The LG V60 is here: My Phone of the Year.

[Morty2264]

The store situation maybe lacking with the situation going on. I went into T-Mobile today and it was like I was walking into a doctor's office the way they were gloved up.lol But I get it. But they didn't have any in stock. Didn't try to get me any information on when they might be in stock or any other alternative methods. Looking to order online instead today.

You're right! It may be a while before we can get our hands on them.

My husband and I were looking for toilet paper on Sunday and ended up in a Bell store (because of me lool) and I immediately went to hold the S20. The sales rep told me they aren't allowing people to hold the phones unless they were interested in buying them - so I put it down. A little scary but I totally get it. They are continuously wiping and sanitizing. Still enjoyed holding the S20, however!

Just ordered my V60 ATT Variant here in the US today, can't wait to get it, then get the dual screen. This will be my first LG phone, I took notice of a few LG phones over the years, but never pulled the trigger till now. It is the specs and dual screen which sold me, I can actually see myself getting some use out of it.

So why no V60 forum here yet?

Agreed. I'll try to pass word along.

I found this video focusing (no pun intended) on the camera abilities. Looks like a good overview.

One of the comments said the first tip should be to install Gcam. I responded asking why I would want to hinder the phone like that. Lol

LOL, yep. Actually the camera is the last thing on my list to look at. As long as it takes "decent" pics, I'm fine. I just don't take that many pics.

Yeah I just saw this yesterday and it was very good. I'll probably never install G Cam on this phone as I installed and never used it on my OnePlus 7 Pro. The camera systems really have gotten a lot better and now that most phones had what the V30 I had at the time was lacking which was better selfie pics, portrait mode and night mode, I no longer have need for G Cam. Also the ffc on the V60 is a real improvement.

 

[Mooncatt]

Personally I'd be ok without a selfie cam. I never use it and would rather have an uninterrupted screen.

Yes I just ordered mine this morning as well!

 

[Mooncatt]

Lucky. I still have to wait a couple days just to pre-order.

Still not sure if I'll pull the trigger with everything going on right now.

No pressure

I think he will

Perhaps it's more a matter of when, not if. Lol

I think with the LGs it makes sense to wait a few months for a price drop. I realize that's true of a lot of brands but LG drops more rapidly than many. At least it did with the V30 and V40.

That depends. When I got my V20, all the initial rebates and the value of the freebies added up to more than the phone cost. In effect, I was paid to take the phone.

I got mine on pre order with Verizon and it didn't add up to that much

Well, just got an email, ATT cancelled my order! Said something about not being able to verify it was me and to come to a store. I have ordered 3 other phones from ATT the same way, not sure what happened. If I look at the order on ATT site it just says...

Order status: Snap! We had to cancel some or all of your order.
Don't worry, we'll release any pending charges within 3 business days.

Want to buy something else?Shop online, or Go to an AT&T store.



Maybe they are out, I did call my local store and they have none.

Oh wow that's so strange. As far as I know my order should be here on Thursday. I hope they get it sorted out for you.

Ok cool. Samsung may be working the orders and just wanted to make sure you didn't want one of the S20 phones.

Lol, been Note8, Note9, Note10+ owner, ready for something different.

Haha cool. The OnePlus 7 Pro was a sweet diversion no doubt from the V series(I had the V10-30) but this is a welcome back for me. I have been so close to giving Apple a chance since the iPhone 8 and especially the 12 Pro series but I just never pulled the trigger on those. Maybe that'll be next sometime in 2023 or so when I plan to upgrade again if I don't before then. And that's only if I'm still here on this Earth which I hope to be but we can only hope.

Are you a big picture taker? If so, hope to see you in the pictures/videos thread under the V60.
