In 2022 I'm still getting 6hrs on screen time. I have newer phones too V40 and V60. The V35 is still a great phone now! Nothing runs poorly. Screen still gorgeous. Everything runs as well and looks like it did when brand new in 2020. My only complaint is the speaker is anemic. Weaker than my even older LG G6. Plug in headphones and you're good however. Killer sound from Quad Dac. I Also love the lightness and size of this phone. Compact compared to the others I have. For people that don't need the latest can still get great use of V35 even in 2022. I'm running android 9 but I think you can get A10 if you're in the US. I'm in Canada so AT&T phones can only be updated in the US.
I really wish LG would price their phones more competitively. As all-around phones, I think their phones can compete with any flagship out there. Even offering things like a Hi-Fi Dac and a wide-angle lenses others usually don't.
@@hotheadedjoelhaha they're all good Samsung LG. I'll make a devices Apple I don't care for. Too much spyware in apples. But LG and Samsung are really good devices can't go wrong. Own them both have them both no problems with any of them.
@@Demonslayer20111 Heaviest phone I've ever used was made of plastic. Note 3. Almost 170 grams. Plastic, plastic and more plastic. The V35 is made of glass and aluminum, has a larger display, and is less in weight by 10 grams. Bias for less weight = plastic is unfounded.
Hold on a second do you seriously not know that especially in phones that less dense is less quality and less expensive it's like saying which is more premium titanium or plastic? Diamonds or pearls? The more dense pretty much anything out is determines it's value because more dense means more of it and with phones more dense means more durable and better looking. I do not understand your logic?
It's pretty creative for LG to recycle the v30's is lovely design. By giving it an incremental upgrade with this v35 in a way I feel like it's them saying sorry for the notch on the G7. And the lack of RAM on the v30 compared to it's competition
Late comments from me but got this on eBay for $165.00 in open box condition. Works great no issues and phone in great shape. Better than any mid-range phone. 6 gb ram, 845 SD . Wow. Phone flys. Also full Android Pie. Updates and security also.
I have the v20 as well and I'm not to pleased with it. The first v20 I had was great for a while but eventually the screen started bleeding through so I sent it in and AT&T sent me back a refurbished v20 4 times I've had trouble with each one AT&T would not send a new one only refurbished
The display started ghosting so bad I had to ditch my principle of not buying a phone with a sealed battery. I got the LG V30+ because that was the only alternative to me to the LG V20. The battery life is twice that of the V20 due to the more efficient processor and OLED display. The LCD display is way crisper but I couldn't take the ghosting. The V20 is also louder in speaker and DAC and has better camera in low light. I still have my V20 for a backup phone because it's still an amazing device.
Yeah, the V35 is a pretty minor upgrade from the V30. Basically just the upgraded processor and the front facing camera upgrade. Other than that they are the same phone.
Will never understand why people are so upset about "the notch". What's the big deal? I wish that was the biggest thing I had in my life to be upset about...
@@ExSkyCyclePilot The notch is the most stupid thing was created and the most stupid thing is that ll the companies are bringing the notch to their phones, hopefully they forget about it in the 2019
Yeah, LG has sort have brought it upon themselves a bit, but this is definitely a real solid device that I think most people won't even consider. That $900 price tag on AT&T is just crazy, but for $650 it's a much better sell.
At $900 a pop, I doubt AT&T is selling very many. I'm pretty sure on Prime Day, Amazon was selling it for $599, a good price. LG hasn't hit a home run in the last three years. They produce excellent phones that have no "killer or must-have" feature and end up as the wallflower model ..."she wasn't a hottie but had a good personality". Poor LG!
I found this phone after plugging my requirements into GSMARENA. Just what I needed. Big battery; powerful CPU; big RAM; big display but shorter and wider form factor (see Samsung S4); new tech. Don't like bloatware and haven't considered LG for years, but till can't see why this phone isn't get as much love.
