- This is a pre-production unit. Please make sure to ask a ton of questions for the full review of the V20 so that I know what you all want to know! Thank you LG for sending this out for me to look at! And a super thank you to braintreepaymen... for making content creation possible!
Removable Battery
IR blaster
SD card expansion
Dual camera setup
32 bit Hi Fi DAC
Military Grade Durability Rating
Lades and Gentleman this is how you make a phone for power users
I am sad that Note series started as a power house but now it has become a piece of jewelery
Yes. Agreed. V20 also has proper Bluetooth with aptX (like the Note). Erica please test V20 with aptX Bluetooth headphones. I've had Samsung Notes 2, 3, 4 and 5 (along with keeping Note 4 for removable battery and MicroSD slot - Note 4 still used in 4WD for large music library and offline mapping). I won't go for a Note 7 with glued-in battery - even when re-released. The V20 with quality DAC suits me if it can be rooted (any news on that front?). LG should also add a Wacom digitizer and pen to the next V20 version IMHO. If the international V20 can be rooted I will keep my Note 5 just for the spen, taking notes and scribling ideas, and go with the LG as my main device.
couldn't have said it better myself sir!
I agree with you about the Note series
Well said. A phone without a removable battery is like a car with non-removable tires.
HappyZorro amen!
Superb overview! Here are some questions:
1.Does the phone have FM radio?
2. Is the front 5MP f1.9 camera a downgrade from the 8mp f2.0 camera in LG G4, G5 and V10?
3. Does it have x2 optical zoom like the iPhone 7?
4. What is the range of the IR blaster cone? The HTC M8 was almost 360 degrees, the Lg G4 was only 5-10 degrees.
5. Can we expect shoddy finishing like the back of your plastic top and bottom bezels?
6. What is the battery drain over the night (say 9 hours) with wifi off? LG G4 can do 0% drain (concerned about second display).
7. Is the LCD contrast ratio as good as the G4? There were many quality problems with the G5
8. Can you change the colour temperature and calibration in Nougat to fix factory settings and get the whites just right and remove green tint?
9. Can the native video app record at 60fps?
10. Can it play Apple Lossless M4A files natively? Still missing this feature in Android
11. Does the back of the phone have terminals for wireless charging for future case back mods? e.g plastic cover with wireless sticker mod?
12. What are the MIMO capabilities of the phone?
13. Can you ask LG what they have done this time around to prevent the notorious bootloop?
14. If you take the phone out of your pocket do the volume buttons have enough tension as to not be inadvertently pressed?
15. Are those B&O headphones only in-ear plugs or do they come with an attachment that makes them like Apple earpods?
16. The B&O headphone frequency range is 20hz-16kHz. The frequency range of the old Apple Earpods are a massively wide 5hz-21kHz!! That means better treble and unbelievable bass. Are the included headphones really up to the job because on paper they are a downgrade from iPhone 5 headphones.
Thank you!
Oh My...
This does not have any optical zoom. Some people confuse the switching between standard angle camera and wide angle camera "zooming," but it's not. It's just wide angle and standard angle. I guess if you really wanted to relate it to zooming, you could say that the wide angle camera is technically zooming out from the standard camera, but that's still not really the case.
the frequency response is generally useless for describing the sound characteristics. best to take a look at a frequency response graph
16. Frequency range has very little to do with the quality of the bass and treble. The Shure Se425 for example have a frequency range from 20,0 to 19.000,0 Hz and cost 250 euros and the Apple earbuds don't come close to the sound the Shures produce. There's much more to headphones than the frequency range.
NB. I listened to my friends B&O H3's once and compared to my Sony earbuds at the time they were much, much better. The Sony's were already better than my previous earbuds, the Apple earbuds. So I don't think you have to worry, you could always read some reviews of course.
f1.9 is better than f2.0
*this is a preview unit so things may change when the final retail units are released*
Is it worth getting it?
That's Fine .. Its Possibly at less 80% accurate right?
am a great fan of lg,my phone has drop in warter and it still work..LG remain a nice and strong loook.lg is just super
LG LG LG GO GO GO LG WOOOOOOOOOUHOUUUUUUU
Front design looks like a tablet
personally I feel like the v10 just looks way better than the v20
I'm with you on that. The aluminum back looks so boring. At least the silicone backs on the V10 had a nice finish to them. They looked pretty and unique.
Agreed...
