South-Korean based LG will be unveiling their new phablet (phone + tablet), LG G4 Pro.

The report by PC Advisor confirms that LG will be releasing LG G4 Pro, a V10 dual-screen smartphone also known as LG V10 UK. According to Tech Times, the LG G4 Pro has been listed on GFXBench including its key specs.

The device will reportedly run on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop with a 5.7-inch screen size with 2560x1440 quad-HD display. Its processor is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 and will have a 4 GB LPDDR3 RAM memory. It will have a storage space of 64 GB that can be extended up to 2 TB with a microSD.

The LG V10 also has two cameras: one 16 MP rear camera with F/1.9 aperture and two front cameras with different lenses, one for "normal" 80-degree selfies and another for wide angle selfies at 120 degrees.

LG said in a statement that the "ability to take group selfies without a selfie-stick has never been easier" with this feature.

According to the report by the PC Advisor, LG claims that LG V10 is the first smartphone camera to have a manual video mode. You can reportedly adjust the ISO, focus, shutter speed, frame rate and choose to either shoot in full HD, 4K or simply HD in 16:9 or 21:9 aspect ratios.

It seems like LG G4 Pro's new features and hardware will strain the battery that is not the case. The V10 reportedly has a 3,000 mAh removable battery pack where you can easily swap another one just in case you get battery low. With the Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 chip, charging the smartphone's battery will be a breeze. The Quick Charge will give the battery a 50 percent charge in just 40 minutes.

For connectivity, the device will have Blutetooth 4.1, USB 2.0, fingerprint scanner, and 802.11ac Wi-Fi. As for colors, the LG V10 will come in space black, luxe white, modern beige, ocean blue and opal blue. The LG G4 Pro will only weight 192 grams and have a 6x79.3x8.6mm dimension.

According to LG, the V10 will be available in Korea this month and in United States, China and select countries in Asia, Latin America and Middle East. The release dates will be announced locally in each country. As for the price, it is expected to be no cheaper than £500.

According to the International Business Times, the LG G4 Pro release date and price will reportedly be officially announced on Oct. 10.
