The LG G8 ThinQ has dual rear cameras, a headphone jack and 3D face mapping. So does this phone have what it takes to go against Samsung?
LG’s flagship phone just can’t catch a break:

If it has the quad dac agian 850 is a great price (for me)
Why these reviews never do proper research is beyond unprofessional. Before you throw out pricing ranges why not acknowledge that T Mobile sells this phone for almost $600! That’s actually a fantastic value. All they keep saying is the Samsung is cheaper and you get more etc. Well LG is WAY cheaper on T Mobile and Samsung doesn’t have a quad dac or a 2k display resolution on the S10e. Do your research people before you try to educate the general public. Some of us know more than you do about phones and technology and it makes you look stupid. Ugh
I have the Samsung S10 and don’t like the unreliable in-screen fingerprint sensor nor the face unlock that can be tricked with a pic and can’t be used in the dark. In this regard, the G8 beats the S10.
Why even do this review? Poor
Nobody can beat low prices of lg after a period of 6 months after their launch
Good Morning 🌞, Lynn La 🙂.
Don’t care for what seems to call for an “Extreme” learning curve, (air gestures),.…So No, wouldn’t purchase it 😏.
Always Appreciate CNET Videos 🤗.
Thank You,

LG just has not realize that they need to be a price competitor not a features competitor. Their marketing is not done the job of putting them in the top tier. They need to be $200 cheaper than the Samsung options at least. I love the LG phones personally but I see their disadvantage in the market. I always wait and buy a 6‑month old version of their latest phones and become very happy for half the price of retail
Another biased reviewer… she just reviewed the phone in 3:15 minutes ‑_-” want a real review about this phone ? go to JUAN BAGNELL of BENS GADGET and get real informed how the phone performs.
Last time i checked pretty lady Samsung phone are some of the highest in cost. And, the S10 definitely cost more then the G8
LG isn’t an easy sell. I mean years have passed and yet it’s always the same thing. They don’t have as much appeal for the money. For what people want to do with their phones I can barely ever recommend this. Even if they want a cheaper phone I still have inventory of phones that do better for close to half. The main people I sell to are lg diehards, people wanting a decent camera that has a lot of pop(saturation), and people who are familiar with iPhones (6 and below) and want a new experience that still is familiar. Not a bad phone, just not much appeal. I mean the iPhone is $1000 because you can use it for everything, same with the $1000 Samsung. You can’t just raise prices and mediocre and still have an issue with running smooth after a year..
Come on cnet the phone is selling for 600 at t mobile and 649 at Best Buy.
Look up your stats before making a review.
Sounds kind of like a hit piece.
I only get weird lux until Samsung comes out next year with the same type of features
Are you kidding me?! This isn’t a review. It’s a feature overview. 🤦♂️
wtf she lost weight
Hey CNEY. Why call LG “a follower, not a leader” when 1)they where the first company to use ultra wide angle lens which almost everyone is now using, 2) they provide an excellent dac, which no other company uses yet 3) they don’t join the bandwagon of removing the headphone. Your review is obviously BIAS AND UNFAIR.
This phone is $610 on tmobile. Cant beat g8 for the price!!!!!!
You all do no justice for lg the g8 has a speaker that comes from behind the screen almost like bone conduction its 620 on tmobile cheaper than an s10e boombox speaker I mean at least say its a good phone, don’t completely drop its wings
I got it today for free
LG is way better than this. But their lack of effort and change is apparent
My sprint preorder at best buy is getting me the phone for about $320 so for me its a much better deal than the s10 let alone the s10e.
Itll be here next week so really excited to upgrade from my note 4 ive been rocking since it launch about 5 years ago.
It smokes the s10 in battery life
quad dac. boobox speaker. weird looking hand gestures function. 3D face reconition on ANDRIOD. manual camera controls. tell me which other phone has all these?
“Being objectively great isn’t good enough” now such a quote just puts this review into a trash bin because what a hell is that suppose to mean?? 😁
dont understand why you youtubers continue to grade the phone on the same scale as the s10e and one plus these phones are not the same the g8 is superior in every way over these cheap offerings from one plus and samsung, those phones dont have the same offering as the g8, g8 has qhd + display as found on phones like the s10 and s10 plus not the s10e, s10e and one plus have 1080p display, lg ploed display is superior to that of the s10e and one plus, higher pixel count then whats found on the s10 and s10 plus, etc, etc, i can go on and on and on not to mention the g8 has iphone face id and great finger print scanner best of both worlds(you cant say that about the iphone or the s10).. folks tune in to get real reviews from you guys not slanted ones and its disgusting and hard to watch these videos cause i know they are slanted…
Was I the only one getting frustrated watching her set up the face recognition?
Len lyall nice name I want it if I can get it behind a bills trying to pay my bills
Hand 🖐️ I D looks creepy
Fly like a G8 ThinQ.…see what i did there? nevermind. it’ Lynn Laaaaaaaa. Lol
People say LG phones are crappy
But I love LG
Never owned any LG phones but I love LG for unknown reasons.
LG phones absolutely suck they are the worst phones you can possibly get except for maybe like Kyocera…
Look at that sucky notch Haha
Hi, you must have to change the tittle… Every other OEM is copying one another…Who is the first one no body knows…I really don’t like Samsung as gradually after 6 to 7 months they are heating up too much with heavy usage…
Yes that’s why Samsung now has wide angle lense. And they put a finger print sensor on the back of s8 and s9 because Lg was a follower. 😂
Came here just to thumbs down this bias review! I’m an iPhone X owner!
You are one beautiful lady 🌹
