They should have used a punch hole with minimal bezel and who will pay $700 for mid range camera and SoC? Design alone is not enough to win customers and this design is not even revolutionary
OK, go for 8.3
I had hopes for this, too bad it's so damn wide. Pixel 4a, the future of Android competing with the iPhone SE is in your hands.
AnonD-844967, 25 Apr 2020This device is there way of saying that if you want LG flagship and can't afford it, here is a... moreAnd camera. Lacks telephoto lens. And the ISP of the SD765G isn't as good as the ISP in the SD865.
A bit pricey, especially in Europe.
*sighs*
This doesn't come CLOSE to being better than the G-series. I was hoping for at least a 2K@90fps P-OLED panel with 4,500mAH battery, 16MP Wide-Angle, and telephoto cam.
Sorry LG. I can't. Not for that price. $500 is more the worth of that phone and that's still being a little pricey.

Usual from LG. Overpriced phone ( doubled the price ) They will keep their 0.1 % market share.
This spec and price is not 100% sure
700 to 800 EUR? lol no, thanks, i'm good
This device is there way of saying that if you want LG flagship and can't afford it, here is a cheaper one but with midrange chip.
The problem is the pricing not the device, the device is a flagship in every aspect but the processor.
i'm guessing it will coast a lot less outside korea, all electronics coast about twice as much in korea
"That said, don't be surprised if the Velvet gets a $699 price in the US, and around €700 to €800 in the EU. The phone should be in stores in mid-May"
LG - No one's buying our overpriced phones
Also LG - Doesn't lower their prices
It's a shame as I like the phones they make, they've kept the headphone jack and have some of the best audio output too. They have micro SD which helps future proof phones.
But $700 for a Snapdragon 756G..? No thanks
If the most exciting that LG can offer is an overpriced mid-range phone with 48 MP main rear camera with OIS, an 8 MP ultrawide, and a 5 MP depth sensor for 675 - 800 euros... They are as dead as HTC or even Blackberry...
