Aside from being the first smartphone with Android 7.0 Nougat, the V20 will also be the first to come with 32-bit Hi-Fi Quad DAC capabilities.

This means that audio and video experience on the smartphone will be quite impressive, as the feature has the capacity to reduce up to 50% of ambient noise levels and can deliver live performance experience when used with wired headphones.

RAM capacity is said to reach 4GB and the smartphone will come with a dual camera setup on the back, as leaked images indicated.

An all metal body will certainly make this smartphone attractive on the market, aside from the fact that it will be running the latest version of Android OS. Android 7.0 Nougat started rolling out to Nexus devices, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Nexus 6, Nexus 9, Nexus Player, and Pixel C.
