The answer has been posted! Which phone was which? Does the V60 REALLY need a telephoto sensor? I posted the conclusion here ua-cam.com/video/or5SNEQErzU/v-deo.html
I have my V60 on the way and I'm quite excited for it. What keypad and mouse would you recommend for this device? I think in a pinch this would be a good laptop for quick jobs at work

Big question 🛡️: I'm looking to order 2nd hand phone as main camera + spare time gaming, choice between: Google Pixel 4 Huawei p30 Honor 20 pro Iphone SE 2020 Samsung galaxy s10+ Xiaomi Mi 10 Note LG V50 5G All cost where I'm now around 400-450$ as second hand. And no, no one import pixel 4 A here yet. How V50 compared to others on the list? What if using Gcam on v50 does it get close to iphone and pixel 4? Kindly help me, Thank you 🙏
You're awesome! I had come conclusion time and time again that Samsung was way too expensive or not as good of a upgrade and not worth the money compared to what I will get on a LG. I was a little sad to see the g series phone leave, but the G8 was a pretty great phone to have. If getting about a day and a half of use out of my G8 was not enough, the audio output from the main speakers are crazy! I'm assuming it will probably be the same for the v60, but the G8 equalizer will actually boost your audio, not just tweak which sound Wave comes across stronger. I mean the LG main speakeris actually too loud if you adjust all of The equalizer settings to maximum. I never really cared for a quad HD display, and on my G8 I have it dialed down to the lowest resolution. And the reason is exactly for receiving higher battery life. I don't really care about putting my nose up to the screen to try to find the separate pixels. I think the v60 is on point with several things, including the lower resolution display. Thank you for saying a lot of what I've been telling other people about LG being a great phone compared to Samsung. Usually, the Samsung guys will tell me about some top and specs that don't make sense to me, and are specs that really don't matter to me.
The Verizon store I buy from showed me the V40 when i was looking to purchase an S10. I'm glad they did and here I am happy with my V40 two years later.
@@mistamaog price was also a factor. I went to look at buying an s10 on its launch day and the v40 had been out for a few months already and was getting cheaper. The V40 does everything I need it to.
Yep, and it's on BOGO. So you get 2 dual screens for ~$37 per month. Been tempted to get it but my old Huawei mate 9 from late 2016 still works like day 1!
You are by far the most insightful and objective tech viewer in the youtube realm. Just like the LG phones you may seem underrated but dude, time will tell who the real gem is
LG made the right choices with the V60, great specs but nothing unnecessary. I was still rocking my V30+ so the upgrade was completely warranted at this point. Great review by the way Juan, I enjoy all of the video your post, thank you.
I am on a v30 with a cracked screen and can get two v60s for 800. Is it worth it over the competition? I am mainly concerned about the size and bezels around the screen.
As I write this, I am literally my first day without my v20. Had to upgrade to the G8 because the charging port just plain flat broke inside my v20 and charging it was near impossible. I will miss the phone. He was very dependable. Glad all of yours are still holding up.
Love my V60, I couldn't kill the battery in a whole 24 hours even when I've tried even using dual screen it's SOT(screenontime) is UNMATCHED and it's performance is too good to be true. Who needs higher than 60hrz RR when a phone comes equiped with a punch like this?
I wish i could get v60. i've now used v50 mybe upgrade to v60 when it prices lowered and planning to pick up korea cer due its cheaper on secondary market.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I been rocking LG phones since the LG G2, G4, and then V10, and so on, that quad DAC is a sealed deal for me, the day they remove the headphone jack I'm out.
Although QHD would be nice, who in their right mind would think the dual screen (with identical panels) and better battery performance isn't worth the trade for content creators?
Personally I'd have taken the 1440p display with higher refresh rate. I think the dual screen concept is cool for a small number of people but that it won't appeal to most folks enough. I can see why LG did it, as they can't just keep making the same design and expect to get different results. But personally i wouldn't use the second screen much and have never felt the need for it while im making content on my V30+. I love the 1440p res on this thing and can definitely notice the difference.
I can understand the screen resolution downgrade when it comes to battery life - lower res means longer battery. As for the question? That goes to tech sellouts, I mean UA-camrs.
2nd hand prices for LG phones are the best bargains you can get. In my country. G7 $160 V40 $280 V50 $350 (no 2nd display. With 2nd display $440) G8 $300
1440p high refresh rate screens for both the main display and second screen would have destroyed battery life. I think the 1080p display is beautiful and I see no real drawbacks.
I hesitated, but decided to pull the trigger on the V60. My hesitation was from the lack of high refresh rate, but considering I've been complaining about battery life on my phone, and the fact that many of it's competitors are dropping the headphone jack, I went and pulled the trigger. It'll be my first LG phone. The resolution going down doesn't bother me, because I have tested an S20 Ultra in stores and could not tell the difference between 1440p and 1080p, and that's a 6.9" display. The dual screen seems like it can be really cool for gaming. And the biggest reason I bought this phone is the BOGO deal on my carrier. The more I watch videos on this phone, the more I find it appealing. It's easy to complain just by looking at numbers, which I'm guilty of. But I think we're all aloud to complain when that number is pricing, and this year's Samsung phones are out of control with pricing. So I'm officially switching from Samsung to LG.
