 Hey everybody, it's Chris Welch with The Verge and this is LG's V20. It's the company's latest smartphone and it's the first smartphone you can buy that comes with Android 7.0 Nougat out of the box. So if you don't have a Nexus or you're impatient, you can buy this phone and get all of Google's latest features built right in. You've got all of Nougat's built-in features. You can run two apps at once with split screen just like that. Have a browser and YouTube open and LG still has their second screen up top so you can have shortcuts to apps. You'll see your notifications up there, stuff like that. It's handy, it's not essential, it's kind of gimmicky, but it's cool to have if you actually want to use it. So LG's going to really market this phone to audiophiles. It's got a Hi-Fi microphone system built in so you can take it to a concert, rock concert, and it'll record that and not clip or have any kind of distortion. So if you want to save your memories at a concert, it's good for shooting videos, making recordings and things like that. And there are four DACs built in so if you're a headphone listener, if you plug in your headphones, you're going to get better sounding audio from this phone than just about any other phone you can buy. So the V20 looks a lot more like the G5 than it does the V10 from last year. It's got a smooth metal back. This is metal and the top and bottom are actually polycarbonate so those are plastic. It's got two cameras on back. One's wide angle, one's regular and you can actually pull the back cover off so you can swap out the battery. So if you're at zero dead battery, you can just put in a brand new one and be right back to 100%. It's one of the best things about LG's phones and they've kind of seen it forward here which is really cool. The V20 is a fast, powerful phone. It's got all the fast specs you'd want. It's got a Snapdragon 820 processor, 4 gigs of RAM, 64 gigs of storage plus microSD so it'll do any task you throw at it without any difficulty whatsoever. We're not sure on pricing. That's going to be up to the carriers to decide but it should be out sometime this month fairly soon. And so that's our first look at the LG V20.
