so LG has a new smartphone the LG e g7 think you for the g7 think or something like that this is the raspberry Rose version which actually looks pretty unique it has a softer more elegant tone to it definitely not the in-your-face read brilliance of the 1 plus 6 but still subtly impressive my mom has been using the LG G 6 for the last year and I could totally see her rocking a color like this we aren't here to ogle though let's get started right off the bat I get a warning from the phone telling me not to remove the battery like that's even an option the phone is sealed shut and ip68 so it's not like a battery removal is gonna happen on accident I guess the phone just knows who's holding it but don't worry little guy we won't dissect you yet that's the next video LG is using Gorilla Glass 5 on their g7q Corning Gorilla Glass is on every major smartphone these days which is fine with me it's consistent and as shatter resistant as glass can be still scratches at level 6 which we've come to expect with the deeper grooves at a level 7 LG has given us a notch this year which personally I have no strong feelings one way or the other it is what it is the sensors and front 8 megapixel camera are all covered by that same Gorilla Glass 5 our earpiece is made from metal and very securely attached to the phone it's it's totally flush with a glass surface no buttons down at the bottom of the phone but we do have an extra button on the side the sides are made for metal as well as the upper volume button and the lower volume button both metal our newest friend down here is a dedicated Google Assistant button kind of cool I personally would still prefer a Mew slider or the ability to change the function of the button if I wanted I'd probably use a dedicated camera button more often than I would a voice assistant it's still better than a permanent Bigsby though so I'm not complaining too much at the bottom of the phone we have our headphone jack which is awesome for functionality thumbs up for that and a USB C port over on the far side of the g7 it's pretty empty except for a lone power button which is indeed an actual clicky button and not just decoration like HTC has been using and finally up here at the top of the phone you have a little microphone hole and our dual SIM card tray which includes an SD card slot as well nice work moving around to the backside of the phone the g7 thinkyou branding is permanent and under the glass so it won't be coming off to be honest this is really an amazing looking phone mum if you want an unscratched g7 upgrade I'm sure we can work out some kind of homemade chocolate chip cookie exchange program she watches all my videos the laser autofocus and flash are protected under that glass no issues there the 16 megapixel main camera lens is also protected with glass as well as the wide-angle camera lens right below it it's nice having two cameras that accomplish different things there is a little metal lip around the camera lens and it all sits relatively flush with the back panel the fingerprint scanner is slightly recessed and can be damaged I kind of like to see how much abuse phones can handle so we get an idea of what they can realistically survive in real life and luckily even with this damage the LG G 7 fingerprint scanner still functions perfectly no complaints the back panel is still made from glass harder than my razor blade which makes our class with cherry impossible but the bird test is still an option LG used a 1440p 6.1 inch IPS LCD this time lasting about 7 seconds out of the flame which isn't as long as most but still longer than some if you look closely you can see me grasping at reasons for this test but the screen still recovers - the evaporated oleophobic coating of course structure and build quality are important if you want your phone to last a while without expensive each phone is these days you don't want to buy a fragile one the bin test shows us how well the phone is constructed and with this LG g7 there's hardly any flex from the front or the back of the phone plus the back panel is still secured with that water resistance intact nothing is separating it has an impressive build with that headphone jack Google assistant and unflexible let's see what I did there yeah I'm pretty hilarious coming out with me on Twitter and Instagram and thanks a ton for watching I'll see you around
