But is it enough to make you choose it over S8 ? and i need to buy right now.. i cant figure out which to buy under Verizon... Leaning s8plus but worried about the damn thing slowing up six months or a year from now. My Droid Turbo has had it... can't wait any longer..
I had an LG before and liked it, but there were things on it that eventually became annoying. Does it have a manual option on the camera when taking pictures and videos? My LG G2 didn't when taking videos. Does it have a knock-knock unlock feature too? It's where you just tap on the screen twice to turn it on and off. And is the glass on the back slippery?
Bought it yesterday at US Cellular...great deal. Have been watching UA-cam vids, checking social media, etc. for a while and still holding in the 74% battery range over 8 hours. Love it. Using Nova Prime as my launcher.
Apple, LG and Samsung has nailed their flagship phones for their customers. Each phone has their pros and cons and we gotta stop comparing each phone like jacka****. 😀 Congrats to LG for producing this topnotch smartphone! Cheers!
I feel like any company that releases a new phone should be their best yet. G6 still hasn't sold me yet. I do love the design of it though. But I keep watching reviews everyday to convince myself.
I'm using a lg g6+ to comment now in 2024. I think this may be the best phone ever made. The ergonomics are so perfect and the size is unmatched as far as not too big and not too small. Also I just got a Google pixel 7 and I think the displays are very comparable. Amazing little phone. If there was some way to upgrade the processor in it I would use it as my daily driver even now. Best phone ever made.
Got this second hand in Korean version with 64gb and Hi Fi dac. Damn i'm loving it! Lg V10 owner but I wanna upgrade. I still have the G2 that works perfectly. I had the G4/G5 and V20 for few days aswell but there's something with the G6 that I really love. The Design and it's ergonomic. I totally agree with the title of thid video. Hands down!
I bought this yesterday to replace my beloved Nexus 6. Moved all my apps, set up my Nova Launcher Prime, wallpapers, etc., set up all the choices. Loving it today, size good (I do miss the bigger screen some though while watching UA-cam today), but very smooth, no lag. Good trade off.
hi, you mentioned that you have to click the home/power button to unlock the phone. no option to just lay your finger to unlock, just like with the pixel and the rest? pressing it might not be too ergonomic
zollotech thank you, that is good to know. thinking getting this or the s8 plus to replace my mate 9 :) but im worried both will have worse speakers compared with the mate 9.
Its an awesome device. I havent even seen one yet but its easy to tell. The single speaker is a letdown and its kind of hard to trust LG when bootloop issues have been plaguing all of their flagships since the G3.
First phone stopped vibrating within 2 months. Replacement phone lasted 2 days and the camera glass broke in my pocket with a case and raised lip protecting the camera. Worst phone I've owned and I owned the LG g2 which is still working just fine.
nice video i got one, the g6 from s7edge and, i like most all of it.. i would not of gotten the s8 due to edge screen, hated the edge screen..false touches.. so when LG made this and announced..yeah it looked good.. here is the deal.. Verizon and most other carriers turn in phone, $200 bonus google home assistant..free and if you sign up to verizon new customer, get a LG tv, what? did i see that.. so for $475 i got a phone (btw, i was an original unlimited data plan from years back verizon..I thought that was so worth keeping, till they raised it $20 few months back, I had nfl for $5, and if I tethered it would cost...new plan is unlimited, free nfl and I can tether to like 5 devices, but while tether if I go over so much I will be throttled. but here is the catch, its cheaper then the original plan i so kept due to unlimited..the new verizon plan is cheaper..nfl free, and how I have better plan, and phone installment payment plan..and cheaper..) win win $475, for this phone, I win..
Tachyon Particle and it doesn't work on my device. Because if this is quick its bullshit. I gave my moto z force back for call quality issues today and that's quick charge
+Xavier A they have nothing to do with each other. A DAC is the audio chip and the wireless charging is a coil in the back that connects to the power input. It has both.
LG should've put this phone on the market for 600 or below. That's it. Not worth 720.00 at all. In order to compete with Samsung and Apple they must be more price friendly. To be able to get the S8 for only 30 more bucks is a no brainer. Consumers don't buy LGS as it is
Jarrod Carlton finger print scanner is useless, LG's processor is not even a year old calm down, dual camera and a flat screen. s8 is a gimmick, the no flat screen is stupid in my opinion, I won't buy them anymore for that reason and I'm sure I'm not the only one. I had the S4, Note 4 and the S7. I'm not a Samsung hater but you gotta give me a break with comments like *it's a no brainier to buy s8* cuz it has a new processor, I find that laughable.
Jarrod Carlton the 720 figure is ATT and verizon's price. Lg isnt the dumb one. The carriers are. You can get it for a lot less on tmobile. And on sprint you can start getting this for like 500 dollars with a free TV.
What do you think of the LG G6?
But is it enough to make you choose it over S8 ? and i need to buy right now.. i cant figure out which to buy under Verizon... Leaning s8plus but worried about the damn thing slowing up six months or a year from now. My Droid Turbo has had it... can't wait any longer..
+tigerbaitcom I personally choose the google pixel over all since it's always updated
zollotech too ugly, no waterproofing. I was hoping my phone could last until pixel 2 but not happening
S8 beats it
I had an LG before and liked it, but there were things on it that eventually became annoying.
Does it have a manual option on the camera when taking pictures and videos?
My LG G2 didn't when taking videos.
Does it have a knock-knock unlock feature too? It's where you just tap on the screen twice to turn it on and off.
And is the glass on the back slippery?

