Reviews for the LG G8X ThinQ

84.6% LG G8X ThinQ Smartphone Review: A convertible among smartphones | Notebookcheck
The G8X ThinQ is a foldable smartphone with a difference. LG has opted for two distinct displays connected via a hinge, a simplistic solution to the more elaborate and expensive foldable smartphones we have seen of late. While the G8X ThinQ is an unusual concept, it still impressed us during our tests.
LG G8X ThinQ Review: Dual OLED Screens, Affordable Android
Source: Hot Hardware English Archive.org version
With everything the LG G8X ThinQ has to offer, it can currently be had for roughly $710, unlocked. In light of today's high-end Android phone market, where $1000+ smartphones are rapidly becoming the norm, the LG G8X ThinQ with its Dual Screen accessory is a relative bargain. If you're in the market for a quality, reliable phone, and don't need to be on the absolute bleeding-edge, the LG G8X ThinQ is worth checking out.

It also helps that the G8X ThinQ Dual-Screen is a respectable smartphone in many other ways, with dependable performance, long battery life, a good-if-not-great screen and — last but never least — a headphone jack. The relatively poor camera performance hampers the G8X a bit, but that’s a price some might be willing to pay for the phone's versatility. For better or worse, there’s really no phone like it out there today.

The G8X ThinQ is LG's unique way of joining the foldable smartphone bandwagon. While this isn't anywhere near the same as the Samsung Galaxy Fold, LG has managed to deliver something close in a cost-effective manner. Since LG bundles the dual-screen accessory with the G8X ThinQ, users get to experience a dual-screen device out of the box at no additional cost. The magnetic connector to charge the phone through the case is also a thoughtful addition.

LG G8X ThinQ review: Capable smartphone with experimental dual-screen case
Source: Business Standard English Archive.org version
At Rs 49,999, the LG G8X ThinQ is expensive, as it does not match competitors in imaging, performance or on-battery time. Nonetheless, it is the only phone that comes with a unique dual-screen case, which is good for multitasking, gaming and browsing the web. Try the LG G8X to experience something fresh, but do not keep your expectations too high.

70% LG G8X ThinQ review: Finally, a second screen that’s actually kind of useful
Source: PC World English Archive.org version
LG's been pushing its second-screen concepts since the V10 in 2015, so it's nice to see it come to fruition here. Even when half-baked and unlikely to realize its full potential, the G8X feels more like a culmination of effort than anything LG has done recently. In a few years, folding screens may be all the rage, and the G8X will seem quaint and comical. For now, it’s a sign of what’s possible with a little outside-of-the-box thinking.

On its own, the G8X is hard to recommend, even at its perennially discounted $700 price tag. But add in the Dual Screen case, which is bundled with the phone no matter where you buy it, and you've got something far more interesting than similarly priced handsets from Samsung and Google.

LG G8X ThinQ Dual Screen review: a few steps shy of perfection
Source: Androidcommunity.com English Archive.org version
The LG G8X ThinQ Dual Screen is a wonderfully eccentric Android smartphone that won’t appeal to everyone. Some might even be rubbed the wrong way by how monstrous the whole contraption looks and feels like. You don’t always need to have the Dual Screen case on, though. You can take it off and slip into your bag (or other pockets) when you don’t need it and put it back on when you do. You don’t even need to have the dual screen turned on even if the case is. Simply turn it off to save battery and make it act like a thick protective cover for the G8X.

The LG G8X is a strange phone – and one showing that LG's mobile division is in dire need of a better strategy. LG's G series is supposed to be represented by quality phones with mass appeal. Instead, the G8X's key feature is a DualScreen case that few people need and fewer people will use. LG's energy and resources would have been much, much better spent had they been invested in a reliable fingerprint reader, a quality selfie camera, and a better software experience.

An experience that's comparable to other flagships, with an extra display as a unique feature. It's not a true folding phone, but it's far cheaper, and great for multi-tasking. However, It's just all let down a little by a software experience that should be better.

Foldable devices are still in their infancy, and that’s a combination of both the current state of hardware and software. LG, for its part, says that it’s still excited about “true” foldables – phones with displays that actually bend – but, having seen the challenges Samsung faced this year, I can’t blame the company for taking baby steps.

LG G8X review: Really weird concept, and I love it

But if you think you want in on the ground floor of this strange folding revolution, I like the G8X a lot, quirks and all. LG is pricing it at just $699, and AT&T is giving them away for free (including the Dual Screen) with a new line right now, and we’re sure to see some great sales on it with the holidays coming up for everyone else. I don’t see this making its way into everyone’s pocket, but I think LG deserves some credit for actually trying something new and sticking the landing.

