Waiting for the review of this device from NBC. I hope it has a PWM-free screen.

Too bad they used IPS and put two selfie cameras (two punch holes), and 20W charging is pretty slow, but overall it looks promising. Where's the fingerprint sensor, and any idea on US availability?

Edit: side-mounted sensor, so not too bad, but looks like it's really tall and heavy :(

Just a note: Sony's flagships also retain expandable storage support (and headphone jack on the latest, too). Their sales might be even lower than LG's perhaps though, but I think it's still important to point out.

I think it's better than a pocophone f3.
3.5mm headphone jack is there, expandable storage is there. And there's adequate RAM and storage.
If and only if Poco had gone for 888 would it have even been compelling option.
High refresh rate AMOLED display isn't something you need in a phone if it reduces the battery life too much.

Sony is still considered a premium options and they sell their phones like that.
LG? They never got a good reputation due to basic mistakes in product design and marketing.
But still the V series is good.

I definitely would love to see how much the G100 would cost in the USA. This, to me, is a proper flagship killer. The fact that this phone has a flagship-grade chipset while still keeping the microSD card support and 3.5mm audio jack alongside having the addition of an ultrawide front camera and USB 3.1 with video output for Ready For support makes this a super compelling choice. IPS LCD 90Hz screen might be a turn off for some people, but I never concern myself much about it. If Motorola put an FM Radio chip in it, that would be the icing on the cake for me.
