Today in Midrand, Johannesburg, LG officially opened its new offices and experience area. LG’s in for a few changes in the South African market. One of those changes is a move out of Germiston, a space the company had occupied for a substantial length of time, and a split for the company’s head offices and manufacturing division.
We’ve been expecting LG’s G8X ThinQ to turn up for a few months and, true to form, the company has not disappointed. The G8X will be landing in South Africa from next month and we’ve got pricing and other details for you.
Smart TVs have evolved so quickly that it’s difficult to believe they only arrived on the scene a few years ago. They continue to develop, with manufacturers continually looking to outdo one another with everything from functionality to sound and image quality.
We’re used to LG releasing its phones more than once — there are a few instances of that in the company’s history. The next phone to get another release is the third (fourth? No, third) edition of the LG G8 — the LG G8X. Which, before you ask, is different from the LG G8S.
LG’s teasing what appears to be a triple-screen smartphone, which will be unveiled at this year’s IFA in Berlin. But, before you got all ‘LG’s got a folding phone’ on us, it looks as though the additional displays will appear courtesy of a smartphone case.

It’s been a busy month here at the Stuff offices. Nearly busy enough to make us forget that we’re giving away three LG Bluetooth speakers to three lucky winners. That’s one speaker each, rather than three speakers per winner. It’s important to be clear up-front. It save yelling later on. Though, to be very correct, it’s LG giving away the two Xboom Go PK3 and one Xboom Go PK5 speaker. We’re just being really, really helpful.
LG’s finally bringing a version of its G8 ThinQ flagship, the LG G8S ThinQ, and a budget device called the Q60, to South Africa.
What’s that, we hear you cry? It’s about bloody time? We’re right there with you on this one. It’s been far too long since Stuff had a fresh giveaway for its readers. But the drought has broken and we’ve got three Bluetooth speakers to give away to three winners. That’s one each, not three each. Important distinction. Up for grabs? Two LG Xboom Go PK3 speakers, valued at R1,000 each, and one LG Xboom Go PK5, valued at R2,500.
MWC has delivered some weird and wonderful mobile tech so far and LG has announced the G8 ThinQ that can read your palms. You read that right.
