The LG G8 ThinQ was just released in February this year. It is LG’s newest phone. Of course, like any phones, it has it’s own advantages and disadvantages. Let’s talk about it’s advantages first.
The phone’s front facing camera can recognise the veins in your palms to unlock the phone(if you have set a password for the phone), and uses the same camera to respond to your hand gestures. Those hand gestures can be used to adjust the volume of your phone just by twisting your hand or just by waving your palm, you can dismiss your alarm. The LG company put a vibrator behind the OLED display of the phone. It amplifies the sound so you can hear the voice on the other end of the line no matter where your ear is, which is good as you do not need to position your ear to where the speaker is. The phone’s night view, which helps you in taking photos at night as it will look more natural.
Now, let us talk about it’s disadvantages. The phone’s price is far too expensive, costing at $819 according to LG. The LG’s camera’s portrait mode is bad as it can’t seem to tell where the subject ends and the background begins and ends.
In conclucsion, though this phone has it’s own advantages, it is far too expensive compared to other phones like the Oppo R17 so you should consider before buying it.
