Got a North American H915 V20, ask me anything

[cy88]

Hi all,

I am lucky enough to get a hold of a North American V20, H915 (Unlocked from local Carrier) locally through connections after seeing one on sale on ebay.

I also have a G5 as my daily driver prior to this and thought that it was the most underrated phone in 2016 (other than build quality). I have had every single mainstream phones out there since 2007, including the recently returned exploding Note 7

Ask if anything that you might have about it, and I will try my best to answer.

Cheers.

How's the battery life? I had a note 7 as well and now I'm checking this one out. I think I read it's a 3200m. I'm using a oneplus 3 and I'm honestly liking it. Haha

The first day was stellar, had a full charge when I start the day and ended with 46% by the end of the day. It runs extremely cool and seem to manage the battery much better than the Note 7 and G5. The G5 does well most of the time but it's inconsistent, it could be due to the better Doze as well.

I will monitor it over the next few days and report back.

How's the camera? It seems from media they use the dual lenses in a less effective manner than the iPhone. The wide angle looks a bit weird. Can you give some overall impressions of video and stills?

I too would like to know about the camera, as reviews have only been for the preproduction units. If you could, possibly upload a few of them. Thanks.

Glad to hear that. I had the G5. It was horrible. Main reason I got rid of it. I liked the camera and features though.

Are you able to provide impressions of the phone playing high definition audio files through high impedance headphones? Thanks

So. This.

How is the build quality? Sturdy? Slippery to hold? Awkwardly large?

How's the fluidity of the software? Is Nougat pretty awesome? LGs skin pretty minimal?

How's the fingerprint scanner? Fast? Accurate? Positioned well?

How slow is the camera in terms of opening?

Of the reasons I'm interested in buying the V20, the audio quality and loudness is tops. Appreciate if you can give some feedback on your experience so far, thanks!

Speaker power compared with iphone 7 plus if you can?

 

[galaxys]

Hurry back! How's the Speaker sound, Camera quality, UI Performance, etc.?

 

[chronos7]

How does the v20 sound with wireless headphones vs wired headphones (same,better, worse)? Also how is overall sound vs note 7?

Please tell us the screen on time you get after you cycle through the battery a few times.
