How does the Dac on the V50 compare to the V60? I still might go for the V60 even though I am not a fan of on screen fingerprint reader. Thank you for the review. I till this day am still enjoying my LG V35.
@@adamgus9563 I think they are the same, both tuned by Meridian Audio I believe.
Jason, DAC video and comparisons between V50/V60 would be good!
thats not a 1080p screen -thats a 1080 * 2460 screen..

Why Is No One Buying This Phone?
Easy answer, because it's barely available anywhere. LG sucks so bad at marketing and distribution. And that's a shame because they offer really cool alternative products, especially for audiophiles.
Not to mention, their support is worse than Samsung.
The biggest issue is marketing. Availability is no issue, unless you mean to other countries, which I have no way of checking.
@@mistamaog Not available where I am.. Outside of US and Euro here.. It feels like even the LG distributor here gives up on bringing in the LG phones due to the vast fans of Samsung and Apple here..
I had this phone for a couple of days and I sent it back to Tmobile. He's so right. This phone is AWESOME! I'm still a Samsung Galaxy Note guy. I need to have all my notes in one file and one phone at the sametime. And not have to buy another pen for another 50 dollars for this device. 128 GB isn't enough for me either. I'm use to having 512GB with a memory card just in case. Great phone and a great review too.
@@DimplePoji Its not even available in europe or uk so not sure ehere you got that from, as far as I know its only available demestically in South Korea and the US.
Love the shout out to Flossy Carter. Keep doing what you do, Jason. Your channel is refreshingly honest.
So honest IT HURTSSSSS
Right... "It feels good in your hands"
Feels good 😌
Great video -
@Avingay Anfordstay It's also wrong for you to criticize. You can't wash your hands by bashing others.
@Avingay Anfordstay oh I didn't know you were the determining denominator on whats funny and what isn't. Lightin up
I'm still watching this on my old V20 😃 that phone set the bar so high, that i'm in struggle to find a replacement. As far as V-series LGs go, the v20 was the best one in my opinion. Yes, its 2020, hardware is clearly outdated, but its still isnt slow after all these years, display is over 500ppi, its very sharp, cameras are still not bad, laser focus + ois, comparative with midrange stuff in 2020, i'm still ok with it, headphone jack, expendable memory, quad-DAC, AND the most important thing, it has a replaceable battery, and its a game changer.. I can still use this phone as a daily because of this. I got a 10500mah (a huuuge one) battery in it, with a thicker case, and its super, 2-3 days of very heavy usage... And after 4 years of heavy use, it is still flawless. I really dont think that later "V" series phones are comparable, this is extremely well thought out, and is still exceptional in pretty much every department. I'd rather get it again if it were available new. V30-40-50-60 couldnt hold a candle to the V20. That is an exceptional "feature package", and i wish they stick to the good ideas. The only reason that is my last "V" phone, is because all of them seem like a downgrade in some department, flexibility, practicality, or simply just features what the V20 made a must to have
Me too. I have 7 batteries a couple of them are messed up at this point, maybe 3 are working well. Any suggestions.....
Where'd you buy this 10500 mah battery bro?? Can you give us a link. Thanks
@@dauielim2399 i dod a quick search, and its still available on amazon for about 30€/$/£. Its also the exact same i have. I copy and paste it here : Perfine LG V20 10500mAh Extended Replacement Battery for/BL-44E1F/F800L/ H910/H915/ H990/ LS997/ US996/ VS995 with TPU Case. It'll make your phone huuuge and bulky, but it doesnt take much to get used to it
Dude the v40 is the sweet spot. I loved my v20 but the battery life was too short. The v40 is the best and nite you can get for $200! The v30 was nice but the v40 is best.
Same! I'm still using the V20 hard everyday and the only issue is having to buy a $30 battery every year or so. I bought 2 last time and have the dock with the battery charging port behind where the phone goes. The camera STILL kills it in 2021. I'll end up getting the V60 in a couple more years when this one finally dies out on me. 😂
LG phones the last few years have been seriously underrated. I just got an LG g8 a couple months ago and I love it.
dude still using my lg g3 d855 👍👍
I love my v40. I'll confirm. Audio experience is top in the market. Also, my wife has iPhone pro Max and we use my v40 for pictures exclusively because it's just way better and clearer.
Keep their best phone to date (V40) as far away from Android 10 as possible. Not only does it kill DSD playback it has but it's a god-awful ugly interface on that phone.
