I can only speak from my own experience. I'm sure not everyone has been as lucky as me. I imported an LG V30+ from a Hong Kong retailer, but the manual is in Indian. Manufacture date January 2019. Like I said, the display is gorgeous. I've had an iPhone XS Max and while the LG V30+ has slightly more color shift off-axis, there isn't much between the two imo. No graininess that I can see. I never said that the display was perfect btw, but it's exceeded my expectations. I was expecting something shoddy like the Pixel 2 XL, since they apparently used the same pOLED.

May be you got a perfect display (not grainy) on your unit which is directly imported by korea that doesn't mean LG has improved their P-OLED panel for their recent V30/plus devices. Many users on flipkart with recent purchase reported same grainy issues on their review you can also see there and also hardware rev 1.1 is not directly related to updated display panel. I also got grainy display on my device which i had purchased this month by reading your review here and damn a big disappointment with the same grainy display. Don't behave like a LG representative here and there.

But that's my choice so others may vary. With LG V30, headphones of 50 ohms impedance or higher gets more drive from the in-built headphone amplifier hence more volume.

      With V30, I generally prefer to use my Brainwavz HM5 for critical listening. These cans are of 64 ohms impedance and the sound quality is phenomenal when paired with V30. These neutral sounding over-the-ear closed-back headphones provides precise instrumental and vocal details throughout the entire sound spectrum with awesome stereo separation. Bass heads beware as HM5 are made for studio monitoring hence you get just the amount of bass as the music director intended. No muddy, over-powering, ear-drums exploding bass here. :-)

      For causal listening I go for Cowon EK2 in-ear earphones. EK2 is one of the few earphones where I experienced the openness which are generally associated with open-backs. Well detailed and composed EK2 to me beats headphones twice or thrice its price.

        Android Pie will come by June end. Officially announced by LG again.

There is some blue shift but that is too be expected. I don't think it's as bad as any other OLED display. Doesn't appear to be any graininess either. I've had it on white background and can't see any. Early days but over all I'm very pleased with the device! Love the build quality, it's light in the hand but still premium. And of course that quad dac

Congratulations on being one of the lucky ones! I've ordered myself a LG V30+. I hope the screen issues are minimal. If not, I'm sure I can live with it. I only need the phone for a few months. I need a new phone but none of the current flagships appeal to me.

                                    I bought it last month and i switched from iPhone to android!! TOTALLY I LIKED IT! and the cameras are amazing especially while travelling BUT I found a few bothering things:

                                    1- 3mm audio jack went noisy while charging
                                    2- no internal voice recording which is a bad screen recording
                                    3- many tasks are painful since it is android including posting story on Instagram

Still, I bit the bullet and bought a new V30+ (HW rev 1.1) and am glad to report the display is great. Plays my HDR10 videos and I cannot see any grain or uneven colors anywhere.

                                      Your mileage may vary as LG's problem is panel quality consistency but when it is done right, it is really good. Battery life is better than the 3300mah implies and performance is great, the only weakness is no android pie yet but it works great so far on 8.0, no crashes bugs or other things.

                                        I'm looking at buying this phone but worried it uses similar panel to Pixel 2 XL with graininess and blue shift?
