The (2018) in the name is an important addition, because there was a bit of a ruckus in the LG regarding the naming process. Last year, LG has released a smartphone under the name of LG isai Beat V34. Marketing specs have seemingly decided that such a name will not pass in Europe and it was decided to call european release of that phone Q8.
