Loving my LG V30+. It just feels so good in my hand with it's form factor & light weight.
Screen is gorgeous apart from it's minimal blue shift. (which doesn't bother me)
Battery life is the main surprise for me. Running at dark theme, I'm in no urgency to charge the device during my day. 6 hours SOT++ consistently with around 20% battery left.

All the reviews I have seen to date pitting Snapdragon against Exynos, the latter always beats the former. Exynos (minutely) lags behind in the graphics department but not in any noticeable way. Otherwise I would go for Exynos over Snapdragon anytime. You should consider it too. Oh one more thing, Snapdragon gets excessively a warmer than Exynos on the same scale. Put that in mind as well. Pick your Note bro 😁😁. Fret not.

                Hi
                I have been using this phone for about one month. It has been a great experience so far for me. The battery life is pretty amazing on this phone. Only one small issue with the messaging notification. It pops up repeatly. Anyone please advise how to stop the repeated notifications.

                      I would say that the LG V30 is arguably the best all-rounded smartphone on the market! What more should you expect from a smartphone? Sadly, I haven't had the chance yet to buy it, but I badly want one in the near future to come. Currently, I am using an LG G5 which is also a pretty awesome smartphone, keeping in mind that if the G5 is one of the best for its time, now the V30 is even more improved and simply the best. As an LG and HTC fan, I would say that Samsung, Huawei, Apple and all the other brands are just merely trying to catch up with this masterpiece but the truth is that there's still a long way to go! :)

                          External sd card was reason to buy it (over Mate 10) as it's easy to salvage photos if phone dies, this is where Mate 10 really disappoints me.

                          Summary: not bad phone, but all these 3-4 top hones, Mate, Note, V30+, Apple X should be cheaper. We are still paying too much for features that are normal to expect, none of them is clear winner. None of them has some specific brilliant feature that would make you say, camera on xy phone is 100% better, and i just went for it... Some old Sonny phones have clearer night shots, old Butterfly 3 has 20MP camera and all features as these new ones, old Galaxy S could easily join this gang as well and these older ones have acceptable prices and are just bit lower quality in details. I really expected bigger difference between old and new generation of phones.

                          PS: the reason why I didn't take Note8 into consideration to buy is that phone for EU market isn't snapdragon based - all reviews I have seen are based on snapdragon, so what I read on web is not what I will get if I buy it here in EU.

                            I just got V30+ and I expected more from the camera. Some photos have pale colors, even my cheap old phone had better saturation. Regarding details, 16 MP catches details well, but not spectacular. Regarding wide angle, it's awesome. When doing camera shots where sun is behind the subject - shots are surprisingly good and exposure compensation is surprising good (I don't understand how they managed to achieve this - impressive). Regarding sound quality and quad DAC, it's nothing spectacular, any good media player has equalizer that does the same thing as quad DAC. Sound strength is not strong enough (considering quad DAC), looks like amplifier inside isn't strong enough to cover the noise of the airplane (if you are frequent flyer noise cancellation isn't really good, actually no noise cancellation while using headphones to listen music). Battery life is just for one day with normal use. Night videos if people are moving/dancing can get blurry. Phone comes with no bloatware, so no need to root it and remove crap; my respect for this as well. Back button to turn off the phone is bit inconvenient, side button would be better (reason, when you push back button to turn it on/off, you need to apply counter-force with finger on the screen to keep the phone in your hand, otherwise it will pop-out from your palm). Finger recognition is 100% working all the time. GPS receiver was more sensitive with my old HTC Butterfly 3 (e.g. in the airplane GPS would work on HTC, but here you need to move phone next to the airplane window - metalic body penalty, htc butterfly was all plastic). Summary: I will buy Mate 10 pro, compare it and sell one I like less on the ebay. I love Mate 10 pro IR blaster to control airco and light from my bed.

                                    Went into my local carphonewarehouse today and looked at a v30 and I admit it is a really nice phone but the demonstration model had really bad screen burn in in the background.

                                    Then again they do have them on full screen brightness all day long.

                                      Heavens, Launched in September, and Still scarcely available, Selfie is its main weakness, but price of V30+ exorbitant 800$ for double internal memory. LG gone Nuts one model and could not cater to worldwide supply.Now 845 Soc nxt Qtr nobody's taking chances! Now we can clearly judge Samsung might even after N7 debacle it has given fist class S8 series and N8 and still in Billions profit.

                                        In terms of hardware it manages to compete with Samsung but in terms of Software & UI long way to go to be a with Samsung top notch UI.
