LG drops more hints about G6 in MWC invite

It seems now’s the best time for LG to steal Samsung’s thunder at the Mobile World Congress 2017 in Barcelona. With Samsung delaying the release of the Galaxy S8, this could be LG’s big chance to capitalize on it. Engadget received their invite for the G6’s unveiling at MWC. It has the words: “Big Screen… That Fits.” The words as well as the diagram shows off a device with a minimal bezel but it’ll come in the size you can manage. LG has previously said the device will have a unique 18:9 ratio display and calls it Full Vision. We can’t say if LG plans to drop more hints about its upcoming flagship but what we do know is it’ll be debuting on February 26.

You’ll need to press on the Comment Mode icon on each video if you want to see what comments people have been leaving there. Of course, we know there are a lot of toxic and nasty comments left on these video. But if this is how you want to interact with the service or you’re actually having intelligent conversation there (or you’re in it for the laughs), then this might be worth a try.
