          kenshin, 27 Aug 2021Where can buy that batery 10,500mah for v20 I got a taeozi 10800 mAh. from Amazon for $40 (US). Then I picked up a Perfine 10500 mAh from eBay for $35 (US). Both are excellent and go about 3 days or more of you don't watch a lot of media. I Just went on a 3 day trip no charging and still had 35% when I got back, and that 35% would probably go another day. They Are bulky, but I've always replaced the stock batteries in all of the phones I've had over the years so it doesn't bother me long as I can find a holster that works. For this set up, I recommend a "Puregear Dualtek" They cost about $8 (US) on eBay and hold the phone very well. You will replaced them occasionally due to catching on stuff and normal wear and tear but for $8 no big deal.. Best Regards.

                For everybody that runs FLAC files through their Quad DAC. I have tried a lot of different players over the years as My V20 did not come loaded with a stock player. None have compared to the version of Power Amp I currently run. Their newer engine really woke up the Hi-Res aspect of this DAC. High Impedance Mode is Ridiculous, in a good way. For experienced listeners, is there any other player out there that might squeeze even more out of This Master of the Headphone Jack? Thanks in advance.

                      I've two units, mostly for audio vid edition purposes, but the decision can be at present positive if the main currently unit used say I doesn't work more.

                          Headphone jack with quad dac is amazing for music, display without notch or holes,removable battery,card slot

                          LG is out of mobile business so this phone is an instant classic

                            I got the phone when I was a 16 y.o. girl, looking for which phone to get next. I knew all specifications of it and the competitors by heart because I spent so much time watching reviews on YouTube 😁 This was the most informed purchase of a phone I ever made, and as a result, the V20 is still my favorite phone.

                            I'm at a point in time when I think I will have to be buying a new one, and I'm not looking forward to it as much, because LG was at that sweet spot where their phones were cheap but feature packed. Today, that's Chinese brands like Xiaomi, but I can't bring myself to live with MIUI... Unfortunately, the only choice for me right now is an unexciting midranger (that costs even more than what I paid for the V20 in 2017 on ebay if you don't count the tax of shipping it into my country). I can see myself using the V20 as a secondary phone for a good few more years, until I can't anymore. This is really the last of it's kind. Though, I think I can see people develop an almost unhealthy obsession with this phone 😄 I must've told all my friends and their grandma about how great this phone is and how much I love the IR blaster, the wide-angle selfie cam, the audio, the metal back etc etc. (and probably multiple times, thus annoying them). But it's true.

                            So, anyways, that's my experience with the phone, using it from September 2017. In truth, it felt like cheating the system, getting this phone, because it was so damn cheap, with all its bells and whistles... Goodbye LG, you had a good run. Wow, that reads like a eulogy. Sorry! :D

                              Well I have T-Mobile's assurance that the H918 will still work on their system. Of course I would have to change carriers. No problem. So I found one supposedly with original OS. It might even be a B&O version. Says B&O headphones in the box. It was the last one they had too. It's on the way. Fingers crossed. Cheers!

                                Novice , 25 Jul 2021Is it good deal to buy LG v20 for 74$ in 2021. Just for you... moreabsolutely, at the end of the day it used to be flagship phone so it used high end parts for pretty much everything not just soc,camera,audio dac,screen all those stuff, just because it has been 5 years, doesn't mean it suddenly becomes crap especially comparing to the today low end phone. look at the offering of low end phone today,you're gonna ended up happier with v20, especially in up to 200usd region, low spec, lesser features, and really crappy UI, i've seen many of low up to mid smartphone today that really being destroyed by their pathetic UI, lagging at home screen, that's just pathetic, if you're talking a decent today mid end smartphone or flagship then that's a different story but you won't find it at $74 price point

                                  Novice , 25 Jul 2021Is it good deal to buy LG v20 for 74$ in 2021. Just for you... moretotally. my friend has been rocking it for the last 4 years and it still holds up pretty well (battery capacity is naturally declining tho)
                                  cameras are still great (especially because of laser focus and OIS)
                                  the Snapdragon 820 is still a capable processor, though i have noticed significant lag sometimes when you overload it with tasks/ light-medium gaming. please buy a version with high enough ram

                                      FRILL, 20 Jul 2021Thank you for the input. I don't mind a larger device.... moreit is big though like big big but so far that's the only con in my opinion, if you're not gonna use the dual screen case the battery life is superb

                                      the reason why i mention lg g8x because i have a friend who using v20 and lg g8x and he said the size pretty similar in hand and so far he's alright with g8x
                                      g8x : 159.3 x 75.8 x 8.4 mm (6.27 x 2.98 x 0.33 in)
                                      v20 : 159.7 x 78.1 x 7.6 mm (6.29 x 3.07 x 0.30 in)
                                      v60 : 169.3 x 77.6 x 8.9 mm (6.67 x 3.06 x 0.35 in)

                                      but personally i also more into v60, if i have to deal with super big phone, that's the one i would be very happy with

                                        Anonymous, 18 Jul 2021or lg g8x if the v60 is way too big for your taste, i much ... moreThank you for the input. I don't mind a larger device. This one was on the larger side for it's time. I'm probably not going to get a dual screen. Battery time is my main concern. Followed by the Quad DAC. So if the V20 H918 variant won't work, it's looking like the V60. The 1080p screen should have a positive effect on battery life. Still Hoping I'll luck out with the other variant though. Best Regards.
