My phone lg g2 works but no display nor light despite that tactile works well and the sound
Hello. Recently a friend purchased a LG G5 and I put it side by side with my S7 Edge. What I noticed was that, while the two phones have the same resolution screens, the G5 seemed noticably better, especially the icons in the main screen. Has anyone else noticed this as well?
I have the LG G4 and was considering the upgrade to G6. Verizon customer.
1. How do the cameras compare? The rear is supposed to be better by all accounts. Front camera is 5 MP on G6 and 8 MP on G4, is this a downgrade in photo quality? Perhaps not since MP is not everything.
2. How does the battery life compare?
3. Is a case important on G6? Seems necessary with all that glass. G4 was excellent for handling falls due to leather or plastic back and slight curve in screen.
Downsides are loss of IR blaster and no more removable battery. Any other losses upgrading G4 to G6?
One more thing, the Galaxy S8 can stretch youtube videos to fullscreen but I get the impression the G6 does not have this ability, is that correct?

I upgraded from a G3 to a G6 on Sprint. I haven't had it long enough to answer all your questions, but I can offer a little input.
The battery life is significantly better. Obviously, there is a lot of degradation given the G3 is several years old, but I went out and bought a new G3 battery a year ago. The G6 gets me through a whole day easy. I do use an Android Wear watch to triage notifications, so I have a less than average screen time on the phone, but I'll go running using the phone's GPS in the morning or do an hour of lifting with the screen on the whole time inputting into an exercise app, etc. The fast charge on the G6 is amazing. It is multiples faster charging than the G3. I also bought a wireless charger, which is great to set on my desk at work.
I think a case is important. The glass back is gorgeous, but I've only seen it for about 10 seconds once while I held it 6 inches over a plush carpet to install the case. I dunno. I put on a Spigen carbon case, and it does not add much bulk to the phone. I had a Spigen on my G3 for three years and it looked like it went through a war. The G3 looks pristine.
Lack of IR blaster wasn't a problem for me because I just took my old G3 and put it in the TV room to use as a remote. The only issue I see with the non-removable battery is getting a few years down the road when its capacity is less.
I don't use YouTube much at all. I did just now pop it open and fired up a video, and can confirm it did not stretch to full screen. I thought I read somewhere that Google was going to work on this on the software end as they're expecting more 16:9 phones to come along. I have no idea what the S8 does.
I haven't tested out the camera much. Honestly, I was amazed at the high quality of the G3 camera and would be happy if the G6 was as good. I take videos of our kid's wrestling matches and share some of the videos with other parents when they can't be there to watch their kids. I have gotten a lot of remarks about how fantastic my phone's videos are (the G3, that is) from people that have iPhone 6's and 7's. Still photos were awesome from the G3, and I should drag my butt out and try out the G6's new wide view.
I can't think of any other downsides. I do like the form factor of the G6 a lot more than the G3. I didn't mind the G3 that much, but the G6 is a lot narrower. It feels much more comfortable in the hand than the G3. It's taller, but that doesn't seem to be much of an issue for me. Fingerprint scanner on the G6 is great. Unlocks the phone instantly. It was a big adjustment to get used to volume buttons on the back of the G3, and now it's a big adjustment to get used to the "normal" side buttons of the G6. The G6 doesn't seem crazy faster than the G3 and the screen resolution is the same. The G6 does look a little sharper and clearer. My Sprint G6 is supposed to have this awesome new HPUE that increases speeds inside buildings, but I haven't noticed much of a difference in LTE speeds. Maybe that will come.
My G3 was stuck on Marshmallow, and the G6 comes with Nougat and Google Assistant out of the box. I haven't gotten into any good conversations with Assistant yet.
Hello,
I would like with advice on buying the LG G6: I currently hesitate between the Samsung S8 and the LG G6.
Can someone tell me if the quality of the screen and the sound is wonderful to use it mainly for multimedia use? I like watch movies in Netflix & Video in YouTube, did they have add this screen ratio, or a tool for have a fullscreen, or it's not supported for now ?
What are the advantages of the LG G6 compared to the Samsung Galaxy S8?
Do you think it is more resistant to shock compared to the Samsung Galaxy S8 with its rounded edges?
Thank you
I` ve got two LG G6.
Advantages - flat screen. Black verson looks like bezelless.
Sound is very good Loud and clear. Compared to my Oneplus 3 and Nexus 6p (6p is louder cause has two speakers)
Blacks and contrast is very good. I loved Amoleds but honestly only at ultra dark room you can see it is not amoled.
Resolution is great - all is ultra crispy.
I have to admit that one of the best Lg`s phone.
And the most important is that i was a fan of stock (google android) but Lg skin is very good. Themes are really geat.
And the last but not least. I thnk Lg G6 is more solid than S8. It has more solid frame and i think the corners are more solid.

Hi SrazZz
Both The Lg G6 and S8 are Beautiful phones with Good screens
However s8's colors are more deep Compared To g6 being a Amoled panel on the s8
G6 on the other hand Has the most Crisp IPS display in the market . It's Not Bad it's really great But not On par with Samsung Amoled Panel
I have a s8+ and Rounded edges make it difficult to hold and It's really slippery without a case
G6 is a Sturdy phone with good grip and Less slippery in hand in my opinion . S8 just slides whichever surface you put it on .
Lg on the other hand has Dolby vision
S8 does not
And For now Only Netflix and Amazon Prime Video support the 18:9 aspect ratio and Do a pretty good job
YOU won't be disappointed in either of them
S8 fingerprint scanner is also more difficult to use than lg g6
lg has a wide angle camera Which s8 doesn't and really has a edge based on wide view photos
However s8 photos come out a bit more oversaturated like You have edited them in Snapseed lol
It's your choice both phones are best at their jobs?
Ok I had some questions regarding these two phones but as you can see in the post below, I have already made my choice.
One question though:
How easy is the screen of the Moto G6 plus on the eyes?
I read it's pretty bright.
I hope it's pretty stable and not flickery, and not too blue-lightish. (software to counter bluelight is not the same)
Never had any problem with Moto X4 or Moto G3 tho so if it's not worse then it's ok.
Ahhh anyway, i think i'll go for the G6+ because it has water repellent coating inside and out.
Not really waterproof; but sometimes a little sweat or humidity in a room can already mess up a phone.
I also suspect that Motorola has better software and hardware quality than HUAWEI/HONOR.
