LG G8 may feature teardrop notch, 3D camera, and no 5G

While the Android smartphone market appears to be moving away from the notch design as we head into 2019, LG won’t be making the jump just yet according to a new report.

ET News is reporting that the next flagship smartphone from the Life’s Good crew is going to be called the G8 and it will have teardrop notch at the top of its screen, similar to what we’ve seen from OnePlusand Essential in the past. The LG G8 will allegedly launch with a 3D camera system as well.

Unfortunately that’s all we know about the handset at this point. The handset will reportedly launch at the end of March, though, so the wait isn’t going to be too much longer.

And if you were hoping 5G would be on board, well, you can stop. According to the report, LG is planning on launching a separate device at some point later in 2019 that will have 5G connectivity. It won’t have the G-series label on it, either.

So that’s what we have on the upcoming G8 so far. Not much! It will more than likely be a flagship handset when it does arrive, though. How it stacks up against the likes of the Galaxy S10 will certainly be exciting.
