In September we showed you a comparison between the iPhone 8 Plus and the LG V30. The South Korean technology company has decided to bet a lot on this latest device, which could currently be considered its flagship and also a reflection of the new strategy that the brand will follow in the short and medium term based on the decline in the creation of new smartphones.
This new tactic would also be based on the improvement of the existing supports, or at least the most significant ones, with which the firm will try to gain more ground. Today we are going to tell you more about two special editions of your latest phablet and what will be the highlight of both. We start with a curious fact: One of them could exceed 1500 euros and become one of the most expensive phablets today, rivaling Apple terminals.
1. Signature Edition, only for a few
We start with what could be the most exclusive terminal of the Asian firm. The most striking thing about this model will be the materials used for its manufacture: Its casing will be manufactured in a mixture between ceramic and zirconia. This last material, according to its creators and how they collect from PhoneArena, it would offer a very high resistance to bumps and scratches. However, it would affect the price of the terminal. Other improvements we would see in the RAM, which would go from 4 GB of the initial V30 to 6, and in storage, which would go to 256 GB. As we said at the beginning, it would be one of the most expensive mobile phones today, since its price is 2 million South Korean won, about 1500 Euros. Furthermore, only 300 units that will have the name of their owners engraved on the casing.

2. The LG V30 that will see the light in Barcelona
The other new member of the family will not reach the level of the first support that we have talked about, however, in terms of performance, it will not be far from it, since it will maintain, in theory, that 6 GB RAM and that initial memory of 256. It has been confirmed that it will be officially presented at the MWC along with another element that will attract a lot of attention: LG Lens, which, broadly speaking, is an artificial intelligence inserted in the cameras that aims to obtain the best possible photographs and also improve the experience of using this component by speeding up the reading times of the QR codes, carrying out simultaneous translations and offering shopping suggestions and real-time indications.
Do you think that these improvements will help the brand manage to face other firms from countries such as China or Japan and especially to compete against its other great rival: Samsung? We leave you available related information such as, for example, a comparison of the Galaxy Note 8 against the LG V30 so you can give your opinion.
