    As a G6 owner, I'm not gonna upgrade, mine will stick around for at least another year, it works perfectly still
    Edit: if anyone is wondering yes it finally got Oreo,just a few days ago and yes the battery life has improved although not by very much. still, not acceptable that it took this long for them to push it out. (Mine is unlocked)

      Hey, are u satisfied with your phone's battery life? especially stand by time? Also does the camera's both back and front suffice your needs ? :)

    • @davidmorling1264
      @davidmorling1264 6 років тому +13

      Artūras Malcevas well, the battery is average I guess, it usually lasts around a day but I have the habit to not charge the phone regularly and it varies a lot how much I use it every day. The stand by time is alright, I always use it with the always on display turned off, however I've noticed that Bluetooth is draining battery like I've never seen before idk what it is. As for the camera I think it's really good but it does lack in low light, with the noise in particular being way more than I think it should. As they mentioned in this video the front camera isn't honestly good at all, but I hardly ever use it so that's not a problem for me. Overall I think it's a really good phone

      I am also a g6 user, and I have the 64gb H870DS version. I am not happy with my phone at all, and this is coming from an avid LG person. I have had the G2(which I think for the time was one of the best phones for the price), the G3(which was horrible with bugs and crashes and software issues). I skipped the G4 and that horrible thing known as the G5. I have had my G6 since August last year and already I am barely able to get through a full day if I decid to watch some youtube as well as some medium browsing on my phone. The camera as you say is HORRIBLE in low light, I mean, disappointment to say the least. I dislike LG skin, so Im using Nova Launcher. Also, if I dont restart my phone at least twice a week, its an issue. So overall, I am very dissapointed and regret my purchase. The main reason for me not going Samsung at the time of my purchase, is I absolutely HATE Touchwiz, or whatever the new name they have called it. The decrease in battery size, as well as a bigger screen in the G7 is like LG is taking a step backwards. As a result, I will be waiting to see what LG does with the V40, but to be frakn, I am hoping that Google comes out with something special in terms of design for their new Pixel. if so, I will pony up the money and get one.

      Just cause they make a new model every year doesn't mean you need to upgrade every year. That's like thinking I need to upgrade my car every year.

    I've always always double tapped the screen to wake it and to lock it. I prefer avoiding the use of physical buttons, that's why I chose an LG phone. Moving the power button was not necessary in my opinion.

    • @panathatube
      @panathatube 6 років тому

      When you are hiding the notch you defeat the purpose of buying a notched phone in the first place! Plus, this is no OLED screen which mean you can't really hide the notch because there are no real deep blacks in an LCD screen. Plus, by hiding the notch you are actually covering even more of the screen real estate because this is no hardware bezel. Plus there's a chin which, again, defeats the purpose of the notch in the first place.

  • @christophers.mosson6266
    @christophers.mosson6266 6 років тому +14

    One thing glanced over is on the G7 is the new technology of LCD screens where this is apparently 30% more power efficient. This is conjunction with the battery apparently justifies the battery size.

  • @ronniesparidice
    @ronniesparidice 6 років тому +39

    That's dumb. Put the power button on the side so you don't have to pick it up?? They have been having the double tap to wake for years!' Just an excuse to be more like everyone else.

    • @johnandersen2903
      @johnandersen2903 6 років тому +4

      I have a G6, paid AU$230 for a good used one, performs perfectly still, just as well as a up to date flagship, or such a small difference you won't notice, an amazing camera with an awesome wide angle lens, it is the most underrated phone of 2017

      i got one like a week ago, it's still a good phone (300 EUR new) battery is good if you're using it but it discharge a bit too fast in standby imo (i use the always on display but also keep the phone in power saving mode). photos are good as long there's light: in the dark... it's kinda bad. i don'use the selfie camera but for what i've seen if you take a lot of selfie you might wanna get a different phone

    • @nigrowstyla
      @nigrowstyla 6 років тому +4

      shawn cypret yea, im using the V20 and overall its a better phone than the G4, but the camera on the G4 is much better. At least the V20 can offer a wide angle lense

  • @mrcjstudio
    @mrcjstudio 6 років тому +7

    I am somewhat disappointed in this update. To increase the screen size and decrease the battery for the sake of the so called "boombox" experience is counterproductive. As an LG owner, I know that if Nougat(which I am still on with my LG G6) is not optimized for it, and drains the battery, no one can tell me that Oreo is going to be any better for a smaller battery. Over the years, LG skin has never been to my liking either. Therefore, I dont think this phone will be worth the cost when it comes out, or an upgrade for me. I am waiting to see what LG does with the V40, because the v30thinQ is definitely not in the cards.

    Jumping from 821 to 845 is a massive upgrade. I have used OnePlus 5. OP5 is way faster than my Google Pixel, HTC 10 & V20. Also it remain cooler than all this phone while doing intensive task. 820 & 821 phone do have heating problem & currently with latest software heating has been intensified.

