LG G7 One Hands-On Review | Premium vanilla Android

- Hands-on review with the LG G7 One, a fresh take on the G7 ThinQ flagship with slightly tempered specs and the Android One experience.
LG's only additions to the G7 One are the likes of Super Boost for the spacious display and some slick Quad DAC audio support. Besides that, this is clean, vanilla Android all the way. As a result, the LG G7 One isn't quite as premium as the standard G7 when it comes to hardware - last year's Snapdragon 835 chipset is on board for instance. And there's a single lens rear camera, with a stripped-down app for shooting your life.
The LG G7 One UK price and release date have not yet been confirmed, but we want to know - are you tempted by the G7 One, with its smooth, clutter-free interface? Let us know and stay tuned for a full G7 One review!
Lg finally android one
I'm lit over this
Will it be available in U.S.?
i just got one as well ... any idea how to hide the notch w/o a 3rd party download
The most underrated phone... But... it has a lot of competition in the "mid-range"
This is a great move for LG.. I always wished for this...
I own an LG G5 and it is a very good phone, imagine this G7, astounding.
I hope you make a full video of unboxing and review of this device. Specially in terms of camera performance, gaming, battery drain and charging performance. Thanks! More viewers and subcribers.
👍👍👍👊✌️✌️✌️
Why do they have to sell different hardware to get this skin out. All of their phones should get a software update with some iteration of this skin. A OnePlus-esque skin would result in an indefinite boost in sales as LG's UI is one of it's most unattractive features.
thats kinda limited or blocked with business decisions I suppose.. Any phone with SD845 and android one will kill the upcoming Pixel phones.. So Google wont support it I guess.. That why LG has gone for SD835.. But this still is cool media phone but wont be suitable for AI features in pie..
LG's UI looks much better than stock android and performance is very similar. No lag or freezing on my V30.
The choice of not only storage capacity, ram and colour but flavour of Android (LG UI or One) would be so neat.
@@anthonyj810 yes it does! What is wrong with people? I won't buy an LG with stock Android, it's simply not LG.
Try out an LG phone. The UI isn't what it used to be. It's really nice to use, no lag and a sleek design. Some neat features too
This is what I want to see from big companies. An android one addition to go with there flagships. This is great for those who prefer vanilla stock android with no bloatware duplicate apps and extras and just want a smooth software experience.
Price tag should be in the 400$ Range.
would be nice if LG allowed us to install vanilla android on the G7 ThinQ
YES
I've been using this phone for about a month. At first I wasn't sure how I felt about Android One (Google Assistant is a big disappointment to me), but I've really enjoyed the phone and find that I spend less time fiddling with the interface than on any other mobile OS I've had. The phone is speedy and can easily play games like Mario Kart while Battery Saver is on. The battery capacity isn't great but I find the phone is pretty efficient with it, so I've actually never gone below 20% by time I got home as of yet. The Li-Po battery supposedly holds less charge than the usual Li-Ion BUT it's also supposed to have greater longevity, which aligns nicely with the promise that every Android One phone is supposed to stay up-to-date for at least 3 years after release. Call quality is good. Speaker is not great quality but there is a nice bass-boost feature when you put the phone down on a surface. There are a couple of good audio features that really deliver premium sound when you use headphones. Altogether I'm not sure this phone competed well at the original price tag but a year later it's definitely a good choice if you can get it at a lower price or free with your contract.
Is it coming to india?
The LG we always wanted !
Will definitely buy this
Thanks for the review...I hope they bring it to India
I thinq I found my next phone. I hope T Mobile will carry it.
Will it be available in the U.S.?
Hope so, LG has their phones on Project Fi. I bite either this one or the OnePlus 6T if it comes to T-Mobile
No pixel binning aka super bright mode for the camera?
I want this phone so bad, but no one knows if it will be sold in the U.S. and it's driving me insane!!!!
IF the price is good we will get a last year flagship (with sd 835 which is better than all midrange cpu) with stock android and features of a this year flagship for a midrange price. Not bad strategy by LG. Maybe this is because of G6 which was cheaper and people who had budget around 300$ bought that phone instead of newer midranges. I always tend to buy older flagship than newer midrange, only thing I wanted is the updates which we will get with G7 One.
Do these ship with unlockable bootloaders?
Forgive my ignorance as been using apple until now, but is the android "easy" mode on the G7 like the Samsung galaxy 9+? I can't use my external DAC (standard USB interface) with my iphone and has me done with that company for a while. Apparently apple feels no external DACs other than their standard dongle are to receive serial streaming data. If I understand correctly, the G7 is essentially a high performance DAC and headphone amplifier with a phone around it... what I am looking for.
If they do a V- series one ill buy regardless of price.
How about a video on "the differences" between Android One and a "normal load" of apps on a branded phone? I just want a smart phone without all the "social media crap". Plus "misinformation from the internet". ;)
Can we hide the notch?
If not, then does it show up when playing games or watching videos?
Great content btw!
Cheers from the Philippines!!
I think you can hide the notch. When watching video and gaming, the notch is disable.
Yes you can hide it
If only it has same spec!!!!! Damn it lg
Android one software update is from google or from device makers ?
Directly from Google
Both in some case but mostly google
Good review
Price ?🤔
Imo if it's more than $400 people won't care about it.
TURBOBACON 400$ is for this model , this is A third class model
Price of this not more than 7000 INR,(100-123$)
@@pcs_sandiplathiya3532 chutiya hai kya 7000 me QHD display, 4GB RAM, Android One, Dual wide angle camera, Snapdragon 835 kaun deta hai. Chutiye
30 quid
fucker ashole
....wont even care to correct the spelling for this loser
i can guess you can probably get pixel 2 for the price of this device which is even better at delivering updates.
It should be the same price as the p20 lite £280
350 eur maximum
Any idea when it will come to the us ?
Why they remove wide angle lens ??
I wish Samsung would do this. An S9 with Android One would be awesome.
Cant wait until galaxy s9 one and xperia xz3 one.
Can you hide the notch like on the regular G7?
32 GB built in and not expandable? I'm confused...
Is it ip68 certified?
Yes it is
@@angela-onesroman8873 does the LG G7 also have unlimited photo storage? And does every android one phone have unlimited photo storage?
What's the price of it?
now thats some pretty device, but the battery,
Wha does lg have against larger batteries??
If you're a heavy user. U need to charge it once a day
My video quality for Instagram videos only is horrible no idea why. It will start fine for a half second then get all blurry
Still have led notification light?
Yes
Does it have NFC? Some say yes, some say no.
Hiw much is lg G7 one. Going to cost
Will it be available in U.S.?
is it global or for specific country
NFC? wireless charging?
Wide angle lens?
I want have one if lg bring it to my country
Lg will never learn from their past.
Biggest issue:
3000 mAh battery isn't enough!!! on an LG device.
But almost stock Android never consumes that much amount of battery, I have v30+ and Battery lasts a day for me on average
Why 32g and 835? Weird!
2:58 the phone made him mad.
This or Samsung A8
should had to do that at first place LG..
Why can't it be just a g7 with Android one instead of downgrading the specs?
Because Google must have blocked it because it will be a Pixel 3 Killer.. You cant have Android one phone with pixel specs..
@@NaveenKumar-lp2rz true didn't think of that
Is that metal or matte glass?
George T. seems like matte glass
It's metal
its metal actually
"melt their face" 😂😅😭
Lol
lol 2:58
But...why?
@@michaelbergman8758 cuz who wants a break from gaming ?
3000mah battery took my interest out.
is the back made of plastic? i cant tell
@Abdul lmao it's glass my man
The back of the phone is matte glass.
Wide angle camera is LG's USP. Everyone's been asking for stock android LG phone for years. What does LG do? Release the Android One edition but remove the wide angle lens. WTF?!?! Whoever is in charge of LG mobile division should be sacked. IMMEDIATELY.
Droooooool
The better Pixel...
Did he just say that a 3,00 mAh battery will give you a "full day of battery life"?
It just might, cuz its a snapdragon 835. Cuz my pixel 2xl has 3520 mAh and it runs for a day and a half.
@@ypytshorts I have an S8. An 835 will not last a day on 3,000 mAh.
@@michaelbergman8758 chances are,it won't. But then again it has pure android. Guess we'll have to wait for full reviews to see the results. Now I'm excited to see what happens in the full review 😃
maybe you are using your phone wrong
@@michaelbergman8758 ha! Samsung! It won't last a day. 😂 Except Note.
Can someone make an android one rom for lg g6😂 love the hardware software is shit
Notch again!!!??
Lg + vanilla = Bootloop
What's "premium" about it?
@@Mohammedannamaja Snapdragon 845 not 835
Khalid l snapdragon 835 not 845
It has 845 or 835?

