The LG G7 ThinQ, commonly referred to as the LG G7,[1] is an Android smartphone developed by LG Electronics as part of the LG G series. It was officially announced on May 2, 2018, after about a week of official leaks by LG. It is the second product from LG that uses the ThinQ branding.[2] The device serves as the successor to the 2017 LG G6. On June 29, 2018 a software update introduced 4K video recording at 60 FPS.[3]
Specifications
Hardware
The LG G7 ThinQ utilizes a metal chassis with a glass backing, and is IP68-rated for water and dust-resistance. It is available in black, white, and silver-color finishes. The G7 features a 1440p FullVision IPS LCD display, with a diagonal size of 6.1 inches. The display uses a 19:9 aspect ratio that is taller than the 18:9 displays used by the majority of smartphones, such as the Samsung Galaxy S9. The G7 was also designed with slim bezels and a notch, similar to the iPhone X, which LG calls a "second screen." Unlike Apple's implementation of the notch, the notch can be blacked out on the G7.
The G7 utilizes the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 system-on-chip with 4 GB of RAM. It is offered with 64 GB of internal storage, expandable via SD card. It supports wireless charging, and all models will support Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0. All models in all markets will include quad Digital-to-analog converters (DAC) to enhance sound output, unlike the G6, which limited the quad DAC to select Asian markets.
There is a button on the side of the phone similar to Samsung's Bixby button; while it cannot be remapped, it launches Google Assistant when held, rather than a different A.I. Double tapping the button launches Google Lens.
The camera is a dual setup, with a primary lens and wide-angle lens, both are 16 MP. [4]
Software
The LG G7 ThinQ ships with Android 8.0 "Oreo" and LG's UX skin.
LG G7 One
There is a version called the LG G7 One; unlike the G7 ThinQ; it is an Android One phone, so it uses near stock Android 8.1 "Oreo" rather than LG's UX skin. However, it comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 instead of the 845 on the G7 ThinQ. The G7 One also lacks the wide angle lens on the G7 ThinQ, is limited to 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage (though it retains a microSD card slot), and the battery is 3,000mAh, smaller than the G7 ThinQ.[5]