I agree. Something about the V10 just looked awesome. I am still not a fan of how LG are implementing the dual cameras into their design. They should look at how Huawei (P9 & Honor 8), HTC (M8), and now even Apple (iPhone 7 Plus) have done it. They made it so it isn't too distracting. LG's implementation looks a little lobsided. They should have considered a visor like design, similar to the Nexus 6P perhaps.
The v10 does look nicer. But atleast the new Aluminum back will double as a heatsink.
the V20 is just a very "safe" design to me
Soooo... is this what the G5 should have been?😂
+Sonic Dart well, no. This is just what the V20 should have been and the G5 should not have existed lol
+Erica Griffin
I think LG should just kill the G lineup and let the V series take its place.
+Erica Griffin brutal
+Erica Griffin when the v20 is going to be available?
All people have different Opinons personally I like the g5
11:42 "not a laggy type phone". Hangs for a couple seconds when opening the app drawer.
she just put app drawer...its always like that when u put it for 1st time...
That always happen the first time u turn on any Lg phone
really? this phone smokes anything that Samsung has. no discussion required.
+Darrin Thorpe nice fanboying
Tarmius i don't obviously have it yet, but I'm getting it the first day it comes out. LG is really pushing the envelope with innovation.
They know how to build a great smartphone.
I mentioned I like to sing, soprano. I don't upload much or often on here. Lots is old. But here is that channel since some are asking. *blush* czcams.com/users/ericaryane be kind lol
Cool! Ill check it out! Also, the v20 looks so big in your hand! Ty for making great vids!
I would love to hear what you think of its "studio" audio recording.
And, how is its display in daylight?
And do you have any clue as to when it is going to be releases to the general public in the Us?
And yes, I know I am borderline staulking:)
John LeBaron
lol
John LeBaron
Check her sing out if you haven't... only one I've heard so far, Lana Del Ray cover, she is amazing!
I just have to say. you gave the best unboxing I've seen in some time. not only do you give us a great look of the device, you have both models to show the difference from one model of the V series to the next. Your unboxing review is Rockstar!!
Thank you !
Now we just need to hear you sing. #ericathesoprano
***** thanks I didn't know about that.
I'm sure she has a beautiful singing voice.
Well, czcams.com/users/ericaryane I don't upload much on there at all. Lots of it is older stuff but you can get an idea.
the v10 and v20 are like the lg versions of the galaxy note
well...yeah, i liked a little bit more the V10 than the Note 5, and the V20 than the Note 7, but botj are great phones.
+Nicolas Guerra They both are meant for power users so cant say a version of one another
with these v series phones, I really do not get the point of the g series phones. the g5 was a big joke.
Well right now i have 2 phones wich are the ,Note 5 and the G5, i am using the Note 5 cuz the the lg screen was crap, but its not a bad phone at all the battery was much better than the note 5 and the camera too OC but it was not was i expected, a good software its not enough if you do not have a good hardware. Ithink that was the biggest problem with the g5
Erica. Thank you for doing these reviews. It was you review that introduced me to the V10 which was the perfect device for me after my Galaxy had a losing battle with a flight of stairs. Keep up the good work!
5 years later I went ahead and picked one up again. needs some work but still pretty snappy
I hope they make some rubber backs also....whats the point of a removeable back if they don't give other options>?
Lg is the real mvp with removable battery and micro sd!
I started searching for phone reviews specifically for samsung note 7 and lg v20. I have to say that you're a great reviewer. You're not bias, you make points on things that is easy for average people(like me) to understand. Keep up the good work and I really hope for better things for you in the future. Thank you.
I love that they moved the volume buttons to the side. I have the V10 (which I love) but I hate starting up a CZcams video only to find that I left the volume at max for a louder environment and I end up in a mad scramble to find the volume down key to turn it down. Not only that but using the volume key as a camera shutter button is completely useless when your hand has to partially (or fully) cover the lens in order to push it.
I'm not one to upgrade each year (I upgraded to the V10 after 3yrs with the Samsung Note 2) so I'll probably be hanging back until the V30, but I'm glad to see LG kept the good stuff (second screen, DAC, manual camera, beautiful screen, etc) and is still working for the betterment of the V series with minor improvements throughout.
Excellent video. Keep up the great work!
Would love to know what the battery life is like and how long you can go without charging.
with B&O amp sections it should sound powerful
+koushik datt. But he was asking about the battery life though, not sound performance.
battery life is amazing in my opinion
~3200mAh, how is that for you?
Yes. It looks like you can change the screen profile:
Settings > Display > Comfort view.
not the same thing.
