LG today unwrapped its latest “Q series” smartphones, the Q7, Q7+ and Q7α, in Korea. The new successors of the Q6 series that was launched last year comes with the same display, but packed a more powerful processor. There are minor upgrades in RAM, storage capacity and the overall hardware, but major upgrades only occur in software.
The Q7+ for instance supports HiFi Quad DAC for quality audio and it is the only one in the group that sports a 16MP rear camera, which its predecessor lacked. The phones earned MIL-STD 810G military certification for their rugged design and are IP68 waterproof and dustproof certified. Speaking of software, the Q7, Q7+ and Q7α supports DTS X:3D Surround Sound and HiFi audio, and also features LG proprietary QLens AI which is embedded in the camera software.