Cricket has it now for $150 with port in. It's definitely worth $150 in 2019 but not $900 in 2018. I would totally pick this up in 2019 . Still a flagship in 2020
Hey Donavon, I'm considering the v35 or the pixel 2 or 2xl. The reason is the speakers. The LG looks great as for specs, but the boom speaker is an issue. I love the stereo speakers of the pixel but I have heard so much about the boom effect, but clarity is big to me and the through the case, on the LG sounds like it would be less clear. What was your opinion between the two? Thanks Donavon.
Hi! Just something to point out.. you said that you would give samples of a couple of the different camera modes, but then you started talking about the portrait mode and then went over to a camera quality comparison with some other flagship phones. So please include it next time in general, but especially if you say that you are going to do it in the vid itself. Cheers!
@@mattc.8887 It became extremely slow/laggy ...would heat up all the time, camera kept crashing or if I took a picture, it wouldn't show in my gallery. But after I updated to Android O it started working right again
Why being it lighter makes it feel cheap? Where does that relation come from? Honest question. It's the second reviewer I heard saying the same this week. (different devices).
The extra weight just gives it a feeling like it is more solidly built. Nothing against the V35 ThinQ, I honestly really liked the phone, it just doesn’t feel like a flagship phone typically does it terms of the build.
I totally agree! I've heard other reviewers say the same thing about other phones and it's totally ridiculous. ATTENTION REVIEWERS, WE WANT LIGHT PHONES, NOT HEAVY ONES!
To me, something feels solid if it doesn't bend or cracks when I squeeze it. I feel light weight as perk, not a problem. For example, I would spend twice the price on a carbon fiber tripod (for my camera) because it's solid and lightweight. Same thing would apply to laptops, I hear reviewers praising Apple for the MacBook air because it's light. Nobody says it feels cheap, so why the double standard when it comes to phones?
I just read this on Android Authority's website for their LG V40 review, this is not a joke: "LG prides itself on keeping its phones extremely lightweight, and the V40 continues this trend. I like denser, heftier phones - they give me the sense I’m actually getting value for my money - but I can appreciate the engineering that went into making the phone so light. Sure, this is extremely subjective, but this is a review, after all. I like my phones heavy." "I LIKE MY PHONES HEAVY". I'm speechless.
Which case do you have on the v35 here? Just picked up a used v35 on swappa and looking for cases...thanks. Your vid helped me decide, keep up the good work!
I'm an AT&T customer I bought mine on eBay for $219 tax included it's used it still works really good though I never get it through AT&T at that price too much money

Hey Will, thanks for watching. I've been a bit quiet on my channel lately because my wife and I just had our 4th child on the 6th, so we've been pretty busy with the baby lately.
Hmm. Even the v30 is still a good deal. Rocking a 6s rn not upgrading till next summer. It’s either the note 9 or 2018 iPhones by then with reduced prices.
You still got the V35? I just got an S10+ four days ago and it sounds great, but I've been missing the ESS Sabre32 sound since my V10 died two years ago. I'm thinking of getting a V35 and handing down my sister the S10+, since she wants one.
You buy at swappa yet to take a loan out basically it's so expensive if I'm going to pay those prices I might as well buy it directly from the manufacturer brand new out right.
LG V series phone is designed more for headphone cable users, it has quad hd sound through that. External speakers nothing special. IF you don't care about head set wires, then LG G series have the better speaker sound, no headset plug.
I'm carrying an LG V30plus for over 6 months and love its battery life, ergonomics & design, even the speaker & front camera are suck, well please give details on this V35 thinQ as lg marketing the 3D sound here, thanks!
Nope. Total opposite. Bad software, bad camera...the two things you look for in a Google Pixel. I would look OnePlus 6t for a more affordable Pixel alternative.
My LG G3 is still working after 4 years... Just needs a new sim tray and Battery... But I'm thinking upgrading to V35 But unsure from your experience which is better Samsung or LG now?
There's one on there for $180 it just has screen burn I don't know if I should buy it or not I just got listed two days ago would you buy a device with screen burn let me know it's not really bad it's just a pink shadow
It's a steal! Your timing is perfect! If you have another $40 USD ,you can get a brand new Open Box V40 on ebay but V35 is very close specs -wise. V40 has 6.4" screen,an extra telephoto cam and boombox feature. V35 is a 6.0" and no boombox. I just bought V40 and plan to buy V35 too to use as tablet bcuz you can get them on eBay refurb for $120 with just the odd little scratch. I will likely use V35 as business phone. I'm gonna do same in a year or two. Buy 1 yr old tech for $700 off latest and greatest price.
