lg g7

LG Mobile is in a rut. Over the last two and a half years, its smartphone division has posted losses totaling over $1.5 billion, and a big reason for the company’s struggles has been poor sales of its flagship phones. When you look back to 2016, the LG G5 was doomed from the start. It had a bland design and a half-baked add-on system that required people to turn off the phone and take out the battery in order to switch out mods. And then in 2017, LG released the G6, which was much less offensive, but lacked in features and style when compared to competitors like the Galaxy S8.

But now, LG is trying to turn things around with the new G7 ThinQ, which retains the nifty advanced video features that debuted LG V30 last fall, while also adding on a whole host a fancy new tricks. But the question remains: Is all this enough to make the phone a viable competitor to slick devices from the likes of Samsung and Google?
Like it’s predecessor, the G7 sports IP-68 water resistance that should protect it from a of casual dip, and a glass sandwich design that’s become so ubiqitous among premium handsets. Where LG has put extra work in is on the LG’s components such as its speaker and display. (Yes, it has a notch. And no, it’s not a big deal.) LG claims the G7's extra-wide 6.1 QHD LCD screen can reach a fantastically bright 1000 nits, which should be more than enough for easy outdoor viewing. Though I must say, when I compared a G7 preview unit against a Galaxy S9+, with both phones set to auto brightness on max, the S9's display appeared noticeably more luminous.

The G7's dual 16-MP rear cams also have a pixel binning feature, which people might have heard about before on phones like HTC One M7 (which came out in 2013!), when it was better known as UltraPixel tech. It’s a technique where the phone combines nearby photo pixels into one big pixel, which gives the camera increased light-sensitivity so that it can pump out brighter, less grainy photos, in exchange for cutting overall resolution down to 4-MP instead of 16-MP. Not the most original ideas, but they’re sure to be useful every once and a while

Finally, as you’d expect the G7 has decent, but not exemplary specs, which include a Snapdragon 845 processor, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, a microSD card slot, a 3,000 mAh battery, and wireless charging.