That conforms to no standard, only for comfort preferences
If you go to accessiblity- vision- screen color adjustment then you can fine tune the color balance to your liking. This is a true color calibration. Also are you going to release a full v20(production model) review?
I have questions:
1. The screen is 5.7 "+ another screen 2.1"?
Meaning two screens at 5.9 "?
2 . Why LG indicates the best mobile headsets is the B & O Play certified
There are many excellent headphones so way B&O
?
3. what wireless headset best for v20 cellular and why?
I hope LG fixes the shadow under the second display like you mentioned at 9:23
+Erica Griffin how long until the full review?
What's the difference between the B&O branded V20s and the none B&O branded V20s??
The B&O version will have DAC tuning software which will probably not make it to the u.s. :(
B&O will be the output amp section. DAC if different
the sound signature of the phone is the difference and I believe all B&O come prepackaged with B&O headphones.
You will be able to buy one unlocked off the B&O website or app.
You're awesome Erika. I couldn't find a review of LG V20. I commented from the review of your note 7 saying i am torn between Note 7 and LG V20 and now here you are. This is great. I'll focus on your video first and my decision comes next wether to which phone to get. Thanks awesome person :)
The G5 was(laughs it off)...Loved it XD
V10 gives me butterflies!
Even my 6s looks ugly in front of it!
It is gorgeous I have an black leather edition with golden frame
I agree 100%
Watching on my brand new s7 edge and I'm heavy breathing. So want this phone but LG won't say when / if coming to Europe
hahaha
It's not coming to the UK or Europe, only being sold in United States. But there will be a few sites out there online who'll be importing them and then selling the phones through their site to people in Europe and the UK.
I really love your video, it's like being actually there with the phone! thank you!
Also Erica, thank you for all information provided in all your reviews. My wife and I think you are probably the best youtuber out there.
Double tap to wake-up the screen still in this phone? Thanks
Lg always thats there thing
+Regilio Bouma their *
Simon Haley xd
yes
That's my favorite thing about lg
Is the metal coated in a paint like primer?
plastic like primer
no
It is pure metal. No primer
No, it's aluminium
thankfully no primer
Ok Does It screen have a setting to brighten it up? It's way to dark for outside. I loved the Removable Battery
I still have my Samsung Note 2 for that very reason. I take it over my IPhone 6 Plus if it will be a long Day just because I have an extra battery in my pocket to pop in and now I am fully charged when I am at the Fair or an outing in the Country.
thank you for bothering to mention the ir blaster.... most every other review I've seen neglected that and i find it immensely useful. thanks for paying attention to details. :)
I wish Samsung could ship the fixed Note 7 with Android 7.0 Nougat, there is no reason the firmware is not ready, If LG can do it why Samsung can't?
LG has a recent trend of being the first with their android updates even with the past 2 major updates cause they are removing lots of LG features and making it more stock. Samsung has more proprietary software tweaks so it will take longer. pros and cons for both I guess
+Duck of death not exactly, their success is tied directly to advertisement. Samsung is really good at it (almost apple lvl) and LG's is dogshit, they don't even know how to advertise their phone's features and how it stands out or better than others. I bet no one is gonna know wat a V20 is and less so it's features.
+Duck of death Like with the V20 LG has a great opportunity to jab other competitors; iPhone 7 no headphone vs quad DAC,useless telephoto camera vs useful wide angle; Note7 exploding Batt vs removable batt; Waterproof vs transit drop-proof...ect. but they won't do jackshit or do it in a way that it's cringy
+Duck of death actually I agree with the waterproofing slightly cause it's very convenient to just run it under the water and clean ur phone, and esp when I leave my s7 under the sun while ballin, I just run it under the water cooler and it's all cooled down. But I've never dropped my phone in a water source before but have dropped it on the ground several times(broke my s7 screen😔) so I do value 810g drop res. to water res. esp aftr looking at the drop test frm Android Authority, it's durable af
+Duck of death looks wise it's not the sexiest like a HTC or S7 but is in my opinion no where near being a eye sore or ugly like the G5. Can't even tell the plastic apart. It just looks like a business phone, bland and uninteresting but buit with high quality precision and has a premium design. Nothing to brag or complain about
I'm deciding between this and the Pixel XL. Which is a better buy?
Faheem Yazdani same here. would love to see a vs video
I would go with the pixel xl unless you really really need a removable battery
this is much bttr
Erica nice unboxing video!
My areas of curiosity....
