User opinions and reviews

This phone will get very slow over time especially after updating to android 10.
However it's pretty usable even after a few years.
Mine still works almost fine (I replaced the screen because I broke it and the fingerprint no longer works).
Your experience will be very painful if you come from a high refresh rate panel.
I'm typing this comment from my Stylo 5.
I absolutely love just how wide this phone is because it makes typing more pleasant and more accurate imo.

    I have this phone for almost 4 years. sometimes runs slow or freeze. both cameras ( front and back has low resolutions) but for me is ok. just using the phone for calling and texting. I don't use instagram or tiktok. or else the phone will die. as the cpu and memory are low.

      The worst camera that Lg has ever made, it says 13 mp but it works like 3 mega pixels.

        Phone worked fine for me. It lasted for maybe two or three years and then it began to stop charging and wouldnt charge in general. It went dead insanely fast, and it was even just one phone, did it to both of mine. But its very bulky amd survived two wrecks, overall good but its still got many erros

          This phone is WAY too wide, over 3 inches in width! I have destroyed it dropping it so many times, next phone will be smaller in width, and hopefully height as well. Definitely a two handed phone, definition of a "Phablet".

            I bought this in 2019 still using it no issues. I use Straight Talk, so I don't have issues connecting, I also used it in Afghanistan, no issues. The SIM card has everything to do with how your unit will perform, make sure you have an updated sim, and you will be fine. FYI I do have a $700 phone as well, same carrier.. Again no issues. But his phone has better picture quality and performance ..

              BJ, 23 May 2021Bought a LG Stylo 5 as a gift for my husband less than 2 y... moreMine is going strong for 3 years now. Not an expensive phone so was paid off when I got it. One of the reasons I avoid the overpriced $1000.00 phones. Too much money and most people I know who have to have them always have issues with them lots of issues with them..... That's the issues with the overpriced status phones all brands have. Some are far worse off than others.....

                  Since the phone is slowing down significantly, I added Artic MX4 to the CPU. It helps the lagging.

                    Maybe when the geeks were sucking down red bulls and designing this pos they should have cut the number of features in half and made it so you access them especially since they were to cheap to include any instructions with this brick. Features which the user can't access or control are useless. Everyone doesn't want to sit and play with phone 24 hrs a day like the freaks that designed this. maybe they should have spent more time getting the features it has to work right be they put 1000 features in this POS.

                      My LG can no longer connect to the network as of July 16th around 6AM EST. Tried multiple fixes and tests but I'll make it short:
                      SIM card still works in other phones.
                      Phone can load and unload contacts from SIM.
                      Factory reset the phone to make sure it wasn't a software issue. Still no network on boot.
                      Phone had no network issues before then.

                      Unless some software settings survived the factory reset, I figure it might be a hardware issues. It's a shame phone's don't last.

                                  my Lg stylo 5, was newly released 2019 so we bought 2 . Now 2021 we get told that it is not compatible to 4G or 5G that it is outdated 3G phone and that we need to buy new ones. WTF so this phones are going to cost me $200 per year per phone??That's ridiculous, I am not complaining about that the phone when you hang up, that it calls that person right back, so I have to shut the phone dept. down from the phone. I finally just learned how it works.
