      As a standalone smartphone, the LG G8X ThinQ is quite conventional. It features a 6.4″ OLED touchscreen, with HDR10 support and Corning Gorilla Glass 6 screen protection

      Another drawback of the G8X’s screen is that it isn’t bright enough, especially under direct sunlight.

      With a frame of 159.3×75.8×8.4mm, the G8X has an 83.3% screen-to-body ratio. Compared to many of its previous releases, the G8X follows similar suite.

      Performance is great overall, with no signs of lag, jitter or animation issues as a result of the additional resources required to power the second screen.

      There are also some nifty options built into the software, which allow you to open specific apps on the second screen whenever the case is opened, to make things easier for you.

      T1he front-facing, or selfie, camera has a 32MP sensor. However, using binning technology (Quad Bayer) to absorb more light for low-light photos, it actually works out to around 8MP resolution. The results aren’t great here, doing just enough to be useful.