@@Scott-DJ you make no sense
I got the V40 as well, LG V seris is very underrated!!!
I just gave my son that phone the v40 is a good phone OMG I just update to this dual screen phone Omfg LG did they thing every where I go i get a compliment on my phone
LG phones take horrible pictures though. HDR just isnt even on par with most flagships and they overexpose every single shot. The pictures also lack sharpness and they're super oversaturated as well as noisy if taking a low light photo. I wont even get started on video, it's a JOKE.
Most people don't know about because there aren't any marketing push for there phone's at all outside of Korea
Sad but true.
@@thejasontlewis it hurts
Korea doesn't even get this phone
To be fair to LG they tried this year , you can find the V60 in a couple of popular Music videos...
@@frankolamar that's true but most people I think will see it as an s10
I've had my V60 for about a month now, and I've got to agree with everything you said. It's a really great device, especially for media consumption and creation
Does this phone have an LED flash notification light? Are the speakers on this device better than the Galaxy s9 plus?
@@54CFC no notification LED, but was replaced long ago with always on display. More features and very functional. And with dual screen, you actually get a third screen on the cover. Yes, the speakers murder the s9. Or most any other phone for that matter.
@@54CFC I just came from a s9+ to the v60 and instead of having the led notification light it has this sick feature that lights up a ring around the side of your screen and it looks gorgeouss.The speakers kill the s9 the v60 has good quality sound even at full volume it is clear and just legit good.Thb I dont miss my s9+ much I still like the s9 but the v60 really does take the cake this time. Even the camera is a beast and beats the Samsung S series imo.
@@pacobell97 I forgot about the ring of light notification. Good catch.
I don't know if it's a software thing but the V60 I have when tapping to comment on social media drudge have to tap several times for it to engage the keyboard and same for the send icon. Had the same problem with the Q7 plus. Where as my G7 Power works flawlessly. And since in the same spot as the fingerprint sensor it's probably a software issue.
I freaking love mine. Using it since day one. It is amazing. One time I got 11 hours screen on time, and 53 hours of stand by. This phone is incredible. I'm hooked with the dual screens going back to my iPhone feels like mehhh!!!
Are you happy with the camera and video quality? (Im debating between getting this or the xperia 1)
It's an amazing phone ! I love the battery!
@@legendarylily7402 i just ordered an xperia 1. 4 days til i finally get my hands on it.
Does it have an ir blaster
Where did you get it/buy it
sad to see LG is stopping production on the phones but on the bright side i am able to get for roughly 500 dollars usd a LG V60 ThinQ for . which is a truly amazing phone even this late into 2021 it still seems like a no brainer specially at the price its at now. The Quad Dac and the dual screen case really make it a one of a kind stand out experience.
i got v60 with 220bucks just in this month
Got 1 for 180 in great shape...blue is sexy...
@@mst4001 Is it worth it? My G5 finally went kaput on me last week, so I'm shopping for a new one right now.
@@bouji_ for me is yes. I got everything i need big big display, not fastest but enough to do anything chipset, ip rating, average camera quality, excellent speakers, quad dac and built quality feels definitely premium than new phones in that price range.
@@mst4001 Thank you for the response. Who is your carrier if you don't mind me asking? I am with Verizon; although, it's unclear to me if I can use it with them.
If you ignore marketing, the market will ignore you !
But, I liked this phone. It’s very interesting to explore the dual screen.
Still rocking my V20. Been great. I will keep it until it dies. That's how I roll.
I was still using my V10 until a few days ago. I loved it, aside from battery life (horrible), but found no real reason to upgrade until it randomly lost a bunch of my apps, including play store. And one was VIP Access, which I NEEDED. So I went ahead and upgraded to the V60. Love it so far, especially the insanely good battery life, but I kind of miss my V10 too.
You and me both. Been a great phone. Looking for a new one for my wife, I'm still good lol
@@shutterbugZoe I have 2 V10s still working imho the sickest phone I've ever seen NOTHING looks like the V10 and it's such a beast it still holds up today.
A notable feature that Most do not know about is the PC mode of the V60
wit a USB-C Universal Docking station with an HDMI and at least 2 USB
ports. When plugging the USB-C Dock up and a 1080 p monitor and a USB
keyboard and mouse the phone goes into PC mode becoming an Android-based
desktop... Very cool
LG is now making "flagship killer" phones.
