Not really... I went back to verizon a couple days ago to compare my v30 screen against the display model and two more brand new, in the box V30s and they all had screen uniformity issues. I still like the phone despite that issue, but it's a persistent issue nonetheless. Btw, my wife has the note 8 and it's nothing short of amazing. I just want that Quad dac and 120 degree camera that bad to not get a Note 8 like her. It being cheaper helps too ($840 vs $960 - promotions values are comparable V30 gets $200 visa gift card and Daydream VR... Note 8 gets $150 costco card, charging bundle + 360 camera *or* 128gb sd and wireless pad).
the way he edited the scratching sound while he is speaking is so annoying and hilarious 3:39 ...amazing how he keeps his videos serious and practical, yet funny and sometimes hilarious...great video.
@@siddharthkataria4323 I've experienced a few freezes and stuff after 10 months of using mine. Nothing too bad but could be better. But considering the price has dropped a ton I'd say it's worth it.
iMiguelAOG except that the note 8 costs a staggering 25% more than the V30 or the S8+ which makes no sense (the S8 can't be compared, is a different category)
Pretty freaking awesome!! I've been a Samsung user over the years but since the V20, LG has sold me on their phones. And now the V30 is an even better and more solid phone. Definitely gonna be using this one as my daily driver. Thanks again Zach for bringing us awesome insight on projects and new tech.
I bought 2 day one, one for me one for my wife. I ended up breaking the screen of mine so I changed to Sony for a while and now I have a v60. My wife still has her day one v30 and refuses to change it because it still works like a charm. I just upgraded her sd card because she was running out of memory.
@1:30 "or if you are around a bank robber" I don't think the speaker grill would be my primary concern if I was around a bank robber with this device. I'm guessing they'd rather drop the money and take the phone instead seeing as it's most likely worth more in 2017.
i know this is off topic, but i really think you deserve more subs, all your videos are so clean and professionally looking, you always learn something from them be it a life lesson or something about the project you are working on. Keep it up!
Maybe I'm not dealing with a flame mark on the display, but it's good to know the technology of the screen and the resistance under the flame for repair technicians like me, when we need to take apart and separate the screen with a heat gun, it's important to not apply too much hot air to these screens or it turn the pixels to white forever, and you test it's useful in that cases...
I wanted to purchase V30 but because of late release, settled with note 8. Lg makes good devices but their idiotic strategies and price drops are the reason for their current situation in market
Really? What's with all the people that can't wait a few weeks to buy the phone they want? "I bought a phone I didn't really want because I couldn't wait for the one I really want" well ok. Note 8 is nice and all, but if you really want the V30 for the features, I don't see a problem waiting a few weeks.
Alexander Nikolis you forgot another important point he pointed. In India G6 was launched at 55k and now it's selling for 33k!.. That's massive price drop for any flagship... How many weeks you want to wait to see if price drop will launch on V30?.
Themadbird i have the note8 right now it's almost perfect. it only need 2 things to be perfect for me 1- stereo speakers 2- undr screen finger print scanner maybe the s9 or the note9 will have that
