LG G6 - User Reviews

  • Please tell me how do you downgrade with LG up tool to Oreo? Did you do Factory reset after downgrade or you just did it like an upgrade? Because I'm not satisfated with Oreo and I'm thinking to downgrade to Nougat stock. I don't now should I ipgrade to Pie because battery life is horrible. I also have H870 DSU HKG.

  • same here bro dinnoV

  • With Android Pie officially released for Canadian model H873 on Oct 23, 2019 you now should be able to get the update by connecting to the Internet (via WiFi or Data), go to Settings-->System-->Update Center and download/install the Pie Update. You can also use the link in the article below to download the firmware file and flash it to your LG H873.

  • It should work just fine, I get 4-5 hours of ON SCREEN time, and lasts me well throughout the day. I have been using this phone for more than a year, and have not really seen any deterioration of battery life coupled with upgrade. So either your battery is faulty, for which you should get a replacement and contact your seller. OR Check if there is any rogue application that is eating battery in the background.

  • brother how you updated yours one i own H872 Tmobile version still i didnt get any update nor its showing any update please lrt me know thanx.

  • please can do anybody knows how to update the 9.0 pie on Tmobile send me the link or any process thanx

  • Pie update is available for download as of Oct 23, 2019 for LG G6 H873 (Canadian model).

  • I went to see an LG G6 model H870 today in a shop, everything seemed right but the drawings in the front sticker said 5.7 inch HD and I do know that the LG G6 has a QHD screen. Did anyone buy an LG G6 with its front sticker saying the same thing but the phone turn out to be genuine?

  • I bought lg g6 yesterday and I am impress with the phone my only problem with phone is the battery. The battery cannot last for even four hours after charging it full. The battery is not good at all, please can any one help me know why the battery is behaving like that

  • Please guys l'm uesing g6 version H873 and the android version is 7.0 please how can l upgrade it.

  • hello, do you recommend this phone for 2019 ? is it good, smooth fast and has good camera , thanks

  • I can't do conference call on LG G6 Korea version

  • Portrait mode available after update pie???

  • here :

  • What do you mean? First downgrading to 7.0 and then upgrade to 9.0 directly from 7.0? And what do you mean by "not for all is that valable"?

  • I just update my LG G6 870ds HKG to pie (LG UP metod) and here is my personal opinion: - activating battery save does not dime the screen like in oreo - the navigation bar in some black apps is white and is so enoing - lock screen looks so big and ugly and has som problems whit the swipe animation - my old themes does not work whit pie - benchmarking shows oreo faster then pie - the statusbar shortcuts luck so stupid whit the rownd icons like old ux so i downgrade to oreo and i`m so happy i did!

  • yes the pie update is on lg bridge but it has a problem, its downgrading your phone but not for all is that valable.

  • Has anyone gotten the Pie update here in the states? Deciding on whether or not to get it

  • Lg g6 H870DS update???

  • You must be using a different phone cos the screen is great and largely commented about such. The rear camera's are good, love the way it auto changes between normal and wide when zooming. As for the battery is spot on as expected. If used it wears down (gaming etc). Standby / less use gets 2 days easy for me. What's the problem? Sounds like your battery is old and overused.

  • Some people asks about the best G6 version and faster updates Guys im using G600L south korea version using it in Egypt everything works fine 3G 4G LTE and i just removed the korean apps now using it as my daily driver for almost 8 months nothing annoying me at all dont worry about korean model u wont be locked by anything even far from korea still getting all instant updates same like people in korea being overseas won't effect on you .

  • Yes i have G600L model south korea and i got the update yesterday 7 October and everything works fine And the displays became amazingly crazy beautiful colours are so shiny like amoled and the contens became very sharp and clear like photos texts etc .... Everything works fine here and battery doing super fine since yesterday untill today still 66% Battery improvement 30% better ..... Camera also instant fast focus are incredibly noticeable i can say update with no worries at all ..... My only concern is where to find the dark mode icon lol

  • Thanks LG .....update arrived yesterday on LG G6 model G600L the South korea version and everything Working fine on android 9.0 pie Thank you again

  • Is there any1 in South Africa that has gotten the Pie update?

