- When it comes to choosing the right smartphone this year, companies like Samsung and LG could not have made it more complicated.
Samsung and LG are both in very different stages with their respective flagship offerings. Last year Samsung was experimenting with metal and glass on the Galaxy S6, and LG decided to play it safe with the G4. Today the tables have turned. Samsung has now decided to refine what it started, while LG has decided to boldly go where no smartphone has gone in a while. As a result we’re left with a very difficult comparison since one product is naturally at a better stage than the other.
Both the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge are the result of a more mature Samsung. The company has acknowledged that looks aren’t everything, and has launched a new line-up of flagships that match good looks with expandability. By contrast, the G5 is the result of a more daring LG. The company knows that power users want a phone without compromise, and the G5 intends to solve these needs in a very creative way.

7:35 Stabilization the same, What No Way!
Just look at the G5 on the left shaking, like your recording while an Earthquake is going on LOL.
+Corey Watford Yeah, I could not believe he REALLY meant it, lol.
Dude, I was about to comment on that. G5 is all over the place. You have to be blind to not see it. :-/
That's an autofocus issue. The image is fairly stable but it can't decide where to focus hence why it gives the effect of an unstable image
+Corey Watford hahaha so true
+Imran Mohammed If it can't focus properly, then it's still an issue nethertheless...
Finally got the G5 today and damn it's was like love at first sight (the gold version). Its very unique in my opinion! I had the G2 (still a beast phone) as my first android mobile then after two years i upgraded to the G4 then after having it a few months i decided to try the Nexus 6P just to try it. There's nothing wrong with the 6P actually i loved it but a manual mode on the camera is a must for me. It was kinda hard to choose between the V10 and G5 but i rather have the wideangle shooter on the G5 because it really take some awesome photos! I'm glad i choosed the G5 :D
I've had the LG G2 for a long time (I love it, i's the phone that I never had any problems with) and I'm about to get my hands on the G5. Good to hear that its so good. :))
how do you think the performance of your G4 before compared to galaxy S6?
Christopher Guevacci same I loved it at first sight idk why ppl hate it
Christopher Guevacci yeahh! i don't understand why people hate it. its an awesome phone!
+Gabriel Presenta because its different i had one too i loved it
I am so sick and tired of some people out there. Most of the reviews about the LG G5 are just complete garbage"the power button is flimsy", " the G5 is rough around the edges, "the G5 was a rushed product and needs refinement". I got my LG G5 yesterday and I didn't see none of that. Instead, I got a bad ass smartphone. Great build, and yes, I love the way it looks, accurate color reproduction, an insanely fast fingerprint scanner and probably the best cameras out there on a smartphone. I have no idea what the hell all those bloggers and whatnot are complaining about the G5.
I rather have a G5 (which is running smooth by the way) than a fingerprint-magnet, amoled-eyesight-killer of a smartphone that are those new Samsung Galaxy S series. Sorry, but I just don't see none of those defects that are being mentioned everywhere.
Bro, I'm about to cancel my order and get a G5 I have come to realize that people are just fanboys of certain phones so they diss other phones just because, it's depressing. I was looking at a Moto Z review and they all just have created an echo chamber of the same comments. Samsung has done a great job of brainwashing people with advertising. I think they their fanboys maybe worst than Apple at least Iphones don't have direct competition, Samsung does and people call it superior when it doesn't offer 1 thing I believe that is leading all other smartphones, well I take that back they have the most intrusive skin in touchwiz, anyway thanks for the extra push I needed. How is the battery life, do they have a battery pack module or extender?
Jose Torres
Jose Torres I agreed with you. G5 is even better now after it got updated to android N. the battery was never an issue. usually I charge it at 9Pm, then unplug it after battery is full around 1.5 hours later, and guess what, next morning I still have full bar 98%. Life is Good! 👍👍👍👍
Jose Torres I know right, damn
LG G5 video looks like an earthquake was going on
+Masterincommander maybe there was? lol
People think they're fine without an app tray until they see the 26 bloat ware apps that come standard on any Verizon phone. What a f'ing mess.
Lol
Well, you can always disable the apps or cram them all in a single folder.
Or I could hide them in the app drawer, you know, like normal people do...
+Kevin Schmevin actually you cant, not if you buy a G5. So buy a G5 and use folders and the disable feature or buy a different phone and quit crying, you know, like normal people do.
Or live in the UK where networks here offer little to no bloatware ;).
