LG G6 After the Buzz - PocketNow

Just got mine last week. Love it so far, but the battery life on the V20 was a little better. I do like the form factor though, much easier to handle.
 
Idk when i comes to battery i had/have between 5-8h SoT on G6 so can't complain about that, when it comes to camera i wish they get us blur option and portrait option with some future updates... Camera is pretty good aswell, though front is really crappy quality but unimportent to me..

Screen super bright and colorfull love it, design of the phone beautiful, uix idk i always loved lgs skin, though it would be nice to see some other options in smart settings for ex. and other things i saw on my brothers honor 8 which is last years phone.

SP835 would be nice for the future if someone plans to use phone for several years but hey, it performs really good with last years chip so far at least for me. Hmm, i love how they reduced heating problems, the phone is cold even at really hot summer days, hmm quick charge could be faster though we actually got fast charger with it but it's okay 1h:40 min to 100%, hmm fingerprint reader could be much faster, on brothers honor it reacts instantly but again nothing that bothers me too much or at all...

Storage for future phones i think it's useless to put less than 64gb, i am not a fan of sd cards and don't use them in phone for several years now and probably won't in the future... But 32gbs so far enough for me...

Action centar could have more options, for ex. my brother can download them on his honor...
Aswell as the mods on camera so that would be nice to see with some future updates...

Love the the ip certificat aswell used it to shoot pictures and videos while on vacation in austria during rough rain.. 😀

I miss the led notification but kinda god used to that it's gone, i mean iphones never had it so their owners survived it, and yeah i definetly miss the IR blaster now i have to use my remote 😢

Idk what else to say i have the G6 for 2-3 months and so far no regrets and i tend to use it until my contract with provider finishes so maybe then i'll get the G8 😀 I am glad i gave another chance to the LG after the G3. And i am glad i didn't get the iphone 7 instead or S8 ( samsung hater here 😝 ) So idk what else to say but i would definetly recommend the phone to people who are maybe requestioning to buy it.. Until we see the V30, the G6 is from my point of view definetly LG's best phone so far after never forgotten G2...

Jaime likes his G6.. Let's face it.. He has the choice of any phone.. He uses the G6, that says it all for me!
 
yeah it was really cool to meet him at San Diego Comic Con this year.. and he was using the KEYOne. haha

Oh nice! I would like to meet him one day :P.

Yeah I remember in one of his more recent vids he said the KEYOne is his daily driver now.
 
I still very much love this phone. But i still have yet to get proficient at typing on this phone. I've tried several keyboards. I had the G4 and it was a lot easier and I had better success typing on it.
 
It is a pretty amazing phone but the more I use it I realize little things that are causing me to like it less. For instance the camera and picture qualities. It can't compare to my wife's iPhone 7 plus pictures. Me and her would take the exact photos of our kids and the iPhone produces sharper more vibrant pics

And the slowdown is starting to show up alot more for me now. Especially on certain games and some apps.

Unfortunately my wandering eyes is looking at the note 8 or even the one plus 5...

thanks for the info. Tried out Google HDR+, got the APK file from XDA. And works amazing. I miss the portrait mode from the iPhone 7 plus. And this has one.

See below. Amazing pics. (One without background blur, second with) Thanks man

Man after the LG V30 is released I kinda feel this is what the G6 should have been the whole time. SD835, OLED screen etc.

I think LG should have gone with 6gb ram to compete with the note 8. But heard the price of the V30 may be $699, which is about $250 less than the Note 8
