LG G7 ThinQ: Price, availability, and release date (Update: Korea price confirmed)

LG G7 release date

The LG G7 ThinQ is finally here, and boy is this a nice phone. It's powered by the latest and greatest specs, has some killer new audio features, and some interesting improvements in the camera department. Want to know where you can buy the LG G7 ThinQ? Look no further.

Below you will find all of the LG G7 price and availability details we know so far. Of course, we'll be sure to update this article as more details trickle in. Without any further delay, let's jump right in!

LG G7 ThinQ price

Unfortunately, there's no word yet on the LG G7 ThinQ price in the US. We'll likely learn more details as we get closer to the official G7 release date, which we've detailed in the section below.

According to Etnews, G7 ThinQ's price in Korea has been set with the country's three main carriers at 899,800 won (~$833), while the G7 ThinQ Plus will cost 973,500 won (~$900).

The standard G7 ThinQ carries the same Korea price as the LG G6 did when it was released there last year; assuming LG chooses the same pricing strategy in the U.S., the G7 would cost around $650, while the G7 ThinQ Plus could cost around $100 more at $750.

LG might have to tread carefully with the introductory price in The States, however, as it recently dropped the LG V30S ThinQ pre-order price a week after opening them up. That handset began at $929.99 but has been reduced to $729.99 as part of a limited offer. It's suspected that the unit hadn't taken many pre-orders.

LG G7 ThinQ release date and availability in the U.S.

Here's where things get a little more complicated. LG isn't making it easy for users to understand when and where they'll be able to buy the phone — the company is leaving that up to the carriers. So far, we have the following LG G7 release date and availability details.

The LG G7 release date in the U.S. and Canada is Friday, June 1. That's when you'll be able to buy the G7 ThinQ online and in most of the major carrier stores and retailers. You can sign up to receive updates on the G7's availability in the U.S. at this link.

  • Verizon pre-orders for the LG G7 ThinQ begin Thursday, May 24, with the official launch date slated for June 1.
  • Sprint pre-orders begin Friday, May 25, and customers will be able to buy the device on June 1.
  • T-Mobile says the G7 ThinQ will be available for purchase sometime this Spring, though the carrier doesn't give an exact date. We'd assume the G7 ThinQ will be available for pre-order around the May 24-25 timeframe, with availability beginning on June 1.