@@SomeGadgetGuy Thank you sir! Your videos actually made me consider LG when rumors came out that Samsung would be dropping the headphone jack. The phone comes in today!
Watching with my lg v30 brought 2 years ago. Although it is hard for me to get accessory in my country (screen protector and cases) but This is so far the best phone experience for me. No one understand me here in Malaysia and Singapore. And now i am planning to get v50 while v60 is out (NOT SELLING IN MALAYSIA AND SINGAPORE). This video just come out in time to help me make decision. Best tech review content i watched. Awesome. Thank you so much for the hardwork so that we can know more.
I saw a V50 sold at Shopee for about RM1,600. Ngl, that is now a hugely capable flagship phone for midrange money. As for the V60? Hmmm... no one knows if someone is going to sell it here.
You are like superhero for me! No one in youtube was comparasing lg v50 vs v60 (or v35 vs v40, v40 vs v50 or other V series vs V series) and you are first who did it! Super! Thank you!
Hey bro, I got my V60 for free at AT&T limited time promo and waiting on my free dual screen from LG. only for this month for the dual screen promo and I'm loving it I'm going to miss my V20 with the Zerolemon 10K mAh battery case. It was a champ! 💪🏼 Great vid bro keep it up! #LGRock
@@SomeGadgetGuy yeah he's great. Check out his song 'Aspen Rose' -beautiful lyrics. He's a really nice guy to talk with too. I'm sure you and he could talk audio for hours.
I'm on the V50 as well and tbh I had the V30 before this... The one thing I don't like on the V50 is the lower level of max screen brightness and the power button not being inside the fingerprint reader
Love how you rock LG and give them the love they deserve. I sell phones. LG is my most common phone to bring out. If I can get a customer to actually look at it they generally buy it. Issue is they here LG and flip out and want to see their beloved Samsung. I have a 95% close rate when they actually let me demo the phone and they see how legit they really are.
Upgrading my LG v10 that I've had since launch (6 years now?) to a LGv50 ThinQ that I picked up for $230 refurbished off Amazon... Super excited to receive it because I've fallen in love with my v10. Super incredible phone... and who can say they've had the same phone for 6 years? Freaking beast. Got my moneys worth thats for sure.
I'm sill rocking my V30. Just love the form factor. I'm liking the V60 so far but that notch might be a deal breaker for me. Although I'm liking the blue and gold model. Your thoughts Juan?
Ugh I miss the V30 shape. Absolutely stunning. I hate Notches, but I can live with a little tear drop for the extra power and benefits. If you don't need this horse power though, it might be worth waiting to see how the Pixel and G9 come out. I think the bang for buck is MUCH smarter on the "premium mid range".
I am sticking with my V30 because of the notch. Now I am really tempted by the Sony Xperia 1 mark II. If that phone has no glaring flaws it will be my next phone. Hope Juan gives it a fair review when it drops. I'm sure he will.
I love you reviews Juan. I watched both this video and the LG v50 video about a year ago and now that LG has quit making phones I'm at a toss up between that LG v50 versus the LG v60 yet again! Lol. I really want the LG v60 just because I don't already own a LG v50 and it's the last and the best of its kind! I've always been an LG phone guy versus the typical Apple or Samsung guy. LG made good phones for a little less versus the more popular brands and it's sad to see them step out of the cell phone game.
A Verizon V50 owner I was disappointed that the dual screen option didnt come to the US for this phone. I wasnt going to downgrade to the G8X. So the V60 with the dual screen is pulling me to upgrade. Just wish LG would market this phone better. Haven't seen 1 commercial for it. Everyone at home watching TV flood the channels with your phone
No joke. Almost NO media that I've seen. The G8X youtube videos were pushed WAY more aggressively, and that phone actually got a little visibility. T-Mo is doing all the heavy lifting for V60 it would seem.
I'm legit pissed off. I get the faster MM wave 5G Verizon has for their version of the V60. So we're already more expensive. NOW I have to fill out a form and wait a month to get my dual screen. Its almost making me want to switch to T Mo. Is AT&T pulling this BS have to go on the LG promo site? LG why did you ok this!!!!
You are the only youtuber who reviews LG phones honestly, i hate others who atempted to call their video a review... while not showing anything, not comparing anything and telling that LG does OK, while it definitely killing other phones in some aspects. Going to wait a bit more, LG V50 can be had for under 400$ refurbished and i have no problem with that, bought my mother LG V35 refurbished for 200$ half a year ago. I only con would not working Google camera :) no one did any kind of ports for that phone, while there are working ports for LG V30. The only departament LG lacks is camera but only in auto mode taking basic pictures. If it had processing of google it would be untouchable :)
The V series has always been great, LG needs to put more into there marketing to compete with Samsung and Apple. I just feel like that's where they drop the ball, because the hardware has been great. I also think there are a couple UA-cam influencers that have hands in the pockets of Apple and Samsung, but LG doesn't seem to have payed those guys off yet to get the recommendations.