  • I love the fact that the phone has all i need flagship phones nfc,ip68(water nd dust resistent),typeC,Qhd display,4k and 1080@60fps good video quality,small bezels 18:9,finger nd face unlock,4gigram,5.7inch,good soundquality Down side though 5mp camera sucks big time,lcd display sucks,rear camera sometimes,battery not so good but not that bad either. But overall enjoy using it Love from South Africa

  • Any chance anybody knows when the LG G6 for H872 for the release of Android Pie 9.0, I know Verizon release theirs just waiting for my T-Mobile Software Update.......

  • can you give me the link

  • Get V30 instead. it has good camera, quadDAC, great and large display ( POLED), better cpu and gpu and also very cheap. i got mine on aliexpress for 110 dollars

  • Justin: Not sure what your reply means? LOL ?

  • LG G6 ThinQ, especially Version H870DS+ (can be used Globally) with 128GB is excellent phone but held back by its aged Qualcomm Snapdragon 821. Personally I would recommend LG G7 ThinQ , only slightly higher pricing for good used and you get Snapdragon 845

  • Hi guys please l want to buy LG g6 please help me out should I buy it

  • Can anybody help me to decide? Should I upgrade my S7 Edge to G6? What's experience with android 9? Is it effect camera?

  • just got update to android 9 EU-SLO

  • LOL Like only 1 other Aussie recently

  • Did you get 9 OTA? What country are you in Please?

  • 1). Is the Pie upgrade OTA and has anyone in Australia got it? 2). Anyone know the origin of the LG G6 version 'H870S'? It does not show in GSM Arena Specifications.

  • howz is new software andeoid 9.0. what are the new changes in pie??? pls tell me.....any improvement in processing and battery????

  • On the 26th of Sep I updated my Verizon g6 to pie. It's now faster and consumes less battery

  • Probably around november december.

  • how did you got pie update?? from OTA??

  • When updated in india?

  • Ashok pillar Reliance digital has a sealed lg g6 phone. But u have to deal with the price.

  • Today I received an upgrade to android 9. Still a great phone in 2019 as well.

  • today my lg g6 got a new version of android operating system 9.0 After updating the phone had a bug but after a few 3 restarts the phone worked fine. the new system is very interesting with many new options

  • How is the battery holding I'm thinking of getting one as my back up phone

  • biggest draw back is phone speaker cannot use distorts voice so much people cannot understand me + volumn not nearly as loud as other less priced

  • Please where did you get it @90usd

  • Can anybody tell how to record calls in LG G6 without external software

  • i bought LG G6 for 90USD. best phone ever of 2019

  • This is my best phone. I don't find another phone to replace it yet. So I need suggestion to pick which phone should I buy next. My most specification should have RAM >4GB, ROM >64GB, FM radio, display 4"-5.5", and waterproof. Can U give me that suggestion?

  • Am planning to sell 1.5 years used one no scratches no defect ultraclean condition. Am from Chennai. Do u want to buy it.

  • Hai friend. I am from Chennai, India and I am searching for a new LG G6 since couple of months. Could you please tell me from where you bought the same? Thanks in advance Meenu.

  • Just got hold of my G6(4GB/64GB) today as I got a very good deal here in India. Initial impression is god but the phone keeps on restarting. I've updated all the apps and updates made available by LG including some system updates. Still the phone keeps on restarting without any apparent reasons. It also does not detect the home wifi router which my wife's Xperia R1(low specs but a wonderful phone) detects like a charm. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

  • This phone is just underrated

  • I've lasted 6-7 hours on regular use

  • about 4 to 5 hours if you use it

  • Just replaced my old tiny battery Nexus 5 with this phone and am thrilled. The battery life is excellent, fingerprint reader works great and the phone is quite fast. I rec'd, IMO, excellent value for the money paid for a 2+ yr old model.

