LG Electronics has introduced the LG V60ThinQ 5G to South Africa, featuring 5G connectivity, upgraded audio, video and photo capabilities and updated software experiences.

The V60ThinQ 5G, along with LG’s V50 ThinQ 5G, are the first two 5G enabled smartphones available from Vodacom to run on its mobile 5G network.

LG has equipped the LG V60 ThinQ 5G with its most advanced camera features and technologies yet. It features two rear cameras and time of flight (ToF) sensor array, including a 64MP main camera lens for sharper, brighter images regardless of lighting conditions. Also available is a 13MP wide-angle lens.

For the first time on an LG device, LG V60 ThinQ 5G supports 8K video recording.

Four high-performance microphones allow for recording sounds from various directions. The device also offers Voice Bokeh, a feature that separates users’ voices from background noise, allowing content creators. LG 3D Sound Engine is an audio processing technology that recognises the type of content and optimises the sound accordingly.

Both the phone and the upgraded second screen accessory come with super sharp 20.5:9 ratio FHD+ P-OLED displays that are almost a half-inch larger than before.

With a ribbed back for a more secure grip and the same-sized OLED panel found in the V60 ThinQ 5G, LG third generation Dual Screen doubles the available screen real estate. User can set the LG Dual Screen’s 2.1-inch Cover Display to always display key information for easy access at a glance or configure it to time out after 10 seconds.

LG V60 ThinQ 5G features a design that seamlessly brings together metal and glass.

The device packs a 5 000mAh battery, and is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Mobile Platform with the Qualcomm Snapdragon X55 5G modem.