The 1 thing I have yet to hear in ANY review is regarding the military grade durability - that was my main reason for jumping on the V train and my 10, 20, and current 30 all had that tank-like durability. I just wanna hear it confirmed that the 60 has this as well and I'm SOLD!
Well A looked a bit warmer and B a little cooler. And A had more noise as well as detail (micro phone picture) compared to B. And in the coconut picture A had better detail in the darker area. Overall very minor differences and either phone will be great.
I'm probably LG's biggest fan from Nigeria, never owned any of their devices and they don't sell them hear, still hoping on getting a used G8 on eBay next month to start making my own videos. (I'm inspired by you and a few other UA-camrs). You make the best reviews, you, Eric from Easy Computer Solutions and Matthew's Tech made me love the LG's. P.S. I tried to get on Patreon to watch a full clip to master the manual cam modes but couldn't afford it 🤣 Dollar to Naira is something else and I'm not working. But will join that ship when I can. Rock on man.
I get the feeling this guy knows what a LG phone is about! Congrats dude, typing this on my G6, when an up graded phone comes to NZ, ie V50 or 60 I am going to buy it!
I just got a V50, partly due to your praise for it, and the way I see it I think that the V60 might not have been the phone for me had I waited. I upgraded from a Pixel 2 XL, from necessity otherwise I would've held onto it (and I'm currently not impressed with the pixel line). I LOVE having a fingerprint scanner on the back, in screen ones are a gimmick, I don't really like face unlock that much. I don't care for a dual screen, though the option would've been nice. You're right about how overpowered our smartphones are so despite having a better benchmark scores, I'm sure day to day use would be largely the same. But damn, there really is no replacement for displacement when it comes to battery, and even then the V50 battery is pretty solid. As for photo quality, if we're going with auto, why not just side load the gcam app for the V50 and have more hardware at your disposal? At the moment I don't think I'd swap my V50 for a V60, but that's just me. Marginal improvements with some changes I don't like but obviously still a great phone and nice to see the price being more competitive.
I just use my btr5 in wired mode. 😅The lg series is quite expensive, also the btr5 in bt mode is awesome too. And best part is it doesn't take smartphone phone battery as it has its own battery. Love that small device, using it with my blon bl-03 and the tin t4.
Please do a Comparison with Battery Life and Full Audio + Speaker review please as these are possibly the most important feature to me before camera quality if they are similar in photos quality 😊
I like the fact you kept following the V series phones.and overall lg phones and you gave them credits where it deserved..unlike other Tech nerds on YT
Thank you so much for point out the refresh rate and battery hate most reviews spoke of!!! Cuz your right it was a problem on the other phones but it's quiet not for Samsung..one reviewer did a follow up review on the pixel 3 months later ..he killed it for no wide angel then said in the video ( I knows it's been out for a while and I really haven't had any situations to called for a wide angle) I was like gasp!!
For someone like me who never owned LG, this is a tricky one. The V60 has the latest Snapdragon 865 chipset and a mammoth 5000mAh battery. Yes the screen is just FHD+ compared to V50's QHD+, but that means longer battery life. However, I actually prefer the V50's DualScreen case. Yes, it doesn't have secondary screen at the front and the second screen itself is not symmetrical to the V50's screen. But the V50's pogo pin solution means that the USB-C port is totally free for me to connect anything. The V60 relies on a magnetic connector, and just imagine what would happen if you accidentally lost that magnetic connector. Hmmm... 🤔
From my experience with cameras and my v50, or v45, I will have to say B is the v50 as with my personal experience the telephoto is normally blurry zoomed in.
Thank you so much for this review. I really couldnt see spending the money that Samsung wants for their phones. I am clearly looking for value and real world performance for daily tasks like emailing, scanning documents, talking on the phone, and texting at the sametime. Moving on from a HTC U Ultra that seems to be having memory issues but otherwise did the job!
Still using my G6+, i like it when the fingerprint is also the power button, and the buttons on the side is only at one area. But this v60 development is great. Im just hoping they get to be quicker on sending those software updates on the new phones if there is.
Yeah but the V60 is several steps back. The sensor has been put on the front - which is the worst possible change they could have made. 6:02 - and if THAT, on the right, is supposed to be the v60, then it's a further step back. Look at how muted the brown colors are in B.
One thing I wish you would have done in your video was put the V 50 in the V60 side-by-side outside of the case so that I can really get a true size difference
Hi Juan Can you please help out Which one should I get a pixel 4 xl 128gb for 600€ Or Pixel 4 xl 64gb for 450€ Or Lg v60 for 600€ Or Galaxy s20 600€ Personally I feel the s20 has the least compromises But for some weird reason I don't like buying a phone that everyone is buying 😕. Which one would you pick if were in my place?
I gotta sa_, you have people bragging about having shot actual Hollywood movies on iPhone. I saw people shooting stuff on a Red Camera with a LG V30 taped right next to it and then they color corrected the footage. It looked absolutely amazing. Pretty much 80 percent there.
Great Comparison Juan should have also have included in the video for people rocking older V phone users but I upgraded from the V30 and while I do miss the size of the V30 it is a great improvement the size for me its all about getting used to but overall I'm loving the V60 with all the audio goodness and the dual screen!!
