LG G6 Reviews

Evaluation 4
Advantages: 1. Excellent gabbarits. With a screen of 5.7 "(18: 9), the dimensions are the same as with a screen of 5.2" (16: 9).
2. Good body materials, metal and gorilla glass (3,4,5).
3. A harmonious balanced design, and what is important is the original.
4. The ips display is good, not oled of course, but for my money, but with quad hd resolution, it is excellent. I consider it a big plus that it is flat, without edge rounding. It is easy to glue the glass and there are no false positives due to the palm touching the edges.
5. Hi-Fi 32bit DAC is very good. I do not know whose production, but shakes any headphones. The stock volume is already enough for 60%. The sound detail is excellent. It works on all audio and video players with headphones connected on the wire.
6. Pts main cameras are good. The wide-angle camera is very useful, much larger than the x2 zoom. There is a professional mode with manual settings and shooting in raw.
7. The dacteloscopic sensor, which is also the power button, works practically perfectly. Located intuitively convenient.
7. USB-C, NFC, hybrid micro sd slot.
Disadvantages: 1. The biggest and main drawback is the protective glass of the main chambers. I do not put the phone along with keys and other hardware, but from the first days of use the glass is covered with small scratches. After a couple of months, it is almost impossible to photograph, it is creepy. The problem was solved by a polisher for car headlights, GOI # 1 and # 2 paste is still suitable.After polishing it was clear that some special protective layer had been worn off. In general, I think this is a serious jamb.
2. Constantly during a conversation, the interlocutors complain that they hear me badly, intermittently, as if they had a bad connection. Although the level of the network is maximum and I can hear them perfectly.
2. The front camera (for selfie) quality is below average, the level of phones for $ 100. But since I use it only for video communication - I am the norm.
4. In 3D games, the phone often heats up and slows down. Although 821 dragon and 4GB of operatives should suffice. Apparently the optimization is lame.
5. From the little things. The volume buttons on the left - the right would be more convenient. Bottom access from the screen is greater than the top - slight asymmetry.
Comment: In general, for 28tr - an excellent phone. I have a LG phone for the first time and I am not disappointed. It is clear from the OS shell that they worked in detail and meticulously, many trifles were taken into account, which I had never met before, there is a concern for the user. I hope the developers will do the work on the bugs and the G7 will fix everything, well, I really hope that they don’t get the “mono-brow” from the iphone X, otherwise the G8 will have to wait)

Evaluation 5
Advantages: Camera, display quality, SOUND, appearance. The fingerprint scanner is VERY NICE! AND THAT, AS HE WRITES SOUND! THIS IS SOMETHING UNREAL! The same Samsung and iPhone not standing next to! In general, all))
Disadvantages: 1.) Well ... Here I would take the front camera ... I use two smartphones at once (LG G4 H818 and LG G6 H870DS) I’ll say for sure that in G4 it is much better. But oh well ...

2.) Scratches ... Very, well, straight sooo quickly scratched. I treat the phones very carefully, always in carrying cases. And from this "every speck of dust blown away" And he is covered in micro scratches. Especially on the camera and on the scanner and near it. But oh well, I will not underestimate the assessment.
Comment: First impressions were very positive about him. Why, and still!) The smartphone is super! Never hung and blunted! Dual camera is just great! Shirik makes ooooochen cool pictures without the effect of "fish eye" like many. Well, what is there to describe, the phone is super, I advise everyone! The only thing that upset me was that the buttons were removed from the back (So I got used to them from the moment the G3 itself came out (Took for 52. It’s worth the money! Take it, you won’t regret it!

Evaluation 5
Advantages: The fingerprint recognizes quickly.
The photos do, for my taste (and I'm unpretentious here), worthy.
Quick charge function, from 20% to 100% in about an hour.
The ability to play and record hi-fi audio. Compared to sony z1, the sound is really better, with headphones for sure.
Relatively small size, but at the same time a fairly large screen (almost no frame)
The second camera is wide-angle, useful for shooting landscapes.
Holds a good charge.
The Lg Mobile Switch app, which allows you to transfer all data from your old phone to a new one in a couple of touches.
Disadvantages: I did not like the standard application of the clock, I replaced it with an analog from Google
Comment: There is no LED indicator, instead, the Always On Display function, which really has almost no effect on the battery discharge rate.
In my opinion, worth the money.

Evaluation 5
Advantages: Functional firmware LG. Great sound. 3G / 4G works on both SIM slots (on the previous device, support was only on one slot).
Disadvantages: Combined SIM + SD slot, which forces you to take a version with more memory. Lack of LED-indicator, which is very useful when charging. Instead, they offer us "Always on display", which is more expensive in terms of power consumption.
Comment: Bought to replace the G3. Immediately transferred from the old all the data. Applications work very fast, the test video in antutu goes without lags. Performance pleased as an elephant.
Like the sound. The quality is much better than the previous model. An interesting wide-angle camera - will be very useful if there is no way to go away to fit the whole picture.The camera interface became a bit worse - the ability to create a photo by touching any part of the screen went into the background (you need to go into the camera settings and select the "hide interface" option).

