LG confirms that V30 will sport OLED Full Vision display

LG has announced that its upcoming flagship killer, widely rumored to be named as the V30 will feature a six inch  2880×1440 OLED screen. V30 is said to be smaller in size than V20, which released last year.

LG is describing the screen as a Full Vision display, meaning it will have a taller 18:9/2:1 aspect ratio and thinner surrounding bezels like a G6. The display is said to cover 109 percent of the DCI-P3 color space and support HDR10. Despite the bigger screen, the upper and lower bezels have been reduced by 20 and 50 percent and the LG logo has been moved to the back panel.

"Expertise in OLED has long been a core competency of LG, and the technology has always been seen as a potential value-add for smartphones. With competition in the global smartphone space fiercer now than ever, we felt that this was the right time to reintroduce OLED displays in our mobile products," said Juno Cho, President, LG Electronics Mobile Communications.

LG used OLED displays for the G Flex in 2013 and G Flex 2 in 2015, but this will be the first time it uses it for a mass-produced flagship phone. The company is expected to launch the V30 phone later this month during the IFA tech show in Berlin.
