Great Mobile and Amazing V series!
but I miss secondary screen little bit my name was visible all times on it lol
I hope V40 comes with 8mp f1.9 selfie at least and 4K 60fps & super slow motion

As there is no person on this site that knows LG better than me. And i am serious when i say that. And i am human, not an ostrich, so no, i am not putting my head in sand. I have done my researches and they are not final, so i have my right to trust LG, not as the guy who knows nothing, but rather as the one that knows something (so i dont say everything, as obviously noone knows everything). As for "it works the same way as Samsungs AMOLED", i was referring to its Active Matrix OLED. POLED is nearly AMOLED just on plastic substrate and it has Active Matrix as AMOLED does (actually, even Samsung uses plastic substrate on their S8's OLED, because plastic can be curved, as it is on the edges). And POLED is just the name that LG has given to their OLED as obviously they cant call it AMOLED because Samsung is using that name. All in all, there are differences in manufacturing materials (except that on S8 family and V30 they used the same materials), calibration, and software. And my guess is that there is problem with calibration or software (GS8 had Red Tint which was fixed with software update, calibration of colors)

      And if "that's how AMOLED works" then why doesn't it work the same way in Samsung's flgaships?

              FeederEater, 29 Sep 2017If you have heard about the imbalanced color problems on V3... moreUmm....looks like y'all haven't read the GSMarena review of the V30. Yes, both use same technology but the panels are different so it is very possible that aren't the same quality

              "Unlike Samsung's AMOLEDs, the V30's screen does show some illumination in the blacks....V30 posts high marks for contrast, out of reach for most LCDs, yet falling short of Samsung's finest....V30's color rendition degrades quite noticeably when viewed at an angle - it gets even bluer. We haven't observed this with recent Samsungs."

              So as you can see, it's more than just white balance of the display. While it's still way better than LCDs it may be unfortunately inferior to Samsung's LEDs.

              And here's the article that started it all and it's from Ars Technica mind you- https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2017/09/lg-v30-hands-on-lgs-oled-displays-still-have-quality-issues/

              HOWEVER, there is hope - these were all pre-production samples so let's see if LG has found a fix for the retail units. May be that's why they're taking forever to launch the phone outside Korea?? (But then again, there are reports that Korean customers have complained about the same display issue)

              I like the V30 and in many ways even prefer it to Note8 but if the screen is flawed it will be a deal-breaker for me...I'm OCD about displays and can't live with shoddy quality

                        I was really hoping for LG to continue with the removable battery. Why would they stop? now I will not upgrade my V20 for no reason other than there was a nicer phone out.

                        Time to start the hunt for a suitable phone again.

                          Nowadays, no phone is perfect. The LG V30 is about 96% of perfection. Dear.

                            Anybody ownership of V30 must give front selfie camera results, it's wide angle but MP 5. Price negotiated be exchanged.