Evaluation 5
Advantages: - Camera (this is a bomb !!!)
- Screen
- Sound in headphones
- Dimensions
- Protection against water and shock
- Price
Disadvantages: - Front camera with poor lighting
- Autonomy (uncritically, but felt)
- Snap 821
Comment: Choose between Oneplus 5t and LG G6. Chose LG and did not regret. More details:
About the pros:
- The camera - did not understand before why they put a wide-angle one, but when I tested it, I realized how cool it is. For shooting photos, for video, just a bomb. If you need bokeh (background defocus), then just put Google Cam HDR + (set as a normal application, root-rights are not needed) and that's it - an elegant bokeh is provided. The only minus of the camera - at a very, very close approximation, it can be seen that artificially makes the details sharper. But this is not critical, if annoying, then hdr + does not. (look for hdr + settings on reddit)
- The screen - those who write that in Youtube the picture does not stretch to the full screen - they lie. Just stretch with two fingers and that's it. The screen is super, albeit IPS
- The sound is gorgeous, but the bass is a bit lacking. If you need bass, set the equalizer
- Dimensions - very compact, despite the hefty screen.
- About moisture-shock protection everything is so clear
- Price - 29t.r. This is a good price for this phone.
About cons:
- If you need a selfie-background - then we pass by. Good shoots only in good light. With a bad shoots as a middling for $ 200.
- Autonomy - not enough for a day, but I use the phone a lot. Constant vibration, constantly turn on the screen, 2-3 hours on the road video / games / music. There would be a 4000 battery, it would be cool. But the advantages that there is completely overlap this minus.
- The processor. The phone is smart, but does not fly like 5t or mi6. But the question is - do you need it? You do not switch in applications as in these tests for speed.
Bottom line: if you are a geek, then take it unequivocally. Very cool. And be sure to put hdr + (right in the search, write "lg g6 settings hdr +"). Yes, it is not new, but externally 5t and others look better, but this phone is a workhorse in every sense, which will please you for more than one day, because it has everything you need.

Advantages: Screen quality
The quality of the source of the photographs
Wide angle camera
Availability of DAC
Glass without rounding (the ability to stick a normal protective glass)
OS
Price
Fingerprint scanner on the back
Disadvantages: Front camera mediocre
The decision to use the back panel of glass (this is from many manufacturers)
Comment: I will clarify the situation adequately. For this price, we have the killer of all other smartphones, if you are not an ardent fanatic and supporter of Samsung or Apple, you will sooner agree, and you will not wave your arms and legs.
1. The screen is perfect, the color rendition is simply excellent, as well as the fact that it is even and not beveled, as it is possible to glue the protective glass, which is completely glued over the entire area of ​​the phone. Where the beveled edges of the glass are glued only on the edges themselves, or only along the perimeter with a thin strip of glue, they have passed! falls off or dust gets under it) Accordingly, the protection of the front screen increases due to the absence of bevels, as well as stickers of high-grade glass.
2. Photos, if you look at reviews from professional photographers, then g6 is better in terms of color rendering parameters, less loss if you look at histography and so on. The presence of a wide-angle lens decides, even if there are some distortions in it, but in the summer, in the afternoon, it just makes awesome photos. Nowhere else does anyone use the Wide-angle camera.
3. DAC if you have good ears, the sound is really better than other competitors in the market. On ordinary cheap headphones do not even think to compare the difference. It is better to take headphones for 50 ohms to open the DAC.
4. OS no matter what anyone says, what it slows down is all lies. For half a year of use, well, there were no brakes.It is also one of the most user-friendly and customizable operating systems. Everything is configured literally. Until you understand, you will not understand.
5. Price, all these bonuses for a small price today, I do not consider it adequate to pay from 50 to 100 thousand per phone, which is 10-15% better percent. I did not wait for the V30 and bought the G6.
6. Battery Adequate, calmly withstands the whole day. G3 has long been dying at 3 o'clock display. Here, G6 works for me at 5 hours of display sometimes 6, here, with everything turned on, what is possible, atoms and with navigation.
7 Fingerprint scanner is very convenient on the back.

Evaluation 5
Advantages: Screen, speed, convenient shell, protection against water and falling
Disadvantages: Autonomy for C grade with +, but not critical, slippery, you need a bumper, or a cover.
Comment: I had xiaomi (different), Vernee, Samsung - the last S7. Now LG G6. Without exaggeration, this is the best machine of all that were. No glitches (like in S7 after a month of use), the shell is comfortable, you can go to the classic view, you can all the applications on the tables, everything is configured. The settings are adequate, understandable, nothing needs to be looked for, there is a convenient search by settings. The camera is excellent, and photos and videos at the Samsung S 7, 8 level. The sound is good, a dedicated audio chip. Full protection against water, impact resistance. The signal reception level is better than that of the Samsung (my S7 is at work, there is a closed room from all sides, I didn’t catch it, this is no problem - both sims). The only drawback is autonomy, but it is still better than the S7. Very underrated phone. I recommend everyone to take, you will not regret
