The device comes with premium hardware and runs the latest software with LG’s underpinnings, but its area of expertise lies in its modular functionality,that is the ability to hook up add-ons that will let users improve the capabilities of the smart phone.
The LG G5 sports an all metal construction with a rounded pebble-shaped design. The smart phones will be available in Titan, Gold and Silver. The smart phone has a primer coating on top of the metal that lets LG hide the antenna bands that are usually visible and which ruins the visual appearance of the smart phones. Tagged as LG Friends, the modular add on accessories allows the user to expand the capabilities of the smart phone and includes everything right from a 360-degree camera to the Hi-Fi Plus audio module which is approved by Bang and Olufsen. The user will have to buy the accessories separately.
