As you may already know, OnePlus today unveiled a premium mid-range smartphone. But wait, LG also has one of those. Sure, the Korean company may have already fully unveiled the Velvet, but today it decided to announce availability details for the U.S.
The LG Velvet will be released in the United States on July 22, that is, tomorrow, for $ 599, from AT&T. T-Mobile and Verizon will offer it “later this summer.” Velvet will be offered in Aurora Gray, Aurora Silver, Aurora Red and Pink White.
As expected, the Verizon model will support that operator’s mmWave 5G network, so it will be called the LG Velvet 5G UW (not the first time we’ve seen this).
LG’s marketing campaign for the Velvet in the US includes Jason Derulo, with additional celebrities in the near future.
The Velvet is LG’s latest attempt to conquer the mobile world, focusing on design and usability rather than raw specs. If you’re intrigued, don’t miss our full in-depth review, where we also talked about the dual-screen accessory.
