LG's next flagship G5 will be released on February 21. Recently, the foreign media Droid Life obtained an engineering machine suspected to be LG G5. The machine was wrapped in a leakproof shell, and only core parts such as the screen, camera microphone, etc. were leaked.

The most obvious features on the front of the machine are the ultra narrow border, the left volume key and the auxiliary screen of the suspected LG V10. Of course, the position below the opening in the upper right corner of the protective shell may only be the reserved position of the fuselage code.

There are two cameras and fingerprint identification module on the back. The laser focusing module can be seen in the middle of the camera, but the position of the flash is not seen. The dual camera may be similar to the V10 dual front camera design, which uses two cameras with different focal lengths/wide-angle ranges to provide images in different field of vision, or it may be similar to the dual lens "virtual zoom" design previously patented by Apple.

It is rumored that LG G5 may add Magic Slot (magic slot, identified by NFC through magnetic adsorption?) that can be connected to VR camera and physical keyboard light accessories, and a suspected hole appears at the lower left corner of the engineering machine back shell.

The machine adopts a real metal frame. There is chamfer processing on the screen edge. The left side is the volume key, the right side is the card slot, the bottom is replaced by Type-C interface, and the speaker is also replaced by the bottom opening.

Previously leaked renderings

LG has always been a conscientious manufacturer who works hard on products and likes to stack various black technologies. However, after LG G5 has lost the volume button on the back and adopted a metal frame, button/interface layout similar to its peers, its differences are really only two cameras (many devices have dual cameras) and Magic Slot, which is meaningless to ordinary users?

As a rational gold powder, it is somewhat lost.