And in the process they have all but killed their mobile line....RIP
@@pitbull64 like a Phoenix they will rise again trust i had iphone samsung oneplus anf Xiaomi and i honestly like LG the best
I actually don't understand why some people don't like LG phones. Great processor, great display, higher resolution, and don't need to have higher camera lenses, All that in one phone.
Truth!
When you do the detailed audio review, please also give the V series mic array a good mention; unless they’ve killed their recording capabilities since the V30/G7 I’ve played with, they can record concerts with unbelievable clarity
I have the v30 and planning to buy a higher number before LG goes out of business with their phones department.
Got a new G8x recently and it still has the same features as my old V30 with better recording performance! The recording capabilities are still there!
I have been using LG phones for some time now (since the LG G4). I have to say I love what LG does, they put out a comparable product with better features and a much lower cost to the consumers. I love it!! I just picked up this LG V60 with the dual screen for my wife and I. I figured I'd save my dual screen for her as a back up, well I am actually finding that I love it, I think I am keeping the dual screen for myself. Still learning several tricks and uses for the phone and dual screen. LG has done it again!!!
Great job and I thought about getting the LG V60, but with the LG V50 dropping to $300 I couldn't justify the newer one and so I got the v 50 and I'm quite happy with it.
Great to hear someone made use of that deal... curious to know, how is it performing? Where are the security updates at?
How do you rate it out of 10?
@@pjagasia i have v50 thinq and samsung s10 plus, they have almost same update from time to time. Whenever i have update on samsung, I also have update on LG. :)
v50 dropped to $300?! Where? It's ridiculous $1k on stupid Verizon's store - $50 more expensive than the v60 for existing customers and like $250 more expensive for new customers. Verizon be crazy.
How are you liking the v50
I've been buying lg phones for years and have been asking the same question. Never has one caused me problems.
I love their phones but they are now only releasing them locked to major carriers which basically takes me out of the running to be a consumer.
The g8x is unlocked but Velvet, wing and v60 all require at least an $80 a month unlimited phone plan through T-Mobile or Verizon... I understand why they're doing it for business reasons. No one was buying the unlocked phones but it does suck for me
Lg v10 bootloop :(
I bought two actually, with two dual screen. I just love the Quad DAC and the display. Just found this video and your channel, subscribed with thanks.
Thanks for the awesome review as always! I moved from an LG G6 to an LG V60 and man does this phone feel nice! People should be paying more attention to it because it's a great Android flagship for a lot less than the competition. Sure you don't get a 4k screen or 120hz refresh rate, but you do get the dual screen case and battery for days (well, a couple of days). Folks better not sleep on LG!
I've love all of my V-series phones. The V40 was the last one I had. Ive been using the G7 for 2 years now which is like 4x longer than I've uses any phone in the last 5 years. It's time for me to upgrade, so the first thing I looked at was the V60. I like it, but man, I've been more and more disappointed with LG since they started removing buttons after the G4. That was always my favorite part about their phones. I can at least unlock my G7 with the fingerprint reader on the back, but now you can't even do that with the V60. That fact alone is going to lead me to consider other phone brands for the first time in a decade.
So far, so good. I upgraded from the LGV30. Battery life is great. There is also stylus/pen support. I am using the Bamboo Ink Gen 2 and it works quite well. I know that some other users have commented about a somewhat sluggish fingerprint sensor. I’ve had it for approximately three weeks, and since the software update on my Verizon variant, I have had no issues.
LG should just make a single phone every other year for their fans like me.The V60 is the best phone I ever used, still using it in 2023 and works better than some newer Samsung phones. LG with headphone jacks and expandable memory, is really the Android phone.
Love mine and all my Apple friends and coworkers freak out when I flip open the dual screen cover... They are like GTFO with that! Then they get sad when I tell them it was a LOT cheaper than their latest iPhones.... haha....
Its $700 USD where I live. With that and its active pen support, it makes it cheaper than buying a Note 9 new lol. If it had removable batteries, it would be perfect imo!
@Brad Grant Nice to hear! But what? 15W charging?? It's QQC 4.0+. Shouldn't that mean 24W? Coz I bought the first Razer phone, and it had 4.0+ and when I calculate: V x A, I get 24W.
I totally agree!! My family & friends were speechless when I showed them my phone. They think it's extremely expensive with the dual screen.
