A new LG G5 and Samsung Galaxy S7 leak out of Dubai has revealed both devices in earnest ahead of their MWC reveal.
We’ve previously reported on both rumours and leaks surrounding two very exciting flagship phones, but now we have a double whammy of news out of Dubai, a new LG G5 and Samsung Galaxy S7 leak has revealed both devices in earnest.
The two flagship devices, which are set (or, were set) to be the headliners of the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain this year have been revealed in packaging through a sales listing in Dubai.

The LG G5, which according to rumour has been ‘imported from the US’, is allegedly priced at $680 USD. The device, which is pictured in its retail box, shows an all-metal design with a fingerprint scanner and dual-camera setup, and seemingly confirms the presence of a slide-out battery tray on the underside of the device.
The LG G5’s packaging shows a new direction for the Korean company, and resembles plain cardboard versus the distinctive packing the company’s G series products usually arrive in.

According to the website Dubizzle, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge will cost $1,150 USD and $1,225 USD respectively, and, according to the sales listing, were similarly ‘imported from the USA.’
Leaked retail boxes show a design which is similar to that which has been depicted in past leaks; a more rounded revision of the Galaxy S6’s design. The retail boxes themselves are reminiscent of those first unveiled for the Galaxy Note 5.
Both handsets were listed on the website on the 16th of February, which is just shy of the scheduled reveal of both which was slated to occur on the 21st of February at independent media events.