7:37 - That's what you call "video stabilization on par"? To me it seems that the video from the LG is waaay worse, while S7 at least tries to keep the video steady.
I saw that too.
I think SAMSUNG is just a little bit ahead of LG
yep
Agree
samsung are ahead because all they've done is tweak last year's device. the G5 differs significantly enough from the G4 to almost be a first gen product
+altern8ive I don't understand how that makes sense but okay
If camera is important tool for you and you want to have changeable battery then G5 is the way to go but if those are not so important Samsung wins this one. Samsung definitely has better screen btw.
5:24 that's actually AT&T forcing you to use the tabbed settings menu. The other carrier variants use the typical and easier-to-navigate list menu.
For versatility In would go with the S7 Edge.
water/dust resistant > removable battery .
I gotta say. The G5 photos look better than the s7 photos.
No, its not. Take a look at #Supersaf channel. There's is a camera comparison between S7 and G5. There...you might change your mind.
+Nikko Eusebio www.gsmarena.com/lg_g5_vs_samsung_galaxy_s7_low_light-review-1420.php
+Nikko Eusebio Supersaf video said:
Front facing camera detail - LG G5 is a winner
Group selfies - S7
Outdoor images - LG G5
Low light - S7
Might want to re-watch his video, because both cameras are pretty much similar. In the end it depends on your needs and which color representation you fancy.
+Nyxem Video is better on S7
+benayy prolife yeah for most of the cases G5 has better CameraS than S7 bcz of tht wide angle lense
Actually loving these reviews from Jaime, great job...
Jaime! Great job in comparing both display especially on it's outdoor visibility! Not all reviewers include this on their review.
the video stabilization of the g5 apparently sucks compared to the s7, weird it wasn't mentioned
Sorry LG, but pouring champagne on my galaxy is cooler!!!
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!?
That's from Samsung's Comercial right?
+coffeeblak86 I'm willing to bet the G5 can withstand some water.
Then don't drop it bc it shatters more easily. XD
any info on g5 b&o dac/amp module how does it compare to fiio devices
Which mobile can I buy s7 or g5
Which phone hade better camera and video recording
Plz... Tell me
Great video! But one thing is that the optical image stabilization (at least in the video) was far superior on the S7.
I agree. g5 video looked really shaky
After having experience with both Galaxy devices and G devices, I'd have to go with the G5 on this one....the removable battery is a HUGE selling point and the wide angle lens on the camera is an advantage on the G5. Not having an app drawer kinda sucks but that's an easy fix by downloading a different launcher which is something I typically do on Android devices anyway
Replaceable battery is a huge selling point.? Really. C'mon if it mattered that much to the average user wouldn't you think companies like Apple, samsung and sony would have phones with replaceable batteries.? Lg's R&D has nothing on Apple and samsung R&D. It's obviously not a huge selling point for smartphone buyers, considering that the iPhone never had replaceable batteries but still sold millions of phones all over the world, and samsung selling 2x the amount of galaxies then lg did with thier last flagship that had a replaceable battery.
Having a phone that has a battery that last well over a day with fast charging makes more sense to the average buyer.
+gladwin miguel he's not talking about the average user.
LG is also becoming very popular. To me I want a removable battery despite having a huge battery because it won't be enough .Fast charging and removable battery is a great combination for extremely heavy users like me.It won't help to sell more but it will be a great advantage for power hungry users.
obviously battery life is an issue because those extended battery cases from companies like Mophie are selling. Even Apple knows the batteries aren't big enough on their devices so they released the Apple Battery Pack. So, would you rather pay $50+ for a bulky case that adds an extra battery? Or have the ability to swap out the battery on the fly? With removable batteries, you have the option to go without a case or the option to use whatever case you really want rather than going with the ones that add a big hump that you may not be totally happy with but you deal with it because it adds battery life. Also, i've had phones that didn't have "user replaceable batteries" and the batteries go bad.....so what do I have to do? Take the device apart and rip the battery out to replace it. So yes, you can replace batteries on devices that aren't meant to be replaced, but it's a hassle. They can go bad....they could be defective. I did replace a battery on one of my phones that I had to take apart and when I put the new one in, it didn't work....it was a defective battery, so I had to take it apart, exchange the battery and do it again. Would have been so much easier to just take the back off and pop a battery in rather than taking the whole device apart....
@@yoassgoinhateme because "average users" like yourself never understood the value of a removeable back. It makes a big difference.
