Michael please review it... I love LG phones despite most reviewers hating it lol but it depreciates fast so I can afford it lol and there's really good specs.
Please do give this a solid review when it comes out. I have been rocking the similar LG V50 Dual Screen as my daily driver, which I had to order and import from South Korea. Trust me, Michael, as a power user, the second screen will become a godsend for you, and after using it for a week or two, I think you will agree, Samsung should make a product like this for their Note series devices. This mere accessory is a literal game changer from power user paradise. Your attention on this product, as a prominent voice in this space, could really help convince the industry of what I have learned, and what you would certainly learn as well if you give this device a fair shake; the Dual Screen setup is a quality of life improvement unrivaled by anything else.
This phone has a higher megapixel selfie camera, bigger battery, even sound distribution through the speakers. They brought back the speaker in the ear instead of the in screen speaker. This phone will be exciting
I say review it. LG is usually lacking behind Samsung and Samsung will for sure get more hype around their fixed fold but this is LG actually trying something so I think it's worth a look
I actually kinda like the look of that. It seems a lot more practical and useful than the Galaxy Fold. The fact that you can make one half the keyboard or a game pad is a great sign. Oh, and I have the G8. It may not be the most exciting design ever, but it takes excellent pictures and lets you do really good things in manual mode.
It's almost certainly so the selfie cam can shine through the case... Though using the selfie cam without a screen to see the selfie is as pointless as the notch itself.. so yeah basically it's for nothing... Much like the selfie cam on any phone I buy anyways :)
I hope you realise that the notch exists because both panels were pulled from the same production line. It doesn't make sense to have a separate production line for a notchless display. Plus it maintains the symmetry.
With all the issues Samsung has had with the Fold, I actually really like this concept. Definitely something that would be more robust in the short term while foldables continue to evolve.
I find LG phones to be underrated so I personally would appreciate a review so yes please. The question I have is if the glass mirror finish on the outside cracks does the inside screen still work?
I think this actually looks better, well, more practical than the fold... Eccept for that glass front, that looks kind of tacky. Please review this, Mr.Mobile.
This is really good for multi-tasking, I like the concept. It is more affordable and Idea is great. This is more practical solution until foldable smartphones are affordable and reliable.
This phone is going to be a beast. Dual screen bundled WITH the phone, 32mp front camera for 4k video (finally for LG), AMSR (whisper) recording, in-display fingerprint reader, and they kept the freaking awesome headphone jack audio as well! Coming to the US in November for only $700 unlocked w/ the extra screen. LG did good on this one for sure!
Love your reviews, Mr Mobile. Please do one for the G8x ... by itself. It sounds like it provides much of what everyone complained was missing from other releases this year, and deserves some thorough reviews. The additional screen is icing or gravy, or gravy icing... but an objective view says this is a phone worth reviewing, even without the "gricing".
I think sometimes u are too harsh on companies who are trying to do something new. I totally liked the product and i think its a step in a right direction.
I would honestly love to see a review of the G8X along with the case. I love novelty stuff, and I also want to see LGs new interface, because LG is the only Android skin I was never a fan of and it was overdue for a reskin
A review would be great. This may be the safest way to go when it comes to folding phones. Concerned on how the external display affect the battery life though. Probably won't be good.
After buying this phone and the dual screen case i have to say i love it. This phone doesn't get enough praise. Great job LG and yes i would love to see a review on this phone.
Yes - Review it. I'm actually a bit surprised that you would even imply that it's not worth your time to do so. If this was a budget device from a random Chinese company with no widespread distribution, then I would understand; however, this is a flagship product that will see a world-wide release. It is literally your job to review it and your customers (the viewers) will appreciate you doing so in a thorough and comprehensive manner as you have done for so many years.
I’d like to see what LG’s new take on Android looks like. Their UI has been mostly unchanged since the V20 honestly. I feel like that’s been one of the downsides of their previous phones. 🤔
You should do a proper review of newer lg dial screen models: v60, velvet etc... If Samsung or Apple offered dual screen option to the Note it woukd instantly be the hottest phone on market.
Yes, review it! It may not be a true foldable screen, but it is a novel approach that we can have today. Also as an accessory I'd bet it'll cost a lot less than Samsung's foldable at nearly two-thousand dollars... I'd also wager that the hinge is more robust and won't have to worry about over time creasing the foldable glass/plastic that makes up your foldable screen. But yeah, matte black outside is better than a mirror finish that's just asking to be smudged and cracked the first time your drop it. If LG were smart, they'd make it matte to avoid these and then rim it in silicone so it in effect becomes its own case. I've had a case on my Moto G5 Plus for I don't know how many years and of the times I've dropped my device I think it has landed flat side first maybe twice. It's the rim and corner that usually impact first and where you need that protection. I'd consider giving LG another try if I could have this thing...
@@tams805 They also make simply bumpers and not the entire traditional case. They can be at times a little harder to find, but I'd be curious to know if a simple silicone bumper could be stretched around that thing for some protection? The dimensions don't look all that much bigger than that of the phone itself.
It's obviously a great design and tool for those that need two screens to emulate more closely what you can do on a laptop. This is exactly what I thought should be designed. You don't need to have one seamless big screen, this suffices. There are laptops and tablets for that. These lemming reviewers are looking at this phone and reviewing it according to the arbitrary standards of iPhones and Samsung phones instead of looking at the phone afresh.
I would love to see a review on the device. I truly want to know what your thoughts are on its everyday use. Short and long term. Please and thanks. You rock! Keep it up.
