		</div><p>A modular smartphone that enables users to attach additional features, such as a better camera lens, has been unveiled by LG.</p>
<p>The new LG G5 comes with a removable battery slot, enabling additional features including a camera and a speaker to be slotted into this area, with the battery at the base of the phone.</p>
<p>The Korean firm’s president, Juno Cho, described the new device as “an adventurous theme park in your pocket”.</p>
<p><a href="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/image-99.jpg" rel="attachment wp-att-86151"><img src="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/image-99.jpg" alt="image" width="600" height="333" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-86151" /></a></p>
<p>Google is also working on a modular smartphone where users can add and remove features, though it is thought to be far from completion. A small second battery inside the phone keeps it running while any swap is made.</p>
<p>LG made the announcement at a press conference ahead of the Mobile World Congress technology show in Barcelona.</p>
<p>The G5 will also have an “always-on screen”, though LG added this will only highlight part of the screen and use less than 1% of the battery every hour.</p>

<p>The phone’s rear camera also comes with a wide angle lens, which can be used to take photos in a 135 degree range – wider than the viewing range of the human eye.</p>
<p>LG also announced its own virtual reality headset, following in the footsteps of a host of companies to create such a device.</p>
<p>The LG 360 VR connects to the G5 smartphone, and has a dedicated screen for each eye, which LG says makes images shown 20% sharper than other headsets. It is being powered by Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon processor, one of the most powerful available.</p>
<p><a href="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/image-102.jpg" rel="attachment wp-att-86154"><img src="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/image-102.jpg" alt="image" width="600" height="450" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-86154" /></a></p>
<p>Facebook-owned Oculus, PlayStation and HTC are all due to release VR headsets in the coming months.</p>
<p>The technology giant also unveiled a 360-degree camera that can be used to take photos and video, as well as post to Google Street View.</p>
<p>A spherical robot called the Rolling Bot was also revealed. Controlled remotely over a Wi-Fi network, the firm said it could be used as a home security product and comes complete with a Pet Care mode so users can monitor and even talk to their pets when they’re not home – as well as beam a small laser onto the floor for them to play with.</p>
