Camera lag is bad and wait to save to storage is bad too. For this device, it should save MUCH faster particularly to built in storage. My S9+ saves MUCH faster and it's pointing to a 256GB microSD card to boot. Not impressed.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] alx8:
As above camera is slow to launch, frustratingly slow to take pictures, and also as above sometimes the picture doesn't save after taking a shot and exiting the camera. Again as above very disappointed as I paid alot for this phone.....
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] laoh:
Camera user experience is garbage. Very slow to launch and be ready to take the first snap, when you press the shutter, slow to react, then switching back and forth between normal angle to wide angle is about 2-3x slower than the previous phones like G6, G5... It's baffling why the switching is so slow. Bad implementation all around. LG, c'mon, step it up!

Hi everyone! I have this device from about 1 year and I am very satisfied.

I'd like to know if there is something similar to samsung "live focus" which allow to make a photo with both cameras.

I am looking for this feature because of I have a picture in my device that look like to be maked with this feature: I found it in the AI folder, and it's making me crazy because I don't know how I did it!

Thank you all in advance ;)

Hello,

Does anyone know how to make the menu bar on the today screen a solid color instead of the gradient from top to bottom or a fade from white to a chosen color? I tried playing with base hue and my theme xml but cannot find anything to make it solid.

Thanks

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the LG G7 ThinQ can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Ali Mirza:
The charging speed is very good and fast too. On normal USB port of my laptop, it charges at average speed, so no complaints. But the battery stays really cool i.e below 30*C. On powerbank with QC or Wall Adaptor, the charge speeds are incredible. Around 1 -1.5 hour to full, it's close to One Plus charge speed, but faster than Samsung's own Fast Charging. LG :cowboy: for life.

15 remaining energy

The razer phone2 charger (qc4 +) will prompt 1 hour and 37 minutes to restore power.

The Motorola Turbocharger (pd3) will prompt 1 hour and 56 minutes to restore power.

When the screen is turned on, the g7 current can only reach 1a. The off screen is unknown (may be 1.5a).

Razer phone2 can reach 3a with two chargers (turbo / pd will be 20 minutes faster than razer / qc4)

I am confused about the charging efficiency of this phone. Why is Pd slower than QC4+?

If it beats the 5+ hours I get on my v30 I'll be happy
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] AarSyl:
Just started using mine today on the T-Mobile network. Coming frok the HTC U11, I must say that the battery burns faster than the U11, even with the more power effecient processor. Yes, I know that the screen is bigger.

As most of the YouTube reviews go, it seems like the screen on time will be rather polarizing. I'll follow up in about 2 days with an update.

I am getting about 5h45M SOT on average. Thought the battery would be horrible but quiet happy with it.

G7 plus: Bad Battery Life

I am using G7 plus 6GB version, I could never pass 4:15 minutes SOT so far (have been using High contrast theme to save battery + Greenify, still no help)

Other strange thing is that my phone's RAM consumption is always over 4GB. I wonder how is normal version managing memory? Can anyone please comment on RAM usage too?

LG G7 + 128 GB version, on Korean LG U+ Bloatware rom.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] misal6666:
That is really strange. I got mine from a service provider called Freedom Mobile and there is not a single piece of bloatware from their part. LG also stopped putting their bloatware on the phone since V30 I believe. I only have 4-5 bloatware from LG (Health app, Radio, Memo, Smart world). As per RAM usage, I have never had an issue. Right now, I am using 2.7 GB out of 4. After reboot, it goes down to 2.2.

Either your service provider has bloated the phone much beyond its capacity or there is some bug with the phone. Which app does the setting show use the most memory? For me, it is Android OS at 1.4 GB, System UI at 243 MB, Android System at 165 MB and Google play services at 157 MB. Everything else is double digit memory usage.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] aerowild:
Well then I guess, I have to accept thats the way things are here in South Korea. I am on LG U Plus provider and its full of bloatware. By the way, does you phone happen to have something called Qvoice (and few more starting with Q)?

Here is a screenshots of my G7's average ram usage. Usage is different for my device than what you are reporting. That might be one reason that my phome battery life also sucks.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] misal6666:
The only app I have on my phone which starts with q is QuickMemo+. I just charged my phone but I will share my Battery result with you by the end of the day. As for memory, mine looks like this.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] aerowild:
Thanks for sharing information. Your usage seems to be normal but I don't understand why my device's system and system apps are consuming more RAM.

