don't know the LG velvet is our upcoming smartphone and it places design and
style ahead of specs and price it's a mid-range device with stunning looks
performance and a very attractive price tag we've had some hands-on
footage of the phone and we already know everything about the LG velvet
so I'm gonna run through the specs design as well as the confirmed at
launch date of the smartphone before we get started please like the video
if you're looking forward to the LG velvet and let me know in the comments
if you're waiting to purchase and for those of you that aren't what phone are
you waiting for but the lg velvet is a new range from LG many out there were
waiting for the g9 and while this isn't the g9 it's essentially its replacement
we've had an official video from LG with the full specs leaked pricing leaks and
confirmation of the launch we've also got some hands-on footage of the device
so we'll be covering it all if we start with the specs you can see that the LG
velvet is sporting a near full screen display with a water drop style notch
on the front the focus here has been on a sleek design we can see the top
and the bottom bezels are symmetrical which is gonna please many we've also
got a 3d art design on the front where both sides of the LG velvet are curved
with very minimal bezel the LG velvet is equipped with a six point eight inch
cinema full vision OLED display at a full HD plus resolution of 1080x2460
the phone has an aspect ratio of 20.5:9 and provides us with 395 pixels per inch
the phone has an in display fingerprint scanner on the front and while it will
support face unlock it's only gonna be 2D face unlock well focus lately has
been on camera performance which seems to have led to these new rectangular
camera modules LG have done things differently and provided us with a vert
camera alignment in a much more stylish design the lenses almost resemble water
droplets and gets smaller as we go down we can of course see that the LG velvet
provides a triple camera setup with an LED flash the primary sensor is
a 48 megapixel sensor with the standard lens in an aperture of f/1 it uses phase
detect autofocus and includes optical image stabilization we also get an 8
megapixel ultra wide it with an aperture of f/2.2 and finally we've got a 5
megapixel macro lens with an aperture of f/2.8 for the LG valve it uses pixel
burning technology on its main sensor that can join four pixels together
for low-light scenarios is capable of 4k videos with image stabilization and it's
got a voice out focus feature that makes it possible to remove unwanted sounds
when recording a video it's combined it with two high performance microphones
that allow the user to capture much more vivid and high-quality audio
when shooting their home videos to power the LG velvet they've decided
to go with the snapdragon 765 system on chip of course some of you may be
disappointed to see last year's chipset but let's not forget that the 765 is
a very powerful chipset and it's gonna help to reduce the cost of the LG velvet
it seems like LG have focused on making sensible decisions that provide users
with the hardware they need to enjoy the phone and maximize its potential without
going over the top the snapdragon 765 is going to be paired up with a 5g modem so
it will bring 5g connectivity to there LG velvet it comes with 8 gigs of DDR 4
RAM and 128 gigs of storage which is ufs 2.1 well you may think that's not enough
storage it also comes with a micro SD card slot for expandable storage the
LG velvet is of course running Android 10 and the phone is powered by a 4300
milliamp hour battery that supports 30 watt fast charging using wires and 10
watt wireless charging one of the main areas where LG are trying to
excel on this device is of course the audio the LG velvet features artificial
intelligent sound that can automatically analyze the content being played and
determine the optimum audio quality on top of this before the high-performance
stereo speakers with Meridian technology to get the best audio out of the phone
now with the specs out of the way we can move on to the live footage launch date
and of course the prices an official teaser has already been published for
their LG velvet which I'm sure most of you have already seen the 35 second
video was posted to LG's official YouTube channel and gave us a very
good look at the velvet it confirmed a lot of the details we just covered
on the specs and the design and was all we had to go on until now a vietnamese
leaker bobby posted a tweet to twitter that gives us four detailed shots of the
LG velvet in the aurora white and the aurora gray color variants we first get
a shot of the rear which falls in line with exactly what we've seen from the
leaked info and of course the official video from LG and of course that this
was a triple camera setup with the water droplet cameras that they get
smaller as we go down next we got a shot of the front of the phone and of course
we can't see much from this but it does confirm a water drop style notch on the
front finally we get a look at the inside of the LG velvet which again
confirms the triple camera setup and also we can see at the 4300 milliamp
hour battery that powers it at this point we can be pretty certain that
this is the phone we'll be getting and all of the specs are correct another
LG velvet is going to be launched on the 7th of May which is just six days
away we of course have already had this confirmed as it was listed at the end
of LG's teaser video but one thing we have not had leaked yet is the price
many people are expecting it the device is gonna be around eight hundred and
twenty dollars but an anonymous source it advised me that the LG velvet is
actually gonna cost less apparently the reason for such compromises it was of
course to reduce cost make this more of a mid-range phone than a high-end
but I've been told around six to seven hundred dollars is a lot more likely if
they can deliver this tech at that price point then it's no doubt gonna be a very
successful device unfortunately that's all the details i've got for you guys
today but as always i'd like to know your thoughts and comments throughout
there is waiting for the lg velvet and if not what phone are you waiting for
but thanks for watching the video if you liked it smash a thumbs up
if you didn't hit the thumbs down twice and I'll see you guys in the next one
