Comment: Compare feelings with Mi5
The front camera is of very mediocre quality, for me it doesn’t matter absolutely, but I warn you, it’s weak even with good lighting, soap, otherwise the phone is beautiful and I honestly don’t understand why it isn’t as popular as its Korean competitor apparatus, nothing but the wow effect and fake oversaturated colors, he is not able to offer)
It is beautiful in your hand, you take it and feel it - a thing, a style, a power or something, a brutal piece of metal clad in glass (I highly recommend taking black to blend the screen frame with the color of the case)
I cannot say anything about the quality of the screen, it is as bright as the Mi5 and there are no highlights, so I didn’t have 10 Chinese out of 10 for building (I didn’t check for moisture protection)
To my sincere surprise, it perfectly holds a charge, under the same conditions of use, my Mi5 would die by 6 pm, the same device confidently holds up deep into the night and still remains (3000 vs. 3300)
The sound is beautiful, I listen in conjunction with Sony MDR-1AS and I am delighted
Sinezub works great, not a single crack, peep, tear and distortion
The shell is pretty, with a lot of settings (who needs it) and simply intuitive (for those who do not need settings)
The camera on the automation is not very accurate in low light conditions, but everything changes dramatically with a manual add-on (I really liked the feature, where the focus areas are highlighted, I really have not seen this anywhere and it is very convenient!)
A wide-angle camera is always useful and I am sure that its use will be much more justified than the double zoom that other manufacturers beckon
In general, I am delighted, the company has worked on bugs, did not reinvent the wheel and is now moving in the right direction, the only thing left is to get more aggressive advertising on a par with Samsung / Apple
P.S Once it was the LG G2, I still keep it as a keepsake, even though I ditched it, but it was beautiful, and then the guys began to move somewhere else

Advantages: Reliability, screen, autonomy, camera, many modes and settings in the camera, a good build.

Disadvantages: Not.

Comment: For more than 3 months I have been using the phone, I’m an active user - and I’m working and having fun, I talk a lot, I constantly use the Internet, the navigator, the bluetooth - the phone keeps the charge well - the battery keeps up during active use all day, it sits down only if I use the navigator for a long time . The screen is very happy - the colors are juicy and bright, the camera as for the phone is very good -
Many different modes, there are manual settings, which is important, I myself expose as I need. For fun cool mode square, you can combine 2 photos in 1. The build quality is good - there are no backlashes, no squeaks, rather light, despite the size in the hand, it is comfortable and quite thin, the corners and edges rounded. As for the impact resistance, I really kept falling, small chips on the corner remained, the main thing is that the screen is intact !!

Advantages: Screen, 2 SIM cards, dust and moisture protected, resistant to drops, Astro black color design, system speed, Always on display, sound, keeps battery power well, wide-angle camera, ergonomics, lies and feels very reliably, no rounded screen edges and 2.5D glass.

Disadvantages: There is no LED indicator, but there is AoD. No IR port for remote control. I don’t like the implementation of the management of two SIM cards, barely noticeable light from the bottom of the screen when AOD is working, in the normal mode this is not observed.

Comment: The last smart was LG G3 d855, compared with it, all 3 years and 2 months served me with reliability and reliability, no offense. And so the choice was between the LG G6, iPhone 7 and Sgs s8. The iPhone 7 didn’t like that there is no 2 sim, fast charging, the presence of 3.5 mm jack, system closeness (was in iPad mini use), and a small difference with 6s, even better places 6s, it will be more fair to compare with iPhone 8. Sgs 8 turned it over in his hands, then turned it over LG G6, and so the second in his hands is better and feels more reliable, Sgs 8 is beautiful, but in his hand it’s anxious to drop it. In short, the Sgs 8 is beautiful, pretentious and bold, and the LG G6 is reliable, serious and practical. Well, who likes what IPS or sAmoled is more like, I am personally more accustomed to the calm gamut of IPS colors. I carry a smartphone without a cover a little less than a month in the factory film from the box, the flight is excellent. In choosing a smart, such resources as w3bsit3-dns.com section marriage / repair and Yandex.Reviews helped. Smart purchased for 31k rubles from the official. For example, the gray iPhone 7 and Sgs 8 are 5k rubles more expensive, so the price did not play a special role here.