  • Hi guys I wana know if i will turn on my data 24/7 the 3g network how man hours it will stands for with full battery?

  • Have to agree with you sadly. I really wanted to like this phone but it's so glitchy, the battery life has become utter trash and the fingerprint scanner constantly malfunctions. Custom ROMs are currently no good for this phone either

  • It has not lost support.

  • G6 is a recommendation, especially for how cheap you can get it brand new.

  • Done with LG phones, I've had a G3 and a G6 and both eventually showed down, started crashing and support dropped after a year and half, while others still received updates (Oneplus 3T/galaxy s7). The fingerprint button on my G6 eventually stopped working altogether. Had a GPad 8.3, only one that never had issues.

  • *Not yet*

  • There is no pie update for g6

  • Hi Guys ... I have a query I have LG G6 H873 Canadian version . When will my device get Pie update? Thanks

  • Read this link carefully and see if you find the stock ROM that you're looking for. Read carefully the instruction and think twice before you upgrade your firmware. If you make a wrong steps you might brick your phone. Do it at your own risk.

  • G6

  • i want to update my device...but the phone keep on saying that the device is upto date...im using a korean version phone and i want to updat this...i will try 2 or 3 times and i will flash the software...its good if some one can help me with thia issue...thank you

  • If it happens after P update try hard reset problem will be fix.

  • Is it possible to use hack like dual sim plus sd card using dual sim adapter. And should I replace my Huawei p10 with LG G6.

  • No worries :)

  • Thanks man, appreciate it ;)

  • I would highly recommend the G6. Maybe I'm just bias because I have one myself but there are so many things better about it. Obviously it's a bit bigger (but thinner) but it is waterproof, will get Android 9, has OIS camera, has high end 2016 specs whereas the X Compact only has mid range 2016 specs, noticably bigger battery and lastly...the display. 720p vs 1440p....the G6 has 4.5x as many pixels :O

  • About to bought a phone for my sister after horrible experience with LG G5. Been thinking to buy either G6 or Xperia X Compact. My sister is kinda like small phones and X Compact form factor seems suitable for her but G6 has waterproofing and superior cameras which she likes a lot too. Can you guys help me to decide which is better?

  • Turn of HDR Mode. Your photos will improve dramatically.

  • Download the Google cCamera. Much improved!

  • I also took it and was disappointed with the quality of the pictures...the pictures are garbage ...

  • plz give me samples how to sign my phone so that it should show full menu

  • At first my phone had a locked patern so after I flash it am failing to find my menu so what can I do?

  • i did not use any particular settings......i used it in auto mode......pictures are very gud.....if u r not satisfiied then do install google camera for LG G6 .....it will give u amazing results.

  • Hi, I use the phone and the photos are not good. What should be the settings for good pictures (assuming that I'm not a terrible photographer) ? Thanks

  • Does this phone have swipe gesture?

  • SIM 2 it doesnt detected... any reason why???

  • yes........both front and rear cam got AI cam function.......

  • I m facing call drop & weak signal issue in LG G6

  • Yes

  • Does the front & rear both camera got AI?

  • its signal issue,common problem in LG phone,

  • i did not understand what yu wanna say.....

  • yes......ofcourse m using google camera....results are better than stock camer..infact awesome results. google camera is a wonderful app......u install it in any phone and u will find better reaults than stock camera app

  • Hi The micro phone of my lgg6 work fine with messenger whatssapp or viber but in normal call people dont hear me good what do you think any one have same pb ? Thx

  • Just head to xda and download the google camera app port for the g6 you should have the best portrait camera app out there

  • LG has move on I suppose. Your request might not happen.

