You can also still double click to turn the screen on or off, which is always handy. We liked the old-style rear power button, but the new separate one is definitely better, largely because it means you can double press it to quickly open the camera. It’s the first time in a while that LG has added a standalone power button to its phones it was previously embedded in the fingerprint sensor on the back. The G7 has a power button on the right side of the phone. It’s a silly name that will likely only confuse customers. If you see LG appliances with the ThinQ branding - like a washing machine - it means you can easily connect them to the G7 ThinQ or V30S ThinQ and control them right from the phone’s notification drawer. Speaking of ThinQ - what does it mean? It’s LG’s artificially-intelligent platform that connects a host of its products together.
You can’t make it go away, but you can “hide” it by adding black bars around it, or even a rainbow-like effect, and you can also remove the rounded corners on the screen if you’re not a fan. If you really hate the notch, there are many ways to customize how it looks in the phone’s settings. Would we prefer a notch-less look? Absolutely, but we haven’t found its presence distracting. Having used several phones with notches, including the Essential Phone, iPhone X, and Huawei P20 Pro, we don’t have many qualms about it here on the G7. It’s the little cutout at the top of the screen, housing the front-facing camera and earpiece. Let’s get the obvious out of the way: Yes, the G7 ThinQ has a notch. Updated on July 30: We’ve changed our recommendation after seeing price drops on the LG G7 ThinQ. At the lower price, we’re happy to recommend this phone, but at $750, we think you should expect more. The G7 ThinQ costs $750, but we’re starting to see some carriers and retailers knock the price down to around $650.
It lacks a strong visual identity, the unique features it has aren’t compelling reasons to buy the phone, and the camera falls short of the incredibly strong competition. LG’s latest smartphone - the G7 ThinQ - comes very close to being a great phone. It packs high-end specifications, a modern design, and good battery life.
