I've had 4 amoled samsungs and all of them have had burn in or some other sort of screen defect. Going for the G5 because of lcd, radio and removable battery.

According to GSMArena's battery life scores, the G5 does not last as long as even the G3, which is way way down GSMArena's list, although the V10 is even worse. Pathetic, deal-killer. LG's biggest weakness is battery life and why I will never buy another LG phone until they get this right.

AnonD-519716, 28 Mar 2016I completely agree with you! S7 Edge will be my next phone!... moreThat's because of an outdated processor which drains more battery, a degraded battery used for 2 years, and a less battery efficient display :P

Anonymous, 28 Mar 2016What burn in issues? I haven't experienced any burn in issues.If you ever had a plasma screen before, if you leave a static image displayed on the screen for some minutes or hours, this specific image might leave permanent ghostly outline of that image on the screen regardless you turn it off/on.

Anonymous, 29 Mar 2016No. Its objective.
Which you prefer is subjective. What ha... moreAmoled has some flaws;
at low brightness the screen gets pink, because red needs less power to be lit than green or blue. That affects the white SO BAD! that's why I stick to IPS.
it degrades, it's organic, and will get dimmer over some years, also deposit a green tint over the screen.
Good old Burn-in damages. Just like Plasma, after some months/years, some burnt images may get stuck on the screen.
Also honestly, all Amoled screens I've seen are too saturated... idk it's like, colour elements lacks white (take for example, mixing white paint to red, you get pink), it's as if, instead, you mix few white paint, red, and lots of water to get another kind of pink. haha

Which you prefer is subjective. What has the technical objective advantages is not subjective.
In terms of brightness, contrast, choice of saturation or accuracy, cool or proper white point, blacks, power consumption, space required, viewing angles, light bleed, uniformity, and such.
There is no contest. Samsungs top amoleds are leading the world.

LG phones are famous for losing more than 50% of their value with an year of launching
LG G flex 2 - Launched Janurary at 650 USD - November 250USD
LG G4 - Launched April 2015 at 650 USD - March 300 USD
Guess I will have to wait for an year to get it at a price, the phone is actually worth.
