Just like last year, LG is preparing two flagships for 2019, with the first one being the G8 ThinQ. During the MWC 2019 trade show, things are expected to be a little different, thanks to the introduction of 5G connectivity. Disappointingly, the G8 ThinQ isn’t going to be the first 5G-ready flagship from the struggling company, but the V50 ThinQ will be, according to the latest leak.

The latest image shared by Evan Blass shows LGs’ first 5G-ready flagship, the V50 ThinQ running on the Sprint network. It is possible LG launches the V50 ThinQ in the U.S. exclusively through Sprint, but other carriers might agree to sell the flagship if things pan out. As for the design, the V50 ThinQ looks similar to last year’s V40 ThinQ but it could be a move from LG to save costs, seeing as how the company has suffered successive losses in this business.
