(ThyBlackMan.com) LG Judy is reportedly coming in June this year and there will be some notable changes in LG’s strategy and its upcoming smartphone. Judy is not the smartphone everyone was expecting after LG G6. This new phone will feature a better MLCD+ display panel which is capable of hitting 800-nit brightness and it is also 35 percent power efficient than the smartphones featuring IPS panel.
The report comes from a leaker who was briefed on the company’s new smartphone launch plans. No information about the device’s official name has been disclosed but according to Venture Beat’s report, the device is under development with a codename ‘Judy’. As far as the hardware specifications are concerned, the device is said to come equipped with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 845 chipset, 4GB of RAM and 64GB internal storage capacity.
One of the biggest surprises from LG is the device’s display. The LG Judy smartphone will feature 6.1-inch display and 18:9 full vision resolution. Full vision display is the current smartphone industry trend, but the display size is obviously going to make this phone stand out. LG’s new flagship phone will feature 16MP dual camera setup and it will sport f/1.6 lenses. The phone will also support HDR 10, stereo speakers (boombox) and wireless charging.
The LG Judy smartphone will be water and dust resistance. The IP68 rating and military standard durability support clearly suggest that the phone will be capable of withstanding reasonable shocks. Everything looks pretty good in the LG’s new flagship phone but 4GB of RAM appears to be a deal breaker in this case. This much RAM capacity is enough to handle almost all the mobile applications, but when we have options like 6GB RAM on Snapdragon 835, at least 6GB RAM on this phone is something pro users would love to see. According to the report, there are chances that LG will introduce a variant with higher internal storage and RAM capacity.
LG has not commented on reports about Judy smartphone, but the leaker has shared some specific details about the device’s release. The LG Judy smartphone will likely arrive sometime in June this year and it will not be available worldwide at the time of launch. The report suggests that fans will have to wait for the worldwide launch, as the device is expected to hit store shelves in summer.
During CES 2018, LG confirmed that the company is making a big change in its smartphone launch cycle. Earlier, LG’s smartphone launch events were tied to their regular timeline. The company used to release G Series phones in the first half and later in the second or third quarter, it used to unveil the V series phones. LG didn’t comment on the reasons behind such move, but according to analysts, the struggle in the smartphone industry has led the company to make such decisions. LG also confirmed that it will release more variants of the smartphone lineup it currently showcases. It clearly means that we can expect more phones in LG’s G and V series. The leaked details of LG Judy smartphone led many fans to believe that the device will be called G7, but the report cleared the air saying the new phone will not be having the G7 tag.
We know that LG is working hard on reassessing its smartphone business and there will be significant changes in the way the company has been operating its smartphone unit. The company clearly said that they won’t mind making big changes if the need arises. Such statements led many fans to believe that LG will introduce a new series in its smartphone product line and Judy would be a part of it. However, it remains to be seen if the company will introduce its new flagship phone anytime soon. The details shared in report are based on what an alleged insider said, so without an official confirmation, taking such information with a grain of salt is what we suggest.