Like come on.
what is your tuaght or opinion to buy which mobile is better than the othr?
@Jaime Rivera are you still on new York or back in your home town.
G5 is definitely the smartphone of the year. LG = Innovation. Every year they smash the other companies with something bold and completly new to the market and fans. Congratulations LG for another amazing smartphone. Next week i will have one just like your Jaime. In Portugal if you pre order it, they will give you a B&O module and the extra battery. Nice deal. Cant wait.
The OIS of the Lg g5 is inferior to that of thr S7.The side by side comparison proves my point.
does the lg allow you to merge the SD card with internal storage?
By far and away the best smartphone reviews! Keep up the amazing work guys!!!
i still cant decide between the s7 edge and Lg g5.
Tyler Pang same here i am so confused what to do.. actually i am Samsung lover but my husband says that lg is a good phone because he's a lg user 😂😂
G5 all the way
why theres no front-facing/selfie camera comparison ?
Why is the sim slot on the lg g5 so big? What sim does it use?
I've been debating between these 2 since they were announced. I've been since LG since the G2 to the G4 but I feel like Galaxy S7 edge looks beautiful and with the 3700 mAh and the SD expansion it's a better choice at least for me this year. I'll be picking one up on Saturday!
correction* 3600 mah.
if you add the camera grip you can boost the battery to 4000.
+DiLLZGFX yes which you have to spend another $80 to get it plus adds that bulk to the phone
+Jayy Vee well the s7 is more expensive anyway. I personally would just get an extra battery and swap it out. Makes life so much easier.
DiLLZGFX I know I've been with lg all this time but this phone just doesn't convince me for some reason I'll wait to see what they do with the g6
camera on par? G5 has almost no stabilization.
GS7 offers better display, camera, UI, ip67, wireless charging and amazing build quality.
G5 is nice and a good phone but one level beneath S7.
+Garret141076 ip68 and s7 better than g5
how u explain and the camera angles are amazing!
Samsung's Settings menu isn't tabbed by default. Certain carrier version software has the menu tabbed, AT&T.
I like the g5 a little better because it has not only more expandable, but newer technology than the s7 such as usb-c and quick charge 3.0. Not to mention a fingerprint-free body and the wide angle camera. What do you guys think?
+Taraz T not really. s7 has sd card, nobody cares about usb c rn and no the g5 has quickcharge 2.0 just like the s7 and the s7 has wireless quickcharging. id rather have wide angle selfie camera and the ips screen isnt on the same level as the s7 amoled screen
Messi Suarez Neymar The g5 has an sd card and quick charge 3.0.
+Taraz T you fucking said that already
Messi Suarez Neymar But you denied both of those facts. Which proves you're another mindless samsung fanboy
+Taraz T I didn't know. I thought it still had quick charge 2.0 because the s7 had that
this year Samsung s7 beats lg g5, but I would still prefer the g5 anyday just because I get I like lg, but hope we will be impressed by the next lg v phones, or the g6, hope the module design will improve significantly. like, reply if you agree, no fanboy, please.
thanks you so much for this videos. You are the only person I see that compare the software ofertas the móviles
THANKS YOU SO MUCH
You are the best
that was the best review I've seen with these two phones and i have seen plenty lol great job, spoke in detail and was non bias. A big thumbs up from me keep it only thing i would of added is that lg has an IR blaster aswell but most people know that anyway but once again awsome review 👍
keep it up* i mean lol
Love my s7 edge!
S7. Seems like a better choice since its more refined.
Samsung forces you to use tabbed options in the settings menu? What S7 are you using that has that? My S7 is all one list.
Jamie what you said about not being able to get an app tray on the g5 isn't true. from the LG store on the phone you can download a new LG ui with an all tray installed.
LG G5 best camera for photos
The G5 video stabilization & exposure is shitty
Jaime can you do a review Samsung Galaxy s7 edge vs Sony xperia z5?
