Verizon just introduced two new LG-branded phones that are going to be sold under its banner. The high-end LG V20 and budget-friendly LG Stylo 2 V are available starting today online, but will be hitting brick and mortar stores on October 27.
The LG V20 is currently being eyed by many, in the wake of the grand Galaxy Note7 fiasco. The high-end phone was launched in September 2016 and bundles advanced specs. It comes equipped with a 5.7-inch touchscreen display with 1440 x 2560 pixel resolution and 531ppi.
The phone is powered by a Snapdragon 820 processor clocked at 1.6Ghz in combination with 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage (expandable up to 256GB via microSD card slot). In the photography department, the LG V20 takes advantage of a hefty 16MP main camera and a 5MP selfie shooter.
It comes with Android 7.0 pre-installed and a 3,200 mAh removable battery. The LG V20 might be just the prefect Note7 alternative and Verizon is selling it for a very attractive price. Interested parties can acquire it for $672 outright or by embarking on a two-year plan with the carrier and paying $28/month.
Compared to other carriers, Verizon offers a very good deal. AT&T sells the phone for $830 without a contract, while T-Mobile asks for $769.
What’s more Verizon offers three LG V20-related promotions.
- You can get $300 back when you buy the LG V20 on device payment and trade in select smartphones (available for a limited time only)
- Purchase the LG V20 on a payment plan and get a pair of premium H3 earphones by B&O Play ($149 value)
- Buy the LG V20 on device payment and you can get the LG Stylo 2 V for $1/month with a 24 month plans attached
As for the second phone which is making a debut today, it’s a mid-range affair destined for customers on a budget.
The phone features a spacious display of 5.7-inch with 720 x 1280 pixel resolution. It draws power from a octa-core 1.8GHz CPU in combination with 16GB of internal storage (expandable via microSD card up to 128GB). The LG Stylo 2 V takes advantage of 13MP rear camera plus a 5MP front snapper. It runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box.
As the name suggest, the phablet comes equipped with a stylus, so you can scribble your thoughts on the device whenever you want. The phone can be bought for $10 a month for 24 months or for $240 without a plan.
