The image posted got the regular looks of a mid-range smartphone. LG V5 sounds like ordinary smartphones which anyone can afford and seems to have a plastic body. There is a microUSB port at the bottom of the device which is considered as old fashioned considering that the fact that all high-end phones which will be released on 2017 will have a USB-C.

In the recent image posted in Techtimes, LG has designed the back plate to slide towards on edge. There is also a circular fingerprint sensor at the back and a single rear camera. The dimension of the phone is reported to have 148.65 x 75.30 x 7.5/8 mm with a 5.3″ or a 5.5″ display.

Furthermore, the pricing of the phone is expected to be on the affordable side based on the average appearance of the device. Customers are hoping that this is not the type of phone that they are expecting because it would create a bad image for the successful lineup of LG.