My phone has Qvoice and looks like its LG version of Bixby (a much worse). I think, its only activated for Korean users for now (I pray it never gets out). There are few more starting with Q (is this same Q as in ThinkQ?). I have managed to silence most by not giving any permissions to those. But still I fear apps like these are main culprits, responsible for poor battery life.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Spindarella:
I am very happy with the battery so far. Took 6 hours SOT and two days and one night to get it to 20% (on wifi, notifications on but notification screen mostly off). Now I charge once every other day. After reading reviews I didn't expect that to be honest, very pleasant suprise.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Alphae:
I also have an U11 right now and planning to change it.

One of the choices is th G7 ThinQ (and also OP6, U11+). How is the LG compared to the U11?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] AarSyl:
I don't have the G7 anymore, but here are my thoughts (G7 vs U11):

1. I found that pictures from the camera were a bit softer than the U11, and double pressing the power button took a bit longer to lauch the camera on the G7 vs the U11.

2. Battery usage seemed a bit higher than my U11, even with the fact that my battery is one year old. My U11 DEFINITELY charged faster than the G7.

3. Screen is nice & bright. Brighter and more vivid than the U11. No disappointment there.

If it were my choice, I would go with the OP6, because it's a new experience & new processor. I'm currently on the Note 8, and I'm loving it...but my wife has the S9, and I can feel the difference with the processor. The SD845 is not MUCH faster...but using the Note 8 feels the same as the U11 in terms of speed. Getting the U11+ is nothing more than a different screen size & fingerprint location. The U11+ is more or less the same phone.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Alphae:
So with the U11 you got much SOT and better standy than the G7?

Yeah, I think i'll go with the OP6
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] AarSyl:
SOT varies, of course, but I think so. I spent a lot less time managing my battery life on the U11.

G7 camera is likely to he better than the OP6 camera, if that matters to you. Maybe not by that much, though.

Very impressed with battery life so far, still have to experiment with power saver mode and lower screen resolution
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Henaway:
Here's a SoT question that someone may have an answer to. Since this is an LCD display, the always on display has to light up the full screen to display anything. Shouldn't that count in stats as screen on time? The screen IS on. Yes, at lower power, much like having it set to minimum brightness, (in fact, if I go to min brightness with just white text on black showing, the always on looks brighter!) so why doesn't that show anywhere? If you factor that in, which I believe we should ... this phone beats the pants off anything else I've ever used. My phone sits out with the AOD going all day at work ... which should give me about 8 hours right there.

I know it's different with AMOLEDs, since they don't light up anything not in use. But this is LCD ... on is on is on.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Newmuh:
Sometimes i get even 7+ SOT:good:
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] titanwalking:
I'm consider myself not a heavy user and I am getting 4:30 SOT consistently. Auto brightness, cellular data is always on if wifi is not present, Still I'm very pleased with this result. I will test lower resolution at some time.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] mikelt89:
I'm getting around 5H SOT average, mostly on wifi\cellurar data on but it rather more depends on how bright your keep your screen while in use, overall it last for the day and that's enough for me since I'll probably charge at the end of the day anyway.

Edit: Today I've manged to get over 6 hours SOT, but the phone died quickly from 25% - 3% when I was outside and brightness was 100%, so it all depends on your use and screen brightness.

New update increased battery life

Battery life has increased tremendously after the latest update in India. Opr1.170623.032. I can finally use 1440p+AOD for a whole day without carrying a power bank.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] ayansahalive:
I still have android 8.0 and Feb 2019 security patch. But I am getting considerably more battery life than I used to. The update was a bit weird, it restarted the phone and installed in fastboot mode. Not like previous updates, which ran the background and asked you to reboot to take effect-(a/b partition)

What are your settings? I've set it to full HD, Screen off at 15 secs, Auto Brightness on, Ambient display off, Sync off and still do not cross 4 hours and sometimes not even 3 hours (when out for long hours in sunny climate as display squeezes the entire juice). Now I've turned on the medium battery saver and nothing greatly improved. At last I installed Greenify yesterday.

I have everything turned on. I generally charge my phone when im at work. About an hour of whatsapp, 5 to 6 phone calls, 30-40mins of youtube, another half an hour of music playback.. may be some pics now and then.. that's about it.. i get through the day and night.. the nxt day im left with close to 15-20% before i charge.. i sometimes use my lenovo thinkpad charger to charge my phone.. coz its usb c and it fits.. I've got no complains.. it's only when im out on vacations that i carry a powerbank.. videos drain quite a lot of charge..
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] nitishreddyk:
Your usage very very less. Mine would be like around 2 hours calling, around 100 - 125 texts and WhatsApp, around 20 pictures. Normally Pixel 2 have me extremely good battery both on Oreo and Pie like 4.5 hours easily and consistently. G7 is very inconsistent.

