Been quite a while since I had an LG phone but needless to say won't be getting a new phone for probably 2+ years if I can manage to give my Pixel 3 the life span my Note 5 had.

@@randallmart92 My only disappointment in the G8 from the G5 is that they took out the "Multicam" for video and put in some nonesense called "food". I do like very much the hand gestures and hope they expand on that and also the Palm ID. Though when going on trips or places I still take my G5 with me just to have that option. Which I found odd they would take out such a great video feature. And also "timelapse." I was on a recent work trip and luckily I took both because of the multiview only to find out also that "timelapse" is also gone on the G8 so if I want to do timelapse I have to use the G5. They really should bring those back. I REALLY don't like the AI tagging my photos for me and no way to turn it offf (that I know of yet). But I like the Manual Video and Cine Video options. They should take out the AR Stickers and Food and put back the MultiCam Video/photo option and the Timelapse. these are the only things..otherwise I really love it and get lots of compliments on the photos it takes.

I've yet to see a comparison between the V30 and the G8. Maybe I didn't search hard enough. The specs seem to be outstanding for the G8. By the way sir, it was by watching your videos that inspired me to buy the ZTE Axon 7 a couple years ago. Still have it and it is by far the best sounding phone that I've ever heard.

So I did a thing today. I've been rocking my LG G6 for the last 2 years and it's been a really good phone for me especially with the ThinQ updates LG pushed to it in the last year. I've always loved the cameras on this thing with the wide angle shooter that has captured some amazing pictures that certain iPhone loving family members have been kinda jealous of and just can't match. Although I've been tempted by the Google Pixel, Samsung S10 and several other phones I just had a hard time justifying spending the premium price on them. I've been reading and watching a lot or reviews, mostly mixed about the LG G8 but felt like you that it was a better phone than most people gave it credit for. Especially since most (not all) of the concern could be fixed with software updates as was done on the G6. Then Sprint offered up the G8 for 50% off it's 18 month lease making the total out of pocket cost at just $315 over the course of the lease. That pretty much sealed the deal for me but then they threw in a $150 Visa Gift Card if you bought at least $75 worth of accessories. Thanks for your honest review and blunt opinions. It certainly helped me in my decision process. ~Cheers!

Lika manual camera features or the great audio experience it offers. Just one thing I have to say you've gotten wrong here: There still are boot loops on recent LG phones. My father got them on his G7, he tried everything but it was unfixable. In the end he had to go for another brand.

Just switched to LG G8 (in Oct 2020, $170 on ebay) from using a plethora of blackberry phones -Z10, Leap, Passport (my true love), Keyone (now a backup). Only gripe is no LED notification but will try the always-on screen. Bright screen 3500mAh were a priority as my blackberries did really will with battery life and screen brightness. I REALLY miss the convenience button on the Keyone, it would mute phone call mic or turn on flashlight. Super awesome cameras were a bonus, I wish HDR10 10bit was on the super-wide, but I'll take solid electronic stabilized 4k60p on the ultrawide.

I'm a T-Mobile customer so it's not a big deal, can get a temp unlock for 45 days and then soon there after can get it completely unlocked in black, red was $70 more and I case my phone anyway.' Today accidentally cracked the screen on the S10+, making arrangements for it's repair and will wait till the LG comes in. I count my self lucky maybe only 3 times since the 90's I broke or lost a phone. I'm excited, maybe night black but OK with it, Maybe I'll like black better since the vast majority of cases get then in black, dark blue or a real dark grey. Thanks for your information. BTW Samsung also sets it phones at at HD+ to, Also you get a temp unlock for 30 days, through their app.

Agreed! I'm still using my g6 and it still works great. Even love the build of the phone. Feels solid compared to the polished pebble feel of others. Call quality and sound top knotch. LG has been on top for me for years now.

Nice to see honest well thought out reviews on real user experience rather than someone else just jumping on the 'bash the unpopular kid' band wagon. I was looking for a great deal on a used phone for an MVNO but want flagship features. Sad that LG is out of the phone business now, they were really getting to be a great option and I'm excited to get my hands on this model. Unfortunately couldn't find a red one which I love the looks of, but thanks for the case recommendation. I don't understand all these people with cracked screens acting like having a phone as slippery as a wet bar of soap is the only way to go. Also, if this phone had Apple or Samsung logo on it and was more expensive, the masses would have thought it was the best thing ever.

The colorful settings menu is not different than Android One...just saying...The skin is super light compared to their older skins. LG is just very conservative with their software and hardware.

I am really struggling between the G8 and the pixel 3. I love the pixel fluidity in everyday use and amazing camera. But that G8 screen and headphone jack and storage is pulling me that way. What's your honest opinion?
@N-e.o 5 жыл бұрын
G8 ofcourse, the G8 is packed with all the hardware features possible in a smartphone. DAC audio + hand ID/gestures, boom sterio speakers & True real 3D secure face unlock, good looking too, i got the G7 at the moment and i can tell you the UI is amazing too packed with neat features

I just got this phone last week since i got it for $420 brand new from tmobile for trading in my g6. Although im really really liking this phone there are a few issues. 1. This phone is slippery as hell and there aren't that many options for cases as i would like. This will definitely require a case so it won't slip outvyour hands. 2. The screen as a speaker for an earpiece is not that great, at times there is a weird static noise. 3. The "boom box" speaker is horrible and I'm still trying to mess with the settings to get it to sound good. But I'm honestly shocked at how bad it sounds. 4. I notice some people say they don't hear me at times to well. Just have to get used to how i need to hold the phone by my face. 5. The hand recognition crap is just not going to be used. 6. Camera is not bad but it isn't too much of a step up from my g6 All other features and specs are phenomenal.

I remember when I used to love LG. I had LG G2, G4 with amazing camera, G5 SE with even great camera and had a brilliant wide angle and when I wanted to upgrade to v30 I realized it had 5megapixel front camera and I was so disappointed. My love for LG died then...

@@harysviewty no sir this is lg flagship phone of 2019 the v series more competes with the note which is like an ultra premium flagship of you will. The g8 is competing with the s10 the iphone xs or 11 all which have telephoto lens so them omitting the telephoto lens in the US is kinda a head scratcher