I'm currently rocking the v20. I seriously need to upgrade. It's because I'm addicted to high end specs that I've been disappointed with the recent flagships. Especially ones with those horrible pinholes and notches. It doesn't seem likely but I'm praying the Note 20 Ultra will delete the pinhole. Gr8 vid. 📱
As LG V35 and LG V50 user, I think I go with V60. Only thing you lose is the quad hd panel but win: More battery life, 8gb ram, 865 Snapdragon and more screen.
in that quick camera test, I'd guess the V60 was A, it was a bit sharper on the microphone so convention would say newer is better.....but for some reason I feel like that might be wrong.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I'm curious, did you ever do a review of the Moto X? I've tried looking but came up short. When it launched it seemed like people slammed it for only being dual core, 720p, and a bunch of other stuff, but in actual use it performed better than the higher-spec'd phones and by the end of its lifespan people loved it. Anyway, I like that you actually take a deep dive into these devices rather than reading the numbers and saying 'more higher is better'. It is unfortunately kind of a unique viewpoint to your content and makes your channel stand above most others in my eyes.
I upgraded from the LG G7 to the V60 and I'm liking it. The bigger battery, more space, bigger screen, more ram, faster processor, and 5G blow the G7 out of the water. Only downside is the lower resolution display but, I can overlook that with all the pros I'm getting out of this phone. This will be my daily driver for two years and I'm hoping to keep it longer than my G7.
Lol no no no no u did it all wrong sir or ma'am why will u sold ur s10 + in the s10 is better then the note 9 5g we on the s20 now upgrade in get the s20 ultra
Anybody knows why MKBHD and other major reviewers don't review this phone? I don't like this kind of behaviour. If this was an iPhone, Samsung, OnePlus, even the unboxing videos would be uploaded immediately...
as for the photos. B looks sharper to me and less noisy. I also like the dynamic range better. It changed depending on the photo though so the scene you're taking matters
I have a V20 + 6400 mah battery and I just got aware of the v60. If I knew about this phone during black friday, I would have snag one. Well... Christmas sales it is then. LG rarely gets the spotlight on them, but they are very decent phones. Loved my G3, G4 (that I still use as backup) and love my v20.
After watching all your videos on LG V50, im finally able to watch your videos on my new LG V50 haha. Thank you for influincing me to buy this phone haha.
JuanBagnell I think it’s size and shape hit a nice sweet spot for me. And the cameras seem to have gotten better. My two biggest gripes are the loudspeaker and battery life isn’t great.
Hi Juan, I still have my LG V30 from Day 1. Had the V40 for a short while after it came out, but didn't like the notch concept (still don't, rock OP7 Pro for that reason lol). Is the V60 DAC Quality better or worse than it's predecessor? I'm getting more audiophile-ey and have been hearing that the V50 offered the last great Quad DAC. I would have kept the V30 going, but Android Pie has a bug where tracks with low bass have a a clicking sound when played...with no good custom ROM support or LG support, I'm thinking of upgrading.
I'm glad to hear LG is playing by their own rules and not following the crowd anymore. I loved my v10 but the style and design choices of the V30 were meh. I love that lg focuses on its sound delivery and its camera ability. Now if they could get their quality under control they'd win me back.
I'm going to say that the A photos are the V60 and B is the V50. At least on the microphone comparison. As a V40 user I almost never use the telephoto Lens. It's good to have, but isn't that useful if it isn't integrated well.
In the case of T-Mobile customers, we have to weigh 5G connectivity. The earlier V-series phones did not have it, nor the G phones, but the V60 definitely has it. I'm still using a V20, so for me, it would be a very worthy upgrade.

Two LG V60s with dual screens for $899 on T-Mobile is insanely great value for money.

I also love the G8, definitely a true jack-of-all-trades smartphone.
V50 owner here. I got the Korean version with dual screen support when I travelled to Korea in July.
only channel that you can come to and get a great LG phone review.. keep up the good work!
Always impressed by the control offered by the LG V series phones. I'm looking for a change soon and the V60 is one sweet siren call.
LOL We do get called to new gadgets a bit more frequently...
Although QHD would be nice, who in their right mind would think the dual screen (with identical panels) and better battery performance isn't worth the trade for content creators?
LOL plenty of tech "enthusiasts" in my twitter feed...
Personally I'd have taken the 1440p display with higher refresh rate. I think the dual screen concept is cool for a small number of people but that it won't appeal to most folks enough. I can see why LG did it, as they can't just keep making the same design and expect to get different results. But personally i wouldn't use the second screen much and have never felt the need for it while im making content on my V30+. I love the 1440p res on this thing and can definitely notice the difference.
I dial all of my phones back to 1080, anyway. It really helps my battery performance, and my eyes can't tell the difference, anyway.
I can understand the screen resolution downgrade when it comes to battery life - lower res means longer battery. As for the question? That goes to tech sellouts, I mean UA-camrs.
Gar Davis why not give the users that option to choose..🤨?
2nd hand prices for LG phones are the best bargains you can get. In my country.
