The LG G8X ThinQ has a successor in the LG Velvet. The 6.8-inch screen has a tall 20.5:9 aspect ratio. The LG G8X ThinQ and LG Velvet share the same capability to use two screens at once thanks to a dual screen accessory. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor that drives the LG Velvet is starting to show its age. LG has included 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage alongside the processor. This smartphone has a hybrid SIM slot, so expanding storage will require giving up a second SIM card.
The LG Velvet’s primary camera is 48 megapixels, while the ultra-wide-angle camera is 8 megapixels, and the depth sensor is 5 megapixels. It has a 16-megapixel front-facing camera, conveniently located in the “dewdrop notch.” The smartphone’s camera functions admirably, and it can take high-quality shots in a variety of lighting scenarios. The phone’s air is fast to recognise what it’s being pointed to, and the Night mode is helpful for getting more detail in low light. Excellent, and you can get some decent shots with your smartphone in a variety of lighting conditions. The phone’s AI can quickly identify whatever it is pointed at. The Night mode improves the smartphone camera’s performance in low light.
The performance of the smartphone is satisfactory, but it can’t compare to the most cutting-edge models because it uses an older processor. If you like to juggle multiple tasks at once, the dual screen accessory is a must-have. The 4300mAh battery should last for about 24 hours. On the downside, there is no fast charger included with your purchase. Quick Charge 3 is supported, and you can get a compatible charger to use it.
