LG G5: LG at MWC 2016

20 February, 2016
LG brought nothing short of its A-game to MWC 2016. The G5 is quite different from its predecessor, yet still a head-turner. An always-on display, LCD at that, is one thing but with the modular add-on concept LG is different on purpose.

      Design is bad, for the premium price, we expect premium design

        It`s clearly "inspired" by the Nexus 6p(same design language), which is a bit of a letdown since LG always made great original designs.
        2,800mAh battery is a bit too small for 2k res, will barely get you through the day(but I guess that was the idea for users to buy modules with bigger battery later on)
        Dual cameras are really nice(have Honor 6+ and it`s a dream for macro shots)
        No app drawer is a no problem for me and I actually prefer it.
        The phone has huge bezels for today's flagship standards.
        In short I am a little disappointed, but looking forward to having an on-hand experience with it(especially the new look of the UI)

          weewee, 21 Feb 2016im sure lg will fix what you call poor later, maybe in g6. ... moreAt first I used to get angry at this type of statement, then I started to become annoyed, then I started to laugh, and now I simply feel pity.

              No Stinky design. Android Authority says it looks much better in reality than in photos. Awesome Phone Overall.

                Well done LG G5 I can't wait to get a personal feel of this beauty. Samsung and Apple time to copy the new innovation from LG.

                      ithehappy, 21 Feb 2016Even from LG's standard its looks really poor.im sure lg will fix what you call poor later, maybe in g6. the most important is : lg gives us something new, an innovation that will be improved later.
                      its better than samsung, who always produce the same things (and keep copying apple) over and over again.

                          Damn LG. At first, I wanted to praise LG G5, but seeing that they removed a lot of very important features like

                          -app drawer,
                          -dual window,
                          -Q slide,
                          -and probably FM Radio

                          I have to say that LG you are retarded.

                          I want an LG V10 with Snapdragon 820. That would be the perfect phone.

                            this is the real innovation.
                            good job lg. very very good job.
                            samsung must learn from lg, not just keep copying things from apple (3d touch, samsung pay, etc)

                              I loved LG because of the legendary G2 it had top notch performance, very small bazels that made it portable despite its big screen and outstanding battery to let it stand all day.
                              With G3, they almost kept the bazels, but ruined the battery and performance however got too big for my liking. G4 got even bigger and heavier than G3, with even bigger bazels and worse battery autonomy. And now G5 is yet bigger and heavier than G4, with yet bigger bazels and smaller battery capacity and despite the bigger size and bazels and smaller battery, it even had a smaller screen. So our ways part here LG good luck to your journey of offering bigger phones with lesser screens and batteries... I appreciate the efforts for the innovations, but will opt for another flagship!

                                battery capacity is a big disappointment!!! also no amoled screen!

                                  I'm sorry LG about yesterday's backlash 😢😢😢 the phone isn't ugly to me the design just looks a little odd cos maybe we are not used to it

                                        Pix, 21 Feb 2016You know what? You guys should try designing a smart phone ... moreDude it looks like crap. Innovating ID great but innovating just for the sake of innovating isn't that great. I mean the phone looks like crap really. LG ID a multi billion company and this is what they come with? Give me LG's budget and resources and I can come up with something 10 times better.
