The LG V30 is an Android phablet manufactured by LG Electronics as part of the LG V series. Unveiled on 31 August 2017 as the successor to the LG V20, the V30 forgoes the V20's secondary display for a "floating bar" which has nearly the same functions as the second display. It still features quad DACs for improved audio.[2][3]

History

The phone was teased on 3 August 2017 in a press release from LG showing the bottom half of the FullVision display.[4] On 7 August press invitations were sent out featuring the words "Lights. Camera. Action."[5] Video teasers were later released, advertising the phone's display, audio and camera capabilities.[6][7][8]

The V30 has a Gorilla Glass 5 front and rear plate sandwiching an aluminum body and a 6.0-inch

microSD card.[1]
This is also the first LG smartphone to feature an OLED display.

The LG V30 uses a dual-lens camera setup with a 16-

optical image stabilization
, which corrects for the motion blur caused by shakey hands in photos and videos, but there is no OIS on the wide angle lens.

The V30 supports up to 1

Gbps download speed on 4G. The H932 model of the V30, for T-Mobile, is the first smartphone to support 4G's LTE Band 71, with a frequency of 600 MHz.[10][1]

Software

The V30 ships with

Always on Display feature.[1]

Reception

The V30 has received praise for having one of the most mature dual-camera systems available[12] and for its audio quality, retaining the headphone jack as other premium smartphones stopped providing it,[13] and including multiple audio sensors for input and a 32-bit Quad-DAC (Digital Analog Converter) for output.[10][14]

The phone has been criticized for excessive

Google Pixel 2 XL — which features a display also made by LG.[15]