Yeah well LG too is removing useful features just like everyone else. V30's predecessor - the V20 has an IR blaster and removable battery. Might not be important features for most, but for me that was a dealbreakker on V30's part and I got the previous version instead
IR blaster while extremely useful, is not exactly a tool that many people use anyway. Besides, their decision to not use removable battery is a trade off for having water resistant feature. Technically the battery is still removable, but will be much harder because they had to seal the body from any gap where water can pour in. I'd honestly prefer this water resistant feature than a removable battery. Had to fix my V20 screen because accidental water splash.
Was looking for this comment. LED displays are actually LCD display with the panel being illuminated by LEDs which is pretty different from OLED display which produce its own light and this does results in deep black, unlike led displays
Thanks for this. I'm a bank robber... Well, a part ti... Well I moon light as an apprentice bank robber. Ok damnit. Fine. I once got a free Coke from a vending machine on accident. Either way, thanks for this video. That is all.
You're like the "Consumer Reports" of YT. Nicely done. Very insightful review with loads of helpful information to a broad cross-section of end users. Thanks.
Interesting results you got. For me I just picked this phone up yesterday and it has already spontaneously cracked the back just from being in my pocket. I found several other people complaining about spontaneously cracking displays camera lenses and backs all over the internet
definitely Lg V30 is the right one to pick bro.. still a headphone jack with Quad dack for enhanced audio experience + POled Fullvision display with 18/9 aspect ratio + 16 mp main shooter with 1.6 aperture (largest as of now n exclusive to V30) + Wide angle camera (which is more useful than what others like google n samsung offer) + durable build quality (proved in this video) + IP68 water n dust resistance + Military grade Certification and many other essentials like latest processor, decent battery life etc. its a perfect choice for content creators. It meets all the requirements of a flagship smartphone.
Andrew Whiteman That's for the Pixel 2, not the 2 XL. The 2 was made by HTC, the 2XL was made by LG, so the 2 XL might fare better than the regular Pixel 2 in his video.
Good to see u back wid d videos.... Luvd dis video.... It would be great to see Sony Xperia XZ1 durability test on your channel... Hoping to see it very soon 😎
hjchamp04 Ahh, good point. That died with the G5/V20 if memory serves. Didn't Samsung, Apple, and Google already get rid of that on their product line like 2 generations ago?
I'd love to see more drop test videos, especially with the new trend of having glass & metal bodies. It would also be cool to see a water damage test here and there, especially for the devices that claim to have resistance. Always enjoy the videos, man. Look forward to seeing some more durability tests soon!
JerryRigEverything - Thanks for the video Zack! The video definitely helped reaffirm my purchase decision. Just gotta remember to be careful with the fingerprint sensor.
I was happy to hold out and pick this phone up on day one. It's a great phone. I'll remember not to roast mine in fire, or scratch up the fingerprint scanner. More than likely, this will serve well for many years to come.
LG V30 keeps impressing *-*
Mohit Wanyalkar best phone of 2017
Those were a bad batch of screens.
neural_physics screen is fine
Not really... I went back to verizon a couple days ago to compare my v30 screen against the display model and two more brand new, in the box V30s and they all had screen uniformity issues.