I don't know if you'll see this, but does it have auto focus on wide angle as well? just got lg v30 for 260$ and it doesn't have af on wide ang. cam. In gsmarena its specified that v35 has af on wide angle as well. thanks.
Man lgs software is fine! I wouldn't even use one of those ugly launchers and disrespect my phone lol. U should just get a pixel phone if that's what u like, seriously.. Other than that good stuff.
It goes deeper than that. NO software support, security updates late, still on Android 8.0 in almost 2019. Also, your reference to aftermarket launchers as "ugly" shows a shocking lack of either taste or understanding.
@@johnfreeman440 first lg will get pie soon. And it's fine without it and I would pick the v35 or the v40 over a pixel phone anytime. Yes and the launchers are corny and nerdy. The lg skin feels way better than the skin on a pixel. LG is better than pixel so I guess u have no taste. More people buy lg and Samsung which have the same software and animations. Only thing good on a pixel is the camera which isn't even better than lgs. Especially manual mode.
@@orizinal9750 For companies like LG it takes longer to get updates out, why? Exactly because they software is so unique on their phones, the look and feel. IF they just throw out a update, LG would look just like rest of the phones out there running stock android. My Essential Phone gets Security and updates every month, sometimes 2 times a month, same time pixel gets theirs. But its a stock android feel. LG feel is more like shiny jewels. Can't just update with new os, they want to keep their uniqueness.
@@chigginskeywest Thanks. I'm in Asia right now and this phone (and the Asus ZenFone 5Z alternative I found) are hard to find. LG seem to have stopped marketing the V35 and flooding the market with new models (not necessarily better). See V40, G7 and some recent ones. Searched eBay and a few come up in USA. Nothing in the usual Hong Kong etc.
I don’t get why people say lg over charges for their phones. They don’t charge any more than other companies do. There v series aren’t any worse than the galaxy phones or the newer iPhones yet people seem thankful to pay a grand for them but think lg shouldn’t charge more than 500$ for a premium flagship.
Thanks for telling me about swappa no thanks though the device is on there have screen burn there is bad as eBay how do you say swap has not a good source and the more expensive on swappa
why cant phone manufacturer bring back this form factor? they should refine the top and bottom bezels instead of jumping straight to notch city. arghh!!
I agree. Sony and Nubia RedMagic (the ones without the under display camera) seem to be the only companies keeping the slim bezel flame alive. Of course; Sony has embraced the tall and narrow 21:9 aspect ratio in a big way. I think the newer RedMagics are 19:9. This LG was 18:9. But; if you don't mind that then they're going to be your only choice for a late model higher end phone with no notches or punch holes.
You also need a PayPal account for swappa I cannot get a PayPal account. So I'm sticking with eBay and you can't get a good device in eBay you just got to keep looking and looking and looking that's why I found my last one it took about six months I'll find one
I'm just telling you my experience with the LG G5 even the rep at my AT&T told me not to buy it if you don't have to get another Samsung device that was the wraps advice
If you can swing it, just buy it outright on eBay for $200 or V40 for $240 as Open box like new condition on eBay. Save yourself $280 over a 2 yr contract.
good review,lg front facing camera sucks especially in low light and also the brightness is bad too low for my taste,that’s my only 2 issues with their phones
Single speaker I don't know about single speakers I like stereo speakers I thought this thing at stereo speakers it's the latest and greatest from LG it should the Samsung S9 plus does
The speaker on it is very loud and even have the option to use it in 3D surround sound. U won't regret it. Best sound on a pbone ive Ever had and i change phones like 2 times a year. I wont change this one.
