A lot of cool stuff streams through our Portland and NYC offices here at Digital Trends, but we seldom get to to share. Most of the lovely computers, phones, smartwatches, cameras, cars, headphones, speakers, tablets, and TVs we get to play with have to go straight back to the manufacturers. Today is different! We’re giving you a chance to win one of 10 brand-new LG G3 phones.

Updated on 7-24-2014 by Jeffrey Van Camp: Big thanks to everyone who entered. All winners were contacted.

To enter, just use the official entry form.

If you haven’t already studied our riveting LG G3 review, it may be our favorite new Android phone. Unlike the competing iPhone 5S, Galaxy S5, Sony Xperia Z2, and HTC One M8, the G3 packs a 1440p screen (higher than Full HD), an ultra-fast laser-focusing camera, and LG’s clever Knock Code, which lets you unlock your phone by tapping on the screen in a certain way. This is a $580 phone that usually costs $200 if you sign a two-year contract, but 10 lucky winners will get a shiny new one in the mail, courtesy of DT.

Started: July 14
Ended: July 18 at 11:59 p.m. PT

LG’s V50 ThinQ is a different take on the folding phone, and it supports 5G

The LG V50 ThinQ will be available from Verizon starting on June 20

LG V40 ThinQ Review

LG apparently couldn't help itself and decided to move up launch plans for its latest V-series flagship smartphone. Though V-series phones are typically released in the fall, the company has just announced the V50 ThinQ just five months after the LG V40 ThinQ released. It shares many of the same qualities with its very recent predecessor, but there's an unconventional addition that can turn it into a foldable phone, and the highlight is its ability to connect to 5G networks.

Didn't LG just launch another flagship smartphone? Yes, at MWC 2019, the company took the wraps off the LG G8 ThinQ, a follow-up to last year's LG G7 ThinQ. The new V50 carries a few of the same features as the new phone as well, and you can read more about the G-series phone in our full LG V50 review. But here's what the V50 ThinQ is all about.
5G!
The V50 ThinQ's marquee feature is the Qualcomm X50 modem inside the Snapdragon 855 processor, which means it can connect to 5G networks. That attribute is highlighted by the gaudy 5G logo on the back of the phone, which lights up in yellow (presumably because this phone will be launching on Sprint first).

Google Pixel 3a vs Nokia 7.1 vs Moto G7: Budget phones get better and better

google-pixel-3a-screen

While some of the best smartphones on the market cost $1,000 or more, you don't have to spend that much. Your choice of cheap phones is rapidly improving. There's no need for major compromises, because you can get a decent device for less than $400 now.

The Google Pixel 3a offers many of the headline features that you'll find in the Pixel 3, but at just $400 it's half the price. The Nokia 7.1 at $350 and the Moto G7 at $300 are also well worth considering. We decided to compare these three budget beauties to break down the differences and help you decide which bargain will suit you best.

These are the key settings to change on the LG G8 ThinQ smartphone

LG G8 ThinQ

Got an LG G8 ThinQ in your hands? There are plenty of settings you can tweak to personalize the phone a little more, but it can be tricky to wade through the cluttered user interface. We've done the job so you don't have to, and picked 11 key settings you will want to tweak as soon as you set the phone up.

As a note, there are two ways to access the settings app, which is what you'll be using for most of this guide. Either find the app on your home screen (or app drawer) -- the icon looks like a gear -- or swipe the notification drawer down and tap the gear icon at the very top right of the phone.
