LMG850EMW.AIN *V* BK Vietnam
LMG850EMW.A IND BK India
bq. Hi its for the operator abbreviation . There are 2 models floating around
1. Indian Manufactured ones : These were only a few lucky ones and I am one of them . Operator Abbreviation for these models are IND .
2. Vietnam Manufactured ones : These were with that festive WFH sale edition and most of the units . Operator Abbreviation for these models are INV
How to check your Operator abbreviation .
-Go to website http://www.lgbbs.com/plugin.php?id=lg_mobile&am...
-Enter your IMEI number *#06#
-Check your operator abbreviation code .
This way you should select the correct product while registering your device.
Some additional fun facts
1. Indian Manufactured Model Number is LMG850EMW
2. Real Vietnam Manufactured Model Number is LMG850EMW1 inspite of it showing LMG850EMW on the Box & Software . How do I know . Check the link above & the open Source code ( https://opensource.lge.com/osSch/list?types=ALL... )
3. MOST IMPORTANT - Fastboot mode is not available on Vietnam devices 
Indian Devices have fastboot mode available. But even on Indian devices bootloader unlock is not available as we require an Unlock key from LG , which needs to be requested using your IMEI and a device id which you get from a fastboot command . As I have an Indian device and fastboot works I tried applying for bootloader unlock key but LG till now is not provide bootloader unlock key for these devices.

There is a review in flipkart which is 27 days old, he bought it in 40k and all praise for the phone but now he would be repenting by seeing a 50% discount in less than 1 month. I can feel for the guy
Lenovo qualcomm certified quick charger works with it as fast charging..
Bhai any Qc3.0 will work, 18 w charger is fine. Poco f1 charger will work perfect
Is there anybody else other than @PaytmKaPoojari who got charger. He is the only king here 
Yes Me 
Is it coming back again??
Bro, one point to ask, why anyone will sell 55k device at 18-19k. Had it not included the second display, price could have been cheaper by 5k atleast. Then whole India would have jumped to buy this device. It has amoled, that’s why PWM is kind of visible, which will strain eyes
Buy a good pair of headphones. 
any audiophiles here, who can recommend good and cheap headset to take advantage of Quad DAC
Holla. I will But they wont come cheap unfortunately
Got the device and just watched couple of videos by this commercial photographer, lot of cool tips on using g8x’s camera
nxt sale is today https://www.desidime.com/deals/upcoming-2c41633...

👏👏
Anyone please share some branded charger for this. Lg g8x
#LGG8X
I still don’t understand, why they removed charger. For sure, it’s not influenced by Apple’s decision which has come recently, as they must have planned it a month ago.
1. It’s a special limited edition. The only thing special is they have not put charger in the box, though there is space for it in the box. I would say, it’s a stock clearance edition.
2. Good thing is, import date is Oct 2020 only, so no chances of refurbished phones.
3. They should have removed earphones instead of charger. Infact, on review they should have sent charger instead of power bank
4. It’s not made in China. Although it’s not Made in India either. Still, feels good someway.
I’m using Oneplus 30W warp charger for now. But since, it’s charging very slow, will buy another compatible one. Any suggestions?
Any suggestion for screen protection films/screen guard?
#mystory
Sure, many people tried to buy it on Day 1 midnight and failed, but there was hundreds of stock. The order confirmation page came at12.01am. Next morning 8am, people bought it on COD and gave up on card discount.
11.55- Got reminder notification on telegram. Thought for 2 mins, do I really need this? No. But let’s try hands on this unique device, if I can get it and it’s totally worth is for 20K. I was actually so sure, that there would be less than 100 stock and I’m not gonna get it, because I am not using any script.
11.57- Added money in SBI debit card and saved it in Flipkart account
11.59- wait, search and click product (on app).
12.00- Hit Buy now button.
12.00.20-12.00.40: On payment page, SBI card was under heavy load and FK showing message to use other payment method. But since, I was just trying, I thought to keep trying.
12.00.40-12.01- Tried third time, Voila! Payment done, order completed.
I think, it’s about hitting Buy now button at the right time is most important and sure, they had huge stock.
Bought only for experience and might sell it off in a month or so. Happy with my OP 7T so far.
Most probable explanation is device wasn’teant for India but was diverted/cleared to be sold in India as charger plugs varies, they removed all the chargers.
Looks like this phone will push an average mid-range mobile user to become a high-end user.
Once they get the taste of Snapdragon 800 series processor, it is hard to go back to 700 or 600 series.
Going back to LCD display from LED is also hard.
People may start playing the pre-installed high graphic games just to test the gamepad on the second screen.
These users may buy a wireless charger for the first time just to experience it.
Some will probably go for a premium headset to take advantage of the Quad DAC.
IP68 certification is also new in this price range.
Not really. Most people just don’t care about displays.
Anyone can suggest on below accessories/points?
- Reliable and best charger (is the LG charger is mandatory if we have to claim warranty?)
- Screenguards (Since it has dual screens)
- Good sturdy case since external body is made of glass
- Reliable mobile insurance
I am also thinking, do we need to use tempered glass? If yes on both screens? It won’t effect on movement/adjustment of screens?
Charger- any QC 3 certified is enough for warranty claim.. suggestion- mi QC 3 charger
one lg g8x is available with one of my friends on cod. he ordered for hyderabad. if someone s interested can msg me
LG G8X – Free Screen Replacement Guarantee .. !!
Where to register product? There is no option to register mobile in LG Care app
Getting very poor network coverage signals. Anyone facing similar issue. Is it faulty one ?please suggest
Has anyone noticed difference in color temperature in dual screen, one is little yellowish than other. Evident in wide view mode in chrome
@PaytmKaPoojari do you have avengers where iron man and captain America are facing each other wallpaper in stock app, I saw it on Flipkart review pics but can’t find it anywherr
no not in the list of stock wallpapers
This has a premium OLED display. Don’t ruin your experience by using screen protectors. Just use the silicon back cover. That’s it. Otherwise, what’s the point of owning a premium handset
noticed difference in both oled screens which I stated above?
Can we use as daily driver?
Yes boss.
Don’t know y.. But it seems therez a gap between the mobile and the back glass on the top side.. 
@ Abhinav_Pune.. Can u check
Don’t know y.. But it seems therez a gap between the mobile and the back glass on the top side.. 
Not at all feeling proud

Like eg.. Any offer on speaker or other coupons..
Is there any heating issue while using the camera…?
Guys, is carrier aggregation working on the phone
