LG G5 benchmark scores show it is at par with Samsung Galaxy S7



South Korean company LG's upcoming flagship phone, aka the G5 has apparently been listed on benchmarking website Geekbench , days before its official launch on February 21. The G5's - model number LGE LG-F700S - benchmark scores are at par with those of Samsung's next flagship phone, the Galaxy S7.
 
The LG G5 as per the listing chalks up a single-core score of 2248 and a multi-core score of 5061. The Galaxy S7 on the other hand was listed as scoring 1873 in single-core test and 5946 in multi-core tests previously.
The results are not all that surprising since both the G5 and the Galaxy S7 are expected to come with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 820 processor with 4GB RAM inside.
The Geekbench listing also confirms some of the already rumoured specifications of the G5. According to the listing, the LG G5 is seen honing a 1.59GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor under the hood with 4GB of RAM. The phone is seen running Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
Only yesterday, the company confirmed that the G5 will have an always-on display . It shared a GIF on its official Facebook page teasing the always-on display showing basic notifications in black and white.
The G5 is expected to be unveiled on February 21 - ahead of the MWC 2016 event -- hours before the announcement of the Galaxy S7 by Samsung. Rumoured specs include a dual-camera setup on the back and a modular design offering a removable battery inside. In terms of megapixel count, the phone is expected to sport a 16-megapixel rear camera with 135-degree wide-angle view.
The phone is further said to have a 5.3-inch QHD display boasting of a ticker feature that we recently saw in the company's V10 smartphone.