There are no better than the ones in eBay I looked at the pics they charge more for screen burn I don't want screen burn if you wanted some advice would screen burn I'll give you $50 take it or leave it
I'm using the S8 plus now I don't like the fact that it does not have stereo speakers just that one speaker sucks you know what I mean it's not that good compared to the stereo speaker it's much better sound quality
And I don't like wearing headphones I just don't like wearing them I got to be aware of my surroundings I just don't feel comfortable wearing them even when I go on trips I don't wear them I know it's rude but I will not wear them
The only problem is I never bought from a company on eBay always bought my devices off individuals I don't know if buying from these companies on eBay that the device is going to be any good or not is going to be something wrong with it that's what I'm worried about I don't know if you know about buying an eBay or not an Amazon no I will not pay to be a Prime member they want too much money I don't want to pay I don't know about eBay though if I'm getting ripped off or not let me know hundred $80 for one with screen burn I can maybe give you the item number I'll try to find it
I know my V20 has burn in but ive had it for a very long time, the phone is still great, I cant comment on the v35 but its not supposed to have burn in at all
In 2022 I'm still getting 6hrs on screen time. I have newer phones too V40 and V60. The V35 is still a great phone now! Nothing runs poorly. Screen still gorgeous.

James BOND I’m on swappa right now
Got mine brand new for 225 on ebay. Great phone
Is there a better phone for ~225 bucks in 2019? Seems thats about what these cost on ebay unlocked in new condition.
Only thing better is V40 maybe? But V35 is basically a V40 minus that Notch.
@@chigginskeywest you can get v40 for same price in new condition ?
No battery life comparison experience? You have the phone and never let us know what speaker sound like?!!
Speaker is loud and clear
Most people don't care about the speakers
LG V series phone is designed more for headphone cable users, it has quad hd sound through that. External speakers nothing special. IF you don't care about head set wires, then LG G series have the better speaker sound, no headset plug.
Veature_iTech Guy hows battery 1hour pubg vs Nokia 3v or Motorola g7 play or z4
Just bought it for $300 new on eBay
I'm carrying an LG V30plus for over 6 months and love its battery life, ergonomics & design, even the speaker & front camera are suck, well please give details on this V35 thinQ as lg marketing the 3D sound here, thanks!
The dolby x 3d makes a huge difference in sound depth.
Love my V20, will be getting this soon
I highly recommend the V35.
It's super cheap now and has 9.0 Pie. Basically a V40 minus that Notch.
Can you switch from normal angle to wide angle lens while recording a video?
Yes you can
You can also "spot zoom" while shooting video.
You can also pause recording and pick up the recording later. Not stop and start a new video it will still be the same video
@@RJ_Uploads are you sure if this? I have seen many comments about that feature being gone, V30 was the Las V with that option
You guys think the V35 compares to the Pixel 3?
Nope. Total opposite. Bad software, bad camera...the two things you look for in a Google Pixel.
I would look OnePlus 6t for a more affordable Pixel alternative.
If you want more get the V35
If you want updates get the pixel
LG v35 or Xiaomi mi mix 2s?
V35
I could try the lgv35 there's one on eBay $ 185 there's also an lgv30 for 1:39
My LG G3 is still working after 4 years...
Just needs a new sim tray and Battery...
But I'm thinking upgrading to V35
But unsure from your experience which is better Samsung or LG now?
For me Lg is better
still not sure if this phone has a dual SIM Card or just a single card? please let me know thank you
estou com e mesma duvida e ninguem consegue sanar
It is dual sim. Or one sim with an sd card. But its either or not both
There's one on there for $180 it just has screen burn I don't know if I should buy it or not I just got listed two days ago would you buy a device with screen burn let me know it's not really bad it's just a pink shadow
I might buy this phone now for 200 ...is it still worth it
It's a steal! Your timing is perfect! If you have another $40 USD ,you can get a brand new Open Box V40 on ebay but V35 is very close specs -wise. V40 has 6.4" screen,an extra telephoto cam and boombox feature. V35 is a 6.0" and no boombox. I just bought V40 and plan to buy V35 too to use as tablet bcuz you can get them on eBay refurb for $120 with just the odd little scratch. I will likely use V35 as business phone. I'm gonna do same in a year or two. Buy 1 yr old tech for $700 off latest and greatest price.
