As smartphone screens get bigger and bigger, the gap between a traditional phone and a full-blown tablet continues to shrink. But while plenty of modern handsets can double as communication and entertainment devices, few have fully committed to serving the purpose tablets were originally envisioned for: namely, sketching and note-taking via the use of a digital pen.
Samsung's Galaxy Note9 and earlier entries in the Galaxy Note series have an almost complete monopoly on this market, but at upwards of $1,000, they aren't exactly what you'd call affordable. This is where the LG Q Stylus comes in. Priced at a far more accessible $649, the 6.2-inch smartphone offers the same stylus-based functionality with slightly less power at roughly half the cost of Samsung's flagship handsets.
The LG G8s ThinQ hits all the right notes for a premium smartphone in essential performance, but its gimmicks are best ignored.
