Following the launch of the K and Q series last week, LG mobile on Sunday evening took the wrap off its latest flagship G an V series – the LG G8 ThinQ and the LG V50 ThinQ. While the V50 touts 5G and a secondary display, the G8 touts improved users experience offering features like a ToF front-facing camera and a front-display speaker. While the LG G8 ThinQ is a powerhouse on its own, it gets a sibling – the LG G8 s ThinQ that is almost a copy of itself.
The G8s ThinQ got the same design with a triple camera setting but swaps the QHD display for a lesser resolution display. The battery, as well as the camera, changed, and while it still triple lenses, it swaps the G8 16MP super wide camera for a 13MP Sensor, while the 8MP remains.
