LG V50 ThinQ is the company’s first 5G smartphone

LG joins the 5G train with the official unveiling of the V50 ThinQ at this year’s MWC.

This, surprisingly, is just the V40 ThinQ released a few months back with updated hardware and new accessories to boot. The most surprising accessory is a second screen that can be attached to the phone for multiple functions — be it a keyboard, a game controller, or a second screen.]
