When it is not the manufacturers themselves that do things wrong, it is the external elements that harm company movements. I am talking about LG and HTC. A few weeks ago, a rumor began to circulate stating that Samsung with the Galaxy S8 could be the only device to hit the market initially with the new Snapdragon 835, the latest from Qualcomm. Little by little, and with the passing of the days, it did not seem that both LG with G6 and HTC with its next flagship had to resign themselves making use of the Snapdragon 821 and if they could use the latest Snapdragon model. But not. It will be that no.
After many rumors, yes yes, yes no, in the end it has just been officially confirmed, that the new LG G6 will not be managed by the Snapdragon 835, and it is confirmed that unfortunately you will have to make use of the Snapdragon 821, according to the image that you can see below, where we see how the processor code that will integrate the G6 corresponds to the Snapdragon 821.
This image also confirms that LG's new G6 would be water and dust resistant, without specifying the type of protection. In addition, it would also offer us the fingerprint sensor on the back of the device and the size of the screen would reach 5,7 inches.
Presumably LG would be aware of this problem before designing this phone, but bringing a new model to the market as a flagship with a processor that has been on the market for a long time, I don't think it was in their plans, but it is necessary to continue on the market with a new high-end terminal in the world of telephony.
The only good thing, for users who are not aware of whether their smartphone carries the latest of the latest, is that. LG could launch the G6 at a very interesting price, which could be worth it to sell a good handful of phones, something the company is not used to and less with its flagship, although this time it was decaf.
I hope that with the 821 it will be cheaper ... it must have some advantage because with a processor from last year ....... I hope it's cheap….
