Anonymous, 04 Nov 2019B & HNovember 12...about two weeks after available by carrier (AT&T) it will be available at B&H, which seems to be THE online retailer for the latest LG phones. I got my V30s there a year ago.

How bout some real questions instead of the Samsung trollers...
Contemplating this phone but wow did the weight increase--we are now in Note 8 territory of 190+ grams just for the main phone itself. V30 was at 155g so doubt that was due to the battery size increase. The cameras also seem to have been upgraded and how nice is it to not have any camera hump to deal with.
For many people still, the main reason for this phone vs the others is the Quad DAC. However, the volume seems to be lower here than on the previous V series per your measurements (vs V30 and V40, which I currently have). That''s always been then case when in "regular" impedance mode, but 45+ ohm headphones will trigger hi-impeance mode with noticeably more power. Was that mode tested on this?
Sure would be nice if *EVER* LG would let us change our own impedance gain value! We are not stupid enough to put 8ohm IEMS on high impedance--but I doubt that option is offered here once again...
Can you show a screens shot of the audio options/effects pageof the Quad DAC to see if anything was added (or removed)?

Ive had g3, g4 and g6. All great phones that died within a year, all same problem, told myself to never buy their phones again. This phone and the attachment looks good BUT boring as hell. Notch on the second screen - really? That big opening in the back cover, for what? 2 (only) undsrwhelming back camera? I love the second screen and the possibilities of usage for it but they need to be bolder.
My biggest issue with LG is that they abandoned the UAE market altogether, they were losing sales but instead of making a good marketing push they just allowed themselves to loose ground. Cant even find anyone selling LG phones here anymore. They left, so the fans moved on.

Shanti Dope, 03 Nov 2019But we could blame both either way.
The 2015 Qualcomm flag... moreDual screen, dual bootloop from innovator from LG.
I would like to thank the administrator for deleting my previous post about bootloop.
It was just my opinion as a previous user of LG G3.
Was acceptable for 10 months even the throttling make it sluggish but then suddently got bootloop.
So this is the quality is offering LG for their phones.
I'm in a big doubt that they massively improve their qc.
Beside that their enginneres have questionable experience. The best example for their profesionalism is the design they made on LG G3.
They fit a screen with a pixel density that was maximum resolution for the gpu(as per Qualcomm spec)so the problems just started.
Unfinished drivers, overheating chipset... and so on.

mihaidenis, 02 Nov 2019It is not Qualcomm to blame for poor design of the phones.Period.But we could blame both either way.
The 2015 Qualcomm flagship chipsets are simply power inefficient, to the point that they're risky to be used under extremely heavy usages, as they tend to get smoking hot enough to fry an egg.
And I do blame the internal design of smartphones as well.
Xperia Z3+ and Z5 series had overheating problems, but never to the point of it to cause bootloop, and that's practically because of great internal design and engineering by Sony.
Even OnePlus 2 didn't face such problems. The HTC One M9 was technically free from the issue as well.

Nice one. I think this will be my next phone.
I’ll use the phone on it’s own when out and about and add the second screen when at home.
Brilliant.