In my eyes, LG was one of the greatest smart phone companies i’ve ever had the experience of using, I know it’s been two years since LG shut down their smart phone division, but I’m still missing the experience I had with my LG V40 ThinQ, i’ve tried using a Samsung phone, and it’s just not the same, the UI is different, and the one UI is too bloated for my liking, with two different apps to choose from for every different function. still to this day, I think about possibly buying the LG V60 ThinQ. i’m glad at least someone is willing to give it a fair chance at being a decent phone.
Never owned an LG phone , just an LG television , I might after give this phone a try .
This is the first LG phone I've owned and aside from a few software bugs this thing is amazing.
You will not be disappointed. I've owned G3, G4, V20, V30 and now the G8x dual screen. They make AWESOME UNDERRATED phones. The V60 will be my next one! Serious BEAST of a phone! So much value! Go for the V60 if you're going LG!
Agree 100%! For me it has the complete specs for me: 3.5 jack, dual screen as option, big battery, expandable storage, dual sim, and good price. It will be my next phone this year. Only thing i am not a fan with is the in display fingerprint, rather have it somewhere else. No face recognition is not a big deal for me though.
I got the V30 and it is still rock solid. No lags or issues, full day battery life (unless super heavy use occurs). I am trying to find a reason to upgrade now but I can't at this moment. I will definitely jump to it if and when the V30 dies out or starts having issues.
Keep that damn thing off Android 10 and you'll be fine. As all the good audio stuff they stripped off the V60.
@@Scott-DJ Oh really? What was stripped?
I own a v20 and have experience with the DAC , so I got a v60 recently and after about 2 hours later listening to a ton of music , the V60 had me in tears with the audio quality , it's that fucking good. Like REALLY good.
I got one off EBAY for $ 600 and what a bargain.
The battery last a long long time as well .
The amoled screen is gorgeous.
Imagine if you actually listen to a proper desktop dac amp setup. You will cry a river.
I was lucky enough last week to find one of the last new V60 phones in my area. I ditched the iPhone/Carplay and started using the headphone jack to AUX on my car radio. HUGE difference!!
I just got mine today. I love it already. Had a S8 plus prior it was my favorite phone. This might be able to get it. Great phone!
Add the librera reader app for reading a book. Also get the app called wide screen. They both work very well.
I love LG. I had a V10 and loved it until I dropped it in a toilet lol. And I've had a V20 since 2017 and I've loved this phone. Just recently updgraded to the V60 and wanted to see some reviews. So you got me excited for my new phone. ☺
I've been using the G8x dual screen and my favorite use is running a reading app on one screen and my reading playlist on the other screen
I love my G8x it has been my favorite phone since the original G-Flex. I went from the V40 to the G8x...no regrets, and everything he says about the V60 can pretty much be said about G8x except it's a 4000 mAh batt instead of 5000
@@j-dog9800
Hi, I'm looking into switching back to android and the v60 and g8x both caught my eye. I'm trying to understand the difference between the two, but aside from the size and other things I don't necessarily care about...there doesn't seem to be much?
Just curious about your experience lol. Battery life matters to me, as well as camera. I currently have an iPhone 11 and like the smaller size, battery, and camera.
Aside from that, I can figure it out and I'm not too picky.
I mainly want these for the dual screen support/functionality, and multi-tasking I can't do on my iPhone...and don't always have my iPad around to do either lol.
@@zerospecs2331 I like the G8x Dual screen. Great phone, the V60 though is the best option out of the two though. If you don't need to plow the fields so to speak the G8x would do you well. Battery life is excellent, I have had no issues with it's performance. I would recommend it highly!
Did you ever do an audio standalone video for this?
RIP LG phones. Was loyal since my first v20. hopefully they come back
Great review! I love my V60, you hit the nail on the head as I can vouch for pretty much everything you said... although I don't quite understand how you can get 2 days out of the battery lol. It definitely has great battery life I just can't seem to stretch it to 2 days. Thank you for the videos, I appreciate your hard work. Especially during times like this.
I'm a heavy user. Is the battery really good?
Bro I love this phone. I have it and this is by far the best phone I have ever had. Good for gaming. Great for multi tasking and my battery last all day I get home and there is still 30% battery life and I watch alot of videos.
My V20 is still my daily driver and my old V10 is a drone display for my Mavic Air 2.
i cracked 3 V20s . guess what i just bought another one. just need a good screen protector..now..best phone ever.or s8 active
I too have my V20 in daily use, and thanks to the user-replaceable batteries, it just keeps on working like the day I bought it (four years ago).
