LG V35 ThinQ Improves on an Already Feature Rich Predecessor

Barely a month after announcing its flagship G7 ThinQ, LG is back with another high-end phone, this time with comparatively fewer changes.
The new V35 ThinQ takes the same basic formula as the largely neglected V30S ThinQ, and gives it a boost when it comes to its internals. The rest of the package is otherwise similar.

Design and Display

LG V35 ThinQ Front Back
The design of the phone is still pretty much the same as G7 ThinQ, being built of metal, however, the lack of a notch is V35’s defining factor. The bezels are still quite slim, with the phone being IP68 and MIL-STD 810G-compliant, with the phone available in black and grey.

The OLED display measures 6” with a FullVision panel, coming with HDR10 support and QHD+ resolution. The audio is similarly enhanced through bundled B&O headsets, Quad DAC audio, and DTS:X with 7.1 surround sound.

Internals and Storage

This is where the phone itself differs from the V30S ThinQ, coming in with a Snapdragon 845 chip, instead of the 835. It has two quad-core Kryo core clusters, with 6 GB RAM, 64/128 GB worth storage.
The phone also retains the headphone jack, which would’ve been a terrible loss for audiophiles.

Camera(s)

The dual-camera setup on the back comes with a main 16 MP lens with OIS and phase-detection autofocus, while a secondary 13 MP lens will help you find the after-effect of your choice, including the Super Bright Camera mode.
The front camera is a relatively humbler 8 MP lens (the original phone only had a 5 MP one), though, it does support facial recognition and unlocking.

Battery

The battery capacity of the phone is set at 3300 mAh, while also coming with Quick Charge 3.0
Pricing of the phone is set at $900, though, without any obvious standouts, the V35 ThinQ might struggle to find its own place in the market. We’ll see what happens upon its launch in June.

PUBG Sues Fortnite Founders for Copying Battle Royale

GAMING Battle Royale is all the rage these days. PUGB founders have sued epic games for copying their battle royale formula. The gaming world is awash with players debating and comparing two of the major battle royale games right now, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (usually referred to as PUBG) and Fortnite, however, that could get much more intense in the future. As of latest, the founders of PUBG have sued Epic Games, the company behind Fortnite, for allegedly copying their take on the battle royale formula, as per its filings in a South Korean court. “We filed the suit to protect our copyright,” the company said in a statement released to Korea Times. Fortnite developer Epic Games is yet to release its response to the lawsuit. PUBG’s launch preceded that of Fortnite, being rolled out first in March 2017. Fortnite came much later in July of that year, though, its battle royale mode only came in September. However, as  The Verge  notes, P...
