On February 20, the Korean mobile phone manufacturer, Samsung also plans to unveil a high-end Galaxy S10 smartphone with a 5G connectivity device in San Francisco.
In January this year, LG launched the V40 ThinQ smartphone and sold for Rs 49,990 in India. The screen is 6.40 inches in size and has a resolution of 1440 × 3120 megapixels. V40 ThinQ is equipped with an eight-core 10nm Snapdragon 845 SoC processor, with 6GB of RAM and a 128GB internal memory. Users can expand the memory up to 2TB via microSD card slot. However, this smartphone uses Android 8.1 operating system, quite old compared to the current market.
