This clings on with much stronger magnetism on this phone, making it less of an awkward compromise than the weak magnets for the same component on the LG G8X. G7 ThinQ display boasts its brightest screen, precise colour reproduction, and lower power consumption. Edit: be aware that you will not receive updates like android 11 (if on 10) or security updates on the V600AM. However, the resolution isn’t as crisp as much of the high-end Android competition, and the lack of a 90Hz or 120Hz refresh rate is certainly noticeable if you’ve had any time with the Samsung Galaxy S20 or OnePlus 8. When it comes to real-life performance, we tested the V60 with more than a dozen apps open simultaneously and never experienced any caching or slowdowns.

The phone loads most of its buttons on the left side, including volume up and down buttons and a Google Assistant button, with the lock button on the right side. LG believes content creators will get the best use of this, but it will certainly be a nice addition for anyone shooting video.but the glass back curves gradually into the sides, giving more grip than phones with more abrupt rear-to-side curvature. While LG doesn't commit to multi-year software updates, it’s likely the V60 will at least get an update through the next major iteration. Really want to stick with LG as I've used them since my local O2 guru recommened them years ago, but as neither device was launched in the UK, worried about compatability.

In our battery rundown test, in which we stream HD video over Wi-Fi at full brightness, we got an impressive 11 hours and 58 minutes of rundown time, close to the S20 Ultra's 12 hours and 4 minutes.

There’s even a Wide View feature to extend a growing number of apps (including all of Google’s consumer apps) across both screens. Overall, 1080p recording is acceptable for short videos for social media, but you’ll probably be underwhelmed if you use it for something longer than 10 to 15 seconds. It seems a waste to have a whole button just for opening the assistant – couldn’t think this just have been achieved with a long-press of the power key? But its extra display space is clunkier in execution than foldables out there, leaving it more appealing to niche consumers.There’s a sizeable gap between the V60’s screen and the Dual Screen, and they’re separate screens, each of which can display one app at a time.
