While not exactly numerous, there is no severe dearth of Android One devices, at least outside the US. Here, it’s pretty much just down to last year’s Moto X4 variant and the few Nokia phones that have made it to these shores. There might be more coming, like the Motorola One Power, but Motorola might no longer have the show to itself. Some very curious Android fans may have discovered clues to what could be not only LG’s first Android One phone but also T-Mobile’s. It might, however, be an odd variant of an already existing phone, the newly-announced LG Q7.

Apple has already vindicated the stylus. At least on tablets. On smartphones, Samsung not only holds strong, it also mostly stands alone. Only one other manufacturer has even bothered to take up the challenge. LG’s Stylus/Stylo line, which now includes the newly announced LG Q Stylus, tries to offer a more affordable alternative to a Samsung Galaxy Note. But, depending on what you need that stylus for, you might find it makes too many compromises to meet that price point.

The LG G7 ThinQ smartphone is now available to buy in the United States.

LG has a very odd strategy this year. It delayed the launch of its flagship phone, the LG G7 ThinQ but has littered the market with LG V30 variants. And, not so surprisingly, it wasn't done yet. It just announced the LG V35 ThinQ, whose spec sheet looks eerily familiar. Compared to the V30 and V30S ThinQ, it's definitely an upgrade. But in light of the company's G series flagship, it is a confusing option that's almost telling users in their faces that they'll have to pay extra just to get rid of a much debated design.

The new LG V35 ThinQ will launch on AT&T in early June in the US, the carrier has confirmed, helping explain why it opted out of picking up the LG G7 ThinQ earlier this month. The new smartphone, latest in the company's V series, is closer to the G7 than the name would suggest, however.

This week the folks at Google and LG Display seem to have revealed their hand for the Pixel 3. Or at least the Pixel 3 XL, if not both the XL and the standard device, that is to say. According to a report from Digital Daily News reporter Shihwan Lee in South Korea, Google's next batch of displays for their next collection of phones is coming from LG Display, and it's already ordered.

The latest in LG's Android V series has broken cover, with the LG V35 ThinQ borrowing the AI-minded branding of its siblings along with the G7 ThinQ's twin camera setup. More important for some, there's also no notched display.

Amazon Alexa is continuing its dominance of all things IoT related by spreading to a new family of devices today. This time around, it's LG launching Alexa integration for its 2018 AI-enabled TVs. Specifically, the company says that Alexa will be available on 2018 OLED TVs and Super UHD TVs, or at least the ones that support the company's AI ThinQ platform.

Most US consumers still get their phones from carriers because of subsidies. It makes the purchase feel less expensive than it really is, even if the total is almost always a lot more than retail. OEMs and retailers have tried to come up with ways to wean buyers away from that tradition. Amazon's answer is the somewhat controversial Prime Exclusives phones, which now welcome the already budget-friendly LG K30 among its ranks.

While most people might have eyes on the incoming launch of the LG G7 ThinQ, today the company is also bolstering its mid-range Q line. LG has announced the Q7, which claims to further blur the line behind mid-range and high-end devices. In fact, there are three different models being announced today: The standard Q7, Q7α, and the Q7+.

The LG G7 ThinQ is on the horizon, which means that it's time for carriers to begin announcing the deals and promotions they'll offer on the phone. T-Mobile, like it does with a lot of flagship phones, revealed today that it'll be running a buy one, get one free promotion on the LG G7 ThinQ. While we've come to expect such promotions from T-Mobile, the pricing it's given the G7 ThinQ leaves us scratching our heads.

There were rumors that LG, like HTC, would be cutting down on its flagship devices this year. Apparently that's not entirely true. While LG has yet to actually show any sign of having something for later this year, like an LG V40, it isn't done with modifying last year's V series phone. After the LG V30 and the LG V30S ThinQ comes the LG V35 ThinQ. And if this leaked spec list is true, it's going to be an LG G7 ThinQ in a V30's clothing.
