      Not surprisingly, the high price segment on average works 7 years from the date of purchase. Even if used from 2020, it is a better choice than a budget one for the same price (low impressions for 3 years, or high?)

    Level up your multitasking with the LG G8X ThinQ! The double screens are like magic for getting things done - juggling social media and emails is a breeze. Plus, the hidden camera means a full, notch-free display for enjoying videos. The battery life is a champ too, lasting all day long. The only thing missing? A grip that matches its power! To solve that, I added a textured screen and body film with a cool, matte finish from gadgetshieldz. Now it feels more secure in my hand, fingerprints disappear like ghosts, and the whole phone is shielded from scratches and bumps without any extra weight! #LGG8XThinQMaster #UpgradeYourGrip ✨

    • @TheOneanjel
      @TheOneanjel Месяц назад

      Can you explain the double screens to me? I just bought a refurbished G8X thinq off eBay and I was expecting it to have the dual screen but it just looks like the one in this video. I thought they all had the dual screen? Is that something you buy separately or is that a different model?

  • @TheOneanjel
    @TheOneanjel Месяц назад

    Your video is very professional and informative. Thank you. I thought my G7 ThinQ was going belly up so I just purchased a G8X refurbished at a good price because it sounded like a great phone. I assumed it came with the dual screen but I see yours didn't either. Mine also didn't. Is that sold separately? My research indicates it was sent in the box when it was originally sold by LG. Also I see there's no fingerprint sensor - I'm assuming this relies on facial recognition. I haven't set mine up yet. After finding out that my battery was okay and my G7 but the charging port was bad I just simply bought a wireless charger and that has been getting me by. I'm going to set up my G8X soon, just trying to learn everything I can about it first.

    • @PulsarTECH
      @PulsarTECH  Месяц назад +2

      Hi, thanks for your feedback. There are different model, some have a dual screen and some don't. I believe you can also purchase them separately in theory. It is a great phone still.

    • @PulsarTECH
      @PulsarTECH  3 месяца назад +1

      Hi, if you want to use it in Canada, it needs to be unlocked. SO before getting one, make sure it is not locked for a certain carrier in the US or they can give you an unlock code. Hope this helps.

    Its worth its cost just for Dac. A great alternative to a portable dac or dap. Why get btr5 when you can get a proper flagship with SD, ldac, eq, android 12 etc...
    Same goes for a lot of LG phones. V60, g8, g7, v40, v50....even going back to v35 or g6

    The quickcharging isn't the best but I'm actually surprised to see that some of the latest flagships phones still come equipped with an 18W quick charge. So this phone isn't that outdated.