Advantages: Cameras, Design, moisture resistance, resistance to falls, 64 GB of internal memory.

Disadvantages: Not.

Comment: I needed a good camera and a robust case. I have a professional camera, but I have already learned from experience that even better when it is of decent quality in a phone, it’s not always convenient to carry a DSLR around your neck, and in some places it’s not safe. The quality of the photo, considering that this is still a phone, I have no complaints, behaves well in different modes, there are noises during night photography, but they are insignificant, I would rate the quality as 4 plus. There is a manual mode that is definitely good, as there are a lot of settings, white balance, photosensitivity, shutter speed, etc. Manual mode is still there when shooting a video, you can even write sound in HI-FI as it is. I tried the video with sound on football, it worked out great. There is an optical stabilization. I noticed that I often began to take photos on a wide format, it turned out that this is a cool feature. In general, the quality of the photo and camera modes, I am satisfied.What else I liked, is that the camera on the back panel does not bulge, and that the phone is of normal width, not thin, but not a brick. My old one was warming up as an iron cost a little more to open applications or start watching a movie, there is no such problem here. Awesome screen clarity, everything looks very realistic. I do not like the fact that everyone makes a combo slot, here I miss the second SIM card. I did not check it for reliability until I drowned it and did not throw it, but judging by how it looks and how everything is solidly worked in the case, and how it lies in my hand, I think that this factor is on a par with it.

Advantages: - Great camera.
- Beautiful sound.
- There is a radio
- There is support for two SIM cards or memory cards
- Quite a large amount of internal memory
- NFC is not trimmed
- Good built-in optimization software.

Disadvantages: - The battery life is not enough for my hardcore
- When recording video for more than 7 minutes, the brakes start, the output video is bad (I sin on my memory card, however)
- No root

Comment: I bought at the start of sales, with the clock, before that there were three Samsung in a row - Note, Note II and Note 3. Unfortunately, from Note 7 the guys were very disappointed, and before Note 8 my third did not live, and I decided that it would be It is interesting to buy something that is not Samsung. Honestly, the S-Pen is not enough for me. The camera is, perhaps, the best one in principle on the market - I don’t have a separate camera, so I’m filming it on the phone, and this item was one of the key when choosing. The sound with an advanced DAC is very pleasing - compared with other devices, including the same tracks in the same headphones. Here the “ski” gives you a hundred points ahead. I was pleased with the presence of built-in software for cleaning garbage and optimizing running processes - for the first time I don’t need to install anything. In numerous reviews promised that although the battery is not so voluminous, but it is enough for everything - not true. I remove the phone from charging at 8:00, somewhere by 15:00 it is already empty. Twice when recording long videos after seven minutes, the phone began to slow down strongly, after stopping recording, the video was obtained after the seventh minute, twitched, with a lagging sound. Perhaps due to the fact that I am writing to a memory card. Ruta for the Russian version of the G6 is not, perhaps it will not. I am a fan of the Xposed framework and fine-tune the system, but at the moment I have no such opportunity. Fingerprint scanner is completely satisfied. NFC in this model is not cut down - tickets for the Troika cards can be recorded through the application. The screen is good, it suits me - I can’t say anything more about it. Waterproof and shockproof properties are not tested - I carry the device in a case, the screen under the protective glass.

Advantages: Screen! Quality, dimensions and convenience of the case, the quality of photos and videos, wide-angle camera! speed, battery, android, support for micro sd, fast charging, protection against water and "anti-shock", a screen without 2.5D

Disadvantages: In vain they abandoned the infrared port and wireless charging.