G7 $160
V40 $280
V50 $350 (no 2nd display. With 2nd display $440)
G8 $300
1440p high refresh rate screens for both the main display and second screen would have destroyed battery life. I think the 1080p display is beautiful and I see no real drawbacks.
I hesitated, but decided to pull the trigger on the V60. My hesitation was from the lack of high refresh rate, but considering I've been complaining about battery life on my phone, and the fact that many of it's competitors are dropping the headphone jack, I went and pulled the trigger. It'll be my first LG phone.
The resolution going down doesn't bother me, because I have tested an S20 Ultra in stores and could not tell the difference between 1440p and 1080p, and that's a 6.9" display. The dual screen seems like it can be really cool for gaming. And the biggest reason I bought this phone is the BOGO deal on my carrier.
The more I watch videos on this phone, the more I find it appealing. It's easy to complain just by looking at numbers, which I'm guilty of. But I think we're all aloud to complain when that number is pricing, and this year's Samsung phones are out of control with pricing.
So I'm officially switching from Samsung to LG.
It's a STONKING good deal on a BOGO. Hope you enjoy it! LG has different quirks than a Samsung, but there's a lot of fun stuff to try out too!
@@SomeGadgetGuy Thank you sir! Your videos actually made me consider LG when rumors came out that Samsung would be dropping the headphone jack. The phone comes in today!
Watching with my lg v30 brought 2 years ago. Although it is hard for me to get accessory in my country (screen protector and cases) but This is so far the best phone experience for me.
No one understand me here in Malaysia and Singapore.
And now i am planning to get v50 while v60 is out (NOT SELLING IN MALAYSIA AND SINGAPORE). This video just come out in time to help me make decision.
Best tech review content i watched. Awesome.
Thank you so much for the hardwork so that we can know more.
I saw a V50 sold at Shopee for about RM1,600. Ngl, that is now a hugely capable flagship phone for midrange money. As for the V60? Hmmm... no one knows if someone is going to sell it here.
Im watching in my V50
So happy to have this phone, before i was upgrading instead v40
Happy LG Family
Man you hit it on the NAIL Bro!
GREAT Video 👊👍✌️
👍
You know what's CRAZY! is I still use my LG v20 to create content on my UA-cam Channel 👍 I would love to see LG revamp that specific Smartphone 👊
Thanks Juan, looking forward to the audio review. Currently still on a V20 ;-)
I enjoy your channel. Been looking at a V50 and have found your videos very useful. Thanks! Congrats on building a very good and useful channel.
Looking forward to more videos on the LG V60.
You are like superhero for me! No one in youtube was comparasing lg v50 vs v60 (or v35 vs v40, v40 vs v50 or other V series vs V series) and you are first who did it! Super! Thank you!
Is the conclusion from v50 to v60 not really "upgrading"? English not my first language sorry
Honestly I love LG over Samsung but I just can't handle how big these phones are becoming
It's getting rough out there.
My iPhone SE fits inside the screen of most phones now ;p
Hey bro, I got my V60 for free at AT&T limited time promo and waiting on my free dual screen from LG. only for this month for the dual screen promo and I'm loving it I'm going to miss my V20 with the Zerolemon 10K mAh battery case. It was a champ! 💪🏼 Great vid bro keep it up! #LGRock
Nice to see some David Elias in your music collection. His DSD recordings are about as high quality as its possible to get and the music is great too.
A person on my Patreon hipped me to Elias. AMAZING.
@@SomeGadgetGuy yeah he's great. Check out his song 'Aspen Rose' -beautiful lyrics. He's a really nice guy to talk with too. I'm sure you and he could talk audio for hours.
Still Using LG V50, dual display and Great video manual setting.
DAC and 3.5 mm audio Jack is a plus point for me too.
I'm on the V50 as well and tbh I had the V30 before this... The one thing I don't like on the V50 is the lower level of max screen brightness and the power button not being inside the fingerprint reader
Love how you rock LG and give them the love they deserve. I sell phones. LG is my most common phone to bring out. If I can get a customer to actually look at it they generally buy it. Issue is they here LG and flip out and want to see their beloved Samsung. I have a 95% close rate when they actually let me demo the phone and they see how legit they really are.
Upgrading my LG v10 that I've had since launch (6 years now?) to a LGv50 ThinQ that I picked up for $230 refurbished off Amazon... Super excited to receive it because I've fallen in love with my v10. Super incredible phone... and who can say they've had the same phone for 6 years? Freaking beast. Got my moneys worth thats for sure.
Juan, the clutching of pearls and twisting of panties was hilarious!!!! Great comparison by the way!!
I still can't get the battery life everyone is getting on the V60 but I still love this phone.
I'm sill rocking my V30. Just love the form factor. I'm liking the V60 so far but that notch might be a deal breaker for me. Although I'm liking the blue and gold model. Your thoughts Juan?
Ugh I miss the V30 shape. Absolutely stunning. I hate Notches, but I can live with a little tear drop for the extra power and benefits. If you don't need this horse power though, it might be worth waiting to see how the Pixel and G9 come out. I think the bang for buck is MUCH smarter on the "premium mid range".
