Latest LG V40 ThinQ spec sheet reveals variant with 8GB of RAM

Alleged LG V40 ThinQ render

In two weeks’ time, when LG unveils the V40 ThinQ, multiple different device storage configurations are set to be announced. According to sources, the base model will ship with 6GB of RAM, and if a new leak is accurate, the range-topping one may boast 8GB of RAM instead.

Alongside this RAM count, consumers can expect to see 128GB of internal storage which will presumably be expandable. Additionally, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 845 will unsurprisingly be present, as will a 3,300mAh battery. This means that no internal upgrades have been made other than the increase in RAM when compared to the V35 ThinQ.

The major details that differentiate the V40 ThinQ are actually on the external side of things. Starting off with the display, it has grown to 6.4-inches in size and has controversially gained a notch in the process. While this isn’t home to any Face ID-like tech, it does house an in-ear speaker and two front-facing cameras of 8-megapixels and 5-megapixels in resolution respectively. When it comes to the rear, the dual-camera setup on LG’s previous flagships has been expanded in order to incorporate a third. This means that there will be a main 16-megapixel sensor, a second 12-megapixel one with a wide-angle lens, and a third 8-megapixel camera complete with a telephoto lens.

LG’s next flagship is expected to go on sale in the second half of October following its announcement in the first week. Unfortunately, at this moment in time, it’s unclear how LG will position it against the device against the competition.

Huh. Here you are, but yet you'll b*tch and moan about Android trolls in Apple articles.

I've had several of the last LG phones (every V and G model since the V20) and I've loved every one of them. To me, the Samsung models are a no-go because of the display. And I REALLY love the DAC in the latest 2 LG phones I've had (V30 and G6). My wife and I are both getting the V40 when it's released.

I also have lg G6 and v35 thinQ. There phones are really good for the price. But I think they should consider using bigger batteries in their phones.

I use LG V30 for almost a year now and there are so many things that could be done better. LG is a good manufacturer, but still, you are trading one compromise for another. Not to mention V40 has a notch, so that disqualifies it in a first place.

Why buy this when the POCOPHONE F1 offers all the above specs for just $300?? This is how Android OEMs kill themselves and handover the market to Apple. They devalue themselves.....lol

My V20 is laggy! That's why I haven't touched it. Hopefully, oreo will take care of that lag.

I have the LG V30 and also love it. There are a few things that are annoying though. 1) front camera is very very bad even when using the gcam app on xda. 2)Back camera is ok but I want it on samsung level. Especially the shutter speed. 3)back camera glass scratches easily. We need sapphire glass on the lens cover.

The first camera with the trifecta Regular, wide angle and telephoto cameras which NO OTHER MANUFACTURER has delivered with a Quad DAC included and a headphone jack which seems like a premium feature nowadays, top of the line SD845 and 8GB of RAM and you say no one will care about???? You're ridiculous!!!! I think want You mean is you won't care about simply because you're Broke and can't afford it!!!!

The fact is no one does care. LG sells a few phones in the US and Korea, they are losing money hand over fist for years now and the top brass at LG will only let it happen for so long then LG Mobile will be no more.

Pocophone is an affordable phone for those who care mainly about fast SOC and RAM. This is not a bad thing, it's just what it is. V40 has much better display, much better cameras, much better loudspeaker, quad DAC much better built quality.

2019 is all about battery size, LG ! I remember the days where LG Chem did crazy things like stacked battery for G2 in order to fit a (then a record) 3000 mAh inside a 5.2"/16:9 screen device, or created a hexagonal 560mAh battery for the Watch Urbane 2nd Edition LTE. And now ? They fit measly 3000mAh batteries even in their large phone offerings, and expect people to buy their devices. Get your act together, LG !
