Description

The LG G7 ThinQ is a flagship Android phone with a super bright display at its centerpiece. A tall, 6.1-inch LCD panel fills almost all of its front, save for a little cutout at the top where the earpiece and front camera reside. It is powered by the Snapdragon 845, has a cleverly designed loudspeaker, and packs a dual camera at the back. The latter allows for ultra-wide photos to be taken in tight spots, while also enabling portrait mode. AI capabilities enable scene recognition for more impressive photographs.

This device is also known as LG LM-G710EM, LG G7+ ThinQ, LG LM-G710TM, LG LM-G710VM, LG LM-G710ULM

Probably the best Android phone ever made.

Posted: Oct 02, 2024, 11:54 PM

Phone owned for more than a year

Having had the LG G7 for years and looking to "upgrade" in 2024, it's clear that the G7 is better than most phones on the market today. It's a bit more compact than the giant phones today, which have become over-sized in my opinion, yet it has a better screen than literally anything on the market today, until now in 2024 with the highest-end phones like the S24 Ultra.
If LG ever makes phones again, I'm definitely a customer.

Do NOT buy this phone if it is an Unlocked Sprint phone!

Posted: Apr 30, 2020, 1:00 PM

Phone owned for less than a month

I bought this phone that was an unlocked Sprint phone version G710ULM Once this phone has been unlocked, it cannot receive updates. I am stuck with a version of Oreo from September of 2018 and there is no way to update it. I even contacted LG who basically told me there was nothing they could do because it was unlocked and the Sprint software doesn't allow for any type of updates. I even tried manually to update it through LG Bridge. No success. I am sending it back from where I bought it because the Bluetooth functionality is so buggy it basically doesn't work at all without the updates. I decided to buy a NON-LG NON-SPRINT phone. Its a shame because I am sure this is a great phone otherwise, but this puts a bad taste in my mouth with LGs

After a month of using my ear, I enjoy. It would be much better if the battery had longer life. But working with this mobile is very smooth.Also, I could not find the option to turn on the screen while reading
