The LCD display on the G7 is damn good.
Yes, OLED on G8 have big problem with PWM flickering.
Yes. LEDs give headaches.
Yeaah OLED displays hurt my eyes, LCD is the best for me
The one reason why I will go G7. LEDs burn the eyes easily. @_@
@@ayasinx8797 i bought g7 too for that reason
How many think Screen on G7 is better or looks better overall???
Both of them are 100% DCI-P3 but g8 is better overall because its Oled
@@jaysealenduro5618 it's also got that dark pinkish tint, only advantage OLED has is that of high colour contrast and it's more dynamic, rest the IPS looks more natural.
@@zahed3021 your talking about lg's own panels even lg said oled is better.. But for me i really like lg lcd because they're the best on screen displays im using g6 but if they made oled it will be better lg's oled on g8 is the perfect screen its accurate as an ips quantum lcd when viewing videos but its more vibrant like what most people want but not like samsung amoled its over saturated but g8 oled its not
If you watch in 1080p, the g8 has a noticeably sharper screen.
@@turkishultranationalist i dont think so
Watching from my g8 I love the phone was a nice upgrade from g7, nicer screen, better chip, more ram, more Rom and bigger battery but the one thing I hate is why the American version didn't get the 3 camera setup.
The battery life is negligible and the screen is actually pretty bad honestly, it's not as bright and the color accuracy is meh
@@chrisodell6107 I had a g7 for 6 months and between the 3000mah battery and the 4gb ram the phone was mediocre as hell the g8 is what the g7 should have been. Between the new chip and the new screen i'm seeing about 30% longer usage on my g8 and 30% isn't "negligible" maybe on paper 3000mah vs 3500mah seems meh but in real world the oled and the sd 855 make it a night and day difference vs the g7 ability to last.
The british version didn't get ANY cameras!!! for some bizarre reason lg isn't releasing the phone here!! So I've had every "g" phone from the g2 upwards, so much for loyalty eh??
@@chrisodell6107 I agree G7 has the better screen. LG mobile OLEDs suffer from a grainy image quality & black crush/smear. Their high end TV OLEDs are better.
@@Franknpipe idk but the screen on my G8 is miles ahead of my samsung S8. The tint usually on oled is almost non existent on my G8.
Great test LG devices are really under rated
Life's Good. Both are Good phones.
I Can't Stop laughing when you knock the two phones into each other.
Watching on my LG G7. Absolutely love it.
Thanks for the test. I could care less about speed. I just wanted to know if the camera was a huge leap. And it’s not. In my opinion I think the g7 has better low light performance and the g8.
G7 did better with lighting on camera test
The G8 just has better optimization with OLED but it's not better than LCD for battery life that's a proven fact that LCDs consume less power, plus the Snapdragon 855 is more power efficient because of the new 7nm processing power.
oled is more battery efficient for darker colours while lcd is better for lighter colours thats why apple has always used lcd for their iphones' white ui
Great usable side by side review! It was incredibly helpful to see both phones in action side by side as you took both phones though your paces of production and gaming apps as well as camera usage. I agree with you that there is not enough difference between the LG G7 and the LG G8 but in my case I have to replace my G7 and my carrier (t-mobile) is running an excellent sale on the G8's right now (BOGO Free). So, for me it's a great purchase since both my daughter and I need new phones. Well done! I'd love to see more of these types of reviews.
Thanks for the video. I was debating G7 or G8. I think I'll go for the G8. I have a V40 thinq. The low-light videos out on the street actually look better on the G7.
Thanks for this review I currently have G7 thinq had since December last year and was wondering if I should upgrade but now I think,I,shouldn't lol
Lg today it's hard to find at major retailers in Switzerland, after V30 all top devices are really good and with 3D face unlock ....battery and updates are the possible issues...
yeah LG is dying here in USA too
I have a G8 ThinQ. The audio on recorded video sounds as if the set is underwater. Some would describe it as tinny, but this audio is different in that it adds a wobbly unsettling noise like a sound effect from a horror movie. The only way to fix this is to use Open Camera instead of the built-in camera app. In Open Camera, go to Settings > Video settings > Audio source > Unprocessed. Changing this will make audio sound natural. Using Open Camera may not be a fix because you're sacrificing all the features of LG's app. I've used many iPhones in the past, and none had this problem so far. I hope LG is reading this.
G7 still banging.
At last bro the video I've been waiting for.
You should do Galaxy S9 vs LG G8 next
Watching on my g7
Way underated phone....upgraded from a G5....another underated phone.. Best both unlocked...so their mine to keep..which I do....Freakin Merto now charges for switching phone...with Your own sim card....Maybe time to move on to another carrier...🖖👌
I got that too. Better white... PURE whites on G7 and better sound. Better than G8... not worth getting the G8 although it wins in other areas.
