LG V30+ Review:
I had only a few minutes with this smartphone at its launch event. But that was enough to leave me impressed. It has an excellent set of specifications. I don't know how its camera would perform, but it does sound excellent. V30+ looks awesome and is a very light-weight device. Keeping in mind other latest flagship smartphones like Google Pixel 2, Samsung Galaxy S8, HTC U11 etc., I was expecting V30+ to be priced at around 60k or more. But LG gave a very pleasant surprise by pricing it at only Rs. 44,990 in India. At this price, LG V30 is an excellent offering and should do well against the competition.
