      Geric.770, 09 Sep 2018Same here. LG just made the right direction with the G7 One!It all depends on the LG g7 one price. Around $300/320 and its a winner. Around $400 then it will be a hard sell.

        Xhxhyy, 09 Sep 2018If Samsung re-released the Galaxy S7 with updated hardware ... moreYup, S7 non-edge with 5.5" 18.5:9 ratio (no notch) and as thin bezels as the Note 9....Just wow!
        Specs of Note 9 minus S-Pen and it would pretty much become a killer for Samsung

          xyrotic, 09 Sep 20181 word . Notch But the G7 One at least has QHD+ flagship level screen
          It's essentially a G7 ThinQ with V30 ThinQ's specs

            LG just made the right direction with the G7 One!

              LG G7 One should have beaten the Honor Play. As much as I've lost trust in LG's quality as of late, it still has stock Android and last year's flagship SoC.

              At the end of the day, the only phones that matter is between the makers of Android & iOS. Google vs Apple. Samsung is just stealing by copying Apple's style, making fun of them in ads, and using Google's software to make them rich.

                Sony is the best.

                  Kiyasuriin, 09 Sep 2018Hahaha! That's so typical to Huawei. xD Well, I don't mind a lot on cheating benchmarks but I only have a full trust on them on the low end phone category. Even on 6000 PHP($120) Y6 2018, it delivers sharp and natural cameras.

                  Yeah, Huawei doesn't care even if they cheat. XD
                  I remembered the P8 Max DSLR camera days... And still they're successful.

                      If Samsung re-released the Galaxy S7 with updated hardware and software like S9, it will be HUGE HIT for them because XZ3 is loved like Galaxy S7 did.

                          I had voted for the Honor play as well, but after the recent discoveries about the benchmark cheatings and a lacking GPU in a phone advertised for gaming, I've had a change of opinion. Huawei has lost my trust.

                            I voted for G7 One.
                            Sure, last year's SoC but still capable of everything!

                            Nice one, LG!

                              Vic4BBM, 09 Sep 2018Motorola One device would have been best one in mid range. ... moreNo. The reason is it's an iPhone X clone T-T

                                Motorola One device would have been best one in mid range. But it lost it due to 2 prime reasons
                                - Moto ( Lenovo) past of unreliable policy of updates. Which device will be included and which ones excluded, no on elbows till it arrives. Special it's a concern coz Moto phones have always booted near vanilla Android and yet uncertainty looks in terms of timely updates.
                                - notch.

                                Had they cleared these two, Moto is undoubtedly the best one when it comes to mid range ( Moto G is one who started the trend)

                                XZ3 is undoubtedly amongst the premium ones.

                                    G7 One is actually nicer IMO
                                    It essentially is a flagship too, with the still super powerful SD835 (a chipset that even beats the Honor Play's Kirin 970 GPU) with Android One software (we'll have to see how they play with this program).
                                    Sure it's more expensive, but it's all worth it too, since you actually get some bonuses like the still amazing Hi-Fi Quad DAC.
