Our quick take

LG G8X ThinQ Dual Screen - 4.0 / 5

It adds bulk, but not without merit 

  • 159.26 x 75.69 x 8.38mm, 193g (without case) Gorilla Glass front and back Dual Screen case

What does that second screen do?

  • 6.4-inch display, 2340 x 1080 pixels Offers independent app opening  Takes power from phone

Performance and hardware

  • Qualcomm Snapdragon 855, 6GB RAM, 128GB storage + microSD 4,000mAh battery and Quick Charge 4 fast-charging

 

A dual camera experience 

  • Main: 12MP, f/1.8 aperture, 1.4µm pixel size, optical stabilisation (OIS) Wide-angle: 13MP, f/2.4 aperture, 1µm pixel size, OIS Front: 32MP, f/1.9 aperture, 0.8µm pixel size

To recap

An experience that’s comparable to other flagships, with an extra display as a unique feature. It’s not a true folding phone, but it’s far cheaper, and great for multi-tasking. However, It’s just all let down a little by a software experience that should be better.
