LG need the V30 to be a success and at 1,000 EUR or USD that is never going to happen.

Nope! Don't think anyone knows the release date yet.

South Korea gets it on Thursday apparently. Looks like there will be some VR package available in some markets.

LG just sent us a press release about the V30 global launch today, and it is starting with its home turf of South Korea, of course, but the phone will be gradually rolled out to North America, Europe and other markets in the coming weeks, tips LG. Unfortunately, there are no pricing details for the Americas or Europe, but in Korea the LG V30 is expected to land with a tag equivalent to $840 for the 64 GB version, and $885 for the 128 GB model.

As a reminder, amidst all the bezel-less controversies surrounding Apple's "notch" on the iPhone X, or the form factor of the Galaxy S8, the LG V30 actually manages to stuff a 6" HDR display, albeit also in the trendy 18:9 aspect, into a body that is no bigger than that of a compact 5.5-incher, which is a sweet feat.

It also sports dual cameras with zoom and depth of field tricks, excellent audio prowess, a comfortable rear-placed power key/finger scanner, and an exquisite glass chassis that is a pleasure to feel or simply look at. LG might have a winner on its hands with the V30 this time around, as, in the era of thousand dollar phones, its high price might go down unnoticed.

Korean version(V300L) can be got for about €735 here
Dunno if there is any issue with using Korean version here besides no warranty obviously?

Bought a Huawei Mate 8 from them about 2 years ago. No problems, delivery took about 2 weeks iirc.
Considering it myself, just waiting to see what the Pixel 2 XL is like.

Just in case anyone looking at this didn't see it. It says 'in stock' but only available to ship from 12 Oct 2017.

It said the 6th yesterday!

Edit: Emailed them and they said it changed due to Korean holidays at the moment.

Cool, thanks! Did you get standard shipping or the expedited?

I went for standard, think the expedited was a hefty 30 pound back then, maybe that's changed since? If I do order from them I might go for the pre-installed tempered glass, just wary it could be a waste of money if it isn't applied properly and/or poor quality

Seems like it is 20GBP now. Didn't see any option for the tempered glass myself.

They are very easy to self-install anyway so I'll probably buy it separate.

669GBP = 754 euro at the moment using a Revolut card.
