Engadget Logo Engajet Japanese version of LG V60 THINQ's stylus pen is convenient (Dr. Yamane)

"V60 THINQ" is an LG that can use two screens with a dual screen case.When the first model "V50 THINQ" was announced in February 2019, it was seen as a kiwamono -like product, but the foldable tablet "Surface Duo" with Microsoft's similar design was announced.

Surface Duo is 5 in a closed state.6 inches, open when opened.You can use a 1 -inch display.Because it can be handwritten using a pen, it can be used for applications such as taking notes and drawing illustrations.

If you are using Apple Pencil on your iPad, you can tell, but the merit of a large screen is that it is easy to write notes.Surface Duo can be used like a large screen tablet by opening the main body left and right like a notebook.

On the other hand, V60 Thinq is 6 when it is closed..You can add another display of the same size on 8 inches, dual screen.V60 ThinQ can also use stylus pens, but this stylus pen is not a commercially available one, but is a dedicated one that uses Wacom's technology.It is driven by AA batteries.

There are two buttons in the stylus pen, which can be used by pressing the button to launch your favorite app.The thickness of the pen is the same as a general pen, so it is easy to hold.In addition, it is a bit disappointing that the pen cannot be built into the v60 Thinq itself because it has a pen clip because it has a pen clip.

I actually tried using a stylus pen

LG has released a "VU" series with a built -in pen in the past, and recently the "Q Stylus" series.For this reason, we have developed a handwritten app using a pen, and the V60 Thinq also has "Q Memo +" pre -installed.Q memo + supports stylus pen and fingertips and text input.When using a dual screen, you can also write on the left screen.In the same way as other apps, pop -ups can be displayed, but they can only be used on the right screen.

Although the writing taste using a stylus pen is not as good as Apple Pencil, it also senses the pen pressure and supports detailed writing.The weight of the pen is also close to the real pen, and the cross section is round, so it feels good.It can be handwritten evenly like "Write with a hard -based pens on a glass", so it will be a replacement for paper enough.

For example, if you start using a dual screen, you can start a browser on the left and Q Memo + to the right, so you can take notes while searching, so you can collect information.There is something I liked on Amazon, but it is not enough to put it in the bookmark, so you can record a note with a figure.

It is also possible to use Q memo + Google Keep, Microsoft ONENOTE, etc. on one screen, and take notes immediately.

In addition, two apps can be divided on the main screen on the right.You can display two apps on the V60 Thinq sideways, above (dual screen sub screen) and below (main screen).Furthermore, if you divide the screen below and display a memo app on one side, you can take notes while searching for information on browser and SNS.Even with a small screen, a genuine stylus pen can be written well.

If you use V60 Thinq alone, you can use the Q Memo + + to the smallest size and use it as if you put a sticky note that you can freely write on a browser.Other memo apps such as Google's "Keep" can be handwritten and pop -up.If you use a pen, you can easily resize and move a small window.

I took notes while using multiple apps.The browser is displayed on the right side on the right side and Twitter on the left, and youTube and Q Memo + are launched on top of them.You can search while watching videos, browse SNS, and take notes.However, it would be perfect if the pop -up screen could be displayed on the right side ...

However, the number of users who need a pen may not be very large.If it is a simple memo, it would be enough to use a LINE group message to send a note to yourself.However, when you come up with a big idea from a small idea, you want to open a notepad and write freely.Or it is convenient to have a stylus pen when taking notes on the phone.

All of the recent smartphones have a large display size, so it will be easy to write with a pen.I have been using the Galaxy Note series for many years, but as the body size is larger year by year, the frequency of using a pen is increasing because it is "easy to write with a pen" and "easy to see the note after writing".increase.Recently, I have no choice but to write notes on paper notes.

In addition, I usually use multiple smartphones, but when I use a smartphone that can not use a pen, there is no other way but to record the displayed information on the browser, and there are many sessions.It is often the case that it can not be organized later.

Some say that a stylus pen can be bought at a 100 yen shop, but the old -fashioned stylus pen has a poor sensitivity when touching the screen, and it is difficult to draw detailed characters and illustrations.In addition, there is also a third -party rechargeable stylus pen, but if it is a smartphone maker genuine stylus pen, the combination with a special smartphone application (LG Q memo +) is the strongest.

If you have "LG V60 THINQ" and "LG Gram 2in1 model", you can share the stylus pen

In fact, this stylus pen for LG V60 THINQ is the same as the 2in1 model of the lightweight notebook PC "GRAM" series sold in Japan.Therefore, there is an advantage that the same pen as the same notebook PC can be shared.

As mentioned above, LG has been out for a long time, such as the VU series, for a long time, and Japan has also released "LG Q Stylus" last year.In addition, a 5G smartphone "Velvet", which can use the same stylus pen as the V60 THINQ, is also available, and supports stylus pen.

Unlike Samsung's Galaxy Note, LG's stylus pen cannot be stored in the smartphone itself, but as LG does not need to create a pen for each model, cost reductions can be reduced.

If Surface Duo comes out, the V60 ThinQ will be evaluated for the convenience of dual screen + stylus pen as a product in the same direction.I hope LG will be able to launch Velvet in Japan and officially sell stylus pen this fall.
