Smartphone speakers are often only suitable for taking calls or watching videos, so the [LG](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-stanbyme-speaker) G7 ThinQ smartphone has been designed to help make them more applicable for [audiophiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-music-studio-5-and-7). Integrated with the Boombox Speaker, the smartphone is capable of reaching a bass sound level over six decibels, while the interior resonate chamber offers ten-times louder sound than the predecessor. This enables the device to work as your everyday smartphone and a speaker to do away with the need for an external unit to play your favorite tunes.

The LG G7 ThinQ smartphone comes in five color options and speaks to the consumer lifestyle that is increasingly focusing on simplicity by eliminating superfluous technology for better efficiency.
