It is an LG G8X Thinq


Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 855Image

Display: 6.4-inch, 2340 x 1080 pixels resolution OLED 19.5:9 aspect ratio (403 PPI)
Operating system: Android 9.0 Pie with LG UX 9.0 UI
RAM: 6GB
Storage: 128 internal with microSD expansion card slot
Cameras: 13MP super-wide (136 degrees) f/2.4 and 12MP rear f/1.8 cameras. 32MP f/1.9 front-facing camera.
Water resistance: IP68 water and dust rating
Shock resistance: MIL-STD 810G

Battery: 4,000mAh non-removable with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0

The best part is I can get a dual screen cover for it.

and yes, of course I am getting that too.

The phone was $215 on ebay in a B+ condition.
The dual screen case is like $130 or something but can you even put a price on such a thing?

The other phones that didn't make the cut include:
Galaxy A50
LG G7
Pixel 3A
S9
Note 9
Realme X2
Nokia 8.1
Mi 9

Lol you passed over at least 3 phones that are waaaay better.

That 6gb of ram is going to kill doing anything paired with Android Pie, unfortunately.

Prove what? That 6gb is shit? Or that the G7, S9, and Note 9 would have been better phones?

I could never play games like that with an onscreen controller. I just couldn't deal with it.

Back when iTouches came out Murderman had emulators and shit on them and, while yes it's pretty cool, I never thought was all that considering it was worse than playing on a PSP on broken controllers.

Yep. Just because it can doesn't mean you should.

Keep in mind you're constantly covering portions of the screen controlling it.


Not to mention to PSP cost over $100 less than an iTouch at the time and could do everything in terms of emulation the iTouch could.

transparent buttons are not that bad tbh n64 was lil stressfull but you can change it every which way and androids can accept a lot of different types of inputs that are far better than the on screen shits
