LG has launched the G8s ThinQ in India. The smartphone was launched earlier this year at the Mobile World Conference (MWC) 2019. It comes with some unique features like Hand ID, Air Motion, etc. The LG G8s ThinQ has a MIL-STD 810G-certified build quality.
LG G8s ThinQ Specifications
LG G8s ThinQ features a 6.2-inch Full HD+ display with a 1080 x 2248 resolution and a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. The display has a wide notch at the top for a bunch of sensors alongside the front camera.
The LG G8s ThinQ’s notch houses sensors for Hand ID and Air Motion.
Using the Time-of-Flight (ToF) front camera, the G8 can scan the veins in your hand to unlock the phone. LG calls this new biometric authentication Hand ID, and it works by sourcing information from the haemoglobin in the blood and rendering a unique image of your vein.
