Sellers try to pass them off as normal occurrence to buyers. And those burn free ones might end up with them after buying. Beautiful colors don't mean anything if you end up spending 50% of the phone's value.

        At present I'm using a case with an inner 5.000 mAh battery, that adding the 5.500 mAh battery fitted in the V20, (with their original back cover), offers a pretty good amperage driving the device.
        It's been six years since I used this combo and I had even forgotten about it.

              MLAVRA, 30 Apr 2023It's time to say goodbye. After five and a half years,... moreMy priority buying a pair of V20's, six years ago (due to audio purposes editing video), was their audio quality and the tip of the V20 features, added to my priority is what you miss in the Samsung and what for me, as long the processors hold, is essential.
              Good luck with the Samsung model and their battery!

                It's time to say goodbye. After five and a half years, the longest time spent with one mobile phone, I left my (still working) LG V20 in the drawer and switched to, I'm ashamed to admit, the Samsung A52s 5G. Why from a flagship to an advanced mid-ranger? First I decided that I would not pay more than 400 EUR for the phone. Next, I carefully considered the features and characteristics: with its SD 778G and 8GB of RAM, it's noticeably faster than the V20, and since I'm not a heavy gamer, it neither heats up nor slows down during operation.
                Of course, there is NO option to replace the battery and although it does not have a bad factory battery, you have to wait for it to charge! But it HAS two other features that are also slowly dying out, namely SD card and 3.5mm jack. The sound quality is not as good as the V20, but it is acceptable for travel, when you are on the phone. NO infrared transmitter which I used very often and NO FM Radio (which I used very rarely). It has an excellent display that is "only" HD: honestly, I hardly notice the difference in resolution. The absence of a secondary display is compensated by a combination of an always-on display and an edge panel, but LG's solution was more beautiful.
                Of course, it supports VoLTE, 5G and other new and fancy features and all the programs on it (and those that were choking on the V20) work flawlessly. However, I do not believe that I will like it so much that I will use it for the next 5 years.

                    Once you've owned one of these, any phone you'll ever have again will be a downgrade in one way or another.

                    Here we are 7 years later, screens are lower res. Removable SD card isn't a feature anymore.

                    V20 has HI-DAC Audio ou through 3.5mm Jack, 2023 phones have NO audio Jack.

                    16MP camera shoots 4k, you might finally have a TV in your living room with higher res (7 years later)

                    I see so many complaints in comments about "battery life" and "reception"

                    Battery life: that's why it's removable, carry a spare, there is no phone on market with 6400mAh. Dead battery? Instant full, you wish your tesla could!

                    When in the age of 3G + 4G (v20 could use all its antennas) reception was fine.

                    The way the market is going, there will NEVER BE A BETTER PHONE.

The H918 is definitely one of them which is the one I still use on T-Mobile's Network without issue because it has the required VoLTE "Call over Data connection". The VS995 may also work on Verizon but I'm not sure for how long. As for the battery, being that is removable can be changed. If You like the slim factory style, Shenmz makes a good one (4380 mAh) that I've been using for over a year. Gets Me a full day use. It's on the Bay for under $20 USD. I have extended batteries for long hauls. Those are also reasonably priced. Out of those I prefer the Taeozi 10800 mAh. That one goes 3 days easy! Wishing You luck!

                          I've owned two of these phones and have
                          to admit it's full blown with power features
                          any gamer and multimedia enthusiastic
                          would want but fails on reception quality
                          and battery life... you might be able to get
                          away by upgrading to a bigger aftermarket
                          battery but in my experiece the phone gets
                          hot... as for reception you might need to go
                          outside to get some better reception..

Plug the charging cable in one way, if that doesn't work then flip it the other way. You could also clean the port or have it cleaned. Just something to try. Which Variant do You have?

                              I've a pair bought in May, 2017 and August of the same year. Working both of them at present without problems.
                              I think that sometimes any unit could came with defects.

                                Well. My fully stock V20 with fully original battery, etc, lies right beside me and has boot looped for 30 minutes. Trying to heat it up with fast charging as much as possible to get the data before trashing it. First time it bootlooped, it managed to fully start up after 15 minutes, but now it won't get any further.

                                Afaik RAM was soldered atop the CPU, and these phones gets _hot_. The solderings will melt together and prevent the phone from booting.

                                LG should have learned from mistakes but didn't. No wonder they're out of business. Too bad on a good, albeit fantastically slow, phone.

                                  sola, 22 Oct 2022what about the battery of this v20The battery is removable, thus replaceable. They make thin batteries with a little more juice than stock but still fit the stock backing, which is what I am using now. They also make thick batteries that require the use of a larger backing (usually supplied with the battery). You can get upwards of four days on that one depending on how the device is used. I also have a couple of those. Very handy for long video shoots.

                                        I think that a V20 revival, introducing simply only a more updated chipset and increasing the RAM memory alongside with the ROM, could be a true success.