1. Battery Life: Under aggressive high brightness multiple app use (active and background) how many hours can this last? Please let it be real world usage of emails, CZcams, dual window, file sharing, etc.
2. Speaker/ Mic: How well can you and caller hear one another on speaker phone? How loud and clear is the music coming from the speakers? I am outdoors in the city elements and need a phone that can belt out sound via speaker phone as well as carry my voice to the caller.
3. Screen Brightness: How well can you view the main and secondary screens outdoors?
4. Nougat Multi Window: Is multiwindow supportive of many apps? Commonly used apps (CZcams, FB, Twitter etc, Word Documents). Is it also supportive of downloaded apps?
5. 4G Connectivity / Wifi / Call Quality: How does it manage data usage with 4G and wifi? Does the earpiece on the handset produce clear, loud sound during voice calls?
Erica thanks in advance for your diligence!
they make big deal about 4 DAC audio output. Can you please check if sound quality is really better than average?
Bye Note 7, hello V20 😍😍😍
oh hey look,
a headphone jack
Erica, Thank you for an excellent unboxing and a in-depth introduction!
I got my note 7 two weeks ago, it's a beast of a phone. Good battery life too, I can easily get 6 hours of SOT. I'll be getting the v20 as my second phone, it's going to be my first LG phone since the G2.
can we expect a V20 vs Note 7 video? Maybe?
No comparison at all! Note 7 far more superior! ➡Just my opinion. ⬅
V10 had the best mobile camera in 2015 I'm pretty sure the V20 camera will blow note 7 and iPhone 7 out off the water
the note and v20 will be very similar in performance and both camera are beasts I'm sure so go for design
Isaac Joya both designs are good for me the camera is the top priority.
+francob911 I think someone did a versus video for the LG V20 and Note 7
Any idea what the price will be?
+Leonardo Jarvis I'm not privy to much information yet. This is just what I had to show you so far.
+Erica Griffin cool love your reviews great job!
About $700
when does it come out?
probablya little more than the g5 so around 650 to 700?
Hello Erica. Thank you for showing the IR blaster on the top. You asked for questions/ideas. Not sure if you remember me from comments I made in your note 7 video but I'd like to know some of the more technical features. For example, if it has an FM radio chip please briefly demonstrate. Also, the note 3 had a barometer, temperature sensor AND a humidity sensor. The humidity and thermometer sensors were discontinued. It's really hard to find accurate truthful specifications on comparison websites so if you're able to cover stuff like this in a mini techy bit, that would be great. Many thanks and keep up the excellent reviews, Kev
Battery life, actual storage out of the box, audio quality for video and music please Erica. Thanks and keep up the great work
this or s7 edge for note 7 replacement?
Andrew Michael thats the exact same question I have right now lol
I already know the screen is superior on the Samsung phone.. Doesn't have the blue tint. And I'm not sure if I could get used to the second screen wasting some of the screen real estate.. But meh. LG supports band 66 which is new but I never had an LG phone before
Steve Hitman its a 5.7" display excluding the second screen. so no wastage of screen estate.
You look like fan of sia.... I saw cheap thrills on the secondary screen of your device.
+Gurjot Sahota yes I am lol
Erica GriffinSo do you find any difference in the beats when listening thro high quality dac or is it just not a differentiator for a normal person. WHAT I MEAN IS COMPARED TO SAMSUNG GALAXY OR NEXUS 6P
Unless you have headphones that support hi res audio like The Sony H.ear on you wont notice a difference.
+Abdu Maxwell yes which is exactly why lg sent her the b&o headphones. so she can check out the DAC. so im curious on if she could tell a big difference
So this means if you have audio technica m40x or m50, you will hear good irrespective of the DAC put in?
YYYYEEEEESSSSS - thank you so much for showing the phone back removal and battery install process. I have been wondering how it would work, if it was more like my existing Note II - yes I said I still use the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 from 2012 and love it and my removable battery - or if LG was sticking with that weird modular replaceable battery I saw once.
Done, the V20 is the replacement phone for me FINALLY with its replaceable battery and the amazing sound recording as well as playback capabilities of the phone. I love how LG looked at Apple removing audio capabilities of their newest phone and decided to double down by including four DAC chips and multiple microphones. I'm excited to get my hands on this.
This a phone that I've been wanting from LG , a metal phone with removable back ! GREAT video Erica ! :)
Sucks on snapchat or look great?
great preview and hoping that there is hidden controls to calibrate the screen.
