LG G5 now up for pre-order in the UK for £529

The LG G5 still hasn’t had an official US release date confirmed but with the UK and Canada both getting the phone on April 8 it’s a pretty safe bet it’ll get the same announcement in the very near future. Price-wise, the LG G5 comes out a little bit cheaper than the Galaxy S7 in the UK, which is priced at £560.

The LG G5 is the successor to last year’s LG G4, but it has taken a radical shift away from the familiar design and form factor of the G series. The LG G5 features a modular design that allows accessories and peripherals – called LG Friends – to be controlled remotely with the phone or physically added to the bottom of the phone via a removable section.

Unlike Canada though, those who pre-order the LG G5 in the UK won’t receive a bonus LG CAM. Amazon UK currently doesn’t have any LG Friends listed for pre-order either.
