The LG G8ThinQ continues the tradition of offering consumers a wide range of convenient features around the world, focusing on providing advanced optical and audio capabilities. In addition, the sophisticated and unobtrusive design philosophy, which abandons all minor design elements, gives the LG G8ThinQ an undeniably elegant look. The Crystal Sound OLED (CSO), which uses a smart phone screen as a speaker diaphragm, eliminates the need for a front speaker for a minimalist aesthetic.

LG G8ThinQ is the first smart phone in the world with advanced palm-based authentication, possible through the combination of a ToF Z camera and infrared sensors. LG Hand ID, which is much safer than fingerprint recognition technology, identifies the owners of the device by recognizing the shape of their palm, their thickness and other individual characteristics.

The LG G8ThinQ also stands out for its multimedia performance as the first smartphone in the LG G series with OLED screen technology. The widescreen QHD + FullVision measures 6.1 inches with 564 pixels per inch, providing an incredibly detailed picture, while the artificial intelligence visualization function optimizes color and brightness for different environments, contributing to reduce eye strain.

The high quality sound of LG smart phones is standard and the LG G8ThinQ is no exception. The Boombox speaker is now able to provide stereo playback. Realistic full-screen sound is provided by DTS: X, while the 32-bit Hi-Fi DAC Quad delivers unprecedented sound detail.

The smart phone perfect for the era of 5G

By giving consumers the opportunity to enjoy the full range of features the 5G offers as soon as this service is available, the revolutionary LG V50ThinQ 5G has been carefully designed to deliver a superior user experience.

Being limited to still images, LG has incorporated video depth control at the front and back of the camera to stay focused on moving subjects. The Point Zoom feature allows users to zoom in and out at a specific point without changing position, while Professional Filmer provides precise control of various elements, including high-resolution microphone settings.

LG's first 5G device is powered by the latest Qualcomm® Snapdragon ™ 855 mobile platform and LG's enhanced software to deliver advanced 5G processing power. The phone is also equipped with a 4000 mAh battery, 20% higher than the V40ThinQ, and the new Vapor Chamber heat dissipation system, which is much more efficient than traditional heat pipes for maintaining internal temperature of the device at a low level even for multiple tasks.

With its sleek and elegant design, the LG V50ThinQ 5G is only 8.3 millimeters thick and weighs only 183 grams. To keep a smooth profile with unbroken lines, the rear frame of the new V Series smartphone is perfectly aligned with the back of the phone. All this has been achieved without affecting the durability of the LG V50ThinQ 5G, which continues to meet the MIL-STD 810G standard of the US Army.

In anticipation of the launch of the first 5G phone, LG is collaborating with the top ten telecom operators in countries where 5G services will be launched this year, including the United States, South Korea, Australia and several European countries. .

Dual screen for a more abundant 5G experience

To enhance the user experience and comfort of using the first 5G smartphone, LG has developed the dual screen as an optional accessory of the LG V50ThinQ 5G.
