LG V30+ Review 
LG's move to bring the features of its new model to its previous handset is likely to appeal to existing users. However, it is interesting to see how the company would persuade new customers to buy the V30S ThinQ and V30S+ ThinQ that merely have more RAM and some additional gigabytes of storage over their predecessors.
To recall, the price of LG V30+ in India is Rs. 44,990. It runs Android 7.1.2 with the LG UX 6.0 skin on top and sports a 6-inch QHD+ (1440x2880 pixels) FullVision OLED display. It is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC, paired with 4GB of RAM. The LG V30+ bears a dual rear camera setup, with one 16-megapixel sensor and a 13-megapixel sensor. V30+ bears 128GB of inbuilt storage, expandable via microSD card (up to 2TB) in a hybrid dual-SIM configuration. It runs on a 3300mAh battery.
