On October 21, 2017, Japanese telecommunications operators KDDI and Okinawa Cellular Telephone Company jointly hosted a press conference in Tokyo titled "au HOME Presentation with au 2017 Winter Model."

Overview & specifications

The successor to the LGV34, this handset is a localized version of the global LG V30 model tailored for Japan. Although it carries the "isai" branding, it also falls under the LG V series lineage. Compared to its predecessor, the screen size has increased, and it includes support for Google's Daydream virtual reality platform. While previous models utilized IPS LCDs, the J-SH03 utilizes an OLED panel, marking a return to the display technology for the series since the LGL23. Video recording performance has been significantly upgraded with the inclusion of the "Cine Video" suite, designed to produce cinematic effects.

It also features a "Point Zoom" functionality that enables smoother focal adjustments by smoothly centering and zooming onto whichever area of the display the user touches. On the audio front, the tuning remains supervised by Bang & Olufsen, with newly added support for playback of the MQA audio format. Among its other utilities, it is the first device in the isai lineup to offer shock resistance verified to the MIL-STD 810G standard.

While not explicitly highlighted in initial promotions, the device also includes built-in support for Qi wireless charging and is capable of reading Japanese Individual Number Cards (My Number Cards).

It features a 6.0-inch "FullVision" organic light-emitting diode (OLED) screen. The display boasted a QHD+ resolution of 1440 × 2880 pixels, yielding a sharp pixel density of approximately 538 pixels per inch (ppi).^[4]

In addition to its standard display capabilities, the device features native compatibility with Daydream, Google's virtual reality platform. This integration enables users to immerse themselves in a wide array of interactive media, including panoramic sports broadcasts, immersive gaming experiences, cinematic releases, and other specialized VR content.^[5]
