LG G7 ThinQ 6.1in LM-G710TM TMobile 64GB Android Smartphone (Renewed) (Platinum Gray)

I spent many hours looking at review videos and looking closely at the specs on the Samsung S9 and the OnePlus 6 but this phone had all that I wanted and it was a great price. I was worried buying a refurbished phone but the price was worth the risk and I do not regret doing that. The phone came in a general box(well protected though) and only included the phone and a charger(which wasn't a fast charger and was Samsung branded). I didn't mind since I bought a fast charger later on. The speaker is great, fast, modern and feels really nice and sturdy. I have no complaints especially for the price. If you want a flagship phone will all the newest and greatest things but do not want to be like other people to happily pay over $1,000 for a phone, you will not be disappointed with this phone. If you want a phone that has 1 megapixel better quality, then go buy another phone but if that is the least of your issues, this is the one. **Update** It has been 4 months with the phone and it still is flawless. I even accidently took a swim with it and it still going strong. Forget paying $800 more for a similar phone. Its a shame stores like T Mobile and Beat Buy never advertise phones like these because they could save people the hassle of a 2 year payment plan 😒

Packaging was white box, no manuals, just a generic charger and 3' USB C cable and a card telling how to get installation help and tech support from Amazon for 90 days. Charger is a higher amp quick charge type. Also included a pin to pop open the SIM card slot. Phone itself was perfect, no scratches or dings at all. Put my T-Mobile SIM card and SD card in new phone and then upgrading from my LG G6 via wifi was a snap, just followed instructions for both phones to transfer data and it just flat worked. One upgrade to Android current version later and it was up and running perfectly. Speed wise, I loved my G6 but busted the screen finally and was about the same cost to upgrade or fix it so I went the upgrade route. G8 or some other 5G phone was too expensive and 5G is too new to go with it yet anyhow. Google 5G limitations to see why the time for it isn't yet for me, too bleeding edge. I'm usually on GB ethernet wifi at home so 5G doesn't matter to me. Only issue I had was SwftKey keyboard app didn't work and EverNote didn't transfer for reasons unknown. Reinstalled SwftKey (best $0.99 I ever spent) and it worked. Installed EverNote and it had all my notes in place. I guess it picked them up from the SD card. Speed wise, I didn't expect it to be that much faster than my G6, but was very surprised at the speed difference between the two. My G6 had an early snap dragon processor, so it's I guess two gens back from this G7 and that makes a huge difference. I went on swapa and this phone does not show up as stolen or blacklisted in any way. I did that first as if it was, I would have gone no further and returned it immediately. Overall, had no issues and recommend this phone from and this vendor, Amazon Renewed. I only buy refurbished stuff directly from Amazon, no other vendors because of warranty service and no quibble returns.

Pro's about this phone: Compared to a LG V20. $140 It's an Amazon Renewed phone, it arrived in a plain white box with a LG Fast charger charger and USB C cable. It also arrived with a scratch on the back 1" long but not very deep. The case I bought will take care of that. Other than that, it looks new, screen and corners are perfect. The battery lasts over 2 days but I'm not a power user This phone is fast and responsive approx. 30% faster than my LG V20. Snap Dragon 845 vs 820. It boots up 30 seconds faster vs the V20. It's a slick looking phone but, definitely get a case for this, it's slippery because of the glass back. Con's about this phone: I miss the flip cover option my V20 has, but this doesn't. Larger screen seems smaller than my V20, Screen is 6.1" but It feels like it's smaller than the V20's 5.7" screen, due to phone being narrower. There are many new features on this phone that will take some time to explore, but I feel most won't be used by me because I like simple designed things that are fast to use. It's a nice phone but wished I waited 1 week to buy it because it's $10 less. Bottom line: You don't need to spend a lot of $$ to get a previous generation $750 flagship phone. (you can buy a new one for under $300)

