It may have retired from the smartphone business, but LG, as a serious company that it is, proves not to neglect the customers who trusted it by purchasing one of the latest products marketed. So, after LG V50 ThinQ, to receive stable Android 12 is LG G8X ThinQ, with a rollout that in recent days started in India and is now spreading to other regions of the world, including Europe.
We have no news of the rollout in Italy (indeed, if you have any, we invite you to share them in the comments), but it seems that the pace of distribution has increased in the past few hours, so it should only be a matter of time. The update to Android 12 for the LG G8X ThinQ brings with it the June 2022 patch. However, in case you are impatient to try Android 12, you can try the installation via LG Bridge, even if the file size (about 5 GB) requires a fairly fast and stable Wi-Fi connection.
This should be the latest update important for a smartphone that was presented in August 2019 with Android 9 Pie and which thus reaches the third major release of Android. During the month spent in his company and with his Dual Screen as standard, LG G8X ThinQ highlighted a display of excellent quality, high-level performance and a great autonomy.
Among the cons we highlighted one some slowness on the part of LG in keeping his smartphone updated, and if in the long run the company has not changed pace (Android 12 arrives a few months after stable Android 13), the fact remains that Android 12 is the third major update for the product, which has arrived despite disengagement from the sector. Not fast, but by word of mouth.