You won't believe if I tell you but I am still using my LG Nexus 5X because of the incredible audio speakers this phone has and the pure Android experience.
I miss my v20. I had 3 batteries to play around with
I bought a second v20 in February as a backup but I now use both at the same time. Also got a v20 for my husband. Love the v20.
Watching on my V30...was wanting to upgrade to the V30 plus because I'm so far behind id never heard of the V50...definately wanting the V60 now,it's about that time,been 4yrs
Definitely my next phone. Love my V40, loved my wife's V30, and I know I'll love the V60. Great video!
Add the librera reader app for reading a book. Also get the app called wide screen. They both work very well.
I have had this phone almost a year now, and its still a MONSTER! I got this as a replacement for the Galaxy 8. The battery caught fire on the Galaxy 8 so I got this for almost nothing and I love it. I watch TH-cam on one screen and shop or play games on the other screen. Thank you for your review!
Bought it as a work phone, the battery life is great. It’s simple & I don’t need all of the gimmicks for a work phone.
Yeah, but for. The sam amount, or less, you could get a much better experience
Two years later and I'm watching this while I wait for my V60 to arrive. Picked one up in like new condition for $220! At that price and with 5G becoming prevalent and useful, I can finally justify upgrading from my V40, which by the way, is one of the greatest phones of all time. Do I wish the V60 had a rear fingerprint sensor and higher resolution? Sure. But to this day there are still very few phones with the feature set I want, and LG has always had incredible offerings. It's a shame we won't see any more phones from them, but at least I'll get to enjoy one this one while I wait for the Sony Xperia 1 IV to come down from its staggeringly high price. (If you get a chance, it would be awesome to see a review of that phone in the future!)
Just bought one ! Love it
I keep mine in my front pocket and after a few months it has a diagonal bend from one corner to another. It will rock when flat on a table. The fact is so big is what I regret from buying mine. Still paying the phone off too. lol
Gotta wear looser pants homie
PLEASE make a review dedicated to LG V60 HIFI QUAD DAC!!!!
The audio on the v60 using my BOSE wired headphones made me cry in a good way. I have a v20 and it also has a DAC but the v60 takes it to another level.
@@TheAgentAssassin seriously? I'm upgrading from the V20 to V60.
@@richardlopez4563
I'm also still using my V20. It's been an awesome phone but I can start to tell that the time to upgrade is fast approaching. The V60 so far seems to be a nobrainer, especially with the upgraded DAC. 👍🏻
LG has improved their DAC every year. The DAC is my LG G8 is simply amazing.
Hey Jason I'm actually purchasing the V60, TMobile has the dual screen for 699. You can't beat that price for those specs.
I know it's been a while, how has the phone been for you?
Is good
I really watch your videos mostly because if your personality))
No, your reviews a awesome))
But you have your own style))👍
Hello do you know how to edit photos in the gallery? My edit icon isnt there and there isnt an option for me to do it in anywhere else. Help?!
Not buying it...? I already know of many folks (myself included) who own it! It's an amazing phone! And put yer pants back on, you'll catch a draft dude 😋
I'm still rockin' the V40 and still 100% happy. I will never understand people not giving the LG V series a look. They really are great devices. What switched me over to LG was the audio options that for whatever reason, all the others went away from. Just for that alone, I will be staying with LG.
I absolutely love my V60. Best phone I've ever owned.

@Black Cash no
@Black Cash Wrong!
Anyone know how the microphone is? Not for phone calls but for recording audio?
too expensive. not worth buying phones over 250 anymore. those days are gone.
LG V60 new is now $200
LG G2, G4, G7, and now, it's time to say goodbye. I'm throwing my hat in one last time in respect to LG's last greatest phone the V60. Just purchased mine today and am awaiting it's arrival. Through it's ups and downs (motherboard issues with the G4-6), LG phones will forever hold a place in my mind. Sad to see em go. One last thought. The leather back on the G4 with the curved screen was so awesome.
Yes! For the camera and audio reviews! 👍
THE V60 battery life is nothing short of a modern cell phone miracle.
It's that fucking good.
This old guy is so energetic that even I'm getting tired watching him and I'm 15,wow I'm exhausted
Definitely! I want one! The problem is I'm not sure which is better, the v60 dual screen or the gx8 thin q dual screen. Geez that's a mouthful, hope I got it right!
