So, I’ll say this outright, I am not a big sucker for mobile phones with a high specifications as I consider them a bit gimmicky. Why do I say this? well on a laptop which usually comes with a 13 or a 15.6-inch screen or more, having a lot of ram and a fast processor makes sense, you can multitask by having numerous tabs/windows open due to the benefit of having a bigger screen. On phones, however, these specifications fall flat because technically speaking you can never utilize it to its true potential because all you have is a single screen which may be at most 6.5-inches or 7 or a few inches more. Some may argue playing games is a practical use but on a serious note the thought of buying a 30-70K phone to play three free-to-play games from the Playstore, ported over from PC, doesn’t excite me. We say phones with high specs can multitask but does quickly switching from one app to the other really means multitasking?
This is where LG G8X Dual Screen Phone comes into the picture. Yeah it has only 6gb of ram (You don’t need more), yeah it runs on Snapdragon 855 (not 855+, you don’t need that either), but no phone at this price point or more, allows you to touch and open two different apps simultaneously on two different screens, at the same time. No phone allows you to play Youtube videos, while you order food or book a cab or have google maps opened on the other screen. My job requires me to write 50-60 emails daily on an average and this phone is a godsend, I don’t have to take out my laptop every time. I can have Gmail opened on one screen and on the other I can have a full-size keyboard.
This is what you call true multi-tasking, why switch apps all the time, when you can have two of them opened at the same time. Want to compare prices of a product on both Amazon and Flipkart well you can do that, open Amazon on one and Flipkart on another.
This thing is ridiculously useful and the most practical one out there, but sadly folks here in India won’t buy this beauty because of how severely underrated LG phones are and how much less credit they get for innovations. Guess I’ll have to make merry in the fact that atleast I bought it while it was still available.

The device and Dual Screen are just awesome!
Quad DAC is ESS ES9218P audio chip, that sound really great (checked that in my Sennheiser HD280 Pro)
What you really need to know is:
0. The device model is LMG850EMW.AINVBK (INV means for India made in Vietnam) – that revisions is also known as LMG850EMW1. I didn’t noticed any differences from other revisions except the fact that was no charger there;
1. That one is regionally locked – that means you need to use it at least 30 min with Indian provider SIM in India to unlock – if you don’t do that you will cannot use it with International SIM cards and unlocking services won’t help you;
2. Desktop Mode is NOT working with magnetic charging adapter – you need to put the Dual Screen off each time you want to use that feature (I used it with “dodocool 14-in-1 multifunctional USB-C Hub with Power Delivery ( DC74GY)” and anything worked fine).
3. Fast charge is working with Dual Screen ONLY when magnetic charging adapter connected this way when the lightning logo on charging adapter is at the top;
4. Dual Screen and main phone screen have made with the same displays except the fact they had different types of flex cables – you won’t be able to change main screen display to the one from Dual Screen case if you broke it;
5. If you have bricked your phone, don’t worry – it could start in EDL mode via button combination even without battery, there is no need to disassemble it;
6. There is NO charger inside the box despite the fact IT’S MENTIONED IN ITEM DESCRIPTION (that’s because I left just four stars except five).
7. AMOLED screen is little eyestraining – compared it with IPS in my previous Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro: LG’s AMOLED has much better colors, but Xiaomi’s IPS is much more convenient if you use it for a long in low light
8. Audiojack hole in Dual Screen is too much thin – most of jack connector cannot be connected because of this fact. I bought 3.5mm jack adapter that connects with great effort, but fits – it’s Greenconnect GCR-STM1114-0.25m.
My resolution – I highly recommend this phone to buy if you like music and multitasking.
Also I’m deeply sure that you won’t be disappointed in cameras quaility (color rendering is very close to nature).
