Worse phone I have ever purchased!
Screen shattered so easily even on carpet. Charging port took a crap and I have only had it a year. Phone screen has completely went black before but the phone was still working! Stay away from this phone. They are complete junk. This is my 4th one (due to having isnurance) with my deductible I have paid $800 just in deductibles for replacing this garbage phone also paid for the phone in full.

Great Phone - Love it!!
6 years ago
Love this phone. LG always makes high quality phones. Love the dual screen - I'm really enjoying learning how it works - it is quite intuitive. I can do two things at once which is something we all need. LG is ahead of the game with this. I like that I can charge it on my any of my charging pads inside the dual case - really nice. When the dual screen is closed, you can see date, time and battery amount on the small front screen. The colors are brilliant and sharp on both screens. The dual case is sturdy and well constructed - not flimsy at all! I love having so much real estate. Very happy with it. Really glad that I have chosen this phone/dual case.

Amazing phone with one problem
6 years ago
I always had lg phones and will keep buying them. First off this phone is fantastic, especially for the cost. The main issue is the magnetic charger for the second screen. Mine was not functioning out of the box and after a long talk with att and lg I was told I was out of luck. Att told me to return the entire phone to get it switched out.

To this day, a very good phone performs great for games and other activities, although its cooling is not so good, because it heats up the most at the power button, but the performance has not decreased. Instead of the factory system, I put a LineageOS on it and it is as fast as an iPhone 15 and its power is equal to an iPhone 13. Turning to the display, the plain OLED is much better than the "new" AMOLED displays, so it gives a very nice picture. To this day, this phone is an excellent choice

Hello Suhánszki, we understand how much you’re still enjoying your LG G8X ThinQ, and we appreciate you sharing such a detailed and thoughtful review. It’s impressive to hear how well the phone continues to perform for gaming and everyday use, even after all this time. Your note about the heat near the power button is helpful feedback, and it’s great that performance has remained strong despite that.
It’s also interesting to hear how much you’ve enjoyed using LineageOS — the speed and responsiveness you’re describing really show how capable the hardware still is. And you’re absolutely right about the display: LG’s OLED panels have long been praised for their clarity, color accuracy, and overall viewing experience.
We’re glad to know the G8X remains an excellent choice for you to this day.
If you need further assistance, feel free to email [email protected].

Q: Why doesn't this phone support calling over wifi? I thought all android based phones did but there is no option in the settings menu to tirn ot on.
Anonymous5 years agoOriginally posted on lg.com

- A: The major U.S. carriers all support WiFi calling (AT&T, Sprint (which has since merged with T-Mobile), T-Mobile, and Verizon), but double check if you use another carrier.

The LG G8X ThinQ™ | AT&T, Model # LMG850UM1AAG3BKY does support Wi-Fi Calling.
