The LG V20 is almost here. It's launching in South Korea (LG's home country) this week, and should be available to pre-order in the US starting October 2. Until you get the chance to try the new handset for yourself, you may want to check out one of its new features: Signature Wallpaper.

We're not sure we'd include Signature Wallpaper on a list of features to be truly excited about, but LG thinks it's important enough to have its own promo video, which you can watch below. A Signature Wallpaper is a lock screen wallpaper that includes the first character of your signature on V20's secondary display. Just like on the LG V10, you can set a signature for the ticker screen of the V20 - basically, this signature is a text of your own choice that shows up when the screen is off. Not terribly useful, but we guess it's still nice to have.

When you set up a Signature Wallpaper, you can choose various backgrounds for it to make it look the way you want. All in all, this is a quick way to personalize your V20. The LG V20 will be available in the US unlocked, as well as via all major carriers. The handset seems to be a worthy successor to last year's V10, and you can find out more about it from our LG V20 preview.
