LG G5 reviews

Seems like the "reviews" are playing it safe at this point. No one seems to be blown away by the phone just yet.
Mine is on pre order so I guess I will know soon. Despite having returned both G4 and V10 I'll keep an open mind.

I had a feeling battery life wouldn't be too great.

Actually, review are bad....
I don't know why they take the time to test the S7, particulary with the camera. With the LG G5 review, We see so many bloom of samples even with daylight and very few low light samples... When we know the quality of the LG G4 and we read than the LG G is a little better, the reviews don't seems to push the quality of the camera.
Maybe LG don't have give enough money for the reviews^^
For the battery, it's not a problem with QuickCharge 3 or the removable battery or an support battery or .... When i see in the reviews the lack of wireless charging, what's the problem ? We lost more energy to charge an smartphone than charge it himself. Maybe in ten years, wireless could be gone, but if you have a family with all the devices who use actually, the wireless charging, welcome to your bill of electricity !
Finally, a good thing : the speaker for the voice communication. With all my Samsung devices, i find the sound is bad, with Motorola, it's excellent and with LG also.

all these reviews use a Pre production unit with non final software... so we all wait for full reviews after availabilityActually, review are bad....

I prefer Android.Let's stick to the pursuit of better androidIt blows mate, it's like an iphone.
Until you've used the phone 3 weeks all day every day that is the only review you can trust. I can't wait to write my G5 review. My S7 Edge review goes live tomorrow. And just 10 mins after writing the Review my S7 Edge ground to a halt. Deleting photos in the gallery quickly and the phone can't keep up.
So after I thought the S7 Edge was really good I'm now in a dilemma. Probably a bug.
With all the early previews they give you an idea but not true reality. I'm very excited over the G5.

Damn, battery life sucks and the screen sucks too, what are those, this Delta E is highhh 5.6 average up to more than 10 and this low brightness.
FAILED.
FAILED.
But how can you possibly say that?It blows mate, it's like an iphone.
And that other guy that says the battery life sucks. You both telepathic? From the reviews I've watched or read they've said they were pleasantly surprised, again that's on a pre production unit
I'm quite surprise too, it's not comparable to S7 (according to GSMArena results) but still is better than both G4 and V10
A little bit better for the battery life, a little bit. Pre unit or not, it's always the same, when they say it's pre unit it's the final software and hardware... and means it sucks.
I must have watched a million reviews online about mobiles and ever since the "smartphone" came out all everyone says is battery life could be better. I'm personally not too bothered, plus I'd rather have poor battery life on a phone which I can change the battery on. Either I've preordered mine and can't wait for its arrival.
I read up on this phone daily, and though all the previews/reviews make note of the fact they are using a pre-release unit, most seem to agree battery life isn't up to par and the module clip/battery is not easy to remove/replace. I've read/seen previews where they almost thought they were going to break something, and that is not good.
All because it's something new in my opinion. Of course you have the thought in the back of your mind about breaking it. No other phone has ever let you rip apart the bottom half lol.
But always a double edge sword, if it were to easily slide out, ppl would complain about build quality and the potential of the module slipping out on basic usage. The community's will always have their own thoughts. And I agree with the fellow a couple post ahead of me, literally every single smartphone that has ever been announced the people said they wanted longer battery life lmao. If I get an hour less standby time than my buddy with an S7. Who cares. I save 2 hours of charge time by swapping out another battery in 30 seconds or less. Im a huge phone buff and I have to say I'm more than ecstatic about this device.
"LG's G5 Smartphone Is A Giant Leap In Photographic Capabilities Over The G4"

Looks better in automatic mode maybe, but giant leap ?

Giant leap is a bit of an exaggeration, but their examples were quite good. That again was also a pre-production sample they were using. I personally am very much looking forward to the camera on this phone.

Battery performance the same so as usual take all reviews with a pinch of salt. Some reviews claim S7 last a little ,onger but then mention the swappable battery on the G5 so usual a draw in comparison.
