LG G8 Thin Q, LG G8s with Hand ID, Air gestures & LG V50 with Dual Screen add-on launched

LG today at the Mobile world congress had its own line of devices and revealed its flagship devices for 2019. To note, this year LG has actually advanced its launch of its flagship G series & V series to take on Samsung Galaxy S10. However, from the device we can confirm its more like an upgrade rather than a refresh of the device with similar design from last year’s device. Let’s check out the details.

LG G8 ThinQ & LG G8s ThinQ details

LG G8 ThinQ follows the G7 design language at both front and the back. The front display is cut at the top with wide notch which houses the Selfie camera and Face Unlock feature. However, you can see the speakers are now embedded under the display itself, thus you won’t have holes or cut-outs for the same. Both G8 ThinQ & G8s ThinQ comes with 3.5mm jack, IP7 rated and USB-C port support fast charging.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 855, 6GB/128GB specs, 4000mAh battery are present in both the phones. However, in screen size, camera and battery there are minor differences between LG G8 ThinQ & LG G8s ThinQ. LG G8 comes with 6.1-inch OLED notched display with Quad HD+ resolution, 12MP+12MP+16MP Triple camera & 3500mAh battery.  G8s on the other hand has 6.2-inch display, 12MP+12MP+13Mp Selfie Camera and 3550mAh battery.

The major highlights of these new phones are Hand ID unlock and Air Motion feature for air gestures. Hand ID unlock takes the fingerprint unlock to the next level by reading thickness and characteristics of a user’s veins for unlocking with you even touching the phone.

AirMotion feature also offers you air gestures where the phone can be completely operated without even touching the device. For now, the gestures support includes functions such as, answer calls, taking Selfie , reject calls, switch apps, capture screenshots and control volume.