@@fatold50 If you are lucky enough to live near a MetroPCS store from what I've heard they will waive that fee, or call them and speak with them first. Still it's a pain the butt.
Battery life is ok ?
@@VIP-LION no :(
Did you do something wrong with the G8 audio? Because it sounds terrible, like it was the lowest possible quality settings..
you have to check v40 vs v50 speed once the v50 releases, because for some reason even the g8 seems too old now
0:36 I wouldn't really call it an "upgrade".
When you do the speed tests why don't you sent them on the table? Super annoying with the phones moving around like that.
Absolutely love the g7. This phone is a full blown beast
Same
@@victork9938 not good at all :(
@@ratboy1016 you must have a faulty unit then lol
Thanks for making this video. I found it helpful. You seem like a nice smart guy.
In the video test the G7 was picking up the street noise and the G8 was picking up the background noise
Did you buy your g7 and g8 in Korea? boot logo appear SK telecom logo, that is Korea MNO
it is the Korean variant
yes
The latest update for the g7 made its ram management worse. But the battery life is better. It sucks though having to load each app again.
Yeah, i did notice that when i go to home screen then go to app drawer click the app that i already open, it will open again as from the start
The G8 is the funniest phone on the table).
Also, it seems like there's something wrong with the microphone in G8
Because the sound comes out of the screen
This is the first tri-camera g8 variant I've seen. I totally want one now!
yeah it's the south korean variant
@@PhoneBattles oh only south korean version??!
Nice REAL vid. I have a LG G6 and this is Just the video I wanna see.
If not G8 then which one of the V series should I uograde to? (*uk only please?) 👍
I have a V30 ..verry nice phone with a nice price..everything is good in ❤❤
Screen is not nicer than G8. G7 white is pure compared to G8 and many other phones. I hate that greyish white on most phones. G7 is pure white and very bright even without the boost. Everyone talks about deep blacks but I hate dull white on a phone. I have a Note 9 and prefer the G7 screen over that also and it has a great screen for watching content... AND with better audio too than G8.
Lcd have pure whites
Its an LCD. That is why the whites are better
Why does that matter? Why are whites better on LCD?
我也觉得G7白色更纯净
g7 looks good but quality g8 takes it better battery, sleek look , camera blew that horrible night vision did you not see the comparison?? and that g8 was so fast ive never seen a phone that fast i say g8 all the way im gettibg that phone fasho!!
The G7 speaker is causing so much vibration the G8 is actually vibrating away. That's some power.
2 days sgo. V50 2 screen phone launched in Korea. Unexpectly, getting good ratting.
Lg g7 is the best phone i ever used
☝😎
Where did you get the Korean G8?
Great review 👍
Good review i really do like your speed tests hands down
Where tests vs LG G2?:)
My cousin has modded the G2 so much that even with half the specs he does not want to give it up haha. G2 FTW
I tried the same tests as you did for chrome with my G7, same websites and got faster results did u clean ur G7 using the smart cleaning app before testing? Was at 20% signal strength for my Wi-Fi.
G8 is a worthy upgrade.. But i dont know why your camera video comparison looks fake other video of g8 vs g7 is that g8 is way brighter on lowlight but your comparison results is opposite the g7 is slighty brighter and there's definitely wrong in there and you don't have photos too
I was surprised myself, but G7 has super bright mode which G8 doesn't. in my opinion G7 is too bright while G8 is too dark. not sure if it is just my phone. regardless, I still think G8 does a better job overall and handles the bright lights better
Does the G7 allow you to project your phone onto a screen/monitor/TV?
Yes
@@MrJrod899 the most beautiful projector phone I've ever used.
Ram management on the g7 sucks unfortunately
Good review sir
GREAT Video! Thanks.
Lo que pasa en "Apps & Games" es qué el no cierra el multitarea y el G8 tiene mas RAM entonces no se tarda en abrirlas
The G8 has an amazing nighttime camera.
I have the LG G7 One which is better?
G7 One is using Snapdragon 835, G7 ThinQ is Snapdragon 845. In terms of hardware, the G7 ThinQ is better. In terms of software, the G7 One is better because using Android One with faster upgrades.
Awesome review🍒
Good review Right now with the 7 price drop it looks more in my budget but the 8 is the latest and gr8est
On a lot of of the app tests it looked like the G7 was forced to load them from memory, while the G8 still had them in RAM. Not a fair test.
Is 6.1 diagonally, but is not wide.
The LG V30 has a bigger screen, although in paper the G8 says is bigger, not true
Pointless to say is a 30" screen etc but is two inches wide, same deal, feels to bar like the shell.