They have similar specs, but the V60 being recent has updated hardware. Now based on youtube "schooling" :) their use is basically the same, but what could help you decide better is: G8 has face unlock and is more pocket friendly for smaller size.
My V60 needs a huge pocket on me all the time or it will be huge brick in my hand. It is that huge size, reflected on the screens that I love for my daily needs though.
@@WildernessLVR thanks for the tip. I've been leaning toward the V60. But oh no now there is the Velvet too, what to do, what to do? I've watched slews of vids on the Velvet which I understand has made compromises here and there to make it more affordable, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. I thought it had been released, but I guess it hasn't. Sorry to be long winded. Thanks again.
@@nancyvernon3017 LOL! How many times I find myself lost on that "ocean of uncertainties"!!
The Velvet is a V60 stripped out of the fabulous audio hardware that every "audiofan" seems to to praise. I still have to buy some good wired headphones to appreciate that, despite always consider myself an audiofreak, but been busy simply enjoying the dual screen goodiness. It's almost like being in trance!! :)
The dualscreen case on the velvet is different than the V60's (well, its overall looks is). Some people prefer it to not being a fingerprint magnet. I prefer the V60's mirrorlike front glass. I can completely ignore any fingerprint while looking at my reflection. No, I'm not a vain person, but do like to see if I'm at my best before every business meeting and none of the 2 major screens has the polarized mirror effect the front screen has.
Did I just add fuel to your fire? LOL
Anyway, performancewise all squeeze more than we need on daily basis. You'll go happy with either. Budget vs size might be your equation.
Velvet is taller and slimmer than the G8X.
By the way I was about to buy the G8, but the store didn't have it and got the V60 which I didn't even know existed. Till today would be happy with either, but when I buy good headphones will be glad I was struck by pure luck. Also got free LG earbuds on the deal, but they're nothing to brag about, so I do it for the screens and pen compatibilities 🤣
According to my Verizon store they can't keep them in stock
seriously ? I'm curious
Neither tmobile I bought mine today but I have to get it shipped in
"I'm still not wearing pants"...me too bruh, me too
I just want to ask 1 question? Is it true that LG has less software updates than other phones? (If yes like for every how many months until another update come?) Want to change my phone for V60 probably when the price drops
Sw updates LG Vs Samsung is also an issue for me and I would love to know if LG is now competitive ..I generally keep my phones for 3 years and Samsung has been amazing in this regard.
It’s mostly LG’s poor track record of android updates that keeps me away.
YEAH the V20 I own works perfectly I'd be happy with android 10-11. BUT I will say the price of the v60 right now makes it a major steal.
Coughs in Samsung 💀
That's android's business model in general. Hence fuck android and I hope linux phones beats it especially plasma mobile is working to emulate android apps.
I would have bought this phone if it had BLACK color! Color plays an important role, LG needs to have that in mind.
I have this phone OMG its dope 5stars
Everyonw has a galaxy or a corny ass Iphone well ima LG Guy thank u very much
LG phones have always been underrated. I've used them for years and see iPhone and Samsung using their ideas/inventions.
I'd love a video on the Quad Dac. Yes I would.
How does this measure up to lgv30? I haven't upgraded since 2017 with lgv30 and everyone asks why I love my phone and won't upgrade. Need honest opinion.
Surely I wanna see audio and cam review`:-) Go 4 it, ywah
Great review. I have not removed my LG V60 from the case since the day I got it. I got a nice leather belt holster that holds the phone while in the dual-screen case.
7:16 You know the procedures
OK Floss, hashtag bars..dueces
I love LG phones, they do it all, with the DAC being the killer feature for me. But phones are getting too large and that's stopping me from upgrading. I'm happy with the size of the G7/G8.
Can't beat that intro! 😂😂
Can you charge the phone while using the dual screen case? The port on the bottom of the case somehow looks closed.
The quad DAC ON my LG V30 pushes my HyperX Cloud II head set to it's limits. I thought it was a decent headset before but oh my lord are the LG DACs capable of some impressive audio
I agree with you. As a proud owner of a brand new LG G8X, LG really knows how to make great high end flagships at an acceptable price. Love the 2nd screen case. I'm still learning how to use it and it's been 2 and a half months!
I love my LG V40, amazing deal now at $350 new unlocked. It would be nice if it had a larger battery but other than that it's a fantastic phone.