I had a Samsung S7 Edge that had been a great phone, but the battery was not holding a charge more than 5-6 hours. I investigated online and to replace the battery with one that was the same quality as the OEM item, I would have to pay $90. Or I could use the $90 toward a different phone. I had been looking at reviews of the idea of purchasing what was a flagship phone just 1-2 years ago, but now recently severely discounted or refurbished/renewed. I have been hesitant to purchase renewed products like this, but my employer has purchased tablets, monitors, and video cameras like this and has never needed to return anything. I became sick with a longterm illness recently and I did not like the idea of missing medically related calls due to poor battery life, but did not want to buy a $650-800 phone right now. I decided this LG G7 ThinQ would be a stop-gap item for now and I would purchase something better in a few months. And if I had a problem, it was going back in 72 hours. I have changed my plans, I will not be considering another phone for at least a couple years when I want a 5G phone. The phone I received is in incredible shape. It looked like somebody might have kept it in their front pocket without a case for a couple weeks, and nothing more. I had to use the magnifying glass app from the old phone to see any marks on the metal banding, zero faults on both glass sides. The S7 Edge and this phone are almost identical in dimensions when you lay them on each other, but this one has a better display and the display has more real estate. LG allowed 99% of what was on the other phone to come over configured correctly. The phone kept asking to do app and security updates. In all there were 5-6 updates necessary to bring the phone up to speed. One of those updates included Android 9.0, and brought the phone current with the Dec. 1 2019 security patch. After one was done, it was not immediately apparent that there would be additional updates waiting. Just know that if you are a quarter of a year or more behind, be sure to check ten minutes after the last update for your phone to see if it offers another. Checking with the Antutu app found no dead pixels and the battery capable of holding 92% of its original charge (2796 mAh vs 3000 mAh new). I have no problem getting a full day of work out of the phone, but do charge it when on the road. Mentioning driving, the Google Assistant summoning button is fast and what I use to start navigation while I hook up and mount the phone. I like this feature a lot. This phone is very loud and I prefer this to having stereo speakers that don't have good volume and presence. The camera and all other features keep surprising me (in good ways) as I have gotten around to trying them out. My wife is surprised I settled on "an old used phone," but this one looks great and is a good performer. The mismatched charger and cable are fine and work fast. I am using previously owned fast chargers at home and in my car with the USB cord I purchased along with the phone. I have the other set in my travel bag as spares. This was a great purchase. I have chosen the heavier Spigen case that still has a kickstand for protection.

Had some scratches on the screen. Huge problem: When typing in gmail, every time I touch the screen, there is a crackling sound for as long as my finger is touching the screen. It's like feedback through the speakers. This indicates there are voltage differences in the chips that should not be present. I'm returning this phone. It was otherwise good, but one electrical issue in the hardware can lead to catastrophic failure down the road. For $200 I expect a phone with no issues. This is way overpriced considering I bought an (refurbished) lg g7 in feb 2020 for $70 less than what they are charging now in Sept 2020, unfortunately broken in motorcycle accident.

I bought this phone to replace a LG G3 6 weeks ago. I activated it with a TMobile-compatible Tracfone SIM card, transferring my minutes, text and data from my old phone. (It took Tracfone about 20 min. to solve activation issues on their end, but they finally got it right.) I love the phone: it is faster than the old one, runs a newer version of Android (9). TMobile seems to keep rolling out security patches, which is something AT&T didn't seem to do with the old phone. One of the things I like is that you can enable the battery saving mode all the time (in the old G3 you needed to be at 15% of battery to kick in), and you can customize two different battery saving modes. Because I like the phone to automatically adjust the screen brightness, but I don't need it as bright as it sets it by default, I can set the maximum brightness to 80%. With this setting the screen is more than bright enough, and it helps extend the battery life big time. In all, I can go through 3 days with moderate use (not much internet surfing) and still have 50% of battery remaining. The screen resolution is also great, and you can even lower it to extend battery life without affecting the appearance too much. The fingerprint unlocking is a great feature, compared to a PIN; a lot faster. Overall, this phone is a great value for the money. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Overall, this phone is as described, so 3 stars. It would have gotten 4 stars, but whoever replaced the display did a sloppy job: there is obvious shadowing at the bottom of the display caused by uneven pressure, inadequate removal of the original adhesive, or careless application of the new adhesive. The tech was probably being pressured to do it quickly, and that shows. Other than that, it's great, and these are mistakes that I have made myself when repairing a phone. The box contained the phone, a USB-C cable, a charger module, and the key to open the SIM holder. No earbuds are included, but I consider that above/beyond on a refurb. The LG G7 is an excellent phone/camera/media player/workstation, but that's not really what gets reviewed in a refurb'ed device IMO. It's expected to be all the things that device is, and the refurbishment work is what gets reviewed.

