a punch but at a price that is way lesser than the ones listed earlier here.

But its not just about the price isn’t it? G5 brings something new to the table – a baby step in the modular phones approach where you can remove the battery and slap in a Cam Plus that costs around 6000 INR and it also brings in 1800mAh of additional battery capacity. The dual lens camera has this cool wide angle feature that is
is also unique. However the unibody design though being good lacks the appealing looks and may not interest everyone.

LG G5 Friends

A good smartphone will always have tons of friends to go with and this seems to be something that LG is trying to push with the G5. Along with the G5, LG also announced other tiny gadgets that go with the G5:

  1. Smart home monitoring with the ROLLING BOT, that can also simply play a game of fetch with you
  2. 360 VR for those movie buffs for a theater like experience
  3. 360 CAM, something similar to what HTC did with the RE sometime back
  4. B&O’s DAC support for enhanced audio experience
  5. Tone Platinum again for enhanced audio experience

One thing with the G5 is also that it is one of the few phones with things like removable battery which lots of us still love. We will wait to get our hands on the G5 and bring you more details on how it performs as compared to the S7 Edge we have been using since a while!

LG G5 Freebies: LG will be providing an extra battery and a charging cradle for free with the LG G5.
