I have a G5 and love it, but I'm intrigued by the V20. How's the size? It is a big phone. Hard to handle with one hand???
 
My previous phones were a S6 Edge+ and the Note 7 which are about the same size as the V20.

The grip for the Note 7 was the best with the way the sides and slight curve of the edges were made.

The V20 is difficult to handle because of the slippery feel of the material used imho.

I would not dare to even attempt to use the V20 with one hand ........ but then again I have small hands ?!
 
Mostly two hands operation. My second 5.7 beside 5.5. I can't go any smaller.

I love it and if it's too slippery for you just use protection.
 
I came from a G5, had the Nexus 6 before that. It is harder to hold, you can pull off one hand but it's slick so be careful. It has a gesture you can turn on where to swipe along the UI buttons at the bottom to shrink the screen which helps in one hand.

My Nexus 6 was far worse, this one is reasonable except for frantic typing if you get a case that's easy to hold I think.

If it matters I'm 6' with pretty normal sized hands, your experience may vary based on hand size.
 
I love big phones. Nexus 6 was one of my favorites, along with the Note 3, 4, 5. I may end up with the V20..
 
I've used big phones for a few years so this isn't anything new to me. Previously I had an S7edge, Note 7, 6 plus and Lumia 1520. The Lumia was BIG...

As far as one handed, it's possible for some things but depends on your hands. I still type with two or use voice typing if I'm really in the go.
 
It's a little on the big side for me. I've made some changes to help with one handed use, but I do wish the volume buttons were either lower or still on the back for easy reach.

How does the v20 compared to your 7 Edge
 
I love huge phones as I am old and have eye issues.... Coming from a Note 4. The BIGGER the phone is.... the better for me..
 
Just a reminder that the display can be sized down for one-handed use by swiping across the on-screen buttons.
 
Coming from a note 4 there is not much a difference in size. The v20 can easily slip out of your hands though. A case or skin can easily alleviate that.

I agree. I'm not liking the side buttons. Miss them being on the back
