To get ahead of the Galaxy S8, the LG G6 will go on sale march 10 – CNET in Spanish

In his eagerness to “give up” to Samsung, LG will sell its flagship phone for this year, known as LG G6, march 10, according to ET News.

The release would be advanced almost a month to what normal, because last year LG started selling the G5 at the end of march. This will be to avoid what happened in 2016, when the S7 and the S7 Edge went on sale march 11, while the G5 made it until the 31st of the same month.

ET News says that the launch is scheduled for the 10 march will be, at least, cash to South Korea, the homeland of both companies archirrivales. Subsequently, the G6 would come to other countries, while ET News does not mention a possible date.

Samsung, according to rumors, it will launch the Galaxy S8 –informal name of the phone– in April of this year, breaking the MWC and releasing it to your time and without speeding, to avoid a repeat of what was experienced with the Galaxy Note 7.

LG wants to reverse what happened with your G5, both on the date of marketing as well as in the attention of the users. The G5 was one of the first phones to use the term modular to differentiate yourself from your competition, but the implementation was confusing and was not as well received as the modularity of the Moto Z Lenovo.

The modules of LG –they were known as “Friends”– accounted for a debut and a farewell to LG. Despite the fact that the company supported the strategy at all times, has now confirmed that the G6 does not have that feature, in favor of focusing on others that would help them to catapult the sales of its phone.

it Is expected that the G6 will be announced end of February in the framework of the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona. The phone is expected to come with an iris scanner as a new method of unlocking, QHD screen+ 5.7-inches and an aspect of 18:9, in addition to a new method of mobile payments for and compete with Samsung Pay, Android Pay and Apple Pay.

In the chassis of the G6, don’t expect big changes compared to the G5. The double chamber, as well as the corners, will remain curved.

although this all sounds official and imminent, LG has not confirmed anything about it… beyond the void modularity of the G6.