I use the V40 myself at 3110x1440 for the price it's the best deal on the market right now.
Agreed, the V40 is an amazing phone! I fought for days about "upgrading" to the V60 and finally gave in. It was one of the best decisions i've made, truly. I have compared both displays side by side and they somehow pulled off some voodoo magic with the 1080 display on the V60. It looks AMAZING beside the V40's display and I feel like the V40's display was one of the best on the market.
Sold! Excellent review. Buying the V60 this weekend. Now about that DAC Audio explanation .. yes please!!
Without question the V60 is the best value for money flagship you can buy in 2020 and that's not forgetting that the $699 OP8 exists. It's good that the V60 is more readily available through carriers than last years V50 which was exclusive to Verizon and Sprint so hopefully the V60 will get more attention. For me personally, I have a love=hate relationship with massive phones like the V60. While I love them when at home lounging at the end of the day, during the day and on the go I use my phone one-handed most of the time and get way more use from that one hand experience than I ever would with a phone of this size (for me this comes from experience, I own another phone as large if not larger than the V60 and tried using that day to day) but I know there are those that love the larger size.
V60 is the Best LG so far.
(And the display is so good I don't even miss 1440p on V40+V50.)
This is my first LG phone. Couldn't be happier with my LG V60 DUEL SCREEN! Went to Verizon for an upgrade and planned on the Galaxy Note. I had no idea this phone even existed, thankful the sales rep brought this phone to my attention. I use my phone for business so having a duel screen makes work so much easier. Also like having the option to carry one or both screens.
Love your demeanor here and the staggering truth, no bull.. I own this phone V60, its incredible and we bought two on a BOGO with Verizon so we paid $475 each, got the two screens, case, screen protector and a bagged cleaning kit for the screens, it was a Fathers day special.. We are over the top happy. We have found a couple easy glitches more than well easy to live with and I would say mostly software writing in my opinion. This phone is an unsung hero in my book.
In your opinion I have the v10 and is working fine when kept clean of junk. Thinking about an upgrade ,want to stay in the Vseries which should it be ?
I went from a Nexus 6 to V20 to V40 to v60. Absolutely love the V60 so far. Thought the screen might be too large compared to the V40. Now I can never go back to a smaller display at all.
So am I trippin? I just got this phone and one of the main reasons is it has a headphone jack. I can not get any of my earbuds to work its like the phone isn't even registering anything I plug in. So whats the point of this headphone jack if you still need an adapter?
I've had it about a month. Got the phone free and the dual screen for free. Totally love it! Been an LG fan since the G2. Great phone and specs
LG V60 still has Knock unlock?
For me is the second best after fingerprint.
I got mine from my mother in law that passed away but all I have is the phone I didn't get the other screen does it supposed to come with it or is it optional?
I loved my LG V30 dearly, but the long wait for android pie kinda soured my feelings with LG. I love the V series but I've switched to OnePlus until LG improves their update rollouts. Awesome video!
I have the LG v60 and the note 10 plus and I got to say I like the LG v60 better its a no-nonsense phone with a flatscreen it just works good with a big battery software is boring but I just put Nova launcher on it makes the whole phone a lot better. And T-Mobile has it for 699 right now
I've been binging on v60 reviews for days now. KAILAN BA TO IRERELEASE SA PILIPINAAS??!!
Nasa shopee pero 2nd hand..
WTAF is up with the F'ing god damned proprietary plug on the freaking dual screen unit? WTF LG ?? is your brain addled or something? besides that so far its amazing.
I got a V60 demo and managed to remove the Retail Mode app. But still only charges to 50. Any idea what's the password? For retail mode on V60.
I'm thinking about getting the v60, is also good for picture taking?
The LG V60 is in Canada finally. Definitely picking it up once my contract is up. I'm super excited for it
I can get the velvet and v60 for the same price what would you get and why?
LG really is one of the most underrated companies out there.
What hurt them the most was the g4/v10 bootloop fiasco. They played it off for so long and denied replacements.
Their phones have been pretty solid ever since though. They tend to always try new things on their devices too instead of just making me-too phones.
Their biggest flaw is selling them high price and then dropping them in half a few months later. They need to just lower the prices period and I would have no doubt they would become an actual competitor in the market.
is the v60 a better option than the s10 + at the same price?
That's what I wanna know!
I've had an LGV30 for 3 years. I can't see myself getting any other phone. The headphone jack makes a huge difference.
