The Future of LG: What to Expect from the G6

It's no secret that LG has been struggling to live up to its promise of delivering a "Galaxy worth of problems" with its phones. Despite having great hardware, screens, and specs, the company hasn't quite hit the mark when it comes to consumer expectations. However, LG is hoping that its new strategy will finally pay off with the release of the G6. The company believes that by focusing on a more streamlined approach, it can bring consumers back to the brand.

To achieve this goal, LG has been working hard to improve its smartphones. One of the key features of the G6 is its curved screen, which boasts a bezel-to-screen ratio of 90%. This means that the phone's screen takes up almost the entire front of the device, making it feel like you're holding an entire screen in your hand. The phone will also feature a completely metal and glass design, eliminating plastic from its construction.

However, not all of the G6's features are new or exciting. In fact, one of the most notable aspects of the phone is that it still has a headphone jack. This is a real issue for many consumers who have grown accustomed to wireless listening over traditional wired headphones. While this may seem like a small detail, it's a welcome change from previous LG phones that didn't include this feature.

LG took risks with the G5, trying out its modular design, but ultimately found it wasn't quite working. The company is ditching this approach in favor of more traditional smartphones, which will likely appeal to consumers who value simplicity over complexity. This decision may also be a nod to HTC's decision to abandon the 835 chip in their new line of phones. With Samsung also reportedly not including the 835 in its latest devices, LG seems to have made a similar choice.

Despite these changes, one feature that will remain constant is the G6's screen resolution. According to rumors, the phone will boast a Quad HD+ display with an aspect ratio of 18x9. While this may not sound like a huge deal at first glance, it's actually a significant improvement over the standard Full HD+ display found in many smartphones today. The G6 is also expected to have better multitasking capabilities thanks to its new screen design and LG's software.

In terms of performance, the G6 will be powered by either a Snapdragon 835 or an 820 chip, depending on the region. Unfortunately, this means that the phone won't have access to the latest and greatest hardware that other manufacturers like Samsung are offering. However, with its powerful processor and improved software, the G6 is still expected to deliver impressive performance.

The release date for the G6 has been set for Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on February 26th, with a possible shipping window of two to three weeks after the event. While this may seem like a long time to wait, it's worth noting that LG has previously released phones just before MWC and had them available shortly thereafter. This could mean that the G6 will be discounted or have some special offers in place when it launches.

It's also worth mentioning that the G6 is not going to revolutionize anything. However, with its incredible display, sleek design, and powerful performance, it's likely to be a top contender in the smartphone market.