If you’re not sold on the Dual Screen, then the G8X is a fairly dull flagship for 2019 - decent specs and drab design combine for a handset that shouldn’t disappoint but won't do much to excite either. For those intrigued by a second screen however, the G8X Dual Screen proves that LG might be onto something, fixing almost every pain point from the original design. Folding phones may be the future, but until then the G8X proves that the dual display has its place.

LG G8X ThinQ Dual Screen review: For $700, better productivity than the Galaxy Fold
Source: Zdnet.com English Archive.org version
It's nice to see LG address a couple of the cons that ZDNet's Sandra Vogel listed in her full review. She mentioned lower resolution on the second screen and a poor speaker, but we now have the same resolution on both screens and solid stereo speakers. The resolution on the primary display has been lowered to match the second display, but at 403ppi, I doubt anyone will notice while the slightly better battery life may be worth the change in resolution.

74% LG G8X ThinQ review: More screens aren't always better
Source: Engadget English Archive.org version
As a standalone smartphone, the LG G8X is pretty easily outclassed. As a dual-screen device, it shows potential, but the experience is so inconsistent that the G8X never transcends its status as a gimmick. It is, however, a relatively inexpensive gimmick compared to the rest of the year's high-end phones, and that's enough to help me overlook some of the phone's flaws. Assuming you can get a good deal on one, the G8X isn't a bad way to get a feel for the multiscreen life, as unpolished as it is right now. Just don't mistake this phone for anything but what it really is: a stopgap solution while LG figures out what kinds of devices it really wants to make.

LG G8X ThinQ review: A unique take on the foldable phone fad
Source: Techspot English Archive.org version
To navigate between screens, LG added an on-screen, moveable hotkey that offers fast entry to controls like “swap screens” and “show main on dual screen.” The controls are simple, however it nonetheless took me some time to make use of each screens fluidly and comfortably, and there are occasions even now when I’m a bit befuddled about what I wish to do subsequent after calling up the menu.You will not be capable of watch movies on a seamless, single pill display because of the hinge nor are you able to mirror each screens like you could possibly with the Axon M (that permit me share the identical video with a buddy sitting throughout from me).

The LG G8X's appeal may be niche, but it's an interesting concept that offers an alternative to foldable phones that gives budget-conscious buyers more screen for whatever they want to do on their phone. While the core device isn't too exciting, it packs the leading Snapdragon 855 processor and doesn't lack in performance - but whether to buy really boils down to how much one wants more screen real estate.

For those intrigued by the possibilities of a second screen however, the G8X Dual Screen proves that LG might be onto something here. The bigger panel, better hinge, and front-facing notification display fix almost every pain point from the original design, meaning there’s less to get in the way of getting on with two things at once.

Qualcomm Adreno 640: Graphics chip for smartphones and tablets that is intergrated within the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC. Qualcomm claims that it is 20% faster than the Adreno 630 in the Snapdragon 845 SoC and offers 50% more compute units (ALUs).

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


SD 855: High-end SoC for smartphones that was introduced in late 2018 and manufactured in 7 nm at TSMC. Integrates one “Prime Core” based on a modified ARM Cortex-A76 architecture clocked at up to 2.84 GHz. Three more performance cores are also based on the A76 but clock up to 2.42 GHz. Furthermore, four energy saving cores are integrated that are based on the ARM Cortex-A55 architecture and clock at up to 1.8 GHz. In addition to the processor cores, the SoC integrates a X24 LTE modem (up to 2 Gigbit download), a new Wi-Fi modem (Wi-Fi 6 ready, 60 GHz mmWave), Hexagon 690 DSP with new Tensor cores for AI processing, a Spectra 380 ISP with an integrated computer vision engine and an integrated LPDDR4x memory controller.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


6.40":

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.

LG:

LG Electronics Inc. is a subsidiary of LG Group. It is a South Korean company and was founded as Goldstar Co, Ltd, in 1958. The group offers products in the fields of information technology, consumer electronics and mobile communications, and home appliances. LG Electronics is the world's third largest home appliance manufacturer. As a notebook manufacturer, LG only became known to a wider audience in the German-speaking market in 2005. After a few years, LG largely withdrew from the laptop sector. The product range includes OLED, LED/LCD and plasma TVs, home theater systems, Blu-ray players as well as audio and video players. 


79.63%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