Good video turns great when I realize im watching an Astorian. Hello neighbor lol.
why is LG slipping? (All the videos)
ghosts
im crying watching the g8 rolling across the table XD
I might be going LG for my next phone. My Nexus 5X has been great and I've owned LG's before. Plus I don't like in-screen fingerprint scanners, don't like Active Edge and not plopping down over a grand for a SG Note 10+ with only a 60 Hz refresh rate especially when the SG 11 is right around the corner.
LG G8 vs Huawei P30
7:39 What's that idiotic part of the movie? Phone sound test, but the music in the video is in the background
lg is trying to work harder but the market is tough
Lg always in FRONT on the TV market, but mid-tier on the mobile-market... "Why?" Is the question?
Definitely agree LG as a company is No#1 pertaining to TVs also in South Korea it out sales samsung galaxy phones research it yourself.
its like in south korea but not here in Pakistan its like Huawei and samsung are in the top and especially Xiaomi
The display on G8 thinQ is Awesome
ur telling me in 2 hour of youtube it only drained 13 percent...thats crazyyy
How's is there 3 cameras i watched another video and there was only dual camera
this is the korean variant which has 3. most regions only get 2
@@PhoneBattles And if you do get an import they are going for over $1,000. Honestly don't think it's worth it at that price. Also add into it no warranty. I even registered my TMO it on LG's website. And T-MOBILE knows I have it because it shows on my profile. While I usually don't buy carrier phones, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a stolen product being re-sold. The vendor had good reviews, and did a follow up email to make sure I was happy.
thx 4 video! what about throttling?
I think the video test part is opposite or maybe some technical issues when editing or uploading your video cause g8 mic doesn't sound like there's a water inside the mic
Does the LG G8 have an IR blaster
G8 sounds amazing.
G7 even better.
@@3dkiller wrong cause g7 is slighty louder but overall quality is better on g8 and it has stereo sound too and because of that dts x can be enbaled externally
Bora Siman the g7 being abit more louder is good tho
@@Hiitsyoboihunu yeah its slighty louder but g8 has more better balance that's why they make it not so loud as g7 for a better sound quality.
Is g8 smaller then g7
The facial recognition on the G8 works flawlessly even in the dark
I haven't had a very good experience with it, it's too inconsistent for me
It's thanks to the ToF sensor, amazing
Is the G7 running Pie? BTW these stupid "benchmarks" are doing nothing more than noting the eMMC storage performance differences and that would be because the G7 has 64GB whilst the G8 has 128GB. Larger SSD = Faster/greater throughput.
lg g8 no longer has the boombox speaker?
It still has it.
@@DanielleVoiculescu maybe it's my fu..... Italian version of not having it ...
How do you get fortnite
G8 had darker video at night, but had better stability.
ill be getting the pixel 3a for dad. Was considering the G8 for him since its cheapo on tmo but then tmo's ridiculous new trade in offer with the pixel 1 ($400 billing credits) to pixel 3a lol
great choice! just got the phone and I'm impressed
I have a 3a coming in for my Fi line, using a Moto z3, which I got for like almost nothing between selling a few older devices and credits from BB. I didn't order the XL version because all of my phones are large, wanted something smaller for a change up. I did do one of those TMO scheme's, needed another line, her ip7 was starting to fail (not interested in phoneOS arguments). Basically she traded in a broken ip7, she got the 10Xr I paid like $40 extra to up her to 256gb, they had one left in red which is the color she wanted. In my case it works out, she had it since last fall.
Bought my 3a through Fi, should come sometime this weekend. Not in a rush. I did have like $30 in equipment credit do to some logistical problem with not being able to receive incoming calls.. So basically it paid the sale tax, and get $100 credit towards my Fi line, which means free service for 4 months. I bought my G8 brand new locked to T-Mobile for $500 which included a Speck case, which seems to go for about $26. on Amazon but using a Spigen Tough Armor which I use on most of my phones. Sadly Spigen doesn't have their full line of cases for the G8. If you can snag a G8 for $500, I would get that over the 3a. And nice birthday present either way.
I'd get an LG phone over a pixel ANYDAY... no learning curve or knowledge of tech needed. Wide angle is easy to use.
Best bang for your buck EVERYWHERE!
Should i buy lg g7 or samsung galaxy s8 plus?
Wait another 3 months & LG G8 price will drop to about $500 💵 off contract or purchase on B&H website bottom line it's your decision.
Pls tell, how many RAM in G7 on this video? I guess it's have just 4Gb RAM and with 6Gb it will mutch better!
correct, it's 4GB
G8 is better overall, but the 7 does a lot right. I wouldn’t upgrade from a 7 Buying new 8... unless 7 was a great deal.
