The latest iteration of the acclaimed V series, the LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup>\nincorporates a total of five cameras, and is a multimedia powerhouse device designed\nfor today\u2019s generation of storytellers who communicate with visuals and videos.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> retains\nthe V series design philosophy with an improved 6.4-inch FullVision OLED\ndisplay and even slimmer bezels than before. Powered by the Qualcomm<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\nSnapdragon&#x2122; 845 Mobile Platform paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal\nstorage, the LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> delivers powerful features that have made\nthe LG V series a favorite among smartphone users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Five Cameras in One Smartphone for Varied\nPerspective<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> is\ndesigned to deliver a truly all-encompassing smartphone camera experience. It features\na rear camera module with three different lenses: 16MP super wide-angle, 12MP standard\nangle and 12MP telephoto. The three lenses allow shutterbugs to conveniently frame\ndifferent shots without having to change their positions relative to the\nsubject. The 107-degree super wide-angle lens captures more view in a frame,\nsuch as a vast mountain range or stunning lake, without having to physically\nstep back to get more in a shot. The telephoto with 2x optical zoom (or 3.2x\nthe zoom of the wide-angle lens) allows users to take clear shots of distant\nsubjects, such as wildlife animals or birds, without much loss in image\nquality. The Triple Shot feature stitches together the images captured with\neach of the three lenses into a short video file for easy sharing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The front camera features a 5MP wide-angle\nand 8MP standard angle lens that work in tandem to create the perfect bokeh\neffect, with an on-screen slider to adjust the amount of background blur. Other\nfeatures allow selfie lovers to personalize their photos even more with unique\nlighting and special effects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pixel size of the main rear camera\nsensor has been improved by about 40 percent compared to the LG V30+, increasing\nfrom 1\u03bcm to 1.4\u03bcm, and the image sensor is more than 18 percent larger than its\npredecessor. In addition to delivering the sharpest and brightest images of any\nLG smartphone camera, the F1.5 aperture of the main camera delivers greater\ndepth of field, half the shutter lag and significantly faster burst mode\ncompared with the LG V30+.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Perfect Shot, Made Easy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is\nmore, the smartphone boasts Dual PDAF (Phase Detection Auto Focus), which delivers\nautomatic focusing that is 50 percent faster \u2014 about twice as fast as the\nindustry average. The advanced HDR feature analyzes and determines the right\nexposure settings to create perfectly lit shots, eliminating overexposed\nbackgrounds or underexposed subjects. Hence, subjects are always in perfect\nfocus because the camera checks sharpness continuously until the shutter button\nis pressed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LG has also upgraded the camera in\nthe LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> to be even more powerful and intuitive than ever,\ncapable of delivering the most ideal color, composition, white balance and\nshutter speed. The AI CAM\u2019s new AI Composition feature taps into the phone\u2019s\nintelligence to frame, capture and recommend an alternative shot to the one\ntaken by the user. AI Auto White Balance automatically adjusts the color\ntemperature across different lighting situations while AI Shutter selects the\nright shutter speed, a feature especially useful when capturing fast-moving subjects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other new\nfeatures such as Cine Shot, 3D Light Effect, Makeup Pro, Custom Backdrop and\nStory Shot take the photography experience on the LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> to new\nheights. Cine Shot makes creating cinemagraphs \u2013 images with animation \u2013\nincredibly easy and fun. Simply shoot a short video with any of the phone\u2019s\nthree rear cameras and \u201cpaint\u201d the area to be animated with a finger. 3D Light\nEffect changes the tone of a photo with professional-looking lighting. Touch up\nany selfie with different looks using Makeup Pro or entirely change the\nbackground of a selfie with Custom Backdrop. Story Shot allows users to create\nfun photo composites. Simply choose a background image from existing photos in\nthe photo gallery, or take a new backdrop with the smartphone. Then users can take\na selfie which will superimpose them onto the background photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A Sonorous Sound Experience <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LG has been\nfeaturing high-fidelity audio in its smartphones and the V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> is\nno exception, being the first LG phone to carry the <em>Audio Tuned by Meridian<\/em> label. The 32-bit Hi-Fi Quad DAC produces a\nbalanced sound signature that comes extremely close to the quality of an\noriginal recording. And Boombox Speaker, originally introduced on the LG G7+<sup>ThinQ<\/sup>,\ndoubles the bass of conventional smartphone speakers by utilizing the internal\nspace of the device as a resonance chamber. When placed on a solid surface or hollow\nbox, the LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> acts like a woofer to amplify the bass even\nmore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Minimalist Design Built for Lasting Durability &nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The clean lines and sophisticated\ncolors emphasize the main design elements of the LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup>: smooth\ntouch, unique color and seamless form. Its proprietary Silky Blast<sup>TM<\/sup>\nprocess etches the tempered glass back with microscopic pits to create a\nsmoother matte finish which feels extremely comfortable in the hand. The matte\nglass also offers a high resistance to fingerprints and stains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> retains the slim and light design heritage of the V series, weighing only 169g and measuring a svelte 7.7mm in thickness. Like its predecessor, the LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> is IP68 rated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith the LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup>, creating and sharing high-quality content has never been easier for the\nprosumer,\u201d said Mr Shawn Han, Managing Director of LG Electronics Singapore. \u201cThe five cameras offer incredible versatility, and with the camera\u2019s\nartificial intelligence capabilities, users can take stunning photographs that\nstand out on social media platforms.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The LG V40<sup>ThinQ<\/sup> will be available in Singapore from January 26, 2019 in Platinum Gray, Moroccan Blue and Carmine Red colors. Retailing at S$1,098, the V40<sup>ThinQ <\/sup>will be available for purchase at M1, Singtel, and StarHub. Purchase the smartphone from 26 January to 22 February, 2019, and receive a complimentary LG W7 Watch in Silver (model LMW315) worth S$598[1].
