LG MWC 2016 Press Conference – What to expect

What would you like to see?

We're getting ever closer to the LG MWC 2016 press conference, and it's certain to be a big 'un.

That's because the South Korean tech giant has already confirmed plans to unveil its LG G5 flagship smartphone at the event.

LG's Mobile World Congress reveal is scheduled for February 21 at 14:00 (CET) in Barcelona.

But while the LG G5 might be assured, there's no telling what else the company might have up its sleeve.

Here's a round-up of what we think LG could show off at MWC this year:

LG G5

As mentioned, LG has already confirmed the impending launch of the LG G5 at MWC 2016.

Unfortunately, we've still had no official word on what the LG G5 will actually look like.

Recent rumours suggest the LG G5 will feature an iris-scanner, USB-C, a fingerprint sensor, Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 820 chip, and a removable battery.

It's also highly likely that the LG G5 will ship with Google's latest Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system.

Don't forget that the LG G5 might not necessarily go on sale in February however. A retail date could be set for March or even April.

LG G Flex 3

The LG G5 could be sharing the spotlight with a second smartphone, however: the LG G Flex 3.

LG usually reserves its curved-screen G Flex-series handsets for CES, but 2016's Las Vegas tech bonanza went without incident.

As such, there's a chance we could see LG roll out an LG G Flex 2 sequel at MWC 2016.

There hasn't been much in the way of leaks about an LG G Flex 3, however. The handset would be curved, naturally, and at a guess, we'd say the specs will be similar to that of the LG G5.

LG G Watch Urbane 2 or R 2

Another possible contender for a MWC 2016 launch is a new wearable.

There were plans to launch the LG Watch Urbane 2 in early 2016, but reports suggested the release has been delayed.

Alternatively, LG could unveil a follow-up to the LG G Watch R – or perhaps something entirely new.

LG G Pad

A new LG G Pad tablet is worth mentioning, despite a dearth of leaks around such a device.

We'd say just launching the LG G5 at MWC seems unlikely, so an LG G Pad 3 would be a perfect filler device to satiate Android tablet fans.

If such a tablet does exist, there's a chance we'd see it rocking Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 820 chip, as is the fashion.

Unfortunately, LG hasn't made any mention of any upcoming products other than the LG G5, so don't take this one to heart.
