LG launches LG G8x ThinQ in India: Check out price, specs and more

After introducing the LG G8x ThinQ back at IFA 2019, LG has launched the LG G8 ThinQ successor in India at a starting price of Rs 49,999.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • The LG G8x ThinQ was first launched at IFA 2019.
  • The LG G8x ThinQ costs Rs 49,999 in India.
  • The LG G8x ThinQ will go on sale in India on December 21, 2019.
LG launched the LG G8 ThinQ successor - the LG G8x ThinQ - at IFA 2019 in September this year. Now, nearly three-and-a-half months later, the company has launched the phone in India. The LG G8x ThinQ costs Rs 49,999 in India and it will be available for sale in the country starting Saturday, December 21, 2019.
Before we talk about the specs, let me give you a brief background about the phone. The LG G8x ThinQ succeedes the LG G8 ThinQ and the LG G8s ThinQ that was launched in India back in October. Although it is a G-series smartphone, it resembles the LG V50 ThinQ more in terms of the design owing to its dual-screen design. In case you aren't sure, it comes with two screens that are attached using hinges. The good news is that if you get bored of the second screen, you can remove it easily while continuing the G8x ThinQ as a regular smartphone.
Now let's talk about the specifications.

LG G8x ThinQ specs

The LG G8x ThinQ comes with a 6.4-inch FHD plus OLED FullVision with a resolution of 2340 x 1080 pixels. The main device is attached to a second screen with a similar resolution and a 2.1-inch mono display in the front that displays information such as date, time and battery life and notifcations. The hinged mechanism allows users to use the phone at an angle of 360-degrees. LG says that the phone is ideal to be used as a game controller at 120-degree angle, a mini-laptop at 140-degree angle, flat at 180-degree angle and a stand or tent at 270-degree angle among other things. It comes with an in-Display fingerprint sensor and it is protected by IP68 dust and water resistant technology. Like all of LG's flagship phones, it is MIL-STD 810G compliant.

Samsung Galaxy A41 announced with 6.1" OLED, vastly improved triple camera

The Samsung Galaxy A41 was seen in  multiple   leaks  earlier this year and now makes its official debut in Japan. It's a preliminary announcement rather since the Galaxy A41 is only scheduled to hit the shelves in June 2020. The Galaxy A41 brings notable improvements over the  Galaxy A40  starting with the larger 6.1" FHD+ Super AMOLED display. It still has a water waterdrop notch with a 25MP selfie camera, but there's now a fingerprint sensor underneath as opposed to around the back. The main camera setup uses a single vertical roll as opposed to the rectangular plates of most recent A-series phones. It's a major jump forward too, having a 48MP main shooter alongside an 8MP ultrawide snapper and 5MP depth helper. The Helio P65 chipset sits at the helm paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage. The phone is powered by a 3,500mAh battery with support for 15W charging speeds. The A41 also gains IP68 dust and water resistance and will presumably launch with An...

Weekly poll: Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro bring the S865, skimp on zoom - was that a mistake?

The Xiaomi Mi Note 10 was an odd duck but its chipset of choice left many wanting. The new Mi 10 duo is both larger and more powerful than Note and it’s usually the other way around . The Xiaomi mi 10 brings the Snapdragon 865 chipset, the performance of which is a class above the S730G found in the Note phone. It also enables 5G connectivity, which is becoming increasingly important as carriers have already covered major metropolitan areas around the world. The upgrade to UFS 3.0 storage (from 2.0) will be tangible as well. The screen got a major boost - a 6.67” panel, up from 6.39” of the Mi 9 and 6.47” of the Mi Note 10. Better yet, this is the first Mi-series phone to boast a high refresh rate screen – 90Hz (though the Redmi lineup already has a 120Hz phone). Xiaomi equipped the Mi 10 with the 108MP sensor that Samsung designed for it. Thanks to the chipset upgrade, it’s capable of recording 8K video as well as 4K at 60fps. One major downside of the new flagship is ...