Still in love with my G6 best built, but my next will be other brand, but the g6 will be the backup
To bad the G6 battery life is bad.
Good Test Bro!, But WTF Min: 2:53 jajajajaja guy in problems
lol, yeah it's a meme app
Got my G7 few days ago. Bought it like brand new second hand for only 270€, sadly G8 amd V40/V50 not coming in scandinavia.. If someone sell there G8 here in sweden, i'll buy it. Waiting few months tho for cheaper price ;}
G7 is better.
@@KR-nm6wm for the price yes, so when G8 drop that price as low as G7. G8 wins!
@@FranciscoGuevarra Exactly and at $500 delivered to my home with a US warranty from LG and T-Mobile I jumped on it. Most people want unlocked, most people want the red color. Since I use that carrier, prefer black and case my phones it didn't make a difference to me, in about a month, my carrier will unlock it when I put in the request.
On the lg g5 love the interchangeable battery feature which I personally think should of been kept on their new models. One of their best feature
Hangisinin sesi daha yüksek ben anlayamadım buradan anlaşılmıyor sen söylermisin pohone battles lütfen
Bana geri bildirim olarak yazarsan memnun olurum
Watching the vídeo again i must say, the colors have more contrast on g8
Why does the g8 slide around like that on the cpu benchmark test?
Slicker finish on the back of thr phone. Phone is rather slippery without a case.
I Have LG G7 ThinQ ✅
What is the best sound??
External speaker I think the G7 wins
I have the LG G5 at the moment.
Should I buy the G7 or wait for the G8 when it comes price down?
I have the G5 as well, and I'm also considering a new phone. I will probably wait for the G8 prices to drop. I suggest you do the same.
Isn't g8 out? I saw it in the store (US). Btw I'm in the same situation, have a G5 and want to upgrade since my fingerprint reader stopped working.
@@m1225753 In Europe (Romania) is not for sale. I hope arrive in next 2-3 months...
LG G7 launch price 760$ , and after few months , the price is 360$ :))
@@Baleent7 Odd thing here in the US, some vendors were selling them for $600 /700 or so. Might have been an intro price because I see these same vendors like B&H and Best Buy are charging like $800 for an unlocked model. BTW B&H ships internationally.
We are lucky here in Canada, G8 is on sale at a good discount.
G7 plus 17000 and G8 is 40000 is there any big difference in both mobile phones performance??????
Plz somone reply
g7 plus would be a much better value for your money. given those prices I'd say G7 plus.
@@PhoneBattles thank you for your suggestion
They are properly rated for what they deserve. No pie update on last year flagship until now. Is that a joke? Even LG don't take their smartphones seriously, how could they expect it to customers then?
I’m not really convinced by lg because my lg g3 died after 2 years because of the horrible battery and then I got a lg g4 and it died also after 2 years...
I had an LG G4 which died after 2 years, and TMobile replaced it with another G4. The replacement died after 2 years for the same reason. I gave LG another chance and they really fixed their phones! I got my G6 3 years ago and it still works perfectly.
Their Hardware problem like bootloop has fixed since the G6
I have both phones, 2 lines, use them every day, still like the G7 way more... Especially the speaker on the G7...
why ?
I had the G7 and now have the G8.. I agree,the G7's external speaker seems to be louder. That thing was nice and loud . The G8 seems to be more tame.
could you tell me which regions have the triple room? and if you know who also sells in Italy pls
The italian version is very nerfed
Why nerfed? It is not.
@@elijak8263 it is really excellent also for the price it has but I would prefer the normal version with the quad dac, sound oled and better performing cameras
@@ChopGamers Camera differences are marginal. I prefer the G8s because it has a better battery performance as it is a FHD screen.
your g7 is updated is to 9.0 or not???
Don't think so as full screen in yt goes over the notch
Ill wait for next year
G7的屏幕更好，oled采用PWM调光容易视力疲劳
Just activated one I found a few months ago.
Why your g8 have 3 cameras???
it's the south korean variant, USA version has 2. no other changes besides that.
Interesting that while the G7 was louder it was probably due to being slightly tinny, the G8 had better depth of sound.
For the people who're telling that lg is underrated, it's all because of their carelessness.
I own g7+ and still waiting to get Volte(airtel) update😕😕
Did you re-edit this?
unfortunately I got a copyright claim on a song that is supposed to be free, so I had to :(
@@PhoneBattles dang, yeah they say not to use ncs music from youtube anymore. It's ok just dang they messed up a good vid sorta.
Thinking of upgrading my G5. My main focus is the camera.
If i can get G7 for only $450 cad, should I go with G7 or G8? Thanks!
depends on the price of G8, but G8 is not a huge improvement over G7
Why G8 have 3 camera's? Don't two?!
mine is korean version which has 3
