I've used the LG V10, you have questions. Have at me!

[MrMLK]

I've read the the second screen will turn off if you put the phone in your pocket? Is this an orientation thing or a proximity thing? Does it turn off in a bag? If it is face down on a table?


Is there a separate brightness control for the second screen? If not, is it locked to the main screen brightness or is it permanent auto-brightness?

Hi Phil, Did you get to use the V10, as a phone? Make a call, receive a call? Speakerphone? Overall phone usage? It's never reviewed!
I use these devices as a phone still..... Hard to believe...

Thus my same question above. It's a phone, first. Others are secondary IMO.

One video I watched showed a setup screen that indicated McAfee antivirus was installed by LG and that you must use it as it can not be turned off.

Anyone know if that is correct?

I have now the LG G4 in your opion if you had the G4 is it worth upgrading to the V10 or I should (you would) rather wait for the next "G" variant?

I don't own a G4, but this would be my take. If the new video options are what I've been [really] wanting on the G4, I would get the V10. If not, don't get it. It's essentially a G4 in a 5.7 screen with a few new things (2nd display, video options, etc.). The battery is still at 3000mAh. But hey, that's just me. $.02

I have the G4 now, and I will be upgrading, that is if the slow-mo mode is right. The G4's was/is horrible. Then again, I may still upgrade besides that.

It has a lot of useful features. The secondary screen. I think that's great. It stays on regardless of your screen being idle, but you can turn it off. I have issues searching through homescreen and app drawers for favorite and recently used apps. The secondary screen resolves that for me.

I love video recording, and I have some issues with that on the G4, the manual controls and electronic stabilization in video mode resolves that. My has gotten really low on storage, to the point that I got that insufficient storage message. I have a high speed 64GB Micro SD card, and still have about 40GB left on that. But apps take up space, and can only be installed on your internal storage. I think they can be backed u on a micro sd card, but they run bad. The V10 has double the space at 64GB vs. the G4's 32.


If you listen to music on your phone and are a audiophile or music enthusiast, it has HiFi audio boosting 16-bit audio production to 32-bit. I am, and I use my smartphone avidly for my music consumption.

The audio recording options are cool too. Having a wind filter option on video and being able to decide where the audio is focused on and having the 3 mics. This is perfect for vloggers, or just someone who loves recording video.


But it all runs down to your preferences.

Does this phone offer wireless charging?

When do you think there will be a U. S. release date announced?

I'd like to know as well

I'm curious also. Especially since putting a quick circle case on it just so you can qi charge would completely defeat the purpose of the back design and material

Looking at the specs on GSMArena it says Radio: To be confirmed. Can you clarify if its a yes or no. Thanks

According to TechRadar, it does.

I don't have enough post to post the link, but it's their hands-on review that they posted of it 11 days ago.

 

[tpick002]

Thanks I will go on there and read their article.

Would you consider this an upgrade from the Xperia Z3?

 

[Toddamnit]

no wireless charging

 

[Andrew Bonner]

But there will be a Qi-certified back cover that will allow for wireless charging.

That's just DUMB. If LG is going to make the case for it just like they do with the G4, why in the heck would they not be able to put the contacts inside the back cover? Especially when they are going to lengths to redesign the back plate. Goofy.

 

[MrMLK]

I don't think it's going to be a case. I think they are got g to sell replacement back plates with the qi receiver built in.

They probably left it off the standard v10 as a cost saving device.

I'm thinking this will be my next phone. Been sitting on an upgrade for quite some time. I have a Note 3, skipped the Note 4 waiting for the Note 5, underwhelmed by the Note 5's missing features and especially Samsung so looking for my next phone. Hope they don't wait too long to release it here. Locked bootloader annoys me but it's not a dealbreaker for me. It's the cost of having to buy from a carrier due to being a poor married boy and needing a monthly payment plan.
