LG G6 Reviews & Comparisons

Re: S8 vs S7 vs S6 vs S5 - Camera (surprising)

I've had S6, S7, & S8 and still have the 6&8. In good light outdoors the S6 rules, it's not even close. The ability to crop and zoom while still retaining detail is astonishing - again only in good light. The S7 and especially the S8 are vastly better at indoor shots, especially when is comes to balancing varying areas of brightness. Take a picture in a fairly dim room with a lamp in a corner and the results are better than most SLR's. Video on the S7&8 is a bit disappointing. I don't feel it's any better and with the lower overall resolution, zooming more than slightly yields very poor results. Overall the S8 is a good camera but you can definitely tell they are reaching the limits with the current setup. Most of what you'll see going forward is likely to be "party tricks" or specialized situation optimization.

I have to agree that the S6 is no contest in good light. Even my S7 Active takes better pictures than my new S8.

The S6 camera was amazing IMO. I was blown away when I got that phone. I remember thinking that my S7 Edge didn't quite feel like it took as nice of photos as the S6. I've only had the S8+ for a week and a half so I haven't really decided how I feel about the camera yet. I do know that it's way better than my V20. I was not impressed with the V20 camera at all. I got some good photos with it, yes but in anything other than perfect lighting, I feel like it fell short.

Good evening guys,

First time posting so be gentle with me.

I have the wonderful samsung galaxy s7 edge and I am currently experiencing an issue with the back facing camera, when it loads up there is a almost dotted line along the bottom, this turns and white and black dependent on what I am focusing the camera on. It's shows up on all photos and videos and it's really annoying as this phones camera is a beauty. I have attached photos and I am hoping and praying that somebody as seen this before as the gentleman at samsung hadn't!

Many thanks for any help in advance!

Justin

Another Review of the LG G6

It's cool to see bigger YouTube accounts starting to hop on the G6 to reviews. Hopefully popularity for this phone can continue to grow.

Jeremiah thanks for sharing this link. I liked how he did the camera picture comparison and showing one of the Samsung and then one of the LG and then how the screen line went across the show the middle difference between the two. I've just never seen results from a camera like the LG G6 on any other smartphone before.

It would be awesome to see more brand and consumer awareness for phones other than iPhone and Samsung!
