LG G7 ThinQ Will Launch On The 3rd Of May

The LG G7 ThinQ is one of the most anticipated flagship smartphones of 2018. The company postponed the launch of the LG G7 as the company wanted to rework on their flagship smartphone. The company has now confirmed that the LG G7 ThinQ will be launched on the 3rd of May in New York.

A report claims that the LG G7 ThinQ will be available in Aurora Black, Platinum Grey, Moroccan Blue, Moroccan Blue (Matte), and Raspberry Rose. The availability of these colours will depend on the market.

This will be a first for LG and its G series of flagship devices. Up until 2017, LG unveiled its flagship devices, mainly the G series at Mobile World Congress. However, this time around, the company has tried something new, in order to resuscitate its dwindling smartphone business. The LG G7 ThinQ, apart from retailing with a new moniker, will also have a few striking design changes when compared to its predecessor. One of the most talked about changes is on the front of the smartphone. The LG G7 ThinQ is expected to have an iPhone X style notch which has become one of the most imitated iPhone features so far.

The notch will have an earpiece, front-facing camera, proximity and ambient light sensors. The LG V30 had a mediocre front-facing camera and the G7 ThinQ might have a better front-facing camera with features like Face Unlock. On the back, the smartphone might have a dual camera setup similar to LG V30, with an RGB sensor and a wide-angle sensor. This time, the G7 ThinQ might offer features like slow motion video recording and 4K video recording at 60fps. The smartphone might also come with a virtual voice assistant similar to Siri and Bixby. In fact, the smartphone might have a dedicated physical button to trigger the voice assistant.

The LG V30+ launched in India at a price of Rs 45,000. Similarly, the LG G7 ThinQ is also expected to be priced less than Rs 50,000 to compete against the likes of the OnePlus 6 and the Asus ZenFone 5z.
