LG V20 confirmed as one of the first Android 7 smartphones

LG V20 confirmed as one of the first Android 7 smartphones

Last year's LG V10 was arguably a more interesting phone than its main LG G4 flagship offering two screens, two selfies cameras and a phablet sized main display - and LG has seen fit to update it for 2016.

LG has confirmed it will launch the V20 in September in a blog post on its website. It's going to run Android 7 Nougat software and will likely be one of the very first phones to do so.

We liked the original phone giving the LG V10 four stars praising it for a strong dual-lens selfie camera, durable design and an interesting second screen concept.

However, it only launched in certain markets, including the US, so those in the UK missed out on the dual-screen phone. It's possible LG may launch the V20 worldwide though, but we'll have to wait and see.

Last week, LG confirmed the G5 has not sold as well as the company had hoped. It's official statement on its second quarter financials said, "An operating loss of KRW 153.5 billion (c.US$132.1m, £100m, AU$175m) reflected increased marketing expenditures and somewhat slow initial sales of G5 smartphone."

Fingers crossed the LG V20 proves more of a success for the South Korean company
