Under the hood, the smartphone will carry the almighty Snapdragon 845 which scored 2425 points in the single-core test and 8769 in the multi-core. Thanks to the latest Qualcomm’s chipset the smartphone should be in line with the flagships available in the market.
The model tested has 6GB of RAM and carries LM-V405 model number. When it comes to the Android version, here comes a surprise: Android 8.1 Oreo. Well, with at least two months of availability not shipping a flagship with the latest Android 9 Pie is simply inexcusable. Especially when the other flagships expected for October are likely to come with Google’s latest Pie.
The smartphone will ship with Oreo out-the-box and future owners probaby will need to wait 2-months for an update.