I purchased one of these phones, through AT&T last week and I really like it. Honestly, though, I don't really use the second screen all that often. Partially due to time constraints and partially because the apps that work on two screens aren't ones I use often and/or the two-screens-at-once option isn't necessary or optimal. Having said that, I like that I can pop the phone out of the dual screen case and carry the phone around like any other. The price is rather nice too as AT&T did not charge extra for the dual screen case. Finally, the one thing I really do not like is the charger for when the phone is in the dual screen case. While the magnetic connection may seem strong, it is easily disturbed and the phone often times go off charging mode without the user realizing it. If you're going to charge it this way, make sure to lay it flat and leave it alone. Just my thoughts. Thank you for your review and efforts Mike. Really enjoy your channel
Do it, Mike. Please. As a current user of an imported V50 Dual Screen, I can tell you, the multitasking upgrade of running with a second screen is an absolute game changer, which you, out of all the popular reviewers, will most appreciate. The V50 is a little rough around the edges, and the G8x seems like a minimal improvement in some regards, and a bit of a downgrade in others, almost as if it is a prototype. but as such, from the perspective of someone that is is daily driving a dual screen, it's the proof of concept of an idea that I do think could revolutionize the smartphone world. People are going to realize that the hype around the folding phone was misplaced; it WON'T help increase productivity. But a Dual Screen setup, especially if you are running the third party app "island." It isn't the polished product that you'll want it to be, but you'll see something in it, a flash of brilliance, the possibility of a whole new paradigm. And i fully believe that you'll come to see why two displays is undeniably superior to a single, large, deployable display, and find yourself salivating over the dream of one day holding a Galaxy Note Dual Screen, thinking about the possibilities IT could offer. The Industry as a whole needs you, your sensible power user persective and insight, and your eloquent, articulate voice for the task. The whole tech community is about to take a very disheartening hit when (even with price and durability concerns ignored) the Fold turns out to be an utter pain to use, and THAT hype bubble bursts. I'm typing this on one screen, while my other screen is playing netflix. when I'm done, I'll find another youtube video to play while I simultaneously type up an admittedly overdue email, and If i need to hunt up links for it, I can do it without the pain of ordinary app switching. It is truly a game changer, and I hope you will give it a good, long look.
i promised myself that the phone i.m using now is here to stay for at leat 2 years... so i hope lg makes a second version of this next year.. cuz it is exactly wut i wanted, a way for the person next to you to enjoy wut are you seeing without trying to hold the phone at a weird angle and seing it fro the side.. and the fact that it is optional and don.t have to carry it around in the pocket whenever i want.. maaan feels goood
Yeah of course, I want you to review it. The screen looks gorgeous in the video, would like to hear your two cents on whether or not LG has reached the level of screen finesse that Samsung is capable of. Also, the speakers on this phone, are they the best on any smartphone on the planet? And the software rehash you mentioned, would like to hear more on it.
Yes yes please review it I’m very into it I love LG phones that one looks very interesting especially since I’m a Uber driver so imagine no interruptions using that phone with both Lyft and Uber at the sabe time 🤩
Yup, wanna see the review. Since most flagships are dropping the headphone jack looks like LG would be the only option I'll consider in the future. And this feature makes it even more appealing in terms of productivity.

The whole tech community is about to take a very disheartening hit when (even with price and durability concerns ignored) the Fold turns out to be an utter pain to use, and THAT hype bubble bursts.
I'm typing this on one screen, while my other screen is playing netflix. when I'm done, I'll find another youtube video to play while I simultaneously type up an admittedly overdue email, and If i need to hunt up links for it, I can do it without the pain of ordinary app switching. It is truly a game changer, and I hope you will give it a good, long look.
i promised myself that the phone i.m using now is here to stay for at leat 2 years... so i hope lg makes a second version of this next year.. cuz it is exactly wut i wanted, a way for the person next to you to enjoy wut are you seeing without trying to hold the phone at a weird angle and seing it fro the side.. and the fact that it is optional and don.t have to carry it around in the pocket whenever i want.. maaan feels goood
Yeah of course, I want you to review it. The screen looks gorgeous in the video, would like to hear your two cents on whether or not LG has reached the level of screen finesse that Samsung is capable of.
Also, the speakers on this phone, are they the best on any smartphone on the planet?
And the software rehash you mentioned, would like to hear more on it.
For the first time in years I’m excited about a phone. I want this phone!
I haven’t been particularly interested in Android phones and their accessories but this looks cool. I think you should review it.
LG G8X: Has dual screen
Nintendo DS: Am I a joke to you?
I've been waiting for LG to cut down the notch and a bigger battery, this looks like a good buy tbh
Yes yes please review it I’m very into it I love LG phones that one looks very interesting especially since I’m a Uber driver so imagine no interruptions using that phone with both Lyft and Uber at the sabe time 🤩
Ricky & Joseph's Game play pretty sure you can do that on modern xiaomis and other android devices that provide side-by-side support
chewbster yep but think about it is not as confy as it can be with this one 😁.
Yes please, a review would be awesome
Yup, wanna see the review. Since most flagships are dropping the headphone jack looks like LG would be the only option I'll consider in the future. And this feature makes it even more appealing in terms of productivity.
Interesting! You have to review this.
Liked even before watching the video. Keep up the good work. You deserve 100 mil subs
I would like to see a review to see how it lives up to daily use.. Thanks!