I am sticking with my V30 because of the notch. Now I am really tempted by the Sony Xperia 1 mark II. If that phone has no glaring flaws it will be my next phone. Hope Juan gives it a fair review when it drops. I'm sure he will.
Coming from a G6, Cannot wait to get my V60. (Not until a little while ago I had no idea the V60 came out)
I love you reviews Juan. I watched both this video and the LG v50 video about a year ago and now that LG has quit making phones I'm at a toss up between that LG v50 versus the LG v60 yet again! Lol. I really want the LG v60 just because I don't already own a LG v50 and it's the last and the best of its kind! I've always been an LG phone guy versus the typical Apple or Samsung guy.
LG made good phones for a little less versus the more popular brands and it's sad to see them step out of the cell phone game.
Awesome review my friend I was looking forward to this!! :)
A Verizon V50 owner I was disappointed that the dual screen option didnt come to the US for this phone. I wasnt going to downgrade to the G8X. So the V60 with the dual screen is pulling me to upgrade. Just wish LG would market this phone better. Haven't seen 1 commercial for it. Everyone at home watching TV flood the channels with your phone
No joke. Almost NO media that I've seen. The G8X youtube videos were pushed WAY more aggressively, and that phone actually got a little visibility. T-Mo is doing all the heavy lifting for V60 it would seem.
@@SomeGadgetGuy it's just crazy.
The G8x is an upgrade, not a downgrade.
I'm legit pissed off. I get the faster MM wave 5G Verizon has for their version of the V60. So we're already more expensive. NOW I have to fill out a form and wait a month to get my dual screen. Its almost making me want to switch to T Mo. Is AT&T pulling this BS have to go on the LG promo site? LG why did you ok this!!!!
I still can’t believe they downgraded the ppi and resolution of the V60 compared to the V50
You are the only youtuber who reviews LG phones honestly, i hate others who atempted to call their video a review... while not showing anything, not comparing anything and telling that LG does OK, while it definitely killing other phones in some aspects. Going to wait a bit more, LG V50 can be had for under 400$ refurbished and i have no problem with that, bought my mother LG V35 refurbished for 200$ half a year ago. I only con would not working Google camera :) no one did any kind of ports for that phone, while there are working ports for LG V30. The only departament LG lacks is camera but only in auto mode taking basic pictures. If it had processing of google it would be untouchable :)
The V series has always been great, LG needs to put more into there marketing to compete with Samsung and Apple. I just feel like that's where they drop the ball, because the hardware has been great.
I also think there are a couple UA-cam influencers that have hands in the pockets of Apple and Samsung, but LG doesn't seem to have payed those guys off yet to get the recommendations.
The 1 thing I have yet to hear in ANY review is regarding the military grade durability - that was my main reason for jumping on the V train and my 10, 20, and current 30 all had that tank-like durability. I just wanna hear it confirmed that the 60 has this as well and I'm SOLD!
Its rated 810G. Same as the V50.
@@SomeGadgetGuy SOLD! Thank you sir
I love when you DIGRESS. Makes my day.
😊
Great video 👍 giving LG the credit they deserve for being unique and one of a kind I hope to get my hands on one soon
Well A looked a bit warmer and B a little cooler. And A had more noise as well as detail (micro phone picture) compared to B. And in the coconut picture A had better detail in the darker area. Overall very minor differences and either phone will be great.
I'm probably LG's biggest fan from Nigeria, never owned any of their devices and they don't sell them hear, still hoping on getting a used G8 on eBay next month to start making my own videos. (I'm inspired by you and a few other UA-camrs).
You make the best reviews, you, Eric from Easy Computer Solutions and Matthew's Tech made me love the LG's.
P.S. I tried to get on Patreon to watch a full clip to master the manual cam modes but couldn't afford it 🤣
Dollar to Naira is something else and I'm not working.
But will join that ship when I can.
Rock on man.
Iam gonna miss LG in cell phone market in 2021 and beyond
I get the feeling this guy knows what a LG phone is about! Congrats dude, typing this on my G6, when an up graded phone comes to NZ, ie V50 or 60 I am going to buy it!
Suprise with V60 💗 All I need have in this smartphone
I will wait until v70, currently rocking v50
Am sorry to say this will never be... Very sad...
I just got a V50, partly due to your praise for it, and the way I see it I think that the V60 might not have been the phone for me had I waited. I upgraded from a Pixel 2 XL, from necessity otherwise I would've held onto it (and I'm currently not impressed with the pixel line). I LOVE having a fingerprint scanner on the back, in screen ones are a gimmick, I don't really like face unlock that much. I don't care for a dual screen, though the option would've been nice. You're right about how overpowered our smartphones are so despite having a better benchmark scores, I'm sure day to day use would be largely the same. But damn, there really is no replacement for displacement when it comes to battery, and even then the V50 battery is pretty solid. As for photo quality, if we're going with auto, why not just side load the gcam app for the V50 and have more hardware at your disposal?
At the moment I don't think I'd swap my V50 for a V60, but that's just me. Marginal improvements with some changes I don't like but obviously still a great phone and nice to see the price being more competitive.
