    The LG G6 looks like the GALAXY J3, which is a bare basic model. Thumbs down LG.

      I had the first Galaxy S, Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4, Note 3 and the Note5. I also had the Sony Xperia Z1 and the LG G3 and G4, and all of their user-interfaces were awful. The least awful one was the Z1's UI. Tell me more you think you know, Anonymous.

Strange, because I've had the first Galaxy S, Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4, Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy Note5. I also had the LG G3 and LG G4. All of those had a horrible UI. Tell me something else you think you know, please.

            Anonymous, 10 Jan 2017I'm Sony fan but LG is much better than laggy Samsung.I explain to you why LG flagships lag in real life usage. They display 2K screen and the user interface is more complex than native android system. This is one of the reason why I don't choose LG smartphone.

                      The G6 will now reportedly have a 5.7" screen that too in 18:9 ratio.. what's the sense in making such huge phones! I've been looking forward for the launch of G6 but it's out of the running now.

                            LG G* is too big. They ridiculously thinks that making the screen bigger than Samsung's will attract buyers.

                                If LG releases after S8 then people would have already bought S8 and no one cares.
                                If LG releases before S8 then people will wait to see what S8 will look like and still buy S8 anyways.
                                So yeh .. who cares Dear LG ????? ... you are confused brand who has no idea what its flagship device should look like. Sometimes its 5.5 inch (G3, G4) and then cut it down to 5.3 inch (G5) and then again make it 5.7 inch (G6). Who even downsizes their display on a flagship models (G4 to G5) ????? .. sometimes there is dual camera on front, and then there is dual camera on back ... useless brand !!

                                  If two cameras have same amount of pixels but 1 have wider field of view and 2nd hav less, I would say that 2nd will have more details.
                                  People would say that no, 1 will have more details because it have more "details per pixel" but in my opinion this is a wrong terminology. They should say "1 have more detail hiding behind per pixel" because one pixel can show 1 color only.

Different cameras for different things seems a perfectably reasonable thing to ask from a flagship grade phone.

                                    Now if only they would make it less ugly to look at as well.

                                      I hope so that won't look as cheap as G5. And that 2 rear cameras setup is not so useful, they need to put only one, but great camera at the back and make great design.