Isn't the Wide angle lens on the G5 only 8MP?
lol, how do you say the vid stablization is on par with each, all the while the g5 is shaking all over the place, and the s7 is very steady? lol. please go back and look at your own video. the s7's camera is heads and shoulders better than the g5's, other than the wide angle crap. but that's what my go pro is for. and with the gopro, i carry around less crap than the g5 modules. the modular design of the g5 is good for ONLY one thing, the spare battery. i give them that. but other than that, it is useless. and there are so many things that the s7 runs circles around the g5, which are much more important than a wide angle lens.yeah, i want to stuff my pockets with phone modules... remember it's a phone! i don't know, i might have changed my mind about this video.
a la verdad que tu eres mas fanatico, Dios mio no aceptan las cosaa
+aztekkthundergod oh i don't know, how about water proofing? How about s faster interphase? How about a better design, and more beautifully sculpted? And you are wrong about call quality, checked it with two coworkers yesterday. How about the edge features, not just the convenience and speed of the software, but the beauty of the screen dropping of the edge, instead of the g5's big bezzles? And don't belittle having a much better screen, as that is a gigantic difference. After all, everything we do pretty much comes through the screen. How about the multi screen functions? They are awesome on the s7e! How about much better memory management? I could do this all day. My intent was not to Dog the g5. It was simply to say the s7e is just much better. The G5 is s good phone. Just like the Nissan altima is a good car. But if you try to compare it to a Tesla model S, I'd attack that statement as well.
+Stev We I think your Arguments are weak. You trying to talk the S7/Edge better then the LG G5 with some Features that no one will actually really use.. Water proof is such a useless Thing i would not go and jump with my phone in the water dude and if you do you can only do it in summer, pretty useless. Faster interpahse ? where is the Interphase faster ? The Interphase uses only 1 core of the phone maybe and the single core test says that the LG G5 is much better than the S7. i can not say that is a better design okey maybe it Looks better but i would rather have a phone which is not so Mainstream and brokes if it falls down one time. the Edge Features are even more useless then the water proof Feature... and the Screen of the S7 edge has his Advantages but the G5 does have Advantages too so i Thing the Screens are the same you cant tell any difference or do you see some Pixels ? i dont think so. a better Memory managment ? Samsung dont even have SD Cards on the S6 so pls dont tell me something about Memory LG is doing this since the G2. so ^^
Agreed with vid stabilization, the video stabilization to both products are really different. Samsung S7 wins video stabilization, no lie. It's all shaky for the G5 and smooth for the S7, you can't argue with that. It's all in the video.
+Gimme thatshit first, we're talking about the s7/s7e, not the s6. Second, if you are so stupid to think going swimming is the only time water proofing is relevant, then you're a bigger dumbass than i was giving you credit for being. How about getting caught in the rain, and needing Google maps, waze or some other needed nav app?? What about dropping it in water accidentally, you moron??? Waterproofing is a big reason i bought this phone, because have had an iphone die because of rain. Also, if you can't see how ridiculously dull the g5 is next to the s7, then your idiot status gets yet another bump up in rating. I have put my s7e against my friends g5's, and their's always stumbled on slower than mine. So yes, the s7 is much faster. You sound like you're a little kid, who knows nothing. So I'm done teaching you...
I refuse to call them friends lol, its a modular phone so I'll just call them mods, sound cooler.
Great comparison. If G5 managed to pull water proofing and stereo speakers off as well as a larger stock battery and they made the switch to Amoled, they'd have had a HUGE win this round. For now however, I feel great about my S7 Edge. We'll see what the HTC 10 and the next Nexus bring to the table if anything.
My s7e keeps on asking to calibrate the compass when trying to open.
LG G5 the best.! :)
the g5 is an amazing phone but to be honest the g7 edge is the best smart phone on this planet absolutely outstanding and beautiful 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
That's the face off I've been waiting for !
I really just want to see what HTC has coming with the 10.
I'm saying
The LG g5 is for real power users... I just can't live without removable battery
I never have to worry about battery life when I have 2 spares.
+ICE Starboy Some one with common sense here^
having 2 spares. lol. common sense. lol. nice joke
ploikhjugjk I have 2 spares for my g3 with a battery charging cradle.
Imran Mohammed I have the exact same for my g3 too. My phone is literally never on the charger. 👍
ICE Starboy Same here haha
Image stabilization is on par even on side by side shot with the s7? Did you see how the LG was shaking like a leaf and s7 was smooth af? Why u lying? Also, the night shots were horrible on the LG. Street lights were burned out. On the s7 it looked really good. So in short, LG camera sucks, s7 still the king. And no, im not using s7 nor will ever use a samsung phone again.
I also noticed how shaky the LG was
***** Only because its the truth. Compare those pics yourself and look at the highlights. THey are all blown out on LG.However I have used 2 LG phones in the past and only one Samsung. I would gladly use an LG phone again, but never a Samsung.
