the LGG seven will come with the latest Snapdragon a 45 processor four gigs of
RAM 64 gigs of storage 3000 milliamp power battery and a whopping 6.1 inch
LED screen which boasts brightness of thousand nits the resolution is at the
highest in the industry at 3125 1440 pixels with nineteen point five by nine
screen ratio which is probably the longest smartphone out right now in
pixel density of 563 PPI edging out the galaxy s 9 we will compare the final
unit against the s 9 but for right now LG G seven looks perfect
hey guys Maxim on Android comm where we get on Android every day Amy I'm at the
LG G 7 events but I did get to try the LG G 7 for about about 2 hours let's go
ahead and do my first impressions let's go do this baby
all right first impressions I really like the design definitely good I really
like it over the LGG six very similar to the v30
it's a sort of narrower feels thinner than v30 feels pretty solid compared to
last year's LG g6 it does definitely feel a lot more premium it's pretty
bright outside off the tested out but the thousand mid brightness I've got it
all at full brightness it's pretty good it definitely feels great especially
considering this year's screen size has gotten bigger from last year's 5.7
inches to six point one inches alright fingerprint position is perfect I like
it the only thing I don't like about the s9 + so like sometimes you got to do the
Crouching Tiger to really hit that button it's not a circle personally
seems like a very good position or up at the top you got a microphone SIM card
tray with the SD card on the right side you got a power button and on the bottom
you got 3.5 millimeter headphone jack and another microphone USB type-c and
this I'm room sound speakers and on the left side we've got volume buttons and
an AI button which is actually Google assistance they put the Google assistant
right into the button little Samsung galaxys they default to bixby which I
really don't like so I really like that there's also some custom commands you
can do I've got the s9 + so it is a little bit shorter a little bit narrower
I compared with the pixel to excel the display size is about the same height
slightly narrower
screen has gotten brighter and so has it's low-light camera performance the g7
has much improved low-light performance camera that combines pixel binning the
process of combining four pixels into one for super-bright photos in low light
along with a new sensor upon testing with my Galaxy S 9 plus the LG G 7 seems
to outperform s 9 plus in certain low-light situations
let me do a quick test here alright Wow looks actually pretty good alright let
me do a quick test with the s 9 versus the g7 and it is actually slightly wider
I'll definitely have to do some testing but it looks very promising whose how
much brighter with the g7 is zooming in it looks pretty good Wow even comparing
with the king of smartphone low-light photography in my opinion which is pixel
to excel g7 also seems to do well in making dark areas very bright low-light
performance is actually pretty amazing with the the g7 I just took a photo with
my pixel to excel versus D g7 yeah how much brighter the dark spots are there
is two cameras as usual this year's g7 ships with a 16 megapixel wide-angle and
regular camera I noticed that the regular camera is much wider than last
year while many smartphone manufacturers have
gone with a zoom lens I personally feel that wide-angle is more useful as a
second lens and I'm so glad LG has kept it
this year's wide-angle also features 16 megapixel camera instead of last year's
13 megapixel it should give you more pixels to work with the LG G 7 also
comes with many camera modes including its manual mode for both photos and
videos which I love of course after fiddling with the camera I also found an
HDR video recording mode this is the world's first smartphone that is capable
of recording HDR video I don't really have time to test it but I'll definitely
give you a detailed review soon new features is the AI cam let's check out
if the AI cam works on this fruit oh you recognize fruit take a photo
now how's that improved photo let me go ahead and turn it off and take a shots
this is without the AI this is what they I so you can see the fruit more colorful
sort of the highlights are better probably the biggest thing this year is
the front camera I hope it's got improved doesn't look too bad off to do
some further testing LG's weakness has always been the front
camera so we'll see how this fares this here re there is a portrait mode this
here so let me go and try it looks pretty good
a little bit of trouble with the Hat not too bad all right as far as the rear for
trip node LG's actually using a grayscale with the second camera to
figure out the death you don't get such a crop version and you can see here the
pixel to excel does a terrific job of doing that already but it's actually
wider than the pixel to excel so that's going to be very interesting especially
if your subject is close to you I'm you're gonna still be able to get that
nice portrait mode with bokade
does the LGG seven come with a notch yes but fortunately you can easily hide
this notch or you can customize it to your liking I don't think it's a big
deal so long as you can hide it alright as far as a notch I don't feel
your fan of not but I like the fact that you have the option to hide it so here's
the new second screen you can get rid of the knotch
easily Wow Wow you can even put different colors I mean it's a good
thing they added this customization otherwise I'll probably not buy it
rounded corners if you want less rounded corners more rounded corners I think
I'll use it like that you can't really tell there's a notch probably the
biggest improvement and coolest feature this year it's its new speakers dub
boombox speakers which feature 38% bigger speakers than last year's LG g6
along with much bigger resonance chamber basically LG g7 uses its in their space
within the phone as resonance chamber and although this is not stereo speakers
it is really really really loud in terms of decibels the g7 is 9 decibels louder
than the LG G 6 6 decibels louder than the galaxy s 8 now the loudspeakers are
complemented by its efficient use of inner space of a smart phone and really
allows it to boom I'm giving you that nice base LG has use a ceiling ring that
seals the entire space of the inner space similar to how subwoofers work in
fact when you listen to music you can literally feel the whole phone vibrate
in your hands my testings with the phone against the galaxy s 9 plus I felt I
could put the galaxy s 9 speaker to my year within about an inch while with the
LG G 7 it was so loud I could only put it near maybe three inches here's a
quick demo
so sound really pops out boom sound unite should really feel the vibration
now this will work out great for listening to music while walking my dog
plus speakers are on the bottom and meaning the sound could still be heard
while in your pocket ylg has been always top of their sound game and this year is
no exception as it comes with a 32-bit bog DAC so you can power your headphones
without using an amp allowing you to maximize sound whether using a cheap
$20.00 earbuds or even eight hundred ohm headphones else you didn't stop there
though they added DTS X surround sound that will give you 3d sound actually
feel the sound in 3d space as if there's seven speakers around you now I didn't
get to try this out but definitely will give you detailed demo once I get the
retail unit the g7 also features an enhanced microphone dub super far field
voice recognition basically it gets you 35 increased voice recognition and this
will mean that you'll be able to use your phone with Google assistant even if
your phone is far away in a big room or maybe perhaps in another room
now how bright is it I got to test out against my galaxy si and their bright
sunlight test lab and indeed it is a little bit brighter than the s9 plus
which probably has the brightest screen on the market today
so LG has these lights so activate the bright sunlight and they're accurate
rillette the brightest and you see the g7 on the right is actually looks
brighter although the test ones the final retail versions out but definitely
LG has topped samsung air with a much much brighter screen however I found
viewing angles were slightly better with the s9 plus I think LG took their time
this year and instead of launching a flagship with an older processor like
last year it seems like LG took the time and got everything right better screen
speakers camera what else do you really need I should have a full review
eventually but for right now I give it a big thumbs up very good smartphone
muy bien Wow oh guys thanks for watching this video don't get the thumbs up you
know I really like LG's really improving things especially the display of the
sounds and I'm a lover of the wide-angle camera I'm actually still using my V 20
as one of my daily drivers now this year with the improved sensor you're gonna be
able to get better photos better videos with the wide-angle with the regular
camera so it's gonna be very exciting but I'll have a review when I get
hands-on the retail version have a great day and as always stay on g7 wow
I like it I like it I deaf no it's all good
I got I got a I got a make yeah hey guys it's max from hi language calm we're
