the design is dull otherwise
differences in OLED calibration are difficult to stamp out on the production line
without class-leading hardware or processing
Get too close and the mode refuses to engage
pixel-level crops of 2x and 3x zoomed images look poor
fiddly to use and results in some bizarre bugs
It ends up looking a bit of a jumble
The two screens might appear as a gimmick
you cannot control with the lower screen when in horizontal mode
to see a very regular looking Android smartphone inside
There was no dual screen or anything new

LG G8X ThinQ review: LG G8X ThinQ is a very interesting and extremely capable smartphone that deserves more than a second look. The two screens might appear as a gimmick, but they can grow on you and you can find ways to use these screens well.

Notebookcheck.com reviews the LG G8X ThinQ, a flagship that includes two AMOLED screens that the South Korean company connects via a hinge. This unusual concept has some advantages over other foldable smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy Fold though, on which our review will elaborate. The G8X ThinQ is even a good contender for a gaming smartphone too.
