LG G8 ThinQ Full-Specifications And Review

LG has produced what appears to be a timely update to last year’s LG G7, and in its own right it isn’t a bad device. However, to turn heads and make sales in the current market it’s unclear if the G8 Thinq offers enough appeal to tear people away from what else is out there.

The LG G8 has a 6.1-inch OLED display with a notch, matching the size and top cutout of the G7, but not the display type. Last year’s phone had an LCD screen touting something LG called "Super Bright mode."

                 LG G8 has 128GB of internal storage with 6GB of RAM, expandable with a microSD card slot. That’s up from 64GB of storage in the LG G7, which is some relief. The 32-bit Hi-Fi Quad DAC also makes it a good value if you’re an audiophile.

RELEASE DATE AND PRICE 

LG's G8 ThinQ smartphone will be released on April 11, after being announced back in late February. Pricing for the LG G8 will start at $820, which places LG's phone in line with its main rivals from Samsung.
