GigaBite16, 16 Jul 2020 The phone looks awesome and is defiantly an upgrade ove... moreHave to get a snapdragon to get an adreno gpu. I am nearly certain all the mediatek chipsets are paired with mali gpu"s. Even if they had put in the Helio G90T or even the P70, I would have been interested. I was looking for something approaching a 7" screen. Went for the Pocophone F2 pro instead. It's about 150 more than this to buy and it's got a snapdragon 865. This phone here is a bit of a rip-off.

Anonymous, 13 Aug 2020This is a great phone for the money, it is not a gaming pho... moreDon't need to spend a thousand quid for a gaming phone though. The Pocophone F2 pro has a snapdragon 865 and liquid cooling and it costs 340 euros. The redmi note 8 pro has a Helio G90T processor and liquid cooling and is superb for high end gaming while costing around 195 euros so it's just not true to say that this phone that has a huge screen but a very average Helio p35 processor is fine because it's not. There are phones with far better processing power and speed that actually cost less.

Horrible phone.
I have had Android phones for years. Mostly Samsung and Motorolas. For the most pert been very satisfied with their operation. Im not a gamer or big Streaming service user. So mainly basic usage, talk, text, internet searches and some live stream or video watching. First off the lack of a dedicated back button is a complete nuisance. Swiping left to back up a page is ridiculous. Most of the time it takes two or three attempts and when it does work u pray u are still on the same app or same person to text respond and that it hasnt opened up a completely different app or texter.
Picture quality is serviceable but The video recorder is a joke. Grainy at best.
The screen goes completely dark randomly after holding it for a few seconds in the Landscape position. Causing u to have to hit the power button to bring the screen back up.
Have to completely power the phone off and restart when attempting to text videos or photos to someone.
You will accidentally hit the Mute button when talking to someone causing the other person to think u have hung up. I have still not figured out how to un mute the phone once you've muted them. The only way to avoid this is to tap the power button to deactivate the screen completely once youve connected.
These problems are not dedicated to this phone as i bought my daughter the same phone last month when i got mine and she has the same issues.
These are only the major issues. There are several others of smaller consequences that are just annoying. I have only had the phone for a little over a month and if Metro PCS would let me id trade it in in a heartbeat. May just bight the bullet and buy a different phone anyway.

J.Lane, 27 Jul 2020I have the LG Stylo 6, All of you kids who have zero knowle... moreI've had plenty of phones over the last 14 years or so. I'm no newbie. This is, hands down, the worst phone I've ever had. I cannot send any emails with attachments. It's slow as hell. My Sanyo flip phone was faster, lol. It won't load a lot of websites, online menus, etc. Drop-down menus frequently don't work. It freezes all the time and I have to restart it. It frequently doesn't connect to WiFi. The volume goes from super low, to super loud, with no happy medium. Yeah, the stylus feature is nice, but it isn't enough to save it. There are several other problems, but these are the ones I can think of right now. I've had this phone a month and a half. I am trying to get it replaced, but I don't think that's going to be much better. I see in the LG sites that a lot of people are having the same issues, so I suspect the replacement will suck as well. I'm planning on selling the replacement and going back to Motorola.

1st of, I'd like to stat I have been a LG Stylo user since the original. I love the Stylo overall, but since the LG Stylo 4 I feel it's bounced back and forth from being a phone I love, to one I'm looking to replace.
Stylo 6 has some awesome features, most notably for me is it's size, stylus, and battery life also. There is good amount of memory also.
But the cons are huge, and if not changed will lead me to buying outside of the Stylo.
* Lag issue's. Some days it will go unbearable slow. Especially if you are not smart cleaning every few hour's.
* Sometimes the WIFI will drop. I have several devices in my home, this one being the only with the issue.
* Phone reception / LTE is horrible compared to the other phones in the house. I have 3 other phones in the house under the same provider. Where I have no reception, the other phones will have LTE and text/call reception.
Example - Devils Lake, WI
2 out of 3 phones could make calls/texts/access the internet. Guess which one couldn't?
* Sometimes it will not make calls without shutting device on/off
* Sometimes the same will hold true for messages
All in all, love the LG Stylo brand but the 6th definitely needs work. Hopefully we see a upgraded version in the future? I would say this phone is perfect for someone who uses their phone for the basics, and does not travel much.

Picked this phone up yesterday at Cricket for $99.
Excellent phone!!
Great call reception, speakers are as clear as my s20 Ultra, and the resolution is great.
Is it the fastest phone out there?
Nope...and never claimed to be.
It is a well built,attractive phone that really offers a ton of bang for the money. IMHO its superior to the samsung a20.
If it were a bit faster it would be a much more expensive phone.
Idk about others but for me....im DONE paying high dollar for samsung flagships. Seriously....who REALLY uses all a phone is capable of anyway?
This styli will get the job done and have fun doing it all while i spend the 1300 bucks saved on other things.

I originally thought this phone was great.. Until.... Playing simple games and trying to multitask. It has a 3 gb ram and it runs smooth at times but has a random lag that eventually leads to a complete standstill on the phone. I have uninstalled mostly all apps and disabled the virus protection and other non essential apps to try and correct the problem to no avail. It is a beautiful phone but ruined by the mystery freeze. Even live wallpapers seem to give it the extra kick to slow down and it struggles at times going from one app to another. I bought this budget phone with not very high expectations but never realized it would work almost as bad as a 1 gb ram phone. Not sure what went wrong here but I would not recommend this phone to anyone expecting a mid range phone with 3gb ram to run smooth without some sort of lag or freezing issue. Shame because it is a nice looking phone.

This is a great phone for the money, it is not a gaming phone, no phone andriod or Apple is gonna run high end games for $200, but the screen is huge and for a standard phone user its perfect, if your looking for a gaming phone get ready to spend $1000 and stop complaining that a $200 phone wont perform like a $1000 one

If you are a gamer or what they call a heavy user this might not be the phone for you but if you like graphics and social media and a large bright screen to watch videos and post pix on then I will tell you as a Stylo 4 owner I would buy this in a hot second, I actually am going to buy it tomorrow. And for any of you that have never used an LG phone you will love the OS on it, it is such a user-friendly phone very simple to operate in every aspect LG makes things sensible , the screen on my Stylo 4 is so bright and the color is so good that I sometimes wonder where the specs came from? Side by side with my S10 I swear it's a better looking screen!
Unless your gonna do benchmark races with other phones relax and enjoy bc despite what people say you will have a great phone and be laughing all the way to the bank. I hope that helped some of you

This phone is 90% PURE GARBAGE. 🤢🤢🤢
Super laggy, not responsive.
This is my 1st android in 8 years. And i will never own another one. An iphone 4s is still a superior product.

IMO LG is ripping everyone off with this phone. Dont get me wrong, the screen is huge and beautiful, but the specs are too behind to be sold in 2020. The phone i currently have (Xiaomi redmi note 5 ai) has better specs than this - came out 2 years ago and cost 30€ more than this right now. So yeah, to me this would seem like a HUGE downgrade.
