Phone is very solid both psychically and software wise. Clearing cache with built in cleaner does crash some apps on first launch but usually isn't much of an issue. Cameras are both very great, 16mp main taking some phenomenal images out in the day while the 8mp wide lacks the wider aperture but still takes a great image if the scene has a good amount of light. Manual mode on both video and for pictures does exactly what you'd expect. Very handy for when auto mode doesn't give you what you want. Night shots are good but it's much better to use a sort of tripod if possible. Instagram seems to be the only misbehaving app I've used with crashes few and far between. Getting a battery case is highly advised as the back of the phone is removable. Battery cases are such a life saver and they help add weight when trying to steady yourself to take pictures/video. Again, very solid phone and would highly recommend it as the prices have dropped significantly!

Anonymous, 23 Feb 2018V30 is worse, because that doesn't have removable battery.While the v30's battery isn't "hot swappable", there are youtube videos of users demonstrating how to open up the back of the phone and replace the battery.
My last two phones were both LG with removable batteries and I never bought or replaced the battery for them throughout the time I was using them. Now I'm using a phone with a larger, sealed in battery and if after two years if I need to take it to a shop and pay them $50 to replace the battery I'm actually quite ok with that. Funny people spend hundreds to replace a cracked screen but freak out at the idea of paying $50 to replace a battery. Apple's only charging $29 now to replace batteries in iPhones with is super reasonable and I have a feeling other manufacturers are going to start following suit, so much for "planned obsolescence".
I'm all for removable batteries, but battery life off one charge is still more important. Everyone has their needs and uses but for me I'd rather have a phone with a larger sealed in battery than a phone with a smaller removable battery. When the phone is also a unibody sealed design it also makes incorporating waterproofing and wireless charging a lot easier, too. I also don't like how when you have removable batteries it generally leads to markets being flooded with fake batteries which was so frustrating with my S3 it was impossible to find a legit battery for it in the developing country I was working in at the time.

Anonymous, 23 Feb 2018V30 is worse, because that doesn't have removable battery.And without exclusive slot to micro SD, without IR blaster and with 18:9 screen ratio.
LG mobile regretted to distance itself from the policy of programmed obsolescence with the V20, correcting with the V30.

AnonD-738047, 16 Feb 2018So I was looking for early to mid range phones and came acr... moreThe LG V20 is superior to basically any of the devices you mentioned as well as any other present, new or current mobile smartphone devices available.
The LG V20 succeeded the Samsung Note4.
The LG V20 is the last greatest smartphone of all time after the Samsung Note4.(unless we see a yet to happen true successor).
The only thing the LG V20 does not have factory equipped is IP67/68/69 water-resisting, wireless charging and a bigger battery over the original 3220mAh capacity.

So I was looking for early to mid range phones and came acroos this giant. It's only $250 in my country (refurbished model). I have these questions,
1) Does the camera shot 1080p 60fps video? How's the quality?
2) Will quad dack work on my cheap $10 earphone?
3) I know the seller, he keep telling me his refurbished phones are as good as new but I'm not sure about that. Should I buy one?
4) How is the selfee camera?
Other alternatives at this price are Oneplus 3, Galaxy s7 active, G5. However, on paper the features (removable battery, second screen, etc.) Look really unique.
