LG G8 ThinQ Camera Conclusion: Master of All (Rounders)

What happens when you cut two cameras off a V40, and spruce the auto modes a little? You get the LG G8! Previous LG’s have been fantastic for pro modes and manual controls, but have often suffered at the friendlier auto modes. Has the G8 fallen into the same trap? Here’s the camera conclusion for LG’s newest phone! Continue reading “LG G8 ThinQ Camera Conclusion: Master of All (Rounders)”

#SGGQA 091: Galaxy Fold Flop, Nokia 9 Security, Change your Instagram Password

The Galaxy Fold launch is being postponed in China, but Samsung forges ahead for the USA launch! The Nokia 9 finally got an update, but that might be a good thing. Instagram passwords were stored in plain text, millions of users should change their passwords. Google is advertising on Laura Ingraham’s show. Apple and Qualcomm bury the hatchet, while Intel leaves the 5G race.

LG G8 is PERFECT competition for the Galaxy S10 (Suggesting Otherwise is Silly)

LG G8 vs Galaxy S10? It’s been said that there’s no competition, but that requires someone to completely ignore all the things LG does well. It CAN be OK for a manufacturer to focus on different features than what a more popular manufacturer chooses to include (or exclude). Let’s have a quick chat about tech reviewing on YouTube, and compare two awesome smartphones. Because apparently, only popular YouTubers can recommend popular phones. That’s not very fun…
