History has shown that LG has never been the one to release its G-series and V-series flagships during the same period, but according to a new rumor, things might take a different turn. Struggling with its mobile business, the Korean giant wants to turn things around, and according to the latest info, the G8 ThinQ and V50 ThinQ will be launched at the same time. Of course, the V50 ThinQ is expected to be the pricier of the two thanks to a significant difference. The upcoming flagship is reportedly going to be the first flagship from the company to sport a 5G modem.
If information published on ETNews is assumed to be correct, both the G8 ThinQ and V50 ThinQ will be launched in Barcelona, where the MWC 2019 trade show will be held. The G8 will retain an LTE chip like its predecessors, while the V50 will reportedly be the first smartphone to feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X50 5G modem. This will also be the first time LG introduces two flagships from a different branding at the same time.
