The first one is made for US carrier Verizon, (LM-G900VM) in Red color. Comes with SD765G and 6GB RAM. Built-in memory is 128GB (UFS 2.1), Single SIM support, hybrid SIM slot with MicroSD card support (up to 1TB). The battery capacity is smaller at 4,000mAh.

The other one is a Korean unit (LM-G900N), built by LG for SK Telecom of South Korea. Illusion Sunset color. This has more RAM at 8GB along with 128GB (UFS 2.1) built-in memory, Dual SIM support, hybrid SIM slot with MicroSD card support (up to 2TB). The battery capacity is also higher at 4,300mAh.

Both are running on Android 13 with 1st July, 2023 android security patch. Out of the two the Korean LM-G900N in better as it is butter smooth to operate with 8GB RAM and have more battery backup. With the Verizon LM-G900VM unit I have sometimes observed slight laginess in UI.

What set LG Velvet apart from other Snapdragon SD7XX phones are the built quality, awesome exterior design, great stereo speakers and one of the best audio quality through headphone jack. And the tall curved FullHD 172.7mm OLED display is a sight to behold.

    Sandeep , 21 Jan 2024How the DAC sound on this one ???LG Velvet has the best audio implementation of any Qualcomm Snapdragon SD7XX based phones. The audio quality through headphone jack is very good. Additional QuadDACs found on LG V series phones have even higher audio performance.

Now many future choices need to be GG6 or newer. Didn't also expect the size to be similar to most flagships. I thought the biggest ones were the Samsung Ultras but no even the S24 has similar diagonal screen lol.

                I know LG Mobile is out of business, but sometimes I use extra backup phones for listen to music and video files or YouTube just the basic, I would recommend this phone again, I had this phone for 5yrs now haven't had one single problem, but I am gonna switch back to Samsung again.

                    I've had this phone for three years now. It really is an amazing phone and the camera is actually staggering when you set it right. The sound is very good. Leaves iPhone in the dust. It's also really rugged, despite its sleek design. I've taken this think through a LOT. It just does not break. The biggest shortfall is the UI. It LAAAAAGS. (Note: it's just the drag down menu and lower buttons that lag. Apps and games don't lag at all). LG has major issues with their UI that they never did fix, and I think this is the biggest reason that they failed in the smartphone market. If they had the skill to make a smooth functioning UI, they would have probably had a lot of the market.

                          LG did not want to invest money in the smartphone department.

                                Have anyone faced ghost-touch issue? Bought two phones and after several months both phones started to show ghost-touch issue in lower mid section of the display and finally ended up ruining the whole display!

                                  I have the single SIM version and it's awesomely smooth. Updated to android 13.
