LG G8 ThinQ Pre-Orders a Go Through Select Retailers, Deals Aplenty to be Had

-

Pre-orders for the G8 ThinQ from LG have begun at select carriers and retailers. LG announced this week that the phone would retail for $820, but in what can only be seen as an act of desperation to move units quickly, there shouldn’t be any need to pay that much for the device given the instant savings taking place.

Through carriers like AT&T, you can score the phone for as little as free, and on top of that, get a $200 Visa Rewards card. Yes, you’ll have to sign up for an AT&T Next plan and have a wireless plan that costs more than $50/month, and order the phone online, but a free phone is a free phone, folks.

If you hate payment plans, which I completely empathize with, T-Mobile will be your best bet. Once its pre-orders begin on April 5, you will be able to purchase the phone for $200 off at $619. There are no hidden requirements or anything. That’s straight savings.

Verizon pre-orders begin April 1 and it has a solid deal, too. In fact, a deal that’s worth a total of $1,000 if done in just a certain way. Here are the details.

  • Get up to $450 off a new LG G8 when trading in your smartphone and adding a new line (existing customers get $200 when you trade in your old phone and upgrade to a LG G8).
  • Receive a $200 prepaid Mastercard when you switch to Verizon and purchase a new LG G8 on a Verizon device payment plan and activate the phone on an eligible Verizon unlimited plan.
  • Get $350 off a new LG G8 when you purchase it on a Verizon device payment plan and activate a new line.
    • All three offers can be combined for savings up to $1,000.

Lastly, if you don’t want to mess with carriers, you simply buy the unlocked G8 ThinQ from Best Buy for $650 or from B&H for $699. I wish I could tell you why there seems to be such fluctuation in the price, but really, the important thing is that no one should have to spend $800+ on this phone.

Motorola’s foldable Razr phone may be announced before year’s end

-
While Samsung’s saga with the Galaxy Fold appears to finally be coming to an end , there are other foldables destined to be released soon. The Huawei Mate X is the other big name, but it has been delayed a couple of times as well. The other foldable device that we’ve heard about a few times is the rumored Motorola Razr reboot, and a new report claims an announcement is coming this year still. Earlier this year, reports suggested Motorola would launch its foldable phone this summer. That time has come and gone without a peep from Motorola, but a new report claims it’s still coming this year. This information comes from a person close to the company speaking to CNET . It’s unlikely that the device will actually be sold this year, but we should at least see the device before 2020. Motorola has already confirmed that they are working on a foldable smartphone. The “Razr” name was also confirmed by a Bluetooth certification. We exclusively reported on the specifications of the device ,...

Behind Dynamic System Updates in Android Q: How Google is using Project Treble to improve future Android releases

-
Image
Alongside the release of Android 8.0 Oreo, Google unveiled Project Treble : a major rearchitecting in the way the Android OS framework and the vendor HALs and Linux kernel communicate. Treble is a major initiative designed to reduce Android platform version and security patch fragmentation , and all Android-branded devices launching with Android Pie are required to support Project Treble. OEMs and vendors test Treble compatibility by booting a Generic System Image (GSI)—a pure stock build of Android from AOSP—and passing the Vendor Test Suite (VTS) and Compatibility Test Suite-on-Generic System Image (CTS-on-GSI). The GSI has proven useful in not only allowing software engineers working for OEMs test Treble compatibility, but it has also opened the door for a large custom ROM community on XDA. For the Android Q release, Google wants to make GSIs useful for another group: app developers. Since the first stable release and source code drop of any given Android platform release usual...
