How many users have decided to keep their V20?

I actually almost like it better than Note 7. I got used to the screen quality, and the phone has been running PERFECT with no lags unlike the Note 7. Also, Second screen has been so useful for me that it beats any feature on Note 7.

Only problem is shutting off the screen. When I double tap the top of the screen, it usually either opens pull down menu or clicks on apps on my second screen.

I love the Samsung superamoled but every one I've had had screen burn in. So I don't miss that. As for your double tap, you have to do it in an empty part of your screen with no widget or app icon.

I don't understand your problem with the screen. I've owned 5 Samsung phones, all with Super AMOLED screens. And I love the IPS display on the v20.

My problem is that the colors aren't vibrant enough for ME. I am used to the sharp contrast of most Amoled phones with colors that pop out. My eyes aren't getting that from this phone no matter which setting I put it on. And believe me I am trying. It's not a deal breaker for me, just... if anything a huge annoyance. It's annoying to me to always look at an image and feel that the colors aren't the same on this phone. That's why I am constantly changing the settings, which I shouldn't have to do.

I have said this before when users c/o the color accuracy of the V20: Go into Comfort View and set it to "Low". This will tone down the bluish 9100K screen tone.

Thanks for the tip but I tried that as well. My phone is currently on Comfort View and manual mode color settings.

Definitely keeping mine. I'm not a N7 transplant and I've been wanting this phone since it was first announced.

Yup I am a N7 transplant and I probably apart from reviews would've never taken a second look at this phone. (I have been burned by LG before as well). But I am glad I have it. Because now I know I have options when it comes to picking phones in the future. Alot of us were forced into picking different phones because of the N7 debacle. Most of us only used Samsung because we never really liked anything else that was presented to us. But me having to use this phone makes me see that when you try a phone for yourself and just read reviews it is 2 different beasts. This phone is just like certain men, they have to gradually grow on you and then you fall in love.....lmao.

I'm keeping mine. I'm coming from a Note 4. So far, I haven't found anything that I really don't like about it. Very fast and smooth . There seems to be a slight difference in size when I'm holding it compared to my Note 4 (both are in a case), but I'm getting used to it.

I took a couple of pictures with it, and I'm happy with them, but then, I'm not really all that big into photography.

I haven't had a chance to load any of my music yet, so I can't say anything about the sound quality. I can say that the call quality so far is outstanding for me - crystal clear.

I only wish there were better screen protectors available locally, because the Bodygardz one I had applied by the at&t rep is sorely lacking. It doesn't adhere totally to the screen, but it will have to do until something else is available. Also, can't wait until a better selection of cases become available.

It doesn't do anything for me. It only works when I tap close to second screen. And I have no widgets. hmmm

I'll be keeping mine until there is a new Note from Samsung next fall.

 

[vladfan]

Keeping it.

Definitely keeping mine. I hated to part with my N7 but the V20 has really helped ease the pain. It's a great phone. I am a previous LG user. I use the second screen more than I used the edge panels. I'm also glad to have my on-screen buttons back.

Another Note 7 transplant here! I'm keeping it.

 

[tadpoles]

It has been about 2 weeks for some users. Just curious to how many members here are going to keep their LG V20?

Me, myself, and I. That's like 3. Definitely keeping them.

A Note 7 transplant here, while I'm missing the stylus and not sure I like the power button on the back, I'm liking it ,much more than I thought I would.

I hated it when LG first moved it to the back, now I hate holding any phone that doesn't have it. the only thing I may not like about this phone is that the volume buttons aren't on the back. So much easier to take photos that way.

The thing that drives me crazy now is that my S7e doesn't have double-tap to wake. My V20s and V10 have it and I've gotten used to it like second nature. When I double-tap on on my S7e's screen it just does nothing and stares back at me as if to say, "Really? REALLY?!"

I have lift to wake on my 7+

 

[Strong_Genetics]

Keeping it for sure......Havent even been thinking of or missing my Note 7

 

[bluesboy77]

I'm keeping mine for sure, but I have a second line with an upgrade soon, so I'll either go iPhone 7+ with that or Pixel XL