Some people are finding that the initial release batches have the issue. Newer models manufactured in October doesn't seem to have the issue.
The phone looks beautiful!
Looked beautiful
I like it my 3rd favorite phone with 2nd being the note 8 and the first being the Oneplus 3t ( because of what it did for Android phones)
Big Smoke Love the 3t, got one and it’s absolutely amazing in every way, way better than any flagship I’ve ever owned. Oreo soon too.
make that huawei p20 pro and p20 the twilight design
Great video Zack, as always 👍🏻
the way he edited the scratching sound while he is speaking is so annoying and hilarious 3:39 ...amazing how he keeps his videos serious and practical, yet funny and sometimes hilarious...great video.
Omar Almubayd yeah in my opinion Zack is a natural in voice over
Quinten Vermeulen I totally agree
Ikr
Omar Almubayd
That edit cracked me up, because he also roasted Bixbi in the processor
Nowadays the phones are not eligible for #ArtClassWithJerry!! 😞😟
Aman Hussain he can still conduct class with lvl7 moh scale
Google Pixel 2 XL will bring back the Art classes.
Aman Hussain this shit had me dead 😭😭😭
Hey, nice surname!
Aman Hussain Regards from Europe from my Channel Bro's
I watch your videos at night to help me sleep. Its weird, your voice is really calming.
So the IP rating is higher WITH a 3.5mm jack... well there you go....
instaBlaster...
Plot twist: Bend test is getting tougher because phones are getting stronger or is Zack getting weaker...?
Enter the iPad 2018
I thought his name was jerry
Maaz Patel nope
Maaz Patel it’s Zack Nelson Mr.Nelson
If you want to do a drop test..... Just give it to LinusTechTips 😂
hey.he just told bout it today
*LinusDropTips you mean?
He has multiple phones, so he can drop one on different occasions.
He's dropping everything :)
ace 1121 hahaha
Damn this was pretty painful to watch on my LG V30. I was shook
@@siddharthkataria4323 I'm going to buy tomorrow
@@vinsmokesanji7496 i just bought it
Same
The newer LG V30s are now called the LG V30+ ThinQ. Well mine says that at least
@@siddharthkataria4323 I've experienced a few freezes and stuff after 10 months of using mine. Nothing too bad but could be better. But considering the price has dropped a ton I'd say it's worth it.
This is the underdog phone of the year standing up to all the big boys, would definitely recommend
5:05 thumbs up for LG and Samsung for keeping useful features in their flagships ..
Take one of those thumbs down because samsung is basically apple these days
And thank you for keep saying t about the 3.5mm jack! You got a bigger voice and I couldn't agree more!!!!
i cant get enough of your videos. concise, to the point, clear, awesome.
LG V30, Note 8, and the S8 and S8+ are the best phones to come out this year. No compromise flagship, the way it should be.
iMiguelAOG except that the note 8 costs a staggering 25% more than the V30 or the S8+ which makes no sense (the S8 can't be compared, is a different category)
Pixel 2 is the most powerful phone on the market right now. Just saying
But sony is pretty good this year.
I'm using an S8+, but the iPhone 8+ is Stronger than the S8 or the V30, and it's a Fact, Benchmarks never lie.
Lutor Péter the display? Hahahha yea..
Pretty freaking awesome!!
I've been a Samsung user over the years but since the V20, LG has sold me on their phones.
And now the V30 is an even better and more solid phone.
Definitely gonna be using this one as my daily driver.
Thanks again Zach for bringing us awesome insight on projects and new tech.
2:13 The Fingerprint scanner is also unscratchable on the iPhone X XD
it is also non-usable after *scratching it a lot with a diamond*
Back in days 😂
But but
iphone x jokes is what I'm still waiting for
i think it (iphone x) will break in the flex test
I love this phone so much that seeing this test "left a permanent mark" in my heart.
Love your videos
When your own face is in the ad before your video... This channel has come so far!
You majestic creature. Great work, Zack!
Just five minutes of pure jerryrigseverything👍👍👍
1:37 LOL that made me laugh like crazy!
Scratching the sides was so satisfying to listen to, thanks.
Shots taken at Google and Apple 😂
UnPhayzable and Samsung 🤣
Google has better software and the best camera, while Apple has a messaging app that combines both online and SMS though
Lg is pretty damn good but so is Samsung , they're certainly far ahead of Apple and google.
y'all should remember that without google you'd probably be running on iOS or Windows Phone rn guys ;)
UnPhayzable
NO on Google and Samsung
The Display looks like a S8 Clone xD
I bought 2 day one, one for me one for my wife. I ended up breaking the screen of mine so I changed to Sony for a while and now I have a v60. My wife still has her day one v30 and refuses to change it because it still works like a charm. I just upgraded her sd card because she was running out of memory.
MY EAAAAAARRRRRSSSSS
exactly the same feeling here^^
You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this
@1:30
"or if you are around a bank robber"