    Lg g6 is still more than capable of handling modern apps and games. I am a heavy user and have tons of apps installed and it still chugs along with no issues. I ported the Google hdr+ camera app that brings the portrait functionality to the G6, which under natural lighting gives really good and crisp images. The hdr+ images are also very detailed and clear. Follow the g6 thread on xda for the apps. I'm pretty sure that within a few weeks the g7 camera app will be ported for the g6 bringing in all those AI features. The only gripe that I have with the phone is that it's still on android 7.0. Keeping my fingers crossed that LG will update it to oreo by the end of June, as some reports suggest.

      @integrazimmy 6 років тому +5

      The SD 845 is at least 20% more efficient than the SD835, which itself is 40% more efficient than the SD821 in the LG G6. Paired up with the 30% more efficient LCD on the G7, I would say all things being equal, we should see a boost in battery life of around 60% on the processor side + 30% on the screen = 45% more efficient??? Maybe??? Someone here can come and do better math as this is lamen's math, lol! So although I also wish they would've left the battery at 3,300mAh maybe they had to in order to make that resonance chamber. But still, the current 3,000mAh battery is only 9% smaller. Leaving a real world difference of 37% better battery efficiency due to lower power consumption??? Wow, if this isn't weird math! LOL!!!

    Hey Josh,,, Yeah, change s aren't going to be too drastic obviously, because they want to save something for the 8, right. LG has so much they could do to give a more all around improvements,,say for instance front facing stereo speakers? But no, they'd rather do a phone that has to reverb off something else? I'm sure it's a nice new device but as usual as with the battery,,they take some,to give some. But I'm sure it'll cost as much or more.. what are we looking at, around 900,?

Really cool. I may upgrade to the G7 but I have 10 months left on the G6. I wish LG would provide more timely software updates.

      If it ain't broke don't fix it. Nougat, Oreo, P, Q, R, S, T whatever. The V20 is the most powerful phone that has a removable battery. Only reason I got it since I saw all the manufactures were following Apple and making future paperweights with no removable battery. The Oreo update for the V20 is coming out this month (May 2018) but I'm not sure I would even want to upgrade unless I get some kind of battery improvement or more customization of the second screen etc. Apart from that, my phone works. Does everything I need from it.

    I honestly think a V30 is a better upgrade from a LG G6 I like my LG G6 a lot and the G7 doesn't seem like a to big of an upgrade yet and specially since u can find dirt cheap LG G6 online got two like new with a bunch of extras unlocked but where Sprint phones for 130 each. And u normally find them around 200 new.

    I just got the S9+ a couple weeks ago and I'm starting to believe I made a mistake by getting it. The G7 is shaping up to be a really good alternative to the most current Galaxy line simply because they aren't forcing you to use their in-house Assistant like Samsung is.

    Correction: you mentioned lg had a 5MP camera in their last two iterations. If you are reffering to lg g5 and lg g6 then ican assure you i have both g5 and g6 and the g5s front facing camera is 8MP and its awesome and for some reason they messed it up in the lg g6 by going down to a measly 5 MP and lousy night time shots. My lg.g6 night time shots look worse than 1MP cameras of 2005

      I think their strategy is spot on. It makes sense to not directly compete with Samgung Galaxy phones and just wait until after the buzz is gone. Hitting the shelves of providers 3-4 months later gives buyers a feel for the "Latest and Greatest", which should translate into more sales. Gooo LG!

    • @m3ntalx09
      @m3ntalx09 6 років тому

      integrazimmy to add on to what you said, Samsung has priority getting the SD chips in their phones first from Qualcomm. This prevents other manufacturers from releasing their phones early. And no.. Not go LG. I hate that notch with a passion.

    • @kevinv.5961
      @kevinv.5961 6 років тому +2

      Sep2X_7 What about battery life, a wide angle camera that is no longer a wide angle camera, also the cheap camera sensor and that stupid notch plus the chin.

    • @sep2x_7
      @sep2x_7 6 років тому

      Kevin V. It may be a loss in that perspective I guess but if you look at it in another perspective, the latest processor and android os will better improve the power efficiency of the phone; the reduced wide angle further eliminates the barrel distortion and the notch and chin helps with hand ergonomics especially on landscape mode.

    • @sep2x_7
      @sep2x_7 6 років тому

      The areas I'd only take points away from the G7 would probably the added height and screen size and also the non-programmable Google Assistant button plus the new power button. I'd would prefer size of the G6 and only increasing the screen size further to ~5.8 -5.9". Perhaps the increase was made with the boombox audio enhancements in mind. The power button/fingerprint sensor of the G6 was so unique from the rest of the market plus the double tap homescreen/notification bar was so innovative that it's a waste adding a separate power key on the right side. The Google Assistant button is functional and would be even more if it's not just restricted to its main function.
