Less than a month of submission of the new flagship of LG, the LG G6, rumors soar and begin to leak information and images. This is all that is known and what is rumored about the new model LG gathered by TechRadar.

Apparently, the LG G6 will be presented on February 26, in the context of Mobile World Congress, where the South Korean company has scheduled a conference. The launch will probably be in April, following the same schedule as the G5 and G4 models, at a price similar to the G5 according to the company itself (about € 700).

Leaks point to a sleeker design. The aluminum surface could be replaced by glass, a not so strong but more stylish material. Other sources indicate that the casing will remain metallic but of a more reflective type. The dimensions of 148.8 x 72.3 would be mobile x 8.3 mm, very similar to the G5 but a bit thicker.

It is fairly certain that LG moves over the modules, as stated by the executive vice president of the company Skott Ahn in an interview in the Wall Street Journal. This would facilitate water resistance. In addition, the word 'waterproof' appears in the first promotional video of the LG G6, pointing in the same direction.

There are not many mysteries to solve on the screen. LG announced that its next smartphone would have a 5.7 - inch LCD screen with qHD resolution and an aspect ratio of 18: more elongated than most screens 9.As is apparent from a photo filtered by The Verge, the screen occupies 90% of the surface of the cell.

The information is so far on the camera is very low. Some rumors point to a dual lens as in the LG G5, although it probably incorporates some improvements as more resolution a better zoom.

Regarding battery, some rumors point to that it will be removable and others deny it. What we do has confirmed the company itself in statements to The Korea Herald is that the smartphone incorporates a system to prevent overheating and has been subjected to a rigorous test. The LG G6 could be charged using a wireless system that LG has introduced some time ago, although it is not known if the technology needed will be ready for this model.

It is also unclear if the Snapdragon 835 chip will arrive in time for the LG G6. If not, the mobile also works with the powerful Snapdragon 821, the same chip and Pixel Google OnePlus 3T.
