The Mobile World Congress is very close to getting started and all the companies warm up motors to introduce or advance what will be their best phones of the year. In the case of Samsung, we know that your Galaxy S8 will not be present, however, will show a small advance with the goodness of this new equipment.
On the side of Huawei will be the presentation of the new P10, a phone that comes to show the maturity of the Chinese manufacturer as one of the most important in the sector. In the case of Apple and Google, they will be there but they will not make presentations of any type of device.
The last of the big manufacturers is LG, which will throw all the meat to the grill and make the presentation of his new phone, the G6, but the problem with this team is that it has had the first stumble, even before its presentation.
The fact is that the LG G6 will not use the new Qualcomm processor, the Snapdragon 835, which will be the chip that will carry most of this year’s high-end phones from major manufacturers, with the exception of Huawei and Apple.
Instead, LG will have to use the Snapdragon 821, processor star of last year, because it has decided to sell its new phone before the Galaxy S8 goes on sale. In fact it was Samsung the company that forbade any manufacturer to put on sale some phone with the Snapdragon 835 before the Galaxy S8, phone that has the exclusive of this processor.
Of course many users this has not seemed right and have criticized LG for not waiting a little longer and adopt a more powerful processor for your new computer. After all, we feel the need to always have the latest in the market, although clearly this is impossible.
Even with all this inconvenience, the ace under the sleeve of LG G6 is its screen, and the company knows it; Hence almost all the information that the company has given the media on its next release has to do in one way or another with the advantages that the smartphone will have on any device when it comes to enjoying its large screen that already Have named as Full Vision.
This week, the Korean company has returned to show a small advance of the technology Full Vision, as well as the renewal that its layer of personalization baptized like UX will bring to the multimedia reproduction of G6.
Starting with the screen, LG confirms the 18: 9 aspect ratio, with a resolution of 2,880 x 1,440 pixels QHD and a size of 5.7 inches. Although the 18: 9 aspect ratio seems strange, today we have been able to find out why it has been chosen.
It turns out that Juno Cho, president of LG Mobile has mentioned that the Full Vision screen was born based on the recommendations of experts in the film industry who rate the 18: 9 format as the most suitable for multimedia consumption in the digital age .
The advantage of having an 18: 9 screen allows the frames to be square and not rectangular, so you can take advantage of the screen space both horizontally and vertically, so LG wanted to take advantage of this and will bring Major improvements in the multimedia experience.
One of these improvements is the multiwindows, whose characteristic has been seen in several Android devices, but that has not been known to take full advantage, which the G6 will do better than the others.
In this case, LG mentions that it is the Advanced Multiwindows, that thanks to its large screen we could divide the panel into identical pictures, in which one would show the main function of an application and in the second some secondary feature.
For example, when taking a picture you can see in a box what the camera captures, while in a second frame or window you will see the recent pictures taken, so you will not see a small icon in which it is very difficult to appreciate the Details that you captured in the photograph.
For obvious reasons were not given many details of how the new UX will work, or how surprising its new screen, or the benefits of the advanced multiwindows, have only made us the cordial invitation not to miss its great presentation in the Mobile World Congress on February 26th.
