Review on LG G8 ThinQ Platinum Verizon by Srinivas Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

In fact, this is the new flagship of 2019 at a low price. and unlocked

I won't consider the LG G8 itself - I think it competes with most other flagships, but I wanted a phone without a curved screen and that isn't huge, which is becoming harder and harder to find these days. As for the renovation, it was in excellent condition. I haven't noticed anything negative after a few days of use. Additionally, the phone was originally activated in October 2019 and factory reset in November 2019. So not only was it in mint condition as a likely buyer return, it was unlocked as Verizon unlocks their phones 60 days after original purchase. I suspect almost all of this "refurbished" stock will be in the same situation (first time customer test + retailer selling returned unit to remanufacturer + refurbisher selling >60 days at Revain in most cases). So I didn't even have to switch to Verizon, I just put in my Verizon MVNO SIM card and it worked. Fantastic value compared to most other options at the moment, especially if you want a flat screen. Very satisfied. Will update the review if I find any issues.

Pros
  • There are few competitors
Cons
  • I don't remember, but there was something
