A competitive threat Even taking into account the UI and the device's mild display issues, though -- the benefits of the fast, capable and beautiful flagship far outweigh the downsides. From a product perspective, it appears LG has achieved what it set to do.

Beautiful design; Good audio quality; Excellent wide-angle camera

Display sometimes unresponsive; Battery life middling; LG skin somewhat obscures stock Android

The LG G6 is a decent phone with a great screen, an impressive camera and an admirably innovative design. If you're tempted, though, it's well worth checking out the Samsung Galaxy S8 before buying.

To say that I was less than enamoured with the LG G6 I reviewed a month or so ago is an understatement. I thought the design was near-perfect, so much so that I feel the 18:9 ratio phone is the way of the future, how all phones from here on should be made.

The thought of owning a flagship smartphone irrespective the brand it belongs to, is miraculous. The consumer understands that the product will offer best in class features along with unmatchable performance.

Handy; Great Build; Fantastic display; Good user interface; Swift response; Camera quality is brilliant in ample ambient light; Good battery life; Incredible audio recording

Older chipset; Average audio output; Mediocre selfie camera performance in low light; Major price drop may act disheartening; Corning Gorilla Glass 3 Protection on front

Actually launched earlier than the Galaxy S8, globally, the LG G6 has been often criticised of its last year's processor and the fact that the Galaxy S8 is probably the best smartphone right now. But all is not true. Know here why?

Compact Design; Sturdy Build Quality; Wide Angle Rear Camera; Decent Battery Life

Aesthetics could have been better; LG UI 6.0 is heavy

With Samsung's Infinity Display and Sony's Ultra Slow-Mo, it will not be an easy run-in for anyone OEM in 2017. Away from cheap thrills and gimmicks in the form of modular approach, LG admitted to the those in attendance at MWC that the view pushed the company in the wrong direction.

The G6 is the phone LG needs. It's not quite as gorgeous as the Samsung Galaxy S8 and it doesn't have the excellent camera of the HTC U11, but LG has finally made a gimmick free phone that ticks a lot of boxes.

The LG G6's stretched-out display makes it a pleasure to use, but you should probably wait for the Samsung Galaxy S8

Price; Performance

The LG G6 marks the end of the modular smartphone from the Korean manufacturer. Instead, we get a robust chassis, new screen ratio, improved cameras, and a bigger battery. Sounds like a good combination.
