LG G5 is the most underestimated phone in 2016 but the truth is it one the most capable phone of its lifetime.

        Typing on my LG G5 right now and still loving it. Doesn't even have a sim inside anymore since this Sprint G5 (which is unlocked for both domestic and international) can't get T-Mobile data and zero signal with Verizon.

        My G5 is still fast and smooth after two months. I wouldn't be interested in the G6 because I don't like sealed battery, glass rear, and no IR blaster. I relegated my S7 edge into a pocket Wi-Fi device. I hate using it to type and the lag is downright annoying.

        Anyone on the fence, don't listen to the haters and harshest critics. They complained about build quality, mods, or ugly rear when G5 is an excellent device. My silver G5 doesn't show fingerprints either like my S7e. Looks stylish with the front next to the G6.

        One of the best gadgets I have ever owned.

        1. LG G5
        2. Google Pixel

        3. Xiaomi Mi 3
        4. Motorola Moto E 4G
        5. LG G3 Beat
        6. Samsung Galaxy Note 3
        7. Microsoft Lumia 640

        8. HTC One M7
        9. Samsung Galaxy S7 edge

        ^ The lag and curved display palm rejection on the S7e is really, really awful on it. Overrated af. Overheats too just by downloading with TubeMate. So disappointed by the so-called best smartphone of 2016, that I might sell it soon. Samdung experience.

        I just haven't found a good phone I would want to make into my T-Mobile line. Don't like iPhone. Don't need a V20 since it seems redundant having a G5 already. Don't want Xiaomi because of the Mi Suite and not compatible to my MacBook Air. Not into HTC 10. Might end up with OnePlus or Sony.

        I also like how my G5 can be recognized with my MBA with Android File Transfer. My Pixel and Mi 3 can't. G5 and Pixel are still BY FAR the best phones I ever used. HTC One M7 and S7 edge might look better than both but design doesn't matter to me if they aren't reliable and are laggy. G5 is an example to not always listen to the critics.

          For me personally I find the G5 to be a excellent smartphone and for those who are considering it I'd say go for it you won't be disappointed.

          My G5 is connected to a Samsung gear s3 and it works perfectly with no problems at all,I can make calls and text threw the watch even though the G5 is a none Samsung phone and my G5 never reboots or slows down at all and it just makes everything easy plus the replaceable battery is excellent.

          I do also have a HTC 10 connected to a lg G watch r and that's good also what with android bein connected with Android wear and I do swap between the two phones on occasion but I admit my G5 just does everything better compared to the HTC 10 but overall for me personally the G5 is the winner and I admit I do think my next phone will be the G6 even though I lose the replacement battery option.

          The G5 is one of the best phones I've ever had and I will always keep my perfectly working one no matter what phones I buy in the future.

            I have the dual sim LG G5. I received a software update (around 600MB) and installed it 2 days ago. So far, I have noticed a 'little' improvement on the battery life though the issue with image retention is still there but thanks to sFilter (by Siso Mobile) so far it kinda remedy the issue. You can set the opacity and dim to 15%.

                AnonD-650583, 24 Apr 2017Okay. Sticking to my G5 until V30, new Pixel or even new iP... moreI never wanted G6 anyway once it went with a sealed battery and glass rear. If the rumors are true and the V30 becomes waterproof too like the V34 and no removable battery, then I will pick up a V20 for cheap by then.

                I was given a free spare battery and charging (coffin) cradle when I got my G5 two months ago. I know it willl degrade just being inside its package but I still have a peace of mind knowing I can use my G5 longer than my Pixel or S7e.

                When I post comments here, I rotate between 5 different phones. I commented using my G5 and Pixel earlier today. Typing on my S7e right now. Man, it sucks! Laggy and so annoying with the palm rejection. Night and day difference from my other two.

                Thinking of selling it to get the OP3T and iPhone SE ($150 w/ Boost Mobile) but will miss the waterproofing, good wide angle selfie cam, and VR movie experience with it. Planning to keep my G5 for life though like my Xiaomi Mi 3 which still runs smooth after three years.

                  My friend had one and returned it. $80 wasn't worth the external buttons. There is only one colour and the thing wasn't pretty or "must have" But it did have a 1200 mah battery boost in it. But for 80 CAD she just bought a selfie stick and a backup battery kit.

                                  Okay. Sticking to my G5 until V30, new Pixel or even new iPhone come out later this year.

                                  My friend has owned G6 only less than 10 days but still that battery life... meh. Its pretty much same as my G5 when I look at her useage. she gets 4-4.5 hours screen time with about 15hrs use. Turns off location unless need gps, 50-60 brightness and non-gamer but she listens to music, and is a IG, FB and YouTube kind of chick.

                                  So G6 is pretty slick but not enough of upgrade for me and S8 is nice to hold and see and I wanted to buy the s8plus for increased battery... but terrible fingerprint sensor location for design "symmetry" , camera is tiny update, and that damned Bixby button forcing its way onto that phone? No thanks. Ill wait.

                                      i will buy one shortly and wanted to know if removing the bottom part frequently will cause it to be loose afterward. also, compared to s7, how is the camera quality?

                                        I noticed a hint of lag on my G5 when typing on this dialog box using Opera Mini and this site is on its mobile version. I noticed my Xiaomi Mi 3 seems to type faster. All is corrected now. I just downgraded my SwiftKey back to 6.0.x and not 6.5.x. Now it types beautifully. Even updating apps can mess things up like it does with updating firnware.

                                        Texting experience is very important to me. Even moreso than cameras and RAM management. This is why I love AND hate my S7 edge at the same time. That pronounced curves and palm rejection is downright annoying. I will likely downgrade my SwiftKey on all my other phones and lose the country flags emojis but the S7 edge will still have the lag and frustrating palm rejection where nothing inputs.

                                        For SwiftKey lovers, stay at around 6.0.x. Sometimes older is better. Oldie but goodie. My G5 still on Marshmallow rocks even better now. Typing on this flat screen is so fast and smoooth!
