Design
LG has released its latest flagship in the G series, the G7 ThinQ, boasting the most advanced processor and improvements to sound, screen and AI. The new device is home to LG's brightest screen to date, providing around 1,000 nits of brightness, compared to the average of 500 or 600. The 6.1" display has been taken up a notch from the previous G6's 5.7" screen for mega-sized viewing. Wrapped in a waterproof body, the G7 ThinQ provides both a premium-looking design and durability. On the left of the device, a dedicated button for Google Assistant can be found. The G7 ThinQ will be available in raspberry rose alongside three new colours: moroccan blue, platinum gray and aurora black. Blue, however, will only be available exclusively with O2.
Features
The LG G7 features the expected specs for today's flagships including the popular USB Type-C fast charging and wireless charging capabilities. Kitted up with the latest version of Android - 8.0 Oreo, you'll be able to take advantage of updates that will improve your productivity and boost power. Most notably however, the camera has the ability to recognise objects that are on the screen with the use of smart artificial intelligence. This in turn ensures you capture a great shot with modes automatically switched based on whatever the subject is (animal, person, etc). The rear camera has also been improved at 8MP, as has the chipset. The G7 is launching with the newest Qualcomm chipset, the Snapdragon 845 offering a vast improvement in speed and power compared to older models. Finally, LG's latest flagship is equipped with power microphones that feature far field voice recognition, ideal for use alongside the Google assistant button and features one large and powerful 'Boombox' speaker for improved sound.
