About the Product
LG V20 - The Smart Phone Pinnacle of Audio, Video and Photography. Record crisp, clear content-even when you're on the move. Steady Record 2.0 allows you to capture sharp, smooth video by minimizing the effects of unintentional hand shaking. Get the best sound with the first smartphone to include Quad DAC for cleaner playback.
The Good The LG V30 almost has it all: a great camera, speedy processor, huge OLED screen, excellent battery life, waterproofing, wireless charging, microSD storage and the best headphone jack on a phone. The Bad Ergonomic quirks can make the V30 awkward to hold. You may miss some shots due to slow camera autofocus. Carrier-specific versions come with annoying bloatware and logos. The Bottom Line The LG V30 is a rock-solid alternative to Samsung’s Galaxy S8 Plus and the Google Pixel 2 XL. If it fits your hands and your photographic needs, you won't be disappointed.

What customers say about "Display"
LG V20 US996 64GB GSM Phone Titan Grey
  • The display is large, bright, and sharp. The 5.7" 500nit 513ppi display is easily visible in direct sunlight.
  • The QuadHD display paired with the 16-MP camera make for breathtakingly detailed imagery.
  • The display is wonderful, bright and large. I would consider this a "phablet". I have small hands so I do have to use both hands.
  • This thing kicks ass. My old eyes are getting twitchy these days, but this thing has such high resolution (roughly 2k), and the display is so clear I can even make out very small text.
  • Im glad i bought the lg v20 because its a nice removable battery sd card beautiful camera and screen display.
LG V30 H932 Dual Camera 4G LTE 64GB Silver
  • The images are by no means poor quality, especially if you know what you're doing and are comfortable using the fantastic manual mode, although the inclusion of the very useful wide angle lens does have a lot of added value as I find myself using it quite often.
  • Great smartphone - ultra light. OLED screen is awesome.
  • Great screen, fast processing, really this phone has it all.
  • The screen, whilst being OLED doesn't come close to those made by Samsung, but it still preferable to an LCD screen.
  • The screen is pretty nice but it doesn't look 100% like an OLED with blacks not being as "deep black" as Samsungs.

What customers say about "Processor"
LG V20 US996 64GB GSM Phone Titan Grey
  • Phone is an awsome phone , makes calls so easy and its 4 core processor brings power !
  • Other then that this phone is really underrated with its dual screen and powerful camera/processor option is hard to beat.

  • Great phone with awesome camera and processor speed.
  • This is an excellent phone, great speed and performance all three cameras are great quality and it has lots of storage and expandable storage too.
LG V30 H932 Dual Camera 4G LTE 64GB Silver

What customers say about "Camera"
LG V20 US996 64GB GSM Phone Titan Grey
  • I'm excited to use the camera more, the V10 camera was outstanding, and I can only imagine how much better this one will be.
  • Although the camera is by far the best I have seen in a phone, and may even be superior to many "point and shoot" cameras, don't imagine that the 18.5 sq mm sensor area can match a 329 sq mm APS-C DSLR sensor.
  • Camera effects are available, including Panorama, HDR, Timer, Cheese Shutter, Tracking Focus, Optical Image Stabilization, Slo-Mo, Tracking Focus, RAW format and 4K video. I particularly liked the manual focus with green fringing on the items in the focus area (focus peaking).
  • Camera is top notch. It does struggle a little in low light, but all cell phone cameras do
  • Camera for photo and video taking is superb for a smartphone and allows a lot of customization in manual modes.
LG V30 H932 Dual Camera 4G LTE 64GB Silver
  • The camera takes really nice pictures, especially with the ability to fit more things in the frame using the second camera.
  • There video capturing capabilities are some of the best in any phone out there, however the only possible the quality of photos, at least when it comes to competing with the latest flagships.
  • The camera hardware is good, the software, not so much. Installing the Pixel camera app improves photos markedly.
  • The camera is pretty impressive yet lacks low light quality, guess Samsung and HTC spoiled me with high quality low light pics.
  • I love the pro camera features, and over all, the size of the V30 is comparable to my previous Turbo 2 by Motorola.

What customers say about "Features"
LG V20 US996 64GB GSM Phone Titan Grey
  • The second screen is by far in the top 3 coolest features of the phone. Always having the time and date available while the main screen is off is sweet.
  • This is the first phone released with Android 7.0, Nougat. That provides an improved launcher, with features mostly borrowed from those hundreds of after-market launchers
  • Not a lot of gimmicky features like Samsung phones....there were a few that I disabled, like the volume rocker shortcuts and answer when move to phone up to your ear. I love the "knock" (double tab) feature. This should be standard on all phones.
  • Videos look great, all message/calling features I've used work well. Phone seems to have plenty of 'oomph' in terms of memory, processing power etc
LG V30 H932 Dual Camera 4G LTE 64GB Silver
  • The software is nice and has good tips, although I wish they could be permanently dismissed. It also has a high quality audio DAC used when listening with headphones.
  • The LG V30 is a fantastic phone for anyone who wants a top knotch performer in every regard, unquestionably the best quality of sound, thanks to the built-in quad DAC.
  • The phone was not fully unlocked for cricket, yet the ad claimed it was. It was a nice phone and my husband wanted to keep it if it would have worked with our carrier.
  • The audio is super impressive and it is definitely a good selling point for this phone.

What customers say about "Power"
LG V20 US996 64GB GSM Phone Titan Grey
  • Love the quick charge feature and the USB type c.
  • Supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0. Charge from 0% to 50% in about 30 minutes. From 0% to 90% in about an hour. A reversible USB-C connector supplies power.
  • The most impressive feature is the power savings. When the screen has been off for a while, the phone "dozes". In this state, network and app activity are limited.
  • The Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 is very fast and convenient as well.
LG V30 H932 Dual Camera 4G LTE 64GB Silver
  • The battery life gets me 3.5 - 4 hours of screen on time. I don't worry about how much I have left.
  • Good phone. I have had no issues with it. I love the battery life!
  • Battery is the best out there....
  • Only the battery life is not that long. It's OK if one puts it on battery saver. Overall it's very good phone and as promised it was brand new. Thank you
