LG G5 leak

LG’s upcoming flagship, the LG G5, has leaked in its first live photos that give us a clear look at its new design and dual-camera setup at the rear. And that’s not all, the phone has been listed on an e-commerce website for sale at 2,500 dirhams (~$675$).

The handset in picture was obtained by one lucky guy, which was imported from the United States, and is now selling it on Dubizzle — even before the handset has been officially unveiled by LG.

From the leaked photos, it is clear that the LG G5 is not going to look anything like the G4 or any other handset released by LG before, though the different color of the bottom bezel is reminiscent of the LG G3. The photos also confirm the metal body of the handset, the presence of a fingerprint scanner at the rear, and a dual-camera setup with an LED flash, a LaserAF and an Color IR sensor squashed in between them.

The pictures, however, don’t give us a look at the secondary display of the LG G5, which many rumors have pointed to before. The much-hyped ‘Magic Slot‘ is also nowhere to be seen in the photos. It is entirely possible that we are looking at a slightly older prototype of the G5 here that does not come with these features.

Whatever the case might be, we don’t have to wait for long to know how the LG G5 looks as LG is all set to unveil the handset early next week.
