No joke: LG G7 renders (notch included) and dimensions leak out

Exactly one month ago, we showed you what were, supposedly, real life photos of a cancelled LG G7. Shortly after that, it was reported that the photos actually depicted a G7 model that LG should launch, eventually. Now, we're seeing a bunch of new renders that seemingly show the upcoming flagship smartphone from multiple angles.

Revealed by Mr. Phone and @OnLeaks, these new LG G7 renders present a device that matches the one seen in the aforementioned live photos. The phone definitely has a notch and a display that occupies most of its front side (this display could measure 6 inches). The back of the LG G7 hosts a dual camera with LED flash and laser auto focus, plus a fingerprint scanner. Oh, and there's a 3.5mm headset jack at the bottom.   

Reportedly, the LG G7 measures roughly 153.2 x 71.9 x 8.2 mm, thus it's going to be a bit taller and thicker than last year's LG G6 (which measures 148.9 x 71.9 x 7.9 mm). The new handset should be powered by Qualcomm's high-end Snapdragon 845 processor, further offering up to 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage space. 

It's said that LG is planning to release the G7 in May. The smartphone could come with a software trick that allows user to hide its notch if they don’t want to see it (and it looks like many people really don’t).

P.S.: Yes, today is April Fool’s Day, and while plenty of stories around the Web shouldn’t be taken seriously, these LG G7 renders are - most likely - based on the real thing. Until now, @OnLeaks revealed quite many (and quite accurate) renders of unannounced smartphones, so we have little to no reasons to doubt the accuracy of this new leak.