Its better buy then Galaxy s8 series. Delaying my purchase since it will come down in just few weeks, then nothing can beat V30/Dollar spent
it's a phone like every phone.every phone is fragile some less some more...I'm impressed you channel is still alive..
Clear back Lg V30?
This
Finally! Been waiting for this quite a long time.
please do huawei p10 durrability and teardown.. pleasseee
PPT Presents yes i agree
Maybe I'm not dealing with a flame mark on the display, but it's good to know the technology of the screen and the resistance under the flame for repair technicians like me, when we need to take apart and separate the screen with a heat gun, it's important to not apply too much hot air to these screens or it turn the pixels to white forever, and you test it's useful in that cases...

aRvInD Gr wish v30 also had a price dropp like g6
aRvInD Gr Just got an s8 for 550€ last week ;)

Im getting this as my first smart phone!
Do u have it now?
@@daudahmedmalik803 yes
Next video: Clear LG V30
Own one and love it. LG did a great job with this phone.
Samsung roast count: 5
And Apple? I don't dare to count...
Ummm. Only once in this video you mean?
Dániel Botrágyi ERROR : Apple counter broken
Kasim Hussain apple roast count: over 9000 (i think this meme is outdated, isn't it?
Buck Minster not as outdated as iphones.
Sorry i had to do it
The video I've been waiting for!!
As a bank robber, i prefer the note 8.
Thanks. Was gonna get this phone till he said that... what a deal breaker.
Themadbird do you mean cuz of this comment u won't buy the note8 ?
نبراس العامري. The LG v30
But either way I was kidding. Fine with my s7 edge For now.
Themadbird i have the note8 right now
it's almost perfect. it only need 2 things to be perfect for me
1- stereo speakers
2- undr screen finger print scanner
maybe the s9 or the note9 will have that
I love your phone durability tests 😃👌🏻
Yeah well LG too is removing useful features just like everyone else. V30's predecessor - the V20 has an IR blaster and removable battery. Might not be important features for most, but for me that was a dealbreakker on V30's part and I got the previous version instead
Good, the v20 is absoulty the best phone in the series and having it with me going, on 2 years has still been awesome.
Sceme1991 deal breaker for me too. Might have to buy another v20 before they halt production.
Got the V30 and love it but still use V20 often as a backup / side phone, Bluetooth tethered to the V30 when necessary.
IR blaster while extremely useful, is not exactly a tool that many people use anyway.
Besides, their decision to not use removable battery is a trade off for having water resistant feature. Technically the battery is still removable, but will be much harder because they had to seal the body from any gap where water can pour in. I'd honestly prefer this water resistant feature than a removable battery. Had to fix my V20 screen because accidental water splash.
Yessss. Amplify the sound of scratching metal
4:13 You make a mistake saying "Personally I prefer LED displays over LCD" You forgot the O in OLED.
But, there's a display like LED without the "O"...
ac3ofspades878 AM-O-LED, there's O-LED. Etc
Albert Péntek After 5 minutes I am still not sure if you got that joke or not...
TH-cam sure is a strange place.
Oh so it meant to be a joke, ok then lol
Was looking for this comment. LED displays are actually LCD display with the panel being illuminated by LEDs which is pretty different from OLED display which produce its own light and this does results in deep black, unlike led displays
Thank you very much for the video! It's funny thinking about asking for it awhile back, and here we go
Can we get a Moh's appearance?
SAW9 lol sure m8
SAW9 what is a Moh?
I preferred the V20 Screen burn test, it showed that the screen can come back to normal and the scratched fingerprint test, it worked still.
My grandmother gave me her "broken v30"...
I'm watching this on it ;)
What was broken?
The ribben cable on the battery, one 20$ battery later and, well here we are
@@earlgrey3519 that's a steal
Now this is impressive! What a great phone.
Did you just attempt to burn the ocean at 6:00?
I just got mine yesterday am in love with this phone better than my old version(my v20)

zack just said that the homebutton is located at the back of the phone
okk 0:57

there are no mistakes

Because on lg phones the power button is considered the home button.
Terrel Brinkley Lol no it's not.
Thanks alot jerry.
Atlast u made it for us
Anyone else watching this on their lg v30? Also watching him torture it made me hold my phone more firm towards the end 😂

its a perfect choice for content creators. It meets all the requirements of a flagship smartphone.
Go look at Jerry's Pixel 2 durability test video at 6:23. Tells you everything you need to know.
Andrew Whiteman That's for the Pixel 2, not the 2 XL. The 2 was made by HTC, the 2XL was made by LG, so the 2 XL might fare better than the regular Pixel 2 in his video.

You lie! They removed the IR blaster!!
hjchamp04 Ahh, good point. That died with the G5/V20 if memory serves. Didn't Samsung, Apple, and Google already get rid of that on their product line like 2 generations ago?
