That and the removable battery. The battery they have but it costed $100 and could only be found on Amazon. LG Mobile is a terrible company. Will not support ever again. They make decent fridges though.

This G5 phone in my first handphone for LG. I've been using it since last month. For now I don't see any problems about the phone. Performance is Superb. I do have the camplus, 360cam and the Hi-Fi and it all works just fine. Its just that the GPS sometimes is not that accurate. But all in all performance it is a worth the price. Bought it for $565 with free battery kit. You can buy lg friends at ebay.
What I don't like about the phone: It is not water proof. The modular base is very questionable. Not good for single hand held phone if you put hars case for extra grip, better use both of your hands. GPS is inaccurate for prolonged use.

The FM radio is locked or laser cut in my hardware revision of the LG G5. It's version RS988. Rumor is, the FM radio only works on LS992 (Sprint - CDMA only) and US992 (US Cellular); Vodafone (not sure if they use GSM or CDMA)
This was almost the perfect phone, I even added a Qi inductive receiver and a laser cut wooden case. But sadly, I cannot list to the FM radio while ridding my motorcycle (helps with traffic alerts) and FM is useful for when the networks and power fails. The FM chip barely uses battery, it doesn't have to decode a bit stream.
I bought this phone unlocked from best buy, and expected the FM radio to work, sadly it didn't.

Anonymous, 22 Aug 2016User of LG for a while I jumped from LG G4 to G5 in a question of few months. After 3 months j... moreWow, your LG G5 gave me a good laugh. While my Z5 lies in my pocket and never minds any water/sweat over it. I carry it with me in rain/pools and show it off while others run to secure their loser phones. LMAO.

I... moreSo you would carry a spare battery with you (in your wallet or pocket) all day everyday and would swap it if the battery dies, alright. Then, you will charge the dead battery (*requires a charging cable with or without adapter which you will carry with you as well) which would take an hour or two and then you carry this one with you. Hmm, how convenient.

After reading so many bad comments about this phone (mostly from people who don't own it...) I have decided to purchase this phone, now at around 408 USD (1500 AED here in Dubai). The price is actually ok for the specs of this phone, got the H860 variant Titan. For that price you won't get the freebies but thats fine with me. I did not get this phone with regards to its modular features...actually im not interested at all. I just got because of the removable battery. Very economical option in case your battery dies, you just get a new one and pop it in, whereas if it were a galaxy s7 or s7 edge, a dead battery would mean a quick trip to the repair shop and surely it would not be cheap. I don't have any issues with this phone, performance wise it delivers as a flagship. battery life can last me through a day, with a mixed use of social media, bluetooth streaming, majority use of internet is through mobile data. At the end of my day which is around 10pm, i still have about 30-40 percent battery life. I dont have issues with build quality, got mine perfect. No heating issues also, gets a little warm though if i play mortal kombat x for an hour :). I can safely recommend this phone to anyone wants to try an LG.