Comment: I have been eyeing the flagships of 2017 for a long time and above all the G6, S8 and One + 5. I read / watched / studied a lot and as a result the price dropped to acceptable 35tr I decided to take the G6. Comparing with my Iphone 6S + I will note the following advantages:
The screen is very clear, very convenient size with a larger diagonal, the absence of 2.5D is an advantage for me because I use protective glasses. The rounded corners of the display look very harmonious, after them the usual angles are perceived ugly.
The speed seems to be 6S + fast, but the G6 feels much faster to use. The shell, applications, wifi, and everything else just "flies." The shell is comfortable, pleasant without friezes and glitches (yes, there are shoals on the iphon, for example, widget glitches). I understood for myself that you should not chase parrots in anttuta and 835 with snap.
Android (7.0) - after iOS, both hands are untied) finally, “human” multimedia and music without problems.
Autonomy-at the level of 6S + that I consider a good result, but the charging speed gives a huge advantage!
The camera is in 6S + everything seems to be quite good, but such G6 chips as a wide-angle second camera, fine settings, panorama 360 and others are impressive! The quality of photos and videos at the level of 6S + but looks more interesting on the screen of the G6 due to the display resolution. The sound when shooting a video is just super!
After the iPhone, I also like the thin frame of the case, support for memory cards, allways on display, moisture protection, increased protection against shocks, customization capabilities, double tap and much more ... Basic things like communication quality, GPS quality, speaker sound and headphones top notch. In short, LG has turned out a great flagship, definitely recommend to buy!

Advantages: Record panorama 360 with sound, Hi-Fi recording audio and video. 7th android, powerful processor, expandable memory. High-speed data processing, the UX6 interface, which was specifically created under the G6. Military quality standard, camera, Moisture-dustproof, processor cooling system.

Disadvantages: Need a more capacious battery.

Comment: In principle, the charge lasts a long time, but there is always something to strive for. The application opens instantly. An interesting interface divides the display into two parts and allows you to solve several problems simultaneously. It is also thanks to the 7th android that the multitasking problem is solved.

Advantages: A large screen in a compact package, in principle, as well as on the G2, why are you excited now? Everything works very fast. There is no strong heating. The fingerprint scanner works without comment.

Disadvantages: Not found.

Comment: Great machine for a not-so-great price. The situation is brightened up by a clock as a gift - presented to my son on the DR, he is happy as an elephant)))).

Advantages: 1. Screen. Beautiful! Vertically extended 18: 9 IPS matrix, more than 450ppi and about 90% of the front panel create a wah effect. After it, it just hurts to look at all the other screens of smartphones)) NOT rounded (read a uniform image at any angles). Brightness in the sun is enough.
2. Weight. Good, heavy, flagship weight. Not plastic, not soap dish.
3. IP68 protection. I didn’t check it sternly, but I dropped it in the dust, every day I was under the tap, and everything works fine. YouTube is full of reviews of what wild tests it passes.
4. Camera. Excellent camera, sharpness is good, not excessive. Autofocus, 3-axis optical stabilization. There is a manual mode with the backlight of the object in focus as on the mirrors! The wide-angle camera creates a steep, fish-eye effect, but sometimes lightens in the dark.
5. Sound HiFi DAC really gives an improvement in sound (volume, stage), but only in good headphones and player (Poweramp, for example). The speaker is loud, but nothing special. But the stereo audio is really high quality. Without noise, without interference, volume.
6. Radio. There is FM radio! This is cool and useful. There is a direct recording from the radio only songs and cut conversations!
7. Battery. 3300mAh / h + optimization of the system and the smartphone lives a day of normal use. With active use - 5-6 hours of the screen is stable.
8. Fingerprint scanner works quickly and accurately. Located in an extremely convenient place (as long as he got out of his pocket, the index finger has already unlocked everything).
9. Communication and 3g / 4g keeps excellent, the signal sees where my HTC m8 has not seen (cottage, basement). GPS, Glonass, Beidou sees accuracy ≈2 meters outside.