I transferred the data from another LG phone to this one, and at first, that burned through 15% of the battery in 90 minutes, so I was concerned. However, that was an intensive process, and the next day by 6PM I still had 60% of the battery left, so my concerns that I'd need to charge it during the work day were unfounded. That was my major concern, how much battery (so to speak) would be left on a used phone. Other than that, you get aftermarket accessories (a charger and USB C cable), but the phone I received looked new and one of the 3 updates I got from T-mobile within the first 24 hours was an upgrade to Android 9. This phone (after having it just a few days) is an outstanding value. My previous phone was a LG Q7+, and that's a perfectly fine phone, but this thing is fast by comparison. Very satisfied so far. Everything has worked (T-mobile connection, WiFi, NFC, Bluetooth, charger) as expected as if new. Make sure you have T-mobile, this is not an unlocked phone.

El el está desbloqueado y tiene estética de 9-9.5 solo detalles en el marco pero leves, él rendimiento es genial, mejor que los gama media que rondan por ese precio, fornite lo corre en calidad épica y 3D al 100% habrá pequeños lags pero es jugable( será por la app hay apks modificadas que funcionan en 60fps) también genshin Impact lo corre bien en calidad muy alta. Se calienta pero no mucho, buen cel para juegos. La batería no dura mucho con los juegos ya que no es muy grande ya que la pantalla es 2k solo eso es lo malo :c Fuera de eso esta increíble, los accesorios no los ocupé pero se ven bien, son Samsung

Excelente equipo, prácticamente nuevo solo un ligerísimo rayón en la parte trasera, funciona a la perfeccion. Mi primer equipo renewed y me sorprendió gratamente. Muy bien embalado, cargador quick charge de Samsung y cable generico.

Lo compré con la tienda INNOVA LOHER y llegó en una linda caja de cartón que incluía cargador Samsung con QC 2.0 su cable usb-C y obviamente el G7, mi versión tiene una rom de Android 8 limpia que al parecer es la que usa Sprint, no se puede actualizar a Android 10 vía OTA, pero se puede flasher la rom actualizada. Lo he usado con unefon y Telcel, en Telcel hasta el momento no me funcionan los datos pero sí tengo señal para hacer y recibir llamadas, todo lo demás del sistema sin problemas. El teléfono físicamente tiene una estética 9.5 de 10, la pantalla presenta unos pequeños rayones que no se ven a menos que los estés buscando con la pantalla apagada y a contra luz, en los marcos de metal igual solo unos pequeños rayones, nada grave ni que afecte su hermoso diseño. El ponerle un protector a este teléfono es obligado pues es muy resbaloso al tacto y así evitar daños en este bello terminal. Para concluir una excelente relación calidad/precio, el teléfono funciona de maravilla, muy fluido y sin problemas de rendimiento, lo único que tal vez les presente una dificultad es la batería "pequeña" de 3000 mha, la cual puede parecer poco pero es de muy buena calidad y da unas 6 horas de pantalla en función del uso. Lo volvería a comprar sin duda. ACTUALIZACIÓN: He iniciado el proceso de devolución debido a qué cómo ya mencioné, no tengo datos con Telcel y además el sistema operativo (Android8) ha tenido fallas en el cierre constante de varias aplicaciones (App de varios bancos, algunos juegos y otras) debido a esto me veo en la necesidad de devolverlo.

Excelente equipo llego en muy buenas condiciones impecable liberado totalmente lo uso con telcel con muy buena señal muy fluido no se de que compañia proviene pero no tiene ninguna aplicacion externa completamente formateado muy buena compra lo recomiendo ampliamente
