About a month after announcing its next flagship, LG has revealed the price of its upcoming V60 ThinQ While not necessarily cheaper, the LG V60 is clearly less expensive than the Samsung Galaxy S20 and iPhone 11 Pro
The LG V60 ThinQ 5G will cost $799 from T-Mobile when it arrives on Friday (March 20), but this is without the optional dual-screen attachment, and a second 68-inch, Full HD+ OLED for running two apps simultaneously panel will be equipped on the device
Those seeking the additional area will have to spend an extra $100 to purchase the attachment at T-Mobile, raising the price to a very reasonable $899 T-Mobile's press release's wording for T-Mobile customers to take advantage of this deal for buyers is It is a little vague about what exactly they need to do, but they can also get a second device as part of a buy one get one free promotion
Verizon will also sell the V60 ThinQ 5G for $949, though only with dual screens Verizon is running a buy one get one free promotion for customers adding a new line with an unlimited plan, but the V60 will not appear in Big Red until April (Verizon's cellular version runs on Verizon's 5G network, which is built on a different technology than what other carriers currently use)
Finally, AT&T is running its own promotion, giving new subscribers a free V60 ThinQ when they switch from another carrier or purchase a handset on a qualifying plan; like T-Mobile, the V60 will arrive at AT&T on March 20, but will only be available only with a second screen, priced at $900
The cheapest Galaxy S20 is $999, and these are not particularly bad prices considering that it has a 62-inch display, slightly smaller than the V60's 64-inch panel, and does not come with an optional second screen Of course, the S20 has some luxury features that the V60 does not, such as 4GB of RAM and a 120Hz refresh rate
What the V60 does have is 5G connectivity on T-Mobile, AT&T, and Verizon, and a headphone jack Both are rare these days, but ironically the headphone jack feels a bit special at a time when progressively fewer and fewer flagships boast this port
For power users, LG's Dual Screen attachment would also be useful Integration with a second screen was not always ideal and was hampered by pesky software bugs, but running apps side-by-side or using one of the screens as a virtual gamepad to play a given title in the other window was almost effortless to It was usable
A review of the LG V60 ThinQ 5G will be forthcoming