RIGHT! V50 still has so much going for it. IT WAS A MONSTER last year, and manages to compete REALLY well with the V60.
I just use my btr5 in wired mode. 😅The lg series is quite expensive, also the btr5 in bt mode is awesome too. And best part is it doesn't take smartphone phone battery as it has its own battery.
Love that small device, using it with my blon bl-03 and the tin t4.
You deserve more followers man.
😊
Oh, and great viewing as always Mr Bagnell.
Please do a Comparison with Battery Life and Full Audio + Speaker review please as these are possibly the most important feature to me before camera quality if they are similar in photos quality 😊
I am sold. Thanks Juan!
I like the fact you kept following the V series phones.and overall lg phones and you gave them credits where it deserved..unlike other Tech nerds on YT
Between V50 and V60,
If used heavily and for a long time. Which model is hotter?
Thanks for advice.
Thank you so much for point out the refresh rate and battery hate most reviews spoke of!!! Cuz your right it was a problem on the other phones but it's quiet not for Samsung..one reviewer did a follow up review on the pixel 3 months later ..he killed it for no wide angel then said in the video ( I knows it's been out for a while and I really haven't had any situations to called for a wide angle) I was like gasp!!
still one of my most admired tech reviewer.
For someone like me who never owned LG, this is a tricky one. The V60 has the latest Snapdragon 865 chipset and a mammoth 5000mAh battery. Yes the screen is just FHD+ compared to V50's QHD+, but that means longer battery life.
However, I actually prefer the V50's DualScreen case. Yes, it doesn't have secondary screen at the front and the second screen itself is not symmetrical to the V50's screen. But the V50's pogo pin solution means that the USB-C port is totally free for me to connect anything. The V60 relies on a magnetic connector, and just imagine what would happen if you accidentally lost that magnetic connector.
Hmmm... 🤔
I think A is the V60. Looking at the mic(?) shots, A has more grain and it's sharper than B. I can read the model number on A.
ua-cam.com/video/or5SNEQErzU/v-deo.html
From my experience with cameras and my v50, or v45, I will have to say B is the v50 as with my personal experience the telephoto is normally blurry zoomed in.
Time to upgrade. Not 1 year, rather still running a refurb S7. Want The Audio Specs!
Thank you so much for this review. I really couldnt see spending the money that Samsung wants for their phones. I am clearly looking for value and real world performance for daily tasks like emailing, scanning documents, talking on the phone, and texting at the sametime. Moving on from a HTC U Ultra that seems to be having memory issues but otherwise did the job!
So which is the better headphone jack performer, better music streamer
V60
Still using my G6+, i like it when the fingerprint is also the power button, and the buttons on the side is only at one area.
But this v60 development is great.
Im just hoping they get to be quicker on sending those software updates on the new phones if there is.
Yeah but the V60 is several steps back. The sensor has been put on the front - which is the worst possible change they could have made.
6:02 - and if THAT, on the right, is supposed to be the v60, then it's a further step back. Look at how muted the brown colors are in B.
I've been with LG since the Optimus days. Had a few Motorola and Samsung in between, but glad to be back with LG again
5:28 I am a well trained AI. That's no match for my nodes!
One thing I wish you would have done in your video was put the V 50 in the V60 side-by-side outside of the case so that I can really get a true size difference
Gotta save some stuff for the full review...
Hi Juan
Can you please help out
Which one should I get a pixel 4 xl 128gb for 600€
Or
Pixel 4 xl 64gb for 450€
Or
Lg v60 for 600€
Or
Galaxy s20 600€
Personally I feel the s20 has the least compromises
But for some weird reason I don't like buying a phone that everyone is buying 😕.
Which one would you pick if were in my place?
I gotta sa_, you have people bragging about having shot actual Hollywood movies on iPhone. I saw people shooting stuff on a Red Camera with a LG V30 taped right next to it and then they color corrected the footage. It looked absolutely amazing. Pretty much 80 percent there.
Watching this video on my brand new fresh AF V60 phone!
Great Comparison Juan should have also have included in the video for people rocking older V phone users but I upgraded from the V30 and while I do miss the size of the V30 it is a great improvement the size for me its all about getting used to but overall I'm loving the V60 with all the audio goodness and the dual screen!!
Can't wait to get my hands on either one. Seems like a great purchase regardless what I get.
I'm currently rocking the v20. I seriously need to upgrade. It's because I'm addicted to high end specs that I've been disappointed with the recent flagships. Especially ones with those horrible pinholes and notches. It doesn't seem likely but I'm praying the Note 20 Ultra will delete the pinhole. Gr8 vid. 📱
It was Samsung that started the whole punch hole or pinhole trend, so I doubt if they would delete that anyway.
As LG V35 and LG V50 user, I think I go with V60. Only thing you lose is the quad hd panel but win: More battery life, 8gb ram, 865 Snapdragon and more screen.
Just ordered my V60 dual-screen online (couldn't go to the T-mobile store, 😷) Thanx for the review. ✌️
the video i was waiting for🤩🤩🤩TYSM!
