The LG V40 ThinQ ticks most boxes for a premium flagship, including a gorgeous display, stunning design, capable cameras, and a day-long battery life.

The LG V40 ThinQ ticks most boxes for a premium flagship, including a gorgeous display, stunning design, capable cameras, and a day-long battery life. That said, it feels slightly overpriced for its asking price of Rs 50K, especially considering you can get the G7+ ThinQ – which, crudely put, is basically the same phone - for Rs 20K less. Add to that the smartphone`s outdated software, subpar gaming performance, and the fact that newer devices with better SoCs are just around the corner, the V40 ThinQ doesn`t come across as a steal, as some of its predecessors did. In fact, LG`s next flagship, the G8 ThinQ is expected to be unveiled in just a few days, but it`s anyone`s guess when it`ll make its way to India.If the brand can bring the cost of the V40 ThinQ down, it would make for a worthy daily driver for most. Hopefully, the price of the phone would come down in some time, or maybe they`ll be some deals available on it soon. As things stand currently, I feel that the LG V40 ThinQ has come a little too late, at a price which isn`t too competitive to make an impact in the Indian market.