***** No, because they put useless shit on it and clutter the phone with their Samsung apps.
not vs. priv and nexus?
If both these phones can handle QHD, should the resolution of this video go up to 1440p.?
Own the G2, G3, and now G4. But the S7 Edge is much much nicer than the G5. LG has lost it. Modular? How about gimmicky...
S7 edge is the📱to beat this year
awesome review!
Great video.
But I'm not too convinced on the Lowlight camera results since there are no indoor shot samples.
Also Video Stabilization - in the video sample provided in this video, the G5 is noticeably more shaky than the S7 Edge.
he's so insanely biased to samsung its unreal XD ....this seems like an ad tbh
he says at the end his favourite is the G5,,,
But throughout the whole vid?
samsung has always caused problems for me. whether they get slow, the wifi connection fails (dont say its my router because its not) , or trying to sync data. is lg better? based on appeareance, it's amazing. i hate the cheap plastic looks of samsung phones. they all look the same to me. they are too mainstream.
Miri xoxo lmao😂😂😂😂 the Samsung galaxy S7 isn't plastic anymore. Smh gtfo here
Karmin Lengthvitch people are actually having problems with the s7
Miri xoxo Understandable. What I was stating was the fact that you said the phone was plastic. It's not.
You opinion became much less important when you said samsungs were plastic. they haven't been plastic in almost 3 years lol.
Miri xoxo I have both LG and Samsung. One is G2, bought it in 2013 but left untouched since 2015 because the screen was broken, bought S5 in 2015 but just only one year and half, S5 being so slow and sometimes got lag. I repaired my G2's screen back in october and I can tell you, my LG G2 still doing just fine while my S5 had a lot of problems.
the app drawer on the g5 can be downloaded on the lg world app in the phone
Awsome comparison!
We all know you're a bit bias with that LG, so taken that into the comparison, the s7 win :P
+Decan Andersen bruh bias I thought he was completely fair. There's no "win" It's whatever phone you like best. Both phones are completely different. If you are all about looks and love waterproofing, go gs7. If you love the practicality and features like the camera then go g5
+Alex Leonard yup.. I test drove both, there is no winner just personal preference and lifestyle, went with the G5 becase of the removable battery.
Lolz..! G5 crappy build quality, only two friends attachment with no plans from lg two make more, more susceptible to water and dust damage because of the modular design, ui is still a mess more so now with us G5's not being able to enable app tray (something that a lot of Android users love about Android).
S7 edge is clearly the winner here. Beautiful design, much better ui, battery that easily lasts a whole day and then some for most users, ip68 water and dust resistant, super fast auto focus, much better ois. And finally that display..! I mean Samsung has the best display of any smartphone, color brightness and contrast is untouchable. It can get bright enough to see in direct sunlight and really dim in dark rooms.
+JugsForHanukkah wait.... What..? It shows missed calls and missed messages. I mean what else did you want to show on a always on display. It seems that samsung made the always on display basic so it wouldn't take up to much battery.
Better music quality, modularity, removable battery, faster finger print sensor, wide angle camera and most importantly for me... An IR blaster! The LG G5 has better specs over Samsung in my opinion 👍
what you said in the beginning is so true I don't know what phone to get lg g5 or samsung galaxy s7 edge
winner: LG G5
Samsung wins. Hands down.
hell no 😂
+jocone123 Yep.
I have an LG G4 now, and the G5 with it's smaller screen, shoddier build quality, ugly look and damn near pointless module swapping feels like a downgrade.
My next phone will be either an S7 Edge (smaller but better screen, nicer design and waterproofing) or a Sony Xperia Z5 Premium (nicer deisgn, waterproofing, better speakers).
+yoherson de leon G5 is a no for me lol
which one should I get lg g5 or s7
whats the song as he starts talking?
Lg G5 is a big screw up, it's just looks terrible and the whole friends thing isn't worth it.
+Laurenzo Tita How is it a big screw up? I think the S7 Edge looks ugly.
***** You're the minority, it Sold 9.5mil units in 1week
Laurenzo Tita How is it a big screw up though? You dodged my question.
***** the build quality isn't doesn't feel premium, the UI is Ugly and sloppy and the phone looks terrible.
Laurenzo Tita Build quality isn't the greatest I will agree but how is the UI ugly and sloppy? It's much better looking than touchjiz and much simplier to use.
For all those not interested in watching the whole video but wants to know the conclusion. ..
