Here's a thread I made with some lists of pros and cons. My #3 negative is no longer relevant as LG has brought back the app drawer. I'm actually thankful they didn't initially as I had never tried and launch but now love (Nova Prime)...

Here's a thread I posted awhile ago. I'd change my comment about the no app drawer in the launcher as LG has supplied one now (and I'm using Nova Launcher now, anyway). I'd say that it's still a little buggy overall. Other than that, if I were having to buy a new phone today, I'd make the same...

I've never had a problem with plastic phones and how they feel. This is the first metal phone I've owned, and yes, it feels like plastic to me. And not a good plastic. As far as the back button placement, it's perfect (and this is the first phone I've owned with this placement). I love the...

Most people are on Verizon here. I don't connect to the wifi (because it's restricted), and I keep my GPS off. Today, it's doing much better, but still not great. One thing that's different about today is that I turned off the fingerprint access to the phone. Normally I like to keep it activated...

It's been known to be that way in this particular building for some people with some phones. My Galaxy S5 never had this kind of battery drainage in the same building.

I've had mine (with Verizon) since May. It's never frozen/rebooted on me.

I've noticed my battery life has seriously started slipping as well. I've had my phone since May and also have 2 spare batteries. I'd noticed a steady decline during the summer but am now noticing drastic declines. Part of it MIGHT be that I've switched buildings recently at work (and the...

I know everyone's got their own preferences, but this phone feels horrible to me without a case. It's very slippery and the back cover has some sort of odd grainy-but-not-exactly-grainy feel to it. It feels like I'm just going to throw it at any moment. It doesn't really matter so much to me as...

" Each year they introduce a new feature or two, and sometimes take a feature away from a previous year. When people notice and get upset, they usually put the feature back in. Especially if there is a high demand for it". I'm really disappointed, although not surprised, that there wasn't...

Couldn't agree more. No need to carry a cord and a spare charger, no need to make sure the charger is charged, no need to make sure the charger is connected to the phone while in my pocket, no need to worry that someone else has used up the charge on your spare charger first, and no need to make...

To sort of put it in perspective, I'm coming from years of Galaxy phones, my last being an S5 (which I loved). The positives - wide angle lens - Type C connector - fingerprint sensor - the knock/knock feature - suprisingly, the always on display (which, prior to buying the phone, looked fairly...

I was an avid Samsung owner for many years, but I'd finally had enough when they started becoming more like Apple. Take away the replaceable battery, and you've suddenly got a ton of owners who will be desperate to upgrade their phone (old battery) in 2 years. They took away the microSD card...

Well, whether you call it lag or a slow phone, mine is the same way from time to time. I've been trying to note what circumstances might be causing it (such as certain apps running or whatever). Anyone else?

Mabye this solution might work - I've not had a problem with this phone, but my Galaxy S5 was touchy. When I bought a new car, it would only pair with my phone if it was the FIRST device I paired on that phone. I already had some bluetooth speakers paired with my device, and I had to...

I've owned Galaxy phones for many years and never had the need to use a launcher (and had never tried one). I bought my LG G5 knowing that I would NOT be using their stock launcher (no app drawer? seriously?). Anyway, the Nova launcher has been awesome! I love the customization abilities. I'm...
