The BEST SMARTPHONES we saw at MWC 2019

The LG G8 ThinkQ is a smartphone that boasts some impressive features, including its incredibly quick wireless charging system. The phone's battery can be recharged wirelessly using a 20-watt power source, which is significantly faster than other wireless charging systems on the market. According to LG, this means that the phone can be fully recharged in just over an hour and 40 minutes. This is a testament to the phone's capabilities, making it one of the fastest wireless charging devices available.

The LG G8 ThinkQ also features a beautiful design, with a lavender-colored version that showcases the phone's stunning Gorilla Glass 6 on both the back and front of the device. The phone's six point four OLED screen is another impressive feature, providing an immersive visual experience for users. With its sleek design and powerful specs, the LG G8 ThinkQ is a solid option for those looking for a reasonably priced smartphone.

One of the most exciting features of the LG G8 ThinkQ is its innovative Air Gesture control system. This system uses the phone's camera to detect hand gestures, allowing users to activate various functions such as opening apps and playing music. The system is also capable of recognizing specific gestures, such as pausing or changing volume levels. While it may not be a feature that users will use every day, it's a clever example of LG's commitment to innovation.

In addition to its Air Gesture control system, the LG G8 ThinkQ also features an oversized version of this technology, which is designed to be used in interactive games and other applications. This larger screen takes advantage of the phone's 21 by 9 aspect ratio display, providing a wider viewing experience that can be beneficial for gaming and video consumption.

The LG G8 ThinkQ has a large six point one inch OLED screen on the front, which is designed to provide an immersive visual experience for users. The phone itself is also quite sizable, but it's surprisingly light and comfortable to hold. On the rear of the device, there are three camera lenses, including a 12-megapixel main lens, a wide-angle lens, and a telephoto lens. There is also a fingerprint scanner underneath the device.

Inside the LG G8 ThinkQ is a Snapdragon 855 processor, paired with six gigabytes of RAM and up to 512 gigabytes of storage. The phone also features Sony's long-lasting Stamina mode, which provides a boost in battery life. Additionally, the phone has Dolby Atmos sound, providing an immersive audio experience for users.

Another exciting development at MWC 2019 is the announcement of the world's first 4K OLED smartphone, the Xperia 1 from Sony. This device boasts a stunning 21 by 9 aspect ratio display, which provides a unique viewing experience that can be beneficial for multitasking and cinematic visuals. The phone's six point eight inch screen allows for more content to be displayed at once than on smaller screens.

The Xperia 1 also features an impressive camera system, with three lenses including a wide-angle lens, a zoom lens, and a standard main lens. These cameras are capable of shooting in RAW format and offer advanced noise reduction and image processing capabilities. The phone's image processing engine has been designed to produce increased brightness, color, and contrast, resulting in a more cinematic visual experience.

The Xperia 1 also features an innovative video recording system that takes advantage of its 21 by 9 aspect ratio display. This system allows users to create professional-looking films with ease, using advanced camera controls and editing capabilities. The phone's Dolby Atmos sound system provides an immersive audio experience, allowing users to fully engage with their content.

The Xperia 1 is expected to be released in the spring of 2019, although no official pricing has been announced yet. With its impressive features and specs, this smartphone is sure to generate a lot of excitement among tech enthusiasts and professionals alike.