@@musicalala I don't like the notch and this phone is for my mom and she wants it to be as small as possible
@@musicalala Thanks for the info though :)
@@Ivan-mn3ph I see .Yeah it's big.
Got it brand new on eBay for $310 waiting for it to arrive now
Good luck on that deal.....your may need it... Lemons get sold on eBay
Got mine on eBay for $400...perfect condition 10/10, still got my Moto G5+ as a backup too!
Got mine on las carpitas in tijuana B.C. m.x. import from Korea unlock in 450 ,but has cámara sofwer problems .
I don't know if you'll see this, but does it have auto focus on wide angle as well? just got lg v30 for 260$ and it doesn't have af on wide ang. cam. In gsmarena its specified that v35 has af on wide angle as well. thanks.
It's very reasonable on Amazon at the moment... Thanks for the video
Man lgs software is fine! I wouldn't even use one of those ugly launchers and disrespect my phone lol. U should just get a pixel phone if that's what u like, seriously.. Other than that good stuff.
It goes deeper than that. NO software support, security updates late, still on Android 8.0 in almost 2019.
Also, your reference to aftermarket launchers as "ugly" shows a shocking lack of either taste or understanding.
@@johnfreeman440 first lg will get pie soon. And it's fine without it and I would pick the v35 or the v40 over a pixel phone anytime. Yes and the launchers are corny and nerdy. The lg skin feels way better than the skin on a pixel. LG is better than pixel so I guess u have no taste. More people buy lg and Samsung which have the same software and animations. Only thing good on a pixel is the camera which isn't even better than lgs. Especially manual mode.
@@orizinal9750 For companies like LG it takes longer to get updates out, why? Exactly because they software is so unique on their phones, the look and feel. IF they just throw out a update, LG would look just like rest of the phones out there running stock android. My Essential Phone gets Security and updates every month, sometimes 2 times a month, same time pixel gets theirs. But its a stock android feel. LG feel is more like shiny jewels. Can't just update with new os, they want to keep their uniqueness.
Coped mine free with 400 dollar credit. Luv it.
Next December will be 3 Years using muy LG V20... and Still works fine
Nice, it's a great phone still.
The best designed phone ever
If you pick the phone up from Amazon and simply install the Pixel camera apk, it's a terrific phone!
Tried it from XDA.
It’s on amazon now for 550
The Google pixel 2 extra large was $279 128 gig the only thing the speaker Grill is missing i
Lg v35 have better display than the xiaomi ?
By far
Got my V35 unlocked for $240. I'm Loving it!
Hi, Is that new and where from eBay?
@@ThePharaohsCat no it was on Craigslist. But it's Brand New! Check ebay they got V35 super cheap!
@@chigginskeywest Thanks. I'm in Asia right now and this phone (and the Asus ZenFone 5Z alternative I found) are hard to find. LG seem to have stopped marketing the V35 and flooding the market with new models (not necessarily better). See V40, G7 and some recent ones. Searched eBay and a few come up in USA. Nothing in the usual Hong Kong etc.
It's a AT&T exclusive phone in USA. Can you buy from Amazon? They sell V35 unlocked also.
@@chigginskeywest Same there. Quite limited. I'll stick an auto search on. Something will come up.
I just got one, at&t will give you a 350$ credit for your old phone, I had a old j3.
I don’t get why people say lg over charges for their phones. They don’t charge any more than other companies do. There v series aren’t any worse than the galaxy phones or the newer iPhones yet people seem thankful to pay a grand for them but think lg shouldn’t charge more than 500$ for a premium flagship.
Just heard this phone is coming to Cricket Wireless for $349. Supplies are supposed to be limited though.
That’s a sweet deal if it’s true!
@@donavonhornbeck it's $299.99 now
@@TheTreb68 definitely worth it at that price.
Can you tell me how can I update my V35 it was AT&T.
Can I just put in someone's AT&T sim card in it? Or does it need to be a V35 sim card from AT&T?
