LG introduce the G8X ThinQ smartphone at the IFA
2019 last month and said that it will be introduced as V50S ThinQ with 5G
support in Korea. Today the company announced the roll out of V50S ThinQ in
Korea. It packs a 6.4-inch FullVision FHD+ OLED display, is powered by
Snapdragon 855 with 8GB of RAM, runs Android Pie with improved user interface,
has dual rear cameras, 13MP 136-degree super wide-angle and 12MP standard
sensor. There is also a 32-megapixel camera that merges four pixels to form
large 1.6μm pixels for better output.
The new 6.4-inch OLED FHD+ (2340 x 1080 pixels)

users check the time, date, battery charge, notifications and other useful
information without opening the Dual Screen. The new Dual Screen adopts a new
360 Freestop Hinge to allow for viewing at any angle (0, 104° and 180°), just
