LG G7 ThinQ is finally getting Android Pie update in India. The Korean company seems to have finally begun the roll out of Android Pie for the device. A number of G7 ThinQ users in the country have posted about getting the update on social media. The update comes after months long anticipation. To recall, the G7 ThinQ is the first half flagship from 2018. The smartphone got its first taste of Android Pie in South Korea back in January.
The update brings all the core features released by Google with Android Pie update. One of the major change will be the gesture-based user interface. Gadgets360 reports that it has separately confirmed the roll out in India. The update should also bring some system-level changes and customization seen on the G8 ThinQ. With Google set to release Android 10 Q in the coming days, it is a disappointment that LG is still rolling out Android Pie update.
