LG V50 Review: The Monster Sleeper Phone of 2019
Рет қаралды 379,629
4 жыл бұрынLG V50 ThinQ Review! One of the most powerful phones of the year. One of the best multi-media experiences available. One of the best options for mobile content creation. All that and a 5G radio, for the same price as an iPhone 11 Pro with half the storage and an Intel LTE radio.
So why aren't more people talking about this phone?

Mike Jaques I think the problem also relies on their design, both hardware and software, and their lack of useful innovation. Under the screen optic fingerprint sensors are really fast and reliable, so there was no point to having a standard one. Also, people don’t care about hand gestures, not even the better implemented ones on the Pixel 4 are worth mentioning, so worsening the front design for them is a total loss when it comes to wooing costumers. Many people bought the S10s because of their wow factor, the only thing LG has to do to have an amazing looking phone is to get rid of the back fingerprint scanner, implement a teardrop notch, and reduce the bezels to almost nonexistent. It shouldn’t be hard to do with LGs size and experience with screens.

Has LG continued to use that 10-bit camera image sensor they started using on the V30? I just bought the Amazon prime exclusive LG V35 and was wondering if the main sensor on it has the same 10 bit sensor that they had also on the V30. And I'm wondering also about the V40 and V50 here.

Watching on the LG G6. Love your review. I'm no audiophile, nor content creator, but this phone really shows that you can have it all: triple rear cameras, headphone jack, reliable fingerprint reader, expandable storage, nice flat display. I can count on one hand how many phones in 2019 have all of those features. While I doubt that this will be my next phone, I really do appreciate your take on this product. My experience with the G6 can be described as lackluster after the 1.5 year mark. I haven't received any software updates; the durability of the glass covering the camera lens gave out; battery life and overall performance diminished; and there was a period where the charging port was unusable due to false positive readings of water in the phone. This has, unfortunately, turned me away from LG.

My wife's pixel 3xl takes better shots but it's newer and I think most of its in the software.

The v40 wasn't compelling enough for me to upgrade but I'm soon to purchase the v50. The irony of it all, with all of the flagship features of this mobile device you can purchase them pre-owned on eBay unlocked for less than $350. I'm about to buy one and will keep my v30 as well. Keep shining light on the fact that LG makes a great product even if they suck at it.

But I fear soon enough beyond those LG will follow Apple/Samsung into curved glass edges, no headphone jack, dumbed-down controls for video/audio, lower-res screens, giant camera bumps. So the V50 may be the last phone I can stomach any company is going to make.

Watching on my LM-V500N (Korean model). As an average user wanting to learn more about the huge capabilities of this most underrated smartphone of 2019, couldn't agree more with you Sir Juan. Bought during 9.9 sale for SGD 590 (USD 430) which is a real bargain (for me though). No need for dual screen as one is enough. Sharp QHD screen, excellent FIVE cameras, colossal video stabilization, almost extinct audio headjack, true Quad DAC, super fast data download/upload, long lasting battery, fast 18W charge, 10W wireless charging, IP rating, MIL-STD compliant, expandable storage, easy-to-use one handed, faultless design with no camera hump, not too heavy like all those you-name-it Pro's smartphones. The joy of stabilized ultra wide video shots is enormous!

I'd actually kill for a refresh of the V10 with the same camera layout as the V50 and new specs. I loved how "prototype-y" the phone looked with that rubberized battery cover and dem stainless steel rails. It was really a G4 on steroids.

What I appreciate about your LG reviews is that you thoroughly explain why it is the best phone for your use case. I never walk away thinking "wow what an LG fanboy" because you explain exactly why it excels in many areas for a content creator. For my myself I don't prefer their skin and lack of software updates but I can certainly appreciate what they are trying to do. I think one thing we can agree on is that they need to step up in their marketing efforts to present their USP as you do for them lol.

I wish I could afford one. That price point is why I've had my cracked screen Stylo 2 for over four years, which is still running strong. Btw, when you threw shade on LG's battery history, I couldn't help but chuckle. Great vid, keep fighting the good fight!

For the last few years, I've been using a LG V10 (the photography clone performer of the LG G4, but with better audio and video recording capabilities). I'm still impressed with the rear camera picture quality. The LG V50 ThinQ is not available in my country, yet! (not even on 'online' stores). I ordered a LG V40 (brand new) a few days ago by half the initial retail price! I hope I won't get disappointed with the main rear camera picture quality! I've been reading mixed reviews about it, altough I know that LG released camera software updates, meanwhile, too! I'm expecting the same picture quality of my LG V10, at least! I have been subscribing your channel since a few months ago! You're one of the few KZfaqr's that gives enough credit to the LG brand! I have been satisfied with my LG V10, otherwise, I wouldn't order or consider getting a LG V40! The V40 will arrive on Monday! I'm still using my LG V10, right now! My best regards.🙏😎💪

Really like the review. Great attention to detail about things that really matter when it comes to what people want in a smartphone. I'm not a fan boy of LG but I do appreciate their phones. I had the V10, V20, V30 and now the V40. Unfortunately T-Mobile didn't carry this phone in their lineup this time around for the V-series. The LG V50 is no doubt a steller phone. Looking forward to what LG has in store with the G9 and V60 to see if I will continue to use an LG phone in the future. 😎
