The best LG G8 ThinQ cases to safeguard your smartphone

Add as a preferred source on Google

If your new LG G8 ThinQ smartphone clashes with the concrete, your phone probably isn’t going to come out on top. The impressive OLED display on the ThinQ deserves to be protected by a durable, stylish case that will safeguard it from spills and impacts.

Luckily, there are plenty of sleek, shock-absorbing cases on the market for the LG G8 ThinQ. We’ve listed a handful of our favorite cases for the ThinQ below.

Incipio DualPro Case

The first big name manufacturer to come up with a really rugged protective case for the LG G8 ThinQ was Incipio. The DualPro is a classic combination of flexible, shock-absorbing material on the inside with a hard, scratch-resistant polycarbonate shell on the outside. No need to worry about drops or bumps when your G8 ThinQ is wearing this. The cutouts are accurate and the chunky button covers are easy to find without looking. The trade-off with this case is that it adds considerable bulk. You can get it in black, blue, red and black, or rose gold and pink.

This simple, flexible, TPU case has carbon fiber accent panels and glossy lines to lend it a bit of visual interest. It fits the LG G8 ThinQ perfectly, with cutouts for the fingerprint sensor, camera, and ports. There are also tactile button covers and a raised lip around the screen. It’s slim, so it won’t interfere with wireless charging, but it should provide enough protection to banish any concern about minor drops or bumps.

Avidet Crystal Clear Case

If you love the look of your LG G8 ThinQ, then you may prefer not to cover it up. This Avidet case is a simple TPU offering that’s transparent, so you get the benefits of a thin layer of shock-absorbing protection without masking the design. It’s a simple case with openings for easy access to everything and thin button covers. There’s a very faint dot pattern that helps to prevent smudging, but other than that, this case is as plain as they come.

You can expect basic drop and bump protection from this TPU case, and there’s a raised edge around the screen on the front. The button covers are slim and the cutouts slope in and provide plenty of room for access. The leather texture on the back, complete with fake stitching, gives it a certain style, but it also enhances your grip. This case comes in black, blue, or a slightly garish red.

Ringke Fusion X Case

Here’s a tough case offering military-grade drop protection thanks to a tough TPU bumper with reinforced corners. The bumper extends over the front and back so no part of your G8 ThinQ should ever touch down. The back panel is clear polycarbonate to show off LG’s design. You’ll find generous openings for the camera, fingerprint sensor, and ports. There are also tactile button covers and a textured power button. This case comes in black, red, or blue.

Vibecoded apps are flooding Apple’s App Store, and users are getting sick of them
App Store submissions have doubled this year as AI tools make it easier than ever to build an app, but downloads haven't kept pace, and for good reason.

Apple's App Store is in the middle of its steepest submission surge in years. Developers submitted nearly 600,000 new apps last year, marking a 30 percent jump over the previous year. That number has already doubled to roughly 560,000 new apps in just the first six months of this year, according to estimates from analytics firm Sensor Tower cited by the New York Times. The reason behind the spike is vibecoding, which allows people with no prior development experience to create new apps using AI tools.

A familiar boom, with a twist

Google Photos adds a quick toggle between AI and classic search
Classic search is finally easier to reach for people who enabled Ask Photos
Google's Ask Photos debut.

Google Photos is giving users an easier way to leave its Gemini-powered search when a simple keyword would do. A new toggle now sits at the top of the results page, letting users switch between Ask Photos and classic search without digging through settings.

The change appears to address feedback from people who opted into Ask Photos but wanted a quicker way to return to classic search when Gemini was slower or less useful for a straightforward query.

Snapseed Camera now lets Android users save original photos and add geotags
Google updates Snapseed Camera with geotag support and non-destructive photo editing
Snapseed App

Google appears to be quietly turning Snapseed into something more than just a photo editing app. Over the past few weeks, the company has been steadily adding new capabilities to Snapseed Camera, its standalone camera app for Android. The latest update introduces two practical features that many smartphone users have come to expect from modern camera apps: the ability to save an untouched copy of every image for future editing and support for embedding location data directly into photos.

Neither feature is flashy, but together they make Snapseed Camera a more capable photography tool, particularly for users who like experimenting with filters without permanently altering their original shots. According to a report by 9to5Google, the features are rolling out with Snapseed Camera version 4.1.1.x on Android.
