This week in Android: HUAWEI P40, LG V60, and the global shift in streaming
HUAWEI has been in the news far too often for political reasons, let’s bring it back to phones: Announcing the HUAWEI P40 series. It all started a day early with a full specs leak, then the official announcement was on March 26th with the P40, P40 Pro and P40 Pro Plus. The most expensive of the three offers a 10x optical zoom, call us impressed. Scroll down in this post to see the highlights from our hands-on with the phones.
The LG V60 is hitting the market, we went hands-on and we have feelings about it. On one hand, we applaud LG for sticking to their ideals, on the other, we wonder if the word “innovation” is safe to say within their offices. Either way, the V60 is a solid phone offering, but is it the phone for you?