---------- Post added at 11:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 AM ----------

What's the screen on time you're getting and what would be your usage be like? I've turned everything off like sync off , AOD off, no dual sim, full HD. Still I fail to make it to the end of day on single charge. Barely around 3.5 hours and that too inconsistent. Now I've activated battery saver (medium).
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] ayansahalive:
Yes..true, for heavy usage one should probably use a snapdragon 600 series phone...i had a moto x4 and it lasted more than a day with this kind of use.. I don't spend more than 3 -3.5 hrs a day on a phone on a weekday.. weekends probably require some more juice.. g7 looks good and its fast and durable and it gets me through my day.. i have no complains...
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Ace42:
I've had the G7 for a few days as DD to temporarily replace my S10+. Battery life doesn't measure up but it's tolerable. Idle drain is higher than any phone I've used in recent years (not depicted in screenshot). Please keep in mind that the dac was enabled.

All in all, for 3000mah these numbers are actually good. Pie can't come soon enough...
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Ace42:
Seeing an uplift in runtime after making a myriad of changes. Idle drain remains a weak point, however. I have noticed a bug where the G7 doesn't correctly track time in apps, and omits others altogether.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] OnceAMatrixMan:
Changes such as?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] :

[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Maverick Honor:
My battery health according to acubattery and Antuntu has degraded around 20 percent one year of use. Any body experiencing the same degradation ? Is it because of my usage pattern which is moderate.? But yes I always charge it to full so that it can last a full day..as the battery capacity itself is on the lower side as compared to other flagship phones.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Ali Mirza:
My underrated beast was purchased last September, this September it is now 84% , the battery life is even better on Pie, I get close to 6 Hours of SOT, the app states I get to 5h 47m, sometimes 5h 20m which is amazing, before upgrading to Pie, Oreo OS was abysmal, only 4 hours of SOT. Pie OS is insane.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Siley:
After 21 months of usage (+ last 8 months used as LTE-A hotspot every day) it a time for replacement battery. New original battery is very cheap and cost around $12 so why not. SOT was around 4,5h.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] GreenSpace95:
Hey did you change the battery and how great would be again like in old days ? How about screen on time with new battery ?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Siley:
Not really same as new phone (i should do factory reset too but i dont want) but is much better. SOT i cant tell you because when i can i will put phone to charger. According to the accubattery, the real capacity is 2850mA. Thats is good, because LG G7 dont have 3000mA but only 2890 - 3000A. My old battery had as new 11,28Wh on 3,85V thats about 2930mA.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] BasicallyCP:
Side note: according to the internal predictions (referring the "battery saver" statistics) of the device, the enabled always-on-display only causes a lack of some 30 minutes in a 24h period, so it seems like the impact is rather small.

Regarding other predictions, the display brightness and background data are the main drivers for achieving longer or shorter standby times while disabled vibration does save more than a disable AOD but still only gives you an extra hour or so. Now, disabled background data adds 5 or 6h. This, however, comes at a cost since even email push notices won't get through.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Jeopardy:
Personally I keep the background data always disabled, but I have added those apps into exceptions whose data I actually care about (gmail, hangouts, google play services and android wear). With these exceptions, the email push notifications and hangouts messages come through normally. Not sure how much battery I save, but I like the control this gives me over apps and what they are doing in the background.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] LadySarah:
It may sound a silly question but have patient...

According to you at what percentage I have to worry abot the drain?

Before the first update during the night I noticed that the battery never discharged (with Wi-Fi, Data and BT off). After the first update (to be clear the one that introduces the vertical icon for screen rotation) I noticed that the battery during the night discharges 3-5% that it's kind of accectable (Wi-Fi, Data, BT off). I've it may be the phone signal but it's always the same.

Same numbers:

Phone idle 20%

Screen 4%

Android System 2%

Mobile network standby 1%

Android OS 1%

Some apps

Instagram 6%

WhatsApp 6%

Google Play Store 3%

Google Play Services 1% for now. In the previous recharge circle it was 22%

Thank u in advance
[LG G7 ThinQ  Real Life Review] Erpinoob:
My phone always looses between 2% and 5% of battery overnight, with airplane mode and battery saver enabled (not in extreme mode though). I consider normal and acceptable values between 0% and 6/7% during a standby of 7 or more hours.

I've got my G7 for a few weeks, came from Xperia XZ Premium.

I don't charge my phone overnight, usually charge it to around 90% before sleep.

With my XZP the phone would use around 5% or less over night (About 6-8 hours give or take)

But my G7 would use at least 10% overnight

First thing I notice with G7 is that the battery life isn't as good as my XZP

At night before bed. I give it a full charge. I then turn off wifi, bluetooth gps, and data.. Wake up in morning down only 3 percent. I always trun off stuff I do not use. If I'm at home, and primarily on the computer, all that stuff is shut off.