The G5 has only two advantage over the s7 - The wide angle lens and removable battery.
The s7 embarrasses the G5 in the rest of the areas!
+Top 5 and the removable battery comes with its own sacrifices
Tom Sawyer Exactly. I donno who actually carries two batteries. I haven't seen anybody do that!
back then when every phone had a "removable battery" i NEVER changed the battery now lg tries to sell this as a feature bringing out an horrendously manufactured phone for a fortune
+Tom Sawyer im GLAD samsung made the non removable back useful with the water proofing
+No Google I don't want to use my real name In my unbiased opinion the only thing G5 beat sasmung in was the module feature and and removable back everything else sammy took
actually, if you have the edge variant, other notification can be seen by enabling edge feeds (rub the edge part of the screen) although it's still not as practical as always on
this video didn't mention about the dual pixels fiture on samsung galaxy s7 and s7 edge
I'd go with the S7 Edge. That thing is bad ass.
Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is better !
It's not working .
Can you do that for me ?
And ship that in my country for me please :)
I just want to own that Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge :)
+Everything TH-camrs Its fake!
Sandro Saulić Can you give me one Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge so that I will make a video by unboxing it . Thanks!
+Everything TH-camrs @
I like how you're not nit picky about things that don't matter..e.g. the fingerprint scanner speeds, how one camera takes better photos than the other by a nanometer etc..gj
where in NY do you live? queens?
g5 build quality suck
the G5 is so damn ugly. its the worst flagship design LG has ever put out. The V10 shpuld have been the G5.
I don't know. The design grew to me over these past days. But the V10 was SPOT ON design-wise. The G4 wasn't half bad either, but V10 wins when compared to the G4 and G5. The V10 is robust and looks cool, great combination to have in a phone.
4NewHop3 Exactly! Thank you, you see my point. The V10 just looks cool in all aspects. They really pulled thru with it. Its like bulky yet curved at the same time, it works really well. And that back texture is just too awesome. I guess the G5 design has to grow on me some, but for now remains to me as an ugly design.
+Cesar Espinoza I actually like the design of the g5
TheBuggerbutt08 The v10 looks like a childs toy, very cheap looking
I agree with you!!
you can get wide screen pics on an s7. it is panorama on mode settings.
panorama isnt wide it uses multiple photo and then combine it, the wide angle lenses is just 1 lenses that takes 1 wide photo and it's better than panorama
Why did they say that the G5 video was good when you can clearly see in the clip they post that the focus was not steady at all? Check it out at 7:35 and look at the back ground of the G5 video versus the S7 Edge background.
That's always been my problem with the LG phones I've had from the LG Viewty to my G2 and G3, video focus tends to go in and out or is unsteady.
+markthaddeus Agree. I've had G3 and G4 - they do not do well in video. Excellent in still images, but quite poor for video.
is it worth paying an extra 150$ for the s7 over the g5?
I own the G5 and if you watch any videos the speaker is twice as loud easily. Screen does fine in daylight, gets really bright. USB type, removable battery...what kills a battery? Charing it over and over again, and the faster you charge it the faster you shorten its lifespan. Curious to see how long these galaxy s7s batteries can hang with all that fast charging...only time will tell.
i like how your homescreen is everything important and convenient at your fingertips, I actually think ill use your design
I have both phones (S7 edge personal, G5 work), and I have to prefer the edge. The camera on the G5 is amazing but I can't get over the rough edges and the annoyance of the home screen apps (and constantly having to reorder them one at a time when adding a new app).
One thing I have noticed that non of the reviewers mention about the display brightness is that the LG G5 will boost its brightness in bright light like in direct sunlight. You can see it happen if you watch for the change when you go outside for example. It would be nice to be able to set it to this max brightness manually but I reckon LG have reasons like battery life and or heat for not doing so.
you left Honduras and move to New York?
Awesome videoo as always
Where is fisher
good comparison,.. going to share with my indecisive friends..
Which one will never break internally?
Excellent video! I might have to make this tough decision soon - the LG G3 is starting to show it's age :-)
if you're looking to stay with LG then I suggest the V10. it basically is the G5 without marshmallow lol but I have it and think it's a great phone and the second screen comes in handy more than people think..imo. it can do a lot! I've had it for about 6 months and still am just learning new things it can do plus the removable battery, expandable memory and ir blaster are nice to have too. good luck on your decision!
well isn't project aria still a thing
