LG officially unveiled its latest flagship – the G7 ThinQ in China a fortnight ago. The device is yet to go on sale but pre-orders have gone live in Canada and it is a rather interesting one. LG is offering all those who pre-order the flagship smartphone in Canada a 43-inch LG 4K UHD Smart TV.

The offer is only available to those who buy from any of the participating retailers and carriers. The Korean giant shared the list of participating retailers and carriers and the list is quite robust. The promotional activity surrounds the pre-order will begin on May 18 and will end on May 31. That is a whole lot of time for those living in Canada to get their credit cards ready in order to grab a unit.

South Korea’s LG Mobile has announced its latest flagship, the LG G7 ThinQ. The new flagship comes with a bunch of new features, a new design, and a notch.

LG G7 ThinQ Design

The most striking change in the LG G7 ThinQ is the notch in the display. Yes, LG has joined the notch train. This is not news as we already knew this from leaked images and a hands-on video from a few months ago.

Even with the notch, the LG G7 ThinQ has a bit of bezel at the top which makes you question why there is a notch in the first place.

On the rear, LG has switched to a vertical arrangement for the dual cameras. Flanking it on the right is the LED flash and laser focus module, and below is the fingerprint scanner. Sadly, the scanner doesn’t double as a power button anymore.

The power button is now on the right-hand side while the volume buttons are on the left. LG has also added a new button for launching Google Assistant. The button can’t be reprogrammed but it is a quick way to access the assistant.

LG G7 ThinQ Specs

The G7’s display is bigger than that of the G6. It is now 6.1” and with a resolution of 3120 x 1440 (QHD+). As expected, there is a Snapdragon 845 processor powering it and it is paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of expandable storage.

There are dual 16MP cameras on the rear and one takes super-wide-angle shots (107°). The cameras now have AI features similar to those in the LG V30S ThinQ. There is scene recognition which can tell if you are taking the picture of a person, landscape, pet, and more. There is also a Super Bright camera mode for automatic brightness adjustment in low-light conditions. The front camera is an 8MP sensor with portrait mode too.

The LG G7 ThinQ has 32-bit Hi-Fi Quad DAC and a Boombox Speaker feature with an extra boost of bass. There is also DTS Audio for cinema-like audio (7.1-Channel audio to be exact) but you’ll need wired earphones or a speaker to enjoy this feature.

Other features of the LG G7 includes IP68-rating, an audio jack, Android Oreo, and a 3,000mAh battery with support for wireless charging.

LG is currently gearing to launch its upcoming flagship smartphone — LG G7 ThinQ, which is scheduled to get launched in the coming week. Ahead of the launch, the company has revealed information about the phone’s display panel, confirming that the G7 ThinQ will come with LG’s latest LCD technology called Super Bright Display.

The company has further revealed that the smartphone will come with a 6.1-inch QHD+ display with screen resolution of 3120 x 1440 pixels with 19.5:9 aspect ratio. Similar to other flagship devices getting launched this year, the smartphone’s Full View display will come with a notch on top.

In addition to improved brightness, the new LCD panel from the company is said to bring power efficiency improvements. The new Super Bright Display covers 100% of DCI-P3 color space. Along with that, there will be six color modes in the Settings menu – Auto, Eco, Cinema, Sports, Game, and Expert.

The G7 ThinQ will also have a ‘brightness boost’ function which will push the peak brightness to 1,000-nits to help boost outdoor visibility. LG has also said that compared to the phone’s predecessor — LG G6, this one will come with a slimmed down bottom bezel by 50 percent.

Apparently, the LG G7 ThinQ will also come with a second screen on the upper bezel, similar to the one we’ve seen on the LG V20. According to the company, the “new second screen” on the smartphone can be used as a status bar or as a single screen combined with the main screen.

Under the hood, the smartphone is expected to be powered by Qualcomm‘s Snapdragon 845 processor along with 4GB RAM and 64GB of internal storage. It will feature a 16-megapixel dual camera setup at the back and an 8-megapixel front-facing shooter for taking selfies and video calling.

LG has been revealed as planning to launch the LG G7 on May 2. According to the popular Twitter tipster, Evan Blass, LG will unveil the G7 bearing the name LG G7 ThinQ and that has been confirmed. Ahead of the launch, a couple of TPU cases on the G7 have appeared online and along with them comes the opportunity to get yet another sneak preview of the LG flagship before it is officially launched.

The LG G7 protective cases come with an efficient anti-slip design. Eve in the event of a fall, the cases possess the ability to cushion the fall so that the device isn’t damaged. One of two different cases leaked has a clip for holding the smartphone firmly in the pocket and can even be used on the breast pocket. The case also comes with a covering for the display which would protect the screen from breaking if the phone falls and will also keep the screen protected from scratches by sharp objects like keys inside the pocket. The second protective case is obviously for the ladies as it comes in pink. Apart from the pink color, the case is designed with refractive stones all over the back.

Basically, the design is consistent with the previous renders of the G7 which we had seen previously. The device is expected to adopt a notch display design at the front which will house the selfie camera and an LED notification indicator as well as the front speaker. While at the back, there will be a vertically aligned dual rear camera setup and under the camera will sit a fingerprint sensor. The LG G7 ThinQ will feature a 6.1-inch display.

The LG G7 ThinQ has its power button and volume rockers located on the right side but there is also a button on the left which is said to be a dedicated AI button. Thus, LG may likely be playing the AI card as well. We’ll have to wait until the launch to find out what the AI button does but it may be similar to Samsung’s Bixby button. Specs-wise, the LG G7 ThinQ will be arriving with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 mobile platform, 4 GB of RAM and an internal storage of 64 GB. There may likely be a higher memory variant.
