Sprint, AT&T Wireless Lure Buyers to LG G8X ThinQ Phone With Plan Promos, Free Screens

Nov. 8 is launch for LG's G8X ThinQ smartphone, with preorders slated for Friday. Sprint said Tuesday carrier switchers are eligible to buy the phone for $15 a month. Current customers can get the phone for that price if they’re upgrade-eligible or if they add a service line. Customers can get a free LG Dual Screen by mail-in rebate. AT&T is offering the $780 smartphone for free -- and tossing in a free LG Dual Screen on preorders -- for enrolling a new line on eligible plans; credits are applied after 30 payments, it said. The 6.4-inch smartphone has an OLED screen and three cameras and allows users to work off two screens simultaneously.
