LG Electronics" first 5G smartphone, the V50 ThinQ, became available via Sprint last month along with the HTC 5G Hub after its debut earlier this year during the Mobile World Congress. Today, Verizon revealed that it will also begin selling the handset from June 20.
The V50 ThinQ adds to the list of 5G smartphones available through Verizon. Samsung"s Galaxy S10 5G, for example, went on sale via the wireless carrier last month at a starting price of $1,299.99. In addition, Verizon"s 5G service is available on the Moto Z3 and Z4 with the 5G Moto Mod accessory.
Verizon"s pricing for LG"s 5G phone remains unknown for now. Of course, you can only access Verizon"s 5G network with the device in certain places where it launched the next-generation cellular network technology including Chicago and Minneapolis.
As a quick recap, the V50 ThinQ is powered by a Snapdragon 855 SoC paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage, expandable up to 2TB with a microSD card slot. It sports a 6.4-inch OLED FullVision display and boasts a triple camera setup on the back consisting of a 12MP main shooter, a 16MP wide-angle camera, and a 12MP telephoto camera.
