Google's Project Fi Service Adds Support For 3 New Phones Including LG V35 ThinQ
The Moto G6 and LG G7 ThinQ are already known quantities to us, with the former featuring a 5.7-inch Full HD display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB of internal storage, a microSD slot for expanded storage and TurboPower support. The latter -- which we previewed here-- features a 6.1-inch edge-to-edge display (3120x1440), Snapdragon 845 processor, 4GB RAM, 64GB internal storage and dual rear cameras.
The new entry is the LG G7 ThinQ, which will also be available on AT&T's wireless network. Think of the V35 ThinQ as the G7 ThinQ on steroids, as it brings a notch-less OLED display, 6GB of RAM and a slightly larger 3,000 mAh battery (versus 3,000 mAh) to the table. The V35 ThinQ, however, does give-up the Boom Box speakers and the dedicated Google Assistant button.
The Moto G6 typically retails for $249, but is available for pre-order on Project Fi for just $199. The G7 ThinQ is priced at $749 on Project Fi, while the V35 ThinQ will set you back a whopping $899. The latter two will be available in June and will come with a $50 credit for Project Fi service for preorder customers.
It's nice to see that Project Fi is expanding device compatibilities, as previously the service was limited to Google's own Nexus and Pixel smartphones along with the Moto X4.
