        Anonymous, 11 Aug 2016this vs ZTE Axon 7. who wins??So far, ZTE. Unless the speakers of the V20 are front facing, Dolby Atmos speakers on the Axon 7 literally obliterate every other smartphone released to date.

            Gotta love modern logic. Useless "high end" specs that doesn't matter in practice and 99% of people won't feel any improvement, while they keep neglecting things that need the most improvement and are most noticeable. Like speakers. So this will be a "hifi" device yet you will have another pathetic speaker.

                speakers are a different story because of waterproofing. still good enough.

                  I like this
                  That's what I'm looking for
                  But why not write about recording sound?

                      Lol why is some people demanding 2 speakers to make use of this technology, are they even know what 32bit DAC means? this is supposed to be used with good quality headphones to get higher quality audio, there's nos a single good reasons to consume media with crappy phone speakers instead of headphones (unless your buying the next iPhone).
                      However even if you could hear the difference after 24 bits (which is unlikely) , you need 32 bit music files to take any advantage, otherwise the sample rate is reduced forever after the conversion to digital audio, and since music CDs are capped at 16 bits and online music stores are barely upgrading to 24 bits, it's likely that your entire music collection won't use the full power of this DAC so most people won't get any advantage from this.

                          Not so important feature at all, what important is, the design... And LG must consider removing the annoying modular bs! This is what we want LG!

Its audio quality via headphone jack is quite dissapointing now. Had s7 edge exynos variant and returned it after 2months only because of audio. For me the most pleasing sounding device with headphones on is/are s6 edge plus/note 5 with their wolsfon dac.
