I bought an A grade refurbished G5 back in 2020. Biggest mistake. Returned it next day. Screen burnin, overheating and throttling making phone too slow, worst battery ever, sometimes won't boot unless I remove and put battery again, bad gps signal, etc
I bought a Xiaomi Redmi 9 for 130$ new instead, best purchase. Best battery ever, 5020mah, etc Still going strong, planning to keep it for another 2yrs.

Battery is not that good. I had to get rid of one of my favorite apps because the battery just couldnt handle it. Once in a while if I dont use it for almost the entire day then I use it at the end of the day it sometimes I have to tap the on button a few times for it to turn on. I've had it for 6 years it still works surprisingly.
in my country, Indonesia, i don't have problem with battery because in the market has a tons of DOUBLE POWER battery made by local company,, my LG G5 using 5600mah by Vizz battery (local product)
I had this phone years back when it came out. Battery life was OK at first but after 4 months, it drained the battery so fast it became pretty much useless.

I only use mine for torrents. Don't want to slow down my newer phones. G5 is already pretty laggy sometimes. Battery life is trash.

The signal quality started to degrade after 2 or 3 years. I had it fixed twice and it never worked reliably ever again. The battery is also sub-par, have to recharge it at least twice a day, but overall it was a nice phone and still is. might keep using it for a couple of months more...

Hi. My phone just doesn't light up. The screen is active but no light on it. And it heats up a bit. Any suggestions how to solve it? Or someone has one to sell. I just can't find one here in Slovenia 🇸🇮. LG for me has the best UI in android, but non android smartphone UI is Blackberry Classic and Passport Silver edition.

This phone single handedly made me switch to a Samsung S7(a phone I still use and love to this day). I loved my G3 and G4 but loathe the G5 for the year I had it.