Samsung Galaxy Note 7 owner here. I just love the pretty blue coral color of my phone. Note 7 all the way. Despite the recall of the battery that Samsung did NOT manufacture. Not all Note 7 were affected and unlike MOST manufactures, Samsung did have a VOLUNTARY recall, Samsung told all Note 7 owners to return the phone for a revamp version, also they are giving a free $25 store gift card for those that have a Note 7. I am a loyal customer of Samsung. because their products are high end, reliable and they do stand behind their products. Now, I'm not trying to show off, everybody has a particular manufacture that they like more so then others. But, this is my 5th Note phone that I own. I had Note phone's 2 through 7. I just love the fact that I can pull out that magic wand and fluently write, draw, paint and color on my screen. This is the best Note from previous Note models. Oh I could just go on and on about all the cool stuff the Note 7 can do, from the 4K UHD display and the phone's power, and how fast it is.
I think where this phone really shines is the sound quality. Can't wait to see the other videos comparing the sound quality to iPhone 7 and Google Pixel (HTC) phones.
Hi Erica....First the bird drawing then the singing on your other channel, very impressed and subscribed. Never stop :)
Why are there so many dislikes on this video? Her old school impromptu unboxings and detailed overview is what deviates her from the "pop" tech channels.
What would you say is your stance on waterproofing and removable battery? If you had to choose two identical devices, lets say one V20 was IP68 waterproof and one V20 was removable battery, which of the 2 features would you prefer? Do you think that the non-waterproof one could handle some light spills or being kept in a soggy jacket because of a rainy day? (most modern devices have SOME sort of waterproof resistance though perhaps not enough to get an official rating). ALSO I would love if you were to try this device with an extended battery, like ZEROLemon (there are others that are smaller too). For $50 you can get several days on one battery. Removable battery also means that, while the battery on most devices becomes nearly useless after 1.5-2 years, having removable battery means you can just replace it and get full battery endurance again for $50 rather than having to drop $700 on a new phone every 2 years. Thanks!
thanks for the unboxing and review. rarely see any good quality and full length reviews. most are just "top 5 features". thank you! def considering an lg v20 in replacement of my iphone 6 plus and your video has helped.
Thank you Erica. I'm waiting for it
7:27 ! I never knew we could hold and drag to select text like that. Thanks a lot!
1. What can you use the DAC with? Can it be used on streaming services or games?
2. How is the battery life?
3.how fast does charge vs Note 7?
4. How bright is the display vs Note 7 and V10 especial in sunlight
5. How is the speaker sound vs N7 and V10
6. Do a scratch test vs the N7
7. Which gorilla glass does it have?
8. Test the wifi GPS and cellular signal vs N7
9. Benchmarks it against N7
10. What's new in the Ui VS V10
11. Does it have a ram management the way S7 and Note7 have?
12. Does it have a built in EQ and can you use it on Google music? Since the US version has no B&O tuning
13. Will it come with a gift like the V10
14. Was happy to meet you in person at the Note 7 launch you look better in person. Lol
Once the V20 is released i definitely get this phone and use as my daily driver. I wanted the G5 until it was released, then no way! I'm a photographer and a party planner and have to run around all day with one phone for use so i need the removable battery and manual features of the camera. for me it's much easier for me to carry around a few extra batteries in my pocket and not having to worrie about leaving somewhere to charge. Thank you LG!
The video quality is excellent, keep up the awesome work!
As for a question / request for a full review, can you please go into detail on the capabilities of the second screen?
Unbelievable. This is a phone I would actually consider purchasing. Has every feature I can imagine that most others are going away from. In your full review, please comment on phone/call/speaker quality besides everything else you're so thorough on. I imagine it's going to be pretty pricey. What are the dimensions?
just got this phone on monday love it already wanted the note 7 but this will keep me happy until note 8 most definitely.
Having owned a few phones without removable batteries and increasingly heavier usage, I find my battery starts to deteriorate before a full year has completed. Phones with removable batteries would definitely be a point I would like to see in my next smartphone.
i love your videos they are fair unlike some very known channels who do about 26 write ups reviews on it in half a day
I was a soprano in choir in school then switched to tenor 2. I can still hit two C's above middle C in falsetto with some warm up.
If you do a smackdown between the V20 and V10 can you compare the camera/photos/videos? I'm curious if there much difference. Thanks.
I really love the look of this phone, LG did great.
