LG V20 Specs, Leaks, Price And Release Date: Launch Confirmed For First Android Nougat Smartphone

Rumors and leaks for the LG V20 have quickly culminated when LG announced a launch event for the smartphone, Thursday. News of the device just started circulating in recent weeks, and now, LG has sent out press invites for the LG V20 unveiling on Sept. 6 in San Francisco.

The device is already creating buzz, as it will be the first smartphone to run Android 7.0 Nougat natively. The smartphone will release before Google’s own Nexus devices , which are designed as the ideal hardware for pure Android software. However, LG will likely have a custom user interface for the V20.
