LG has positively seen higher days and has been largely outpaced by its rivals in lots of key features of the cellular market. It has, nonetheless, nonetheless held strongly to some traits, like its capability and braveness to make dangerous improvements in need of foldable phones and its audio acumen. Sadly, these might not be sufficient to maintain it from sliding down even additional, particularly when its most prized audio options on the LG G8 ThinQ might not be lower out for the job.

The LG G8 ThinQ launched two new audio options to the company’s high-end lineup. First is the Crystal Sound OLED know-how or CSO, virtually LG’s personal model of “under-screen” speaker first seen within the Xiaomi Mi Combine. After which there’s the Boombox Speaker characteristic that makes use of the insides of the G8 as a resonance chamber to generate stronger bass.

In keeping with DxOMark’s audio evaluation, nonetheless, these options may very well trigger worse efficiency or no less than don’t assist in any means. Bass was famous to be virtually nonexistent whereas the midrange was canny. Distortion can be widespread particularly at larger volumes and could also be brought on by the CSO’s small speaker, a.ok.a. exciter, behind the display.

Recording didn’t fare any higher, mirroring audio playback’s lack of bass and canny mids. Spatial audio does work as marketed and the LG G8 may also file at max quantity with little distortion. These, nonetheless, might not be sufficient to salvage the phone’s efficiency on each accounts.

LG launched its CSO and Boombox applied sciences to make up for the dearth of an earpiece speaker and, due to this fact, the chance to have stereo audio system. Collectively, they provide some sensible conveniences, like how audio isn’t utterly occluded by the consumer’s arms. Sadly, the LG G8 ThinQ lands simply two steps above the underside of DxOMark’s heap, elevating issues that LG’s audio prowess might have began to fade.
