Concerning comment in the GSMarena review of the G8x, who tests these pretty extensively:
Starts off good...
The LG G8X ThinQ delivered perfect sound output in both parts of our audio quality test through the jack. All of its scores were top-notch with an active amplifier and headphones caused basically no damage - we’ve seen higher stereo crosstalk readings from other phones without headphones than the G8X managed with.
Then...
The loudness wasn’t quite as impressive - the G8X ThinQ was below average, which is somewhat disappointing for a flagship these days. Even enabling the QuadDAC option, which helped boost the loudness on the G8 ThinQ, didn’t do much good this time around.
You have to wonder if they invoked high-gain mode or not...
Has anyone picked up the ATT version yet on here and tested?
