LG’s flagship phone delivers HDR-grade video content from Netflix and Amazon Video that Dolby promises will save on battery life and data consumption.
Dolby Vision promises to make your videos on the LG G6 look more like the image on the right.
Dolby, the audio and imaging quality developer, announced Sunday at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona that the LG G6 will be the first phone to support its Dolby Vision high dynamic range video technology.
“The LG G6 is one of the most prominent smartphones with a very important position in the mobile market and it’s an industry endorsement that Dolby Vision really works,” Taeho Oh, vice president of consumer electronics for Dolby, told CNET.
With Dolby Vision on the LG G6 consumers will notice image quality that comes closer to what the human eye can see. This means videos will be brighter, with a better contrast between light and dark, and with a wider color gamut.
Conceived originally for the cinema and now available on televisions, including LG and Vizio models, the LG G6’s 5.7-inch screen will be the smallest so far to host the Dolby Vision HDR. But the smaller screen size won’t affect the image detail nor will the surrounding light environment that the viewer finds themselves in while watching, Oh explained.
