LG G8X Review! I like this phone a lot. LG has done an amazing job of straddling their usual premium phone strategy, while also competing in a space closer to OnePlus for pricing. Unique features, great performance, excellent battery. There aren't many weaknesses here. Let's dig in! LG G8X REVIEW IS GO!

Regardless of what bigger tech youtubers try to persuade, I think LG did good this year from the G8, V50, and the G8X

Main issue, it was a ROUGH year for LG's distribution.

Best review of this unit yet! It checked every box I wanted in a phone since I can't get any good HTC phones on Sprint anymore.

I'm also annoyed by those knock off "dual screen attachments" that show up on social media feeds claiming they can go to any phone. Scammers.

I'm pretty new to your channel and I can't even express how satisfying it is to watch your recent tech videos. What a breathe of fresh air. It has become nauseating to watch video after video of a single product and hear nothing but regurgitating of the same exact info and specs almost verbatim to the last "review". We are seeing less and less constructive and actual useful information for the possible would-be consumer about using the products and instead we're fed the same hive mind bullshit and reading of spec sheets. This is very refreshing in the current state of tech reviews. Keep doing what you're doing.

I seriously consider to buying the G8X but here in Greece where I live LG had stopped to bring her smartphones official since almost 4 years.. And now the only way to buy LG phones straight from Greece is by resellers..and costs 900€ bundled with second screen which is very pricey for me..so I decided to buy LG V40 new for 357 euros which I have been wanting since it was announced and waiting for the G8X to drop it's price.

Still on my V20, love the phone. And I'm between this or a V40/50. I'm really gonna miss the IR. And still work great, only problem been that the second battery bloated so much it pooed the screen out on one side. Tho the screen is undamaged. So it just have some tape between the screen protector and the phone, making sure if it pops the other side screen doesn't fall.

I've had LGs and Samsung's. My Samsung's have always crapped out quick. Battery would die quickly over time, everything would run slower faster, and would just drop calls and not send texts, etc. LGs have always been sturdy, last long, and stay fast. I've had this fiesta for over 2.5 years and it still runs fast and gives me no problems. Battery is just now slimming down, but still after using KZfaq and Facebook for hours, I'll go to bed with 30% battery. Granted my brightness is only 35%, but that's a battery drain the higher it is. Overall, I love and trust LG. I'm scared to go back to a Samsung. Lg has always been good to me, from the flip phones, to EnV, to cheaper end smart phones. LG is highly underrated!! Thanks Juan, I think I may pick this up in a few months for an upgrade.

That's tough. I think the V50 is the better standalone phone, but the dual screen on the G8X is definitely nicer. It kind of depends on how you THINK you'll use the phone standalone and with dual displays, but I'd personally lean a little more towards the V50.

1:01 Awww I remembered my LG Vu. I actually liked the 4:3 phone. That was one of the phones that reviewers also panned to obscurity because it did not fit in with the cool phones.

LG vu would've been a big success if it supported tablet low DPI scaling LG did successfully pioneering 18:9 (kf700 g6) and 21:9 (bl40 gw990)

I LUSTED after this phone. Got the chance to pick one up for cheap, and I had to grab it, even though it's a locked Verizon model.

@techiedreyn3621 4 жыл бұрын

Harys Viewty yeah, plus the stylus is not stowed within the phone like the note2. But still, that phone was not bad. Just wasn’t cool enough for the reviewers.

I use a tempered glass on the main phone side and it does not bind with the second screen when it's closed.

which phone would you recommend, lg v50 or g8x ? I plan to use the phone with the dual screen case.

The fact the second screen is detachable is great! You might get tired of the bulk/novelty and at $700 it’s still a good value regular phone. While the older attempts kept you locked in.

Just got my lg g8x from sprint. My one complaint is that sprint doesn't include the second screen at purchase. I'm waiting 3-6 weeks for my second screen to be shipped to me. But I'm beyond excited for my second screen to arrive. Great video as always Juan!

Interesting. I had no idea. I thought they all came bundled. Thanks for that heads up!

@@SomeGadgetGuy the second screen is bundled in the sense that i do not pay extra for it. You just don't get second screen at the store. Well at least with sprint.

I just watched 2 of your videos. I subscribed while watching the first one. I've never seen anyone with a review style like yours. You're informative, entertaining, unbiased & intelligent. I have fun watching your videos, & I actually learn something! You talk about everything wrong with other reviewers, so I don't have to tell you about that. Just know I completely agree. I feel like later this year, when it's time for me to buy a new phone, I'll be able to make a much more informed decision because of watching your videos. Thanks for that! 💯😊
