Poll: Is the V20 your most favorite phone of all time?

[recDNA]

The app I use as a dashcam you set the amount do space to use and it automatically deletes the oldest unless you save it in archives.

What's it called?

I had the Note 3. It was a beast when it first came out ( wow, built in 32GB storage instead of 16GB). Mine had a screen burn in and it annoyed me. Also battery stopped holding a good charger after 1 year, had to buy another one. The chrome paint on the plastic bezel also started to chip off, didn't like the cheap build quality. The wireless back for the Note 3 was sold separately. It was also a bit thicker so you couldn't really put a case over it. Also, the accessories were rare in stores.

Accessories are nonexistent for LG V20 except for cases and screen protectors. (no qi charging back nor LG official HDMI cable - got both for Note 3 from Amazon and not only worked but were official Samsung accessories) I found a case to fit my Note 3 with charging back. "Cheap build" usually refers to plastic which is the best material by far for cell phone construction. Not a mark on mine since always been in a tpu hybrid case with hard plastic frame. Yes it fits. Mine hasn't burned in yet. Way better phone on day 1 than V20 on day one but updates always slow down Samsungs.

Oh... and the only brand phone with lots of official accessories in stores are iPhones. At least Samsung built official accessories of the Note 3.

V20 the best phone for traveling

Took my V20 on a solo trip to NYC and it's been great. Using the phone non-stop to take photos without worrying about low battery since I have several spare batteries pre-charged, swapped the battery like 3 times in a single day. Don't need to ask anyone to take a photo of me, the front camera has an ultra wide angle selfie and I'm able to capture everything (front facing camera HDR looks awesome too). I find myself using the wide angle a lot, I really think wide angle cameras will be on ALL future phones because it comes in handy (if you don't think it's useful, you probably don't even have a wide angle camera in your phone). The 16MP takes amazing shots especially outdoors and in daylight, the 16MP really captures the fine details in the distance (street signs, sky scrapers, etc).

Are there any other phones like this that would suit a traveler? I can't imagine having to take a break to find a wall outlet to charge, and not having a wide angle front and rear camera. At least have a huge battery to go all day with heavy usage.

It's not useful to me, and I have the V20 too.

I'd much rather have a telephoto camera than wide angle. Any time I've traveled, most of the stuff I want to photograph are further away than I can get to.

Re: V20 the best phone for traveling

So we need wide-angle, regular, and telephoto lenses on phones. 3 cameras!

(I'm sure someone will do that next year).

Just make it a zoom lens.

Hi flying,

Please check your forum private messages when you get a minute to respond to my message.

Thanks!

I've used this one on an LG G4 with good success. I can't seem to find a reliable holder for my dash, so I never installed it on the V20 to test the wide angle.

All my phones have been great with exception of Samsung Nexus. $800 pig.

All time favorite: Note 3.
