    LG G5 as a replacement for my Galaxy S5, or...?

    On April 2nd, my wife and I switched from our Samsung S5's to our current LG G5's. We love them. 1. We paid about 579 each, plus tax, at a Sprint store. 2. We had the same issues as you with voice on our Samsung S5's. The G5 has been perfect in this regard, and my wife, who is a heavy user of...

    Finally got to see the g5

    I love my G5, but I did switch from a 2-year-old Galaxy S5. Your G4 is relatively new, so maybe just wait for the next generation of the G5 or V10.

    Fingerprint sensor sometimes stops working

    That's weird. My experience is that the fingerprint sensor is fast and works every time. Seeing as you've also had issues with your G3, you may need to play detective and start by closely looking at your settings and apps. Good luck!

    Looks like the LG G5 isn't actually made out of metal on the outside...

    LG G5 unboxing

    I went back and saw the rest of the video. My opinion still stands, but I'll add that I found her opinionated, whiny, and nitpicky. Granted, this is the only video I've seen of hers. Maybe she was just having a bad day, but I doubt I'll go back for more. Actually, that is negative bias, and...

    Erica Griffin and Jerry rig everything

    That "plastic" was likely some kind of primer to get the metallic coating to adhere properly. Aluminum is usually anodized, painted or powder coated to minimize corrosion. Here's a good link: https://www.saf.com/how-to-specify/how-to-decide-between-anodizing-painting-and-powder-coating/

    LG G5 unboxing

    She had an obvious negative bias even before she opened the box. It got progressively worse, so I stopped watching at 4:14. Reviewers are only human but I expect them to make at least some effort at being fair.