I suggest to you , don't update your phone
Cause if you update there is posibility the phone is laggy
I make sure I have a really good case any of these devices
Thanks for telling me about swappa no thanks though the device is on there have screen burn there is bad as eBay how do you say swap has not a good source and the more expensive on swappa
Xiaomi mi 8 has Oled screen from Samsung , not lcd
Semir Pejic haha! He’s not doing the research much!
that is the crappiest amoled, maybe he had brightness turned down?
why cant phone manufacturer bring back this form factor? they should refine the top and bottom bezels instead of jumping straight to notch city. arghh!!
I agree. Sony and Nubia RedMagic (the ones without the under display camera) seem to be the only companies keeping the slim bezel flame alive. Of course; Sony has embraced the tall and narrow 21:9 aspect ratio in a big way. I think the newer RedMagics are 19:9. This LG was 18:9. But; if you don't mind that then they're going to be your only choice for a late model higher end phone with no notches or punch holes.
Another VIP feat, It would be nice if you could swap cameras while recording videos, in the V30 is not possible yet.
What you mean? I have the V30 and I can swap between cameras while recording. Actually I am afraid this feature is absent starting v35 an on...
Heavier doesn't mean more expensive.
You also need a PayPal account for swappa I cannot get a PayPal account. So I'm sticking with eBay and you can't get a good device in eBay you just got to keep looking and looking and looking that's why I found my last one it took about six months I'll find one
I waited. It's now just below $300!
My V35 says 20% and 5 hrs. 30 mins. On screen time.
So I will easily get 6+ hours.
I'm just telling you my experience with the LG G5 even the rep at my AT&T told me not to buy it if you don't have to get another Samsung device that was the wraps advice
He shouldn't work at LG.
My phone is so good I could use them 2% power and it would last all day long on 2% can your device do that
And exactly what device are you talking about,sir? Cause frankly,I DO NOT BELIEVE YOU,my good sir!!🤣🤣🤣😅😅😅😂😂😂
It’s $20.00 a month right now.
If you can swing it, just buy it outright on eBay for $200 or V40 for $240 as Open box like new condition on eBay. Save yourself $280 over a 2 yr contract.
What security patch update are you on now?
Shows May 1 2018.
And mine still is.
Because I unlocked it.
good review,lg front facing camera sucks especially in low light and also the brightness is bad too low for my taste,that’s my only 2 issues with their phones
Single speaker I don't know about single speakers I like stereo speakers I thought this thing at stereo speakers it's the latest and greatest from LG it should the Samsung S9 plus does
The speaker on it is very loud and even have the option to use it in 3D surround sound. U won't regret it. Best sound on a pbone ive Ever had and i change phones like 2 times a year. I wont change this one.
Wow this phone looking premium I love it ..but I don't have money much more I'm from India
There are no better than the ones in eBay I looked at the pics they charge more for screen burn I don't want screen burn if you wanted some advice would screen burn I'll give you $50 take it or leave it
I'm using the S8 plus now I don't like the fact that it does not have stereo speakers just that one speaker sucks you know what I mean it's not that good compared to the stereo speaker it's much better sound quality
OVER 9000!!!
Got it off Amazon for $350
$350 is a sweet price for this phone!
How good was the phone?
It's $250 now
Is it worth it over Redmi Note 9S
g4 to g5 now buying lg v35
And I don't like wearing headphones I just don't like wearing them I got to be aware of my surroundings I just don't feel comfortable wearing them even when I go on trips I don't wear them I know it's rude but I will not wear them
The only problem is I never bought from a company on eBay always bought my devices off individuals I don't know if buying from these companies on eBay that the device is going to be any good or not is going to be something wrong with it that's what I'm worried about I don't know if you know about buying an eBay or not an Amazon no I will not pay to be a Prime member they want too much money I don't want to pay I don't know about eBay though if I'm getting ripped off or not let me know hundred $80 for one with screen burn I can maybe give you the item number I'll try to find it
It doesn't have a notch. That ALONE is worth $50 extra.
And they want like $169 for screen burn no thanks
I know my V20 has burn in but ive had it for a very long time, the phone is still great, I cant comment on the v35 but its not supposed to have burn in at all
