    Considering the G8. Convince me.

    I think that it really comes down to personal preference when buying a new phone. I try out new phones and brands, but end up coming back to LG. Samsung phones are nice, but my experience with them, they always bog down after a while and I'm just not a fan of the curved edge screen. The pixel...

    Where is LG?

    This is what I'm talking about. LG really doesn't seem to care or want to sell phones, at least in the US. Verizon is the biggest telecom in the US market and LG isn't even trying to sell or market phones through them. For a lot of people not living in big cities, Verizon is the only wireless...

    Where is LG?

    I have the V30S and my wife's Galaxy S7 has been getting long in the tooth, so last weekend we went to a couple Verizon stores and Best Buy. She likes my LG V30S and wanted to go see the G7 and V40. So, headed out and the Verizon stores just had Apple, Samsung, and the Pixel phone. No LG. Went...

    Update server down?

    I'm on 8.0.0 and the March 1 security patch. Hasn't updated since I got in May.

    Update server down?

    I have had my V30s since the end of May, and I can't seem to trigger an update when I check for an update. Has anyone else got any updates security wise on their V30s?

    V30s thinQ is back to $599 at B&H. Don't wait, looks like another flash sale.

    Unlocked LG V30S $599 at B&H

    Unlocked LG V30S is now $599 at B&H Photo now. I paid $679, called B&H and they refunded my card the 80 bucks. Great unlocked phone for 600 bucks with free shipping and no tax outside of New York.

    Should I upgrade from a V30?

    It is really nice without a case. I have as thin a tpu case as I could find, but I take it off routinely to feel the phone naked. I've had it about a week now and I don't have any complaints. Glad I passed up the V30 on Verizon and waited for the V30S. Enjoy!

    Should I upgrade from a V30?

    I got the matte blue and it looks cool to me. The sides of the phone are gloosy and the back is matte. When the light hits the matte in certain angles, it gives it a really cool look. You also don't get all the fingerprints all over the back with the matte blue. I would suggest a case, it's very...

    Should I upgrade from a V30?

    Edit: Nice upgrade from the V20, not V30

    Should I upgrade from a V30?

    Got the V30S yesterday from B&H. Swapped out the sim card and the phone worked great with Verizon. I don't have the Verizon voicemail app and no Wi-Fi calling, but other than that everything works just fine. Don't have all the Verizon bloat and all the bloat apps that Verizon adds to the phone...

    Should I upgrade from a V30?

    Thanks for the info! When I called B&H initially, they told me that it wouldn't work on Verizon. I saw your post today, called B&H and they said that the V30S thinQ should work good on Verizon. It's currently on sale for $679, so I pulled the plug and got it. Hopefully they are right and it...

    Should I upgrade from a V30?

    The V30s thinQ doesn't have the 3G CDMA radios Verizon uses and talking with B&H Photo, doesn't seem like Verizon will activate the V30s thinQ on their network. I have a V20 and was looking to upgrade to a unlocked V30s thinQ, but doesn't sound good being on Verizon.

    Is anyone still keeping their V20?

    I still have my V20. I have had 2 previous V20's due to problems and have had to have them replaced. The first V20's external speaker/amp went, replaced, then the second V20's microphones went out. Replaced and the 3rd has been the charm. I have flirted with an unlocked V30 from B&H Photo, but...

    Release date?

    What happened to this phone? It's been what, like 6 weeks since announcing this phone and now crickets... The Samsung S9 was announced and promptly in consumers hands, which was a new year model phone for Samsung. LG's V30s is just a small iteration update on a old phone that should have been...
