LG V50 Thin Q ($1152) joins the list of 5g enabled and 5g supported phones while the 5g is still in infant stage, phone packs a punch in overall performance. This remarkable phone joins the small list of 5g enabled devices that we have.\u00a0Don\u2019t confuse this with other LG\u00a0V\u00a0phone series in market.\u00a0We will review the smartphone under 5 categories namely, Ergonomics (Display & Design), Call & Sound Quality, Hardware, Network & Performance, Cameras & Software followed by a quick verdict.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s begin,<\/strong>
\nErgonomics \u2013\u00a0For most of the design, it\u2019s the typical LG V series design and that continues on this latest flagship also.<\/p>\n

Front side is housed with a\u00a06.4inch OLED display with small notch and minimum bezels.
\nMeasurements \u2013\u00a06.25 by 2.98 by 0.44 inches,\u00a06.46 ounces. (heavier but not difficult to hold for long, good weight balance)
\nBack side is a full glassed case and a camera horizontally placed. A yellow 5g logo glows (when in use), above camera. Below camera is your Fingerprint sensor \u2013 quite fast (might be little difficult for short hands). LG logos at bottom and mid.
\nTop side \u2013\u00a0Bare
\nBottom side \u2013\u00a0Speaker, Headphone Jack & USB-C charging port
\nLeft side \u2013\u00a0Volume Buttons & a convenience button (opens google assistant)
\nRight side \u2013\u00a0Power button
\nDisplay \u2013\u00a019:5:9 Aspect Ratio. Screen Res. At 3120 x 1330, 538 PPI. (Color accuracy is excellent). Brightness \u2013 Good \u2013 335 nits.
\nDurability \u2013\u00a0Front \u2013 Gorilla glass 5, Back \u2013 Gorilla glass \u2013 6.\u00a0\u00a0IP68\u00a0rating for water and dust protection.<\/p>\n

Network, Call & Sound Quality \u2013\u00a0V 50\u2019s 5 G only supports that of Sprint\u2019s Network. It supports LTE bands though (1\/2\/3\/\u2026. \/71).\u00a0It covers all carriers except AT&T. Band 71 provides better and vast coverage in rural areas.
\nCall Quality\u00a0is excellent and crystal clear. Unsure of 5G quality though.
\nWi-Fi \u2013\u00a02.4Ghz, 5.0Ghz bands.
\nNFC \u2013\u00a0Yes
\nBluetooth \u2013 5.0 for wireless tech
\nAudio Quality \u2013 Dual speakers with DTS:X 3D Surround sound. 93dB, loud enough. Clean sound & best in class.<\/p>\n

Hardware & Performance \u2013\u00a0LG packs some pretty decent hardware and hence the performance.
\nProcessor \u2013\u00a0Qualcomm Snapdragon 855
\nRAM \u2013\u00a06GB
\nStorage \u2013 128 GB (103GB available for use)
\nMicro SD slot \u2013 Yes, up to 2TB additional storage.
\nMultitask\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Easy & lag free
\nGaming \u2013\u00a0Pretty Easy (no lags on asphalt 8) \u2013 Also a Game Tools for taking screenshots, disable notifications while game playing.
\nBenchmark tests \u2013\u00a0PCMark 2.0 \u2013 8727 score
\nBattery \u2013\u00a04000mAh , Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 & Wireless charge supported (A day\u2019s power with conservative use)<\/p>\n

Cameras \u2013\u00a0Though not as famous as Pixel or Huawei or Samsung for camera performances, it still stands robust here. In short, it is a solid imaging device.
\nBack camera stats \u2013\u00a0Triple Camera stack, 12 MP lens , f\/1.5 aperture, 12MP telephoto lens with f\/2.4 aperture & a 16MP Super wide angle lend with f\/1.9 aperture & 107 degree field.
\nFront side \u2013\u00a08MP, 5MP (standard and wide angle)

\nLow light photos decent.
\nSoftware \u2013\u00a0Android 9.0, LG UX 8.0.
\nBloatware \u2013\u00a0Present, but can be installed
\nFuture updates \u2013\u00a0Slow but steady. Android Q will not be very soon available.<\/p>\n

Pricing & Verdict\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Though expensive than its competitors due to 5G rollout, we think it\u2019s a great all-rounder phone. Display is sharp, comes with latest android pie and beautiful audio quality is sure a nice signal. Hardware is pretty decent and has never lagged or underperformed in the past models as well. Gaming can be done easily and a nice camera just puts a nice smile over your mouth. It\u2019s definitely a 4+ stars product.<\/p>\n
