- AT&T has now told us the V20 will be available in its stores starting October 28th, so it's likely pre-orders will ship on or perhaps even before that date.
The LG V20 is perhaps the best phone released by LG in recent history. Instead of the modular functionality of the LG G5, the V20 was designed as an all-in-one solution for power users. It even has features rare on flagship devices, like a removable battery and a fantastic headphone amp. The V20 is also the only non-Google phone to currently ship with Android 7.0 Nougat.
AT&T has announced pre-orders for the V20 will begin tomorrow, although unfortunately neglected to provide a shipping date. Also unfortunate is the price - a whopping $830 over 30 monthly payments ($27.67 per month). If you're on AT&T's Next Every Year plan, the V20 will cost $34.59/month for 24 months.
AT&T is unfortunately not including a free pair of Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H3 headphones, which T-Mobile is offering with V20 purchases for a limited time. However, they are offering an LG G Pad X 10.1 for $0.99 with a two-year agreement, if you're already on Next or Next Every Year.
