LG G7 ThinQ review

03 July 2018
LG is finally releasing a G-series phone with the latest Snapdragon - yay! Regardless whether we have some supply chain optimization or LG's product planning to thank, the fact of the matter is the G7 ThinQ is now available internationally and it's a proper high-end device.

    Dixienormas, 13 Oct 2018So...the camera I'd say is on par with an iPhone but not as... moreWhat about the security updates? Do u receive them regularly?

      So...the camera I'd say is on par with an iPhone but not as good as a SGS8/9/note etc. But the LG G7thinQ is blazing fast and battery life is better than any Samsung phone I have ever owned. The wireless charging is quick and cable charging is 1 of the fastest on the market to date.
      I've been using mine since I got it in june 2018 and it has been excellent, absolutely no lagging and crashing issues whatsoever,
      it runs a lot smoother than my previous SGS notes & 7/8/9's.
      The screen is just stunning and the sound from the hi-fi quad DAC and DTS:X 3D surround is awesome.

        have you testes the audio jack with high impedance headphones and activated HIFI DAC?

        "Plugging in the headphones brought the volume down significantly - the G7 ThinQ was actually below average in this case which was surprising and means bigger headphones might not be as loud as we would like."

          What about wireless charging, the great Quad DAC and FM RADIO?
          that should be the most selling points! the price even dropped to 520€ in europe.

            LG vs Sony.

            what do u thinQ :P

            more specifically i wud put it like- LG G7/V40 ThinQ vs Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium/XZ3??

            this is the most baffling question that is dragging me back from buying my next smartphone.

                I was going through the reviews by the mobile experts / professors, here in flipkart page. But I am a simple man and I use my mobile phone for my daily needs. Before, I used lots of brands and their expensive models. Lastly, before purchasing this one, I was using LG G4 Dual Sim H818N. And I used it for two years. I was very satisfied during this two years on usage of this great LG G4. I dropped it so many times but nothing happened, build quality is so good. It never hanged up and never gave me any kind of trouble. I am a moderate to heavy user and after using LG G4 for a long period, I became LG's fan.

                Recently I was looking for the change of my hands by a new one. I found three options in the market. Asus Zenfone 5z, one+ six and Huawei Nova3/honor10. And I was very confused to select one among these three/four models. Suddenly Honor Play launched under 20K with same processor (Kirin 970). My confusion got more hyped, boosted up. I was just taking my time to take proper decision and was watching market sincerely.

                Suddenly LG G7+ ThinQ launched online and I found my right medicine, but I never purchased a mobile phone online before. So I was hesitating to place an order at Flipkart. And was searching when it would be available in shops (offline). Last time I took my phone from 'Limton', Kolkata. Finally, I placed the order at flipkart, taking the name of the God, as I have heard and seen in youtube that wrong phone is getting delivered and like these kinds of frauds. You people won't believe, when I received the material, my heartbeat got faster, after thinking what to see inside! But thanks to Flipkart that I got right material inside with proper packing and it was sealed perfectly. Now I can say someone, that online purchase is safe. Though I had faith on Amazon since long but never ordered any expensive material at Flipkart before.

                You will get full specification and review from the experts, so am not going to discuss those parts. As the build quality is superb, you can say the best in class, I decided and finalized G7+ for me. I never judge a phone on its RAM and other specification like megapixels, cores etc. but I always check processor’s make/brand and its clock speed. Camera is superior when glass lens is used with superior sensor. So don’t go on megapixels. LG G4 camera quality is superb so I know G7 won’t disappoint me.

                Apple processor is the best in market but it is very expensive. And the older version is of no use, keep all these in mind, I opted for LG G7+ ThinQ. I placed the order on 10th, order shipped on 12th and I received on 14th August, 2018. Last two days am using this phone and am happy. One thing I would like to mention, I found RAM management is poor in LG G4 (2.4 GB occupied in 2.8 GB). In G7 it was 2.8 GB on 10th and today I found 3.8 GB got occupied.

                Overall am happy with this phone (G7+ ThinQ) and I know very soon it will capture the market.
                Thank you

                  I've been a LG fan boy for a long time, but they seriously need to use more recent and bigger camera sensor for their main camera...I still having v20 and the g6, v30, g7 not upgrade for me in terms of camera...If V40 use small sensor again, I will move on to another brand smartphone....

                                I have a LG G6+ for just about 1 year, all was great until 2 weeks back the phone started prompting me about not recognising the SIM card which led me to believe that the SIM was failing somehow and ordered a replacement SIM. It only took me to check the physical integrity of the SIM when I realised that the SIM tray got broken on 2 parts inside the phone and they are stuck inside, and obviously the phone is useless so it needs repairing. Looking closer and carefully the construction of the SIM tray I realised how flimsy and badly built this piece is. It seems that is made from the cheapest plastic available. This is a dual SIM phone, so I'm using the second SIM slot to lodge a Mini SD memory expansion and I know recall that when inserting the SIM and SD card for the very first time, it looked that the SIM and card fit rather tights within the tray, perhaps adding extra pressure to the already weak piece of plastic tray. Such a bad design and poor choice of materials. When I thought that LG nailed it with the G6+. When talking to LG service support the attribute the issue as a damage caused by user. Comparing to another phone such as an iPhone this tray is a fundamental piece that LG got absolutely wrong. This is my official goodbye to LG mobile products after having the G3 and G6+. What an utter disappointment!

                                  I don't understand what is the fu*king problem of LG. Why can't they give 4000 mah batteries for their flagships like Huawei does?

                                    Roman , 04 Jul 2018G7 is the worst flagship you can buy, any current high end ... moreNot exactly the worst. It's more like the phone that is impossible to go wrong with. It has the bits and pieces of other flagship devices with LG's flavouring in there. It has shock resistance, IP68, expandable storage, QHD+, Bluetooth 5, wireless charging, LCD = no burn in, etc.

                                      Anonymous, 13 Jul 2018I do not care if they had time to change production. Import... morePerhaps for the V40. They did state that they wanted to get rid of all the bezels like Samsung said it wanted to. Not to mention, the notch isn't nice looking to us, but to three majority, it's fine for some reason.
