LG's 5G flagship might be called the V50 ThinQ 5G; could cost a small fortune
The LG V40 ThinQ
More specifically, ETNews believes the company’s 5G device will be marketed as the LG V50 ThinQ 5G – a pretty big mouthful that doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue – and should be available to purchase sometime in March.
Historically, LG has reserved V-series models for fall announcements but from the look of things, earlier unveilings could become a permanent thing. After all, the same report suggests that the 4G LTE-ready LG G8 ThinQ could be the final model in the series. Moreover, the South Korean brand doesn’t appear interested in creating a totally new brand just for 5G models.
Design-wise, the company has previously confirmed that the model will include a unique design. Considering it could arrive as part of the LG V-series, though, the smartphone could resemble last year’s LG V40 ThinQ quite closely.