Disadvantages: 1. WiFi at a frequency of 5 GHz sometimes cuts the download speed, but at the same time the upload speed is at the maximum. This is not only I met (hello XDA, w3bsit3-dns.com), tk. This is a missing part of the program parts of the module. LG support assured that they will fix it soon.
2. Let's be honest, the front camera is weak. And for MP, and for detail. If your credo is a selfie, then take an iPhone. G6 is not for you. I hope this will be corrected, because HTC even at 4 MP did amazing shots.
Wide-angle is also washed in low light.
3. Headphone port. For me, minus that he is on top. It is more convenient to put the phone headfirst, and then the port at the top is accessible.
4. Speaker. Again, I understand that it is dust-and moisture-proof, but HTC EYE managed to make stereo speakers in front, along with the same protection.Minus is small, but I want it when making calls, and when watching a video, high-quality stereo sound, and not just loud.
5. Now while the price is justified by a gift in the form of smart hours. After the end of the action, its price should be at the level of 42-43 thousand.

Comment: Advantages (continued)
10. WiFi at a frequency of 2.4 GHz gives the speed which the router distributes, i.e. without loss. About 5GHz, see below.
11. Memory. ≈59 GB UFS 2.0 - finally, on the memory card now only a photo. All applications fit into the phone and work quickly.
12. The LG shell after HTC sense is probably the best. Optimization and look great, no brakes noticed. A lot of things can be customized, which is great. I liked the organization of settings for tabs.
13. Fast charging. It really charges in an hour and twenty from about 8% to 100%.
In general, my impression is that every day I like my LG G6 more and more. Every day I enjoy looking at the huge screen in a small convenient case and find some new features. They are just a bunch of useful. Not a "retinal scanner" in ... ahem, which doesn't work. Necessary things: always-on-screen, game optimization, knockOn, Hi-Fi sound ...
The first two drawbacks are more software, so they will be fixed. And with the rest I am quite ready to accept, because of the heap of advantages.
By the way, I advise black because The framework in some applications is then not visible.

Verdict: I highly recommend buying a smartphone

Advantages: -flat screen is a big and fat plus. I do not understand who introduced the 2.5d glass mode, I think it is not practical, and who needs a rounding off can attach a protective glass.
- catchy. Despite the glass heel, the shape of the case is designed in such a way that it lies securely in your hand, you are not afraid to drop it.
-shikarno looks in black, I would be at the place of LG marketing at all would not disgrace with silver color with grinding under a thermos.
- original appearance - it is difficult to confuse with something. And this is important because you take the flagship you want it to somehow differ from the gray mass of smartphones.
- the wide-angle camera was very pleased, the quality of the photo is average, but it really expands the creative possibilities.
- the screen is very pleasant: I would not call it completely frameless, but it obviously takes more space than on most smartphones; high resolution - pixels are not treatable; correctly displays colors, at the corners the picture does not spoil.
- autonomy for this screen size is great enough for a day.

Disadvantages: -the rear cameras take off medium, definitely worse than oneplus3, wait until they finish the firmware.
- It is better not to use the front camera.
- any gorilla glass is scratched, protection is needed. Ordered nillkin glass and bumper total cost up to 1000r and the problem is solved.

Comment: Not yet written a single review, but it was a shame for LG. Gs8 came out and in my opinion he unreasonably turned all his attention on himself. Recently, oneplus 3 was used, but I wanted to try something new. He chose between S8, mi6, oneplus 3t.
-mi6 was dropped, because knowing xiaomi, for another half a year they will release a global version of the firmware and finish it, moreover they were led to the tricks of the ogryzchnik and the minijack were removed.
-oneplus 3t is the perfect phone for your money, but I wanted a more individual design.
-Samsung s8 the victim of marketers and designers after the sea of ​​advertising you want to hold it and they want to have, but if you think about it, then this smartphone is not for every day. The rounded screen gives glare around the edges and it is impossible to find a normally-fitting protective glass on it, official book covers are very expensive and not convenient. The stupid, interfering voice assistant button that cannot be reassigned. Slippery due to narrow licked ends. Departed for the sake of design a fingerprint scanner.
