LG G8X ThinQ, LG Dual Screen Available In U.S. Beginning Nov. 1

LG Electronics announced the U.S. availability of LG G8X ThinQ and LG Dual Screen, both unveiled in September at IFA 2019 in Berlin.

LG G8X ThinQ Dual Screen lets users do more simultaneously - text a friend while watching a video, update fantasy football while researching stats, share and compare while online shopping, or write an email while referencing a presentation.

LG Game Pad is a dual screen experience designed for mobile gaming. It gives gamers a complete view of a game on one screen and a full controller on the other, giving the options to choose from multiple virtual controllers or build a custom layout to match specific game play needs and styles. LG Game Pad mimics touch input on the main display, making it compatible with most games.
The LG Smart Keyboard converts LG G8X ThinQ Dual Screen into a mini-laptop for on-the-go use. The bottom display transforms into a full-screen virtual keyboard.

LG Dual Screen also boasts a cover display, with the essentials like notifications, date, time, and battery life available at a glance. With a 360° Freestop Hinge, LG Dual Screen is able to lock into any angle, making it practical for use as a game controller at 120°, a mini-laptop at 140°, flat at 180°, a stand or tent at 270°, or to take a call flipped back on itself at 360°.

Further differentiating LG G8X ThinQ Dual Screen, LG gives consumers the option to have the power and flexibility of two screens, but the freedom to choose one based on the situation. By detaching LG Dual Screen from LG G8X ThinQ, going minimal is as simple.

LG's newest G-series smartphone features a 6.4-inch OLED Fullvision display, a 32MP front-facing camera, dual rear-facing cameras with photo and video modes, two balanced 1.2W stereo speakers, the first in-display fingerprint sensor on an LG smartphone and a large 4,000mAh battery for all-day power.

The LG G8X ThinQ Dual Screen will be available in the U.S. beginning Nov. 1 at wireless providers and retailers, including Amazon, AT&T and Sprint. Pre-orders begin Friday, Oct. 25 and will vary by wireless provider and retailer.
Pricing for an unlocked, bundled LG G8X ThinQ with LG Dual Screen will start at $699.99. Through LG's wireless partners, and contingent on available promotions and customer eligibility at those partners, a bundled LG G8X ThinQ with LG Dual Screen could be available for around $300.
