LG G7 ThinQ appears in leaked photos, notch and all

Pictures of LG's 2018 flagship have leaked, and the boot screen reveals that it will indeed be named the LG G7 ThinQ. The pictures show a notch located on the top of the display, and the phone's model number is LG-G710TM. Said to be undergoing early testing in the states, the handset is expected to be released sometime next month. The inclusion of the ThinQ branding on the phone's boot screen means that the device will have some AI capabilities that are similar to what is available on the LG V30S. 

The latest rumored specs call for the LG G7 ThinQ to be equipped with a 6.1-inch LCD display carrying an 18:9 aspect ratio, and minimal side bezels. Talk is that LG is not using an OLED panel in order to keep the price of the phone down. Under the hood will be the Snapdragon 845 mobile platform, and the phone is said to carry 4GB of RAM and 64GB of native storage. Specs previously rumored include a rear-facing dual camera setup featuring two vertically mounted 16MP sensors, and a 3000mAh battery.

The pictures of the device also reveal a stand-alone button on the left side of the unit. This could very well be a dedicated button that activates some of the AI capabilities that the device is sure to ship with. The AI features should include AI CAM, which analyzes the subject of your picture to set the appropriate shooting mode, and QLens. The latter recognizes certain landmarks, places of interest, foods, celebrities and more.