simple but you reviewed this phone thoroughly. also saw the bible app which made me happy. now a subscriber!

as always gr8 reviews
I feel like any company that releases a new phone should be their best yet. G6 still hasn't sold me yet. I do love the design of it though. But I keep watching reviews everyday to convince myself.
Great video aaron !!!!
Nice video, I really enjoyed the video! Keep up the good work!
As always, awesome videos!

Another good video - I have a Nexus 6, would this be a good replacement?
+Ron Ardron yes and no. As long as you don't mind not getting updates like the nexus does then it's a great choice.
Pixel XL would be a good update for you.
I bought this yesterday to replace my beloved Nexus 6. Moved all my apps, set up my Nova Launcher Prime, wallpapers, etc., set up all the choices. Loving it today, size good (I do miss the bigger screen some though while watching UA-cam today), but very smooth, no lag. Good trade off.
Also the wide angle on the front camera is cool.
Love your videos I love this phone
hi, you mentioned that you have to click the home/power button to unlock the phone. no option to just lay your finger to unlock, just like with the pixel and the rest? pressing it might not be too ergonomic
+cezzarmicu you don't have to click it. It will wake up and unlock with just a touch.
zollotech thank you, that is good to know. thinking getting this or the s8 plus to replace my mate 9 :) but im worried both will have worse speakers compared with the mate 9.
+cezzarmicu the speaker isn't great. Hard to say on the Galaxy s8 as I haven't used one yet.
zollotech thank you. they both loom gorgeous though :) the mate 9 looks bland to be honest
You said screen on time is roughly 3~4 hrs? With how much % left? That's kibbles n bits compared to the iPhone 7 Plus usage time.
+Rob S 20% or less.
Wallpaper link doesn't working😩
+Shaik Khan android only

set your launcher to 18：9 ratio in settings so that your navigation bar become transparent.
nice video
i got one, the g6 from s7edge and, i like most all of it..

here is the deal..
Verizon and most other carriers

so
for $475 i got a phone
(btw, i was an original unlimited data plan from years back verizon..I thought that was so worth keeping, till they raised it $20 few months back, I had nfl for $5, and if I tethered it would cost...new plan is unlimited, free nfl and I can tether to like 5 devices, but while tether if I go over so much I will be throttled. but here is the catch, its cheaper then the original plan i so kept due to unlimited..the new verizon plan is cheaper..nfl free, and how I have better plan, and phone installment payment plan..and cheaper..)

This ll b my first LG phone after using apple,sony,htc,microsoft for over a decade..n i'm a member of 'i hate sammy' club..
Sandipan Samanta Ironically, your last name is...
Other people have been getting about 140000. Why have you gotten that?
Not sure but I ran it a couple times.
SDav21 yea I seen 149000
zollotech Okay. Just did it on my G5 and got 138669 which is awesome. Could there be an app taking up resources.
It has Quick charge 3.0
It seems amoled.... The first mobile with IPS screnn that i'll buy
Quick Charge 3.0
Tachyon Particle and it doesn't work on my device. Because if this is quick its bullshit. I gave my moto z force back for call quality issues today and that's quick charge
i realy love you not just for your videos . but because you have holy bible app in your mobile phone . your brother from iraq
The phone can't have wireless charging and DAC audio.. its either one or the other.
+Xavier A they have nothing to do with each other. A DAC is the audio chip and the wireless charging is a coil in the back that connects to the power input. It has both.
zollotech he's saying its region specific. Korea gets dac while USA version gets wireless charging
The price is to much!!
LG should've put this phone on the market for 600 or below. That's it. Not worth 720.00 at all. In order to compete with Samsung and Apple they must be more price friendly. To be able to get the S8 for only 30 more bucks is a no brainer. Consumers don't buy LGS as it is
Jarrod Carlton except no one wants trash Samsung which is gonna get slow as fuck within the year. LG and Google are years ahead of Samsung.
Years ahead with a processor from last year.. makes sense
Jarrod Carlton finger print scanner is useless, LG's processor is not even a year old calm down, dual camera and a flat screen. s8 is a gimmick, the no flat screen is stupid in my opinion, I won't buy them anymore for that reason and I'm sure I'm not the only one. I had the S4, Note 4 and the S7. I'm not a Samsung hater but you gotta give me a break with comments like *it's a no brainier to buy s8* cuz it has a new processor, I find that laughable.

Jarrod Carlton this phone does not cost 720. you can get it right now from us cellular I think for 550
