A leakster on reddit claims to have a fairly full set of specs for the LG G5 believed to be in the works for 2016 and if accurate, LG fans will have something to cheer about. One of the key changes revealed by an image alleged to be of a prototype LG G5 is that the company is transitioning their G series to a glass and metal frame that seems to be sweeping the industry. One of the byproducts of that decision will be the elimination of a user removable battery, but access to a microSD card slot is still retained.

According to the information provided, the LG G5 will come with a 5.3-inch screen, which is a bit smaller than some previous indications that LG was going to stick with a 5.5-inch or 5.6-inch display. There is also mention of a “pressure sensor” but it is unclear whether this is a reference to an atmospheric pressure sensor or whether LG is working on incorporating pressure-sensing features into the screen.

Like many other flagship devices in the works for 2016, the LG G5 is likely going to be powered by a Snapdragon 820 processor. This will be mated with 3GB of RAM to help keep things moving smoothly.

The leaked image and specs also point to a dual-camera configuration for the LG G5, with one of the sensors running at 16MP and the other running at 8MP. Sources think LG will provide laser autofocus and there has been some speculation that a color spectrum sensor will be packed into the smartphone.

Some of the other hardware includes a heart rate sensor, a fingerprint reader built into a power key similar to the LG V10, an IR blaster, a USB-C port, and a single speaker located in the back of the device. There have been rumors that LG may add an iris scanner in an effort to move security beyond fingerprints, but the presence of that technology was not mentioned in this latest leak.
