LG just launched G8s ThinQ, the company’s latest
top-end smartphone in India, after it was introduced at the MWC earlier this
year. It has a 6.2-inch FullVision
FHD+ OLED display, is powered by
Snapdragon 855 with 6GB of RAM, runs Android Pie, has triple rear cameras that
includes a 12-megapixel main camera, 13-megapixel 137˚ super wide-angle camera
and a 12-megapixel telephoto lens. It has stereo speakers, 3.5mm headphone jack
and DAC, 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass back, MIL-STD 810G compliance and IP68
water and dust resistance.
On the front it sports a standard 8-megapixel sensor
and a 3D ToF front camera that measures the distance between the subject and
the camera in millimeters to control the intensity of the background blur up to
256 levels for selfies with more depth. It also offers enhanced security with
Hand ID and Face Unlock. Hand ID uses the Z Camera’s ability to scan a user’s
unique circulatory pattern using infrared light making unlocking the phone in
the dark just as accurate as during the day. The Z Camera is Air Motion, a
touchless command interface that allow users to perform various actions without
touching the screen.
