LG G7 ThinQ

The saga of this year's LG G7 release was strange. First, a report claimed the company was building a new high-end smartphone from scratch, with the possibility of completely rebranding its G line. Not long after, a device donning the G7 name appeared at a private event, suggesting LG was already done building its next handset. If that wasn't enough, LG then created a thread on Reddit...

LG’s new G7 ThinQ has a truly awful name, but it’s got a good design, terrific-sounding headphone jack, and a camera that opens many creative possibilities. Unfortunately, it’s also way too expensive.

Still a reasonable smartphone that's been surpassed

The LG G7 ThinQ has the firepower to go against its competition, but does it deliver? This is our detailed LG G7 ThinQ review!

LG's new flagship is rarely exciting, but look past that and you'll find a great little phone with an audiovisual focus.

UPDATED: The G7 screen will officially be super-bright...

The LG G7 ThinQ is a solid smartphone, particularly when it comes to its AI-powered camera and booming sound. But there’s not enough here to challenge the best from Samsung or Apple.

With a Snapdragon 845 processor, Boombox speaker, and an AI camera, the LG G7 ThinQ isn't a bad phone by any stretch. But it's not a particularly memorable phone either.
