      I'm having this phone almost a year and I'm pretty satisfied with the camera, it's fast, fast charging, the size, and I said that he will get Android Oreo update. Im not satisfeid with the GPS is not working at all, battery is not good and also when I play a game and when I close it they are still some details from the game on the next screens open and that pissed me off. anyway it has Android 7 the touch is good sounds good. I'm happy to have it but soon I will upgrade to some other brand as HTC or Samsung

        how to fix this as sending the files to anyone they get the correct colors; its the display itself and not the camera.
        Where is settings. OF coarse no suppoort worldwide unless you are in USA. I'm told by USA that My model no is out of USA so no support at all, India, Korea , ME, phillipines offer no support.
        For travelers; forget it !

                    I have to say that this is by far the worst smartphone I had. Before it, I had xperia Z2 and have never experienced the problems I have with this LG. From loosing GPS signal almost always when I'm aproaching my destination, non functional fingerprint unlock, poor baterry life, now it started restarting whenever battery comes under 15%. I have it for year and a half and cant wait to switch back to sony or anything else for that matter.

                                24, 17 Aug 2017OK,to some it up,is it still worth it to buy LG G5 this midway of 2017? Absolutely this phone is still relevant now in 2017 and worth buying and I have a G5 myself but my current daily driver is the high end htc u11.

                                Even compared to my U11 the G5 is in some respects better because it has removable battery and always on display and infrared remote control and fm radio and if I dropped it I know my G5 would survive the fall whereas my U11 would probably shatter.

                                In some respects I would rather be using my G5 but it's now my back up phone.

UI on Nougat reminds me of Lollipop, its the last android version i liked the most because of white theme and new status bar. Its cool LG decided to let almost stock ui on g5 instead of MM. I totally agree, status bar on MM is pretty crappy and weird. Performance is super smooth I use Chrome, yahoo mail,FB client, tinder and many widgets at the same time it still dope no single lag (y)

                                      It's a particular app that is badly designed that takes the phone battery down.

I got mine PCB replaced for free as it is under warranty. As you mentioned your set is from US, it might be an issue. But, bootloop is a big deal, you can check it by mailing to serviceindia at lge dot com and reproduce your US bill. Else pay the PCB damages, I'm not sure the cost of the same.
