lg g6 My Short review on LG G6

[Andrewtst]

 

Ok is time to do short review on my LG G6. 

• Screen - even though it is IPS LCD, but it still look nice. Nothing to complain on the screen beside the corner not curve very smooth compare with others in market now but still ok. V30 do solved this issue.
• Loud Speaker - very normal and nothing to impress about it, a bit high pitch sometimes.
• Quad DAC  - OMG! This is heaven using it, I give 100% on sound output, it is the best I ever have in mobile. Finally they is a mobile phone can proper fire up my 50 Ω headset.
• Camera - The Wide Camera is cool but... Is it great? Nope... ... G6 camera got a bit similar like Sony algorithm on processing the photo and over sharpening like Samsung. Beside the algorithm processing issue, the white balance and color is nice. It is better than Sony but not latest Samsung or iPhone. I think the best in market now is Google Pixel series camera or HTC camera which looks nice and not over sharpening. G6 camera is good but not great. You might not able to see the sample photos here as it is not in actual size. The photo look OK after reduce size.
• Smooth Experience - It is very smooth, no stutter issue like in my previous S8+. Very well done LG on the UI.
• Performance - even though it is last year Snapdragon 821 but definitely no issue on performance include heavy 3D games. The phone do a bit warmer compare with my previous S8+.
• Design - It is nice look, I more look more like it. Wonder why.
• Battery Life - So so only, nothing to impress here. Heavy user will not able to last a day.

Do I regret change from S8+ to G6? Nope, I too love the Quad DAC already and the wide camera is very cool even though the process algorithm not something I prefer. I hope V30 is far better since it is improve F/1.6 and F/1.9 lens.

 

Below is some sample photos I take using LG G6. All in auto mode without any enhancement edit.

I have the H870DS (the one with the quad dac)

 

and it sounds great. My only complaint is LG's shit update cycle.

 

I'm still on the july patch.

Mine also H870DS, I already at Oct patch, how come yours one still in July patch? Did you sign up for LG World? I forgot it needs or not already. I do sign up that.

I check for updates daily but there never is one 

Did you root your phone? If no then I had no idea already. So far I didn't face delay update. Touch wood.
