    AnonD-247099, 04 Aug 2016It looks like many of you people are not paying attention to the performance when you give you... moreI agree, my G5 is just the living example of what should a smarphone would be, the more I use and look at it everyday the more I feel in love to it, considering I have not use the modular features, surely thIs is the ultimate FUTURE PHONE available... For all destroying this phone, I should say "IT OUR DUST"

          [deleted post]It looks like many of you people are not paying attention to the performance when you give your opinions about a smartphone. I have a G5 and my wife has an s7 edge. G5's performance is way better than s7. I never faced any lag or slowish performance, whereas my wife complaints a lot about lags and slowish moments in S7.

            As a loyal Samsung owner, tried the LG G5 for one reason only -- the removable battery! The concept and anxiety of finding a place to charge your phone when all you have to do is slip in a spare battery is worth it, full stop! Not sure why the public puts up with Samsung and Apple -- demand a removable battery! Otherwise, the G5 works great, great specs, fast, and it certainly has the best smartphone camera out there via normal or the amazing wide-angle view.

V20 needs to standout from every other phone it needs to have the best display led or lcd and also fix other problems of G5 like faulty fingerprint scanner on some units they must increase their quality control so no faulty unit goes to the market and lastly they should only put feature from previous LG flagships and other brands flagship as well which were a success like secondary wide angke camera on back from G5 second screen from V10 iris scanner from note7. They should not experiment with V20 like they did with G5 so no modular design just removable back with removable battery and make the back rubber like on V10 ppl will like this better than metal and modular design. LG you must not fail this time

                    LG superfan, 28 Jul 2016Can someone please clear the display confusion some review says its too dim and some say its s... moreIt is very simple, LG controls the brightness without manual option, which means that if you are outside and their algorithm decided that it needs to go full brightness - it will reach 800 nits but that will happen for a very short period of time because 1. battery 2. heat, then it will go back to less than 400 nits which is very low. Most of the time your phone's screen will be very dim, actually the dimmest on the market. It is a well known problem.
                    You have 0 control over the maximum brightness.
                    LG - try better next year, you blew it.

                            Hello, I compared the screen brightness of my LG G5 with my LG G4, very interestingly LG G4 s screen is much more brighter (in dark room at full brightness)?? Is anyone experiencing low brightness issue with LG G5?

                                    On G4 camera was extremely slow when using flash (at night, it took 3-4sec to take photo).
                                    How's that on G5? Did they fixed this problem?

                                        Do not trust LG. I sent a LG G4 for authorized repair under warranty 6 months ago.
                                        LG sent me a notification when they received, then my phone has disappeared.
                                        I called many times LG customer support, I always receive different explanations but I've not been able to have my phone repaired/returned yet. Finally I transferred the case to my attorney.
