LG’s latest flagship - the G8X ThinQ has officially
made its debut and is now available for purchase in US. The phone is up for
grabs through AT&T and will soon make its way to more network providers and
retailers across the country. The full retail is currently listed at US$ 779.99
off-contract but those who’ve pre-ordered the device get the Dual Screen
accessory for free. LG will also include the G8X ThinQ and secondary display
case in varying bundles depending on the retailer/carrier.
The G8X packs flagship specs which include a
6.4-inch OLED display with an FHD+ resolution and UD fingerprint reader. Under
the hood, we have the Snapdragon 855 paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage
which can be expanded via the microSD slot. The camera department relies on a
dual shooter combo with a 12 MP F/1.8 main lens and a 13MP F/2.4 ultrawide
unit.
The battery comes in at 4,000 mAh and supports 21W
fast charging. The software front is covered by LG’s UX 9.0 on top of Android 9
Pie. LG also stuck with the headphone jack which also comes with a 32bit quad
DAC for a more immersive audio experience.
