LG G7 ThinQ’s design is almost similar to the other smartphone of the LG, which is V30s ThinQ, which is the lower variant of this smartphone. The rear panel of the phones is quite similar, with the little change in the orientation of the camera.

The installation of this processor in this smartphone will definitely improve the performance and speed of this phone.

To improve the gaming performance of this smartphone newly build GPU Adreno 630 has been given with it. As we have look on the performance of the previous GPU, which was Adreno 540, which was fantastically awesome so, we can ensure ourselves with the gaming performance of LG G7 Thinq, that it is going to be flawless.

In order to give a smooth and flawless performance to the users, LG has coupled this Snapdragon 845 with the RAMs of 4 GB and 6 GB.