This is like a mini review. Good job erica 👍
Well,5 month ago I bought the most durable smatrphone,the Lg V10.A superb camera,nice DAC,unique design,a second screen and TWO LAYERS OF GORILLA glass.Two days a go my friend was trying to show me something on the laptop and pushed my phone from the table,the phone was dropped from no more than 60 cm on a wooden floor,it landed face down and the TWO LAYERS OF GORILLA GLASS cracked,and created a thin beautiful line from right to lef.I like the V20,beautiful upgrade but I wont bet my money on the LG TOUGHNESS again.
When the V20 was released I thought it was going to suck so bad, but I actually like the new design, very nice.
I like the packaging it came in. It looks kind of fancy
I like the way they made the front flush, it looks better but I every other design aspect of the V10.
I'm creating animation with LG V10 can't wait to get V20!
Erika, please review the speaker. I have the Lg G4 and really wanted to like the v10, but the speaker on the v10 was horrible. the G4 is three times as loud and more better quality. is the V20 speaker better than the V10? as good as the g4?
I bought a LG V20 today it works Flawlessly not bad
Erica's all review are so good 😍😍😍😍
Great job as always Erica!
any word on the full review? This phone looks really promising! All it's really missing in my opinion is front facing stereo and OLED. And yes, those camera options are glorious indeed ...
Did the V20 lose the colour spectrum sensor for a dual flash setup?
So I have the v10 been using it for awhile and the two big things I'm worried about is the "screen burn in" when you leave it on one still image for a long time.
And the battery life. Both of these things are the only problems I even have with the v10
If you can confirm that the screen and power saving are better on the new v20 I'll definitely owe you one!
I'm thinking that the secondary screen needs to be on the bottom instead of the top. If you're holding it vertically, it'll be easier to reach on the bottom
It would have been really great if LG brought this design last year to the V10 and the older one to the V20. IMO the V10's design looks more appealing to me.
the front looks just like the BlackBerry z10
Hi Erica, nice to see you having the V20.
LG sure going to make the powerusers happy with the high grade DAC, IR blaster, Removable Battery & SD Card.
How is the battery life and Screen quality comparing to a Note 4, 5, 7?
Can you include a test for the DAC in your review.
1. with the use of your earbuts
2. with the use of a high grade headphone like the senheiser Momentum
3. Sound comparison on the source e.g. Spotify, Tidal & Local player with high res files.
If you like me loving high quality sound be sure to check out Jriver mediaplayer.
Keep up your good work ;-)
I bought LG G3 2 years ago and loved the phone (I am changing too Note 7 soon) and what i loved about LG G3 was the buttons on the back instead of the sides, why do you think the reason is that they went back to buttons on the side on the G5 and V20 when G2-G4 and V10 had on the back.
Yes I bought V10 after I've seen your review. And I love it. Thank you Erica. Have left Samsung.
The top notification bar whilst nice makes the phone taller than is necessary. I normally have a phone on my shirt pocket. I think this is taller than say Note7, but screen is 5.5".
Brightness, how is it? On my LGV10 I have to run it almost all the way up or it looks too dim.
LG still offers removable batteries on their phones. Major selling point for me.
Please review battery life and list the types of media that can be employed back on the phone (e.g.. mp4, aviation, mkv etc.). Looking forward to the full review.
Hi, please turn on mobile data, and location setting and maybe maximum brightness, to see how hot the phones gets. This were all the conditions my phone (LG G4) was facing which caused it to melt a part of soldering in the PCB causing it to malfunction.
So I guess I'll have to buy this. The Note 7 is the hottest device of the year and they're popularity is blowing up
Thanks for taking time to answer questions! Lol
Always awesome reviews by the way!
When it's turned off, this looks like a giant Motorola Droid X2, which is actually the body Blackberry used for their Z10 device.
Thank you, Erica! Please do a V20 vs Note 7 video. For now I'm sticking with the note 7 since my V10 is now a brick due to the boot loop issue. I hope they fixed that with this model.
despite her review im still getting a g5 mines won't be from the first batch so I'm more confident I will love it like I did the g4 .....before it bootlooped ..G5 here I come 😊
hi Erica,
Definitely, please test out on the battery life. This concerns me the most, thanks!
i like the more concise reviews, thanks Erica
1) temp check (there were quite a number of cases with burnt motherboards in the G4 here which turned ppl away from LG. I understand S820 is improved, but it's still hot and I didn't heard about heat dissipating mechanisms from LG, unlike Sammy and Sony)
2) Snappiness, esp under multi-windows, gaming, etc (I noticed a bit lag when switching pages/apps)
3) battery life
