The release of new flagship [LG](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flagship-gaming-laptop) smartphones is always hugely anticipated with good reason, and the upcoming LG G5 SE should continue to burnish the brand's reputation as a quality manufacturer of high-quality smartphone devices.

This particular device is expected to be powered by a [Snapdragon 652 processing unit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snapdragon-g-series) for improved performance, and will come with 3 GB of random access memory in place of the 4 GB available on the regular LG G5 variant. Elsewhere, the phone is largely the same as its predecessor, and is expected to sport a 5.3-inch QHD display along with a healthy resolution of 1,440 x 2,560 pixels along with 32 GB of onboard storage.

Ultimately, this new LG smartphone will appeal to people looking for a [complete smartphone with good processing power](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xiaomi-15s-pro) and photographic abilities to boot.