845

Where is my LG V20 oreo update, LG?....
www.androidcentral.com/lg-v20-and-q6-now-being-updated-android-80-oreo
I got my orea update on lg v20
this phone probably runs faster and smoother than its big brother G7 because of all the bloat.
32gb really?
Has micro sd slot
pixel 3 killer
Sure. Now get Samsung to make one and I'm all in.
Nice!!👌👌👍👍🤣
Uhm it's the same as the original lg G7 that came out
Ultimate GamerYT - Externally, pretty much except for the single camera. Internally, not really. SD835 and Android One. So no, it's not the same.
Still waiting for Android to get rid of the but chin! And to top it they have the in screen buttons!!! If you guys are gonna leave a chin use it for the buttons! WTF That's just stupid!!!
just buy lg v30 plus though !!
Fuck, selling Zenfone 5Z to buy this instead
theres no way i would be buying another lg phone... heck! my v10 died on me in less than 2 years.. ic problem... i love that phone.. its a shame the quality is shit...
my samsung s7 after 1 years and 4 monts is dead
ТЕРМИНАТОР X nowadays they seem to made phones that are disposable..
I see screen bleed on the bottom left corner........... cheap crap
Have to say the pocophone f1 looks awesome for the price
Why the notch whyyyyyyyy !!!
The notch hasn't really bothered me. U can hide it too but it might appear in some apps, the only downside for me is that it will block a part of the screen if u play a video from your gallery on full screen
Needs to be in 300 pounds price range
I reckon it's gonna b there or thereabouts mate. Any more than that, n it won't make any sense, since u can get a proper G7 for just £460 now.
I got a G6 right now n if the G7 android One is indeed around 300 quid, I will definitely go for it. Not really bothered about the SD835. Current gen chipset means fuck all if the software ain't updated.
Totally agree mate 835 chipset with vanilla android will be sleek as hell plus regular updates I think if the price is right I will buy it
Ridiculous to me the lg g7 is a budget specked phone why water down an underdog, lg get real…
1st
That bezels! Garbage phone like the Xperia. 👎🏻
Samsung too. No notch yet.
Will it be available in U.S.?
