It is fairly big measuring to 6.0-inch suitable for gaming and watching movies amongst other things.
Battery and Camera
On paper, the battery capacity is not that much, just 3, 300mAh Li-Po battery but this serves much longer probably because of the software and chipset on the smartphone.

The front camera is a single 8MP camera with f/1.9 while at the rear there is a double16MP camera, a similar setup you have on the LG G7 ThinQ. There is scene recognition and AI enhancements in a separate AI Cam on the smartphone along with other impressive feature.

A slight improvement have been made to the memory on the smartphone compared to the former V-series and even the G7 ThinQ with its 6GB RAM. For storage there is 64GB of storage which is quite small for a flagship but thankfully it can be extended to 512GB. As for the OS, there is Android 8.0 Oreo on the smartphone.
