The New LG G7 Smartphone

The LG G7 is the latest Android phone from the South Korean company that usually releases at least one new phone each year. The company has said it will not release phones just to compete with others and will release it when it is ready. That means probably not March as expected. There are also rumors that LG will call it something else, and that it could abandon the G series altogether. No matter what it ends up being called, and it could still be called the G7, it will be an upgrade and the next level from the G6, which was a great phone according to most reviews. The company has said it is not delaying because of issues with design or performance, and it says the release is on schedule. But it is LG's schedule and that has not been made public.

The battery is listed at 3,000 mAH, which is small for this type of phone. This could be a drawback, making the phone wear down sooner.