Thanks for making this comparison video
in that quick camera test, I'd guess the V60 was A, it was a bit sharper on the microphone so convention would say newer is better.....but for some reason I feel like that might be wrong.
It's tricky isn't it. Almost like people complaining about a telephoto haven't really done much testing 😉
@@SomeGadgetGuy I'm curious, did you ever do a review of the Moto X? I've tried looking but came up short. When it launched it seemed like people slammed it for only being dual core, 720p, and a bunch of other stuff, but in actual use it performed better than the higher-spec'd phones and by the end of its lifespan people loved it.
Anyway, I like that you actually take a deep dive into these devices rather than reading the numbers and saying 'more higher is better'. It is unfortunately kind of a unique viewpoint to your content and makes your channel stand above most others in my eyes.
I also think of the same. The microphone pic is sharper on A, so I'm guessing that could be the V50.
ua-cam.com/video/or5SNEQErzU/v-deo.html
@@SomeGadgetGuy with the update too! thanks lol
watching this on my v20 👍
V20 is still a TANK! I miss that design. And the removable battery... Sigh...
I still have mine even though I do not use it anymore. The V20, G4, and Note 3 hold a special place in my tech heart.
Watching on my V30, but guess what! I order the V60 on Verizon.
Dude, time to upgrade to at least a V30+ lol
I upgraded from the LG G7 to the V60 and I'm liking it. The bigger battery, more space, bigger screen, more ram, faster processor, and 5G blow the G7 out of the water. Only downside is the lower resolution display but, I can overlook that with all the pros I'm getting out of this phone. This will be my daily driver for two years and I'm hoping to keep it longer than my G7.
G7 is the phone for every day.This phone is not,trust me...
Do you still have the V60 until now?
Watching this on my Note 9.
Sold my S10 Plus for it and I love it ✊🏽
Note 9 is the last TRUE note. Nicely done.
@@SomeGadgetGuy that it is...basically the S10 Plus, without any interruptions on my screen and..........
Headphone Jack ✊🏽
LONG LIVE THE HEADPHONE JACK!
Sony Xperia Mark II brought the headphone jack back as well
Lol no no no no u did it all wrong sir or ma'am why will u sold ur s10 + in the s10 is better then the note 9 5g we on the s20 now upgrade in get the s20 ultra
Anybody knows why MKBHD and other major reviewers don't review this phone? I don't like this kind of behaviour. If this was an iPhone, Samsung, OnePlus, even the unboxing videos would be uploaded immediately...
Awesome review again
I got the g8x with the dual screen. Has been awesome so far.
G8X brought SO MANY great improvements. Dual Screen is flipping rad.
I was so waiting for your take on V60
A long battery life is very important especially when im at hike in camp grounds where alot of pictures are a thing. That and sound
Can't really beat the V60 for battery. I'm not out hiking and camping like I used to, but a V60 and a solar charger should basically last forever.
as for the photos. B looks sharper to me and less noisy. I also like the dynamic range better. It changed depending on the photo though so the scene you're taking matters
I am using In Ear Monitor with my LG g8x awesome experience!!
I have a V20 + 6400 mah battery and I just got aware of the v60. If I knew about this phone during black friday, I would have snag one. Well... Christmas sales it is then. LG rarely gets the spotlight on them, but they are very decent phones. Loved my G3, G4 (that I still use as backup) and love my v20.
After watching all your videos on LG V50, im finally able to watch your videos on my new LG V50 haha. Thank you for influincing me to buy this phone haha.
ya I bought a V50 ( V45 ) too refurbished for $175
I’m definitely looking to get the V60, still enjoying and using my V35 though 😊
What I wouldn't give to get another phone in the V30/V35 form factor again...
JuanBagnell I think it’s size and shape hit a nice sweet spot for me. And the cameras seem to have gotten better. My two biggest gripes are the loudspeaker and battery life isn’t great.
Hi Juan, I still have my LG V30 from Day 1. Had the V40 for a short while after it came out, but didn't like the notch concept (still don't, rock OP7 Pro for that reason lol).
Is the V60 DAC Quality better or worse than it's predecessor? I'm getting more audiophile-ey and have been hearing that the V50 offered the last great Quad DAC.
I would have kept the V30 going, but Android Pie has a bug where tracks with low bass have a a clicking sound when played...with no good custom ROM support or LG support, I'm thinking of upgrading.
I'm glad to hear LG is playing by their own rules and not following the crowd anymore. I loved my v10 but the style and design choices of the V30 were meh. I love that lg focuses on its sound delivery and its camera ability. Now if they could get their quality under control they'd win me back.
great great great Tech advice awesome Channel keep up the great work look forward to your next video
I'm going to say that the A photos are the V60 and B is the V50. At least on the microphone comparison. As a V40 user I almost never use the telephoto Lens. It's good to have, but isn't that useful if it isn't integrated well.
ua-cam.com/video/or5SNEQErzU/v-deo.html
In the case of T-Mobile customers, we have to weigh 5G connectivity. The earlier V-series phones did not have it, nor the G phones, but the V60 definitely has it. I'm still using a V20, so for me, it would be a very worthy upgrade.
