Great phone - takes good pictures and as speedy as any other phone I've seen in everyday use (i.e. ignoring benchmarks). Good battery life too. Any it's an absolute steal at the price it's available for now.

Terribly disappointed at this nap. My last two have been HTC's top models, and I've been very pleased with it until it was time to change (not because I was not happy with the phone without changing jobs etc.). This time it became a LG and the initial impression was positive.

Remember LG's last flagship phone ? Most people probably don't, since the G5 was more or less a disaster. The G5 was a modular phone with modules that weren't really compelling; the "metal" body had a thick plastic coating on the outside; and the device had tons of build quality issues, like seams...

A beautiful design; Slim bezels let LG pack a big screen into a tiny body, Always-on Google Assistant voice command, Monthly Android security updates (depending on carrier)

Slow major OS updates; LG is already launching with an old version of Android, and you should expect to perpetually be one to two updates behind the latest release of Android; There's no telling how long LG will support this device with major updates, as previously the company has tried to abandon...

LG has released their sixth iteration of the G series (which originally started out as the "Optimus G"), and it might be the best one yet. Where each LG G series smartphone has come with some sort of gimmick included, whether it was modularity, a removable leather back, a Quad HD display, or tiny...

You may be thinking "That's it? That's the whole review?" (OK, maybe you aren't, but this one felt short to me when I was writing it.) But I think it's a good sort of 'that's it.' The G6 isn't the most exciting phone we're going to see in 2017, but it's a reassuringly competent improvement on the...

Display I'm loving the wider (longer?) screen, and LG's IPS LCD looks as good as ever; This works for me, Battery Good battery life, if not exceptional; If you're in the US, you get the bonus of wireless charging, Ruggedization LG claims the G6 stands up to a drop pretty well, and it's also IP68...

Battery While the battery life is solid now, it's not amazing, and I think a screen of this size warrants a bit more battery just as a future-proofing measure; 3500 or 3600mAh would have seemed more appropriate, Storage 64GB should be standard on a $650+ phone in 2017.

Cutting corners - it's the story of the LG G6's life. And we mean this both literally and figuratively. Literally because its display doesn't have right angles, it's soft arcs instead.

BARCELONA: LG unveiled its G6 smartphone at Mobile World Congress (MWC) this week, although there was little surprising about the specifications of the device, as most of it had been leaked before hand.

The LG G6 finally offers something smartphones should have been offering for a long time: an edge-to-edge display, so it's hard to argue with LG when it claims it's the best screen on a handset right now. Prices are yet to be confirmed but we can expect it to be in the £500-600 region. µ

It's hard to stand out in the smartphone world, especially if your phone doesn't do anything unique. LG knows this and has never shied away from trying new ideas. It was one of the first companies to make use of curved screens , and last year, it released an insane smartphone with a " magic slot "...