  • hello everyone ...i am using Lg G6 (indian) for 1 year. sharing the experience ....firstly camera is awesome......both .....daylight photography is mind blowing....i have compare it with Galaxy S6 ( wonderful camera at that time ) and Galaxy Note 8 ....the quality is at par with them.....guality is more than its price ...night shots are gud with manual mode.....now second thing its audio....i m using Soundmagic E50C ( higher impedence) earphones.....i can say the output is wonderful though e50c are midranger.......but i m ver disappoint with LG updates. No android pie till now.....no portrait mode till now( though I have recieved june update but only AI cam Mode is there) . ......and battery life is very very bad.....i have to charge my phone twice a day.....i request LG to increse the battery life ...nd give the updates on time spaecially portrait mode which are on 10 k mobiles.....and this is LG flagship.....come on LG

  • You cannot. You either have to pinch in/out or you can slide the camera shutter button left or right. Or simpler: you can just use the tree icons for normal/wide modes if you don't need to be precise.

  • I've had this phone for 2 years and I'm just gonna leave my listed opinions here for others to see: Pros: - Good Quality Dual rear cameras. Specially the wide since its a 120* wide camera. It takes decent shots at day but definitely not at night but the Manual mode is a great help to score amazing shots! - UI is easy. I've have no problems with the UI just that Apps just opens slow. - Screen looks like Oled. Great for movies too. Vibrant colors with Dolby Vision Enhancement. -Audio is Great! A reason why I chose this over S8 is because of audio. Quad DAC and the phones speaker is capable. Also has 3.5mm jack. -Audio recording is great! Concert Mode is useful! Calls too are Great as well. Cons: -Battery Life is average. I get 1-2 charge per day with this one but maybe because I use it always. -Selfie camera is sub par. Totally not a flagship camera. blurred and artificial Idk. In other words "crap". But the rear ones are good! -The phone just cant Play. games mostly lags. Idk since Snapdragon 821 is a capable processor. But it plays not heavy games fluidly with no problems at all. -Screen Burn-in is a nightmare. Avoid using too much white in this phone. It will leave traces on grey\blue backgrounds but can be remedied by using screen filters. The hassle is unavoidable. -The rear Cameras scratches easily! put a protector on it! These are some things that I experienced with this phone. Hope this could help others!

  • I have LG G6+ H870DSU. How to use volume button as zoom in/out in camera app?

  • 100% agreed- absolutely garbadge phone for photos...and after zoom is catastrophic

  • Yes 4g works in sim 1 and sim 2

  • I bought my G6 last Dec and dev ice is great apart from the very disappointing photis taking. All the photos comes out with very poor contrast colors. They are not crisp and vivid and if foggy. Even at night with flash. I tried all settings and same result. Very disappointing with the camera taking photos

  • After last security update (june) my G6 battery draining really fast on 4G, dunno if this is battery issue or update made it worse

  • Oled is way better. LCD has terrible motion blur and looks fuzzy when viewed in a headset

  • great phone with OK batt life and very very good camera performance on both normal and wide angle. How i wish the screen is bigger and also the speaker is louder. Spec wise may not be very impressive but still a very great device though compare to today's low & mid tiers. Sim tray is very very tricky as it's easily broken if handle carelessly. otherwise it's a great phone.

  • Only difference between G6 and G6+ is the storage. G6 = 32GB or 64GB depends where you live. G6+ = 128GB Thats it. Front camera is not that good by today's standard rear cam is amazing.

  • Can you tell me all the difference between the standard G6 and the G6+ version? I want to buy one of those for my long-term daily phone. Also did the front camera got fixed? Cause the G6's standard version is sucks of that. One more, is there a G6's pro version?

  • Hey, how is this for basic to mid-range VR headsets? At 1440p / 564ppi it should be great, but I've heard that OLED or AMOLED options are FAR better, is that really true? What about if you don't care about full 360° gaming, and you just like to check out 180° 2k / QHD / HD+ video content in 3d VR? The AMOLED options are so much more expensive...

  • Q3 2019 - probably August

  • It just refers to Q3 2019 so probably July, August or September for release, but it might take some time to spread globally.

  • Any idea in which month it is going to get the pie?

  • Yeah it's alright. I get about 5 hours screen on time. But one of the features of Android Pie is smarter battery usage so it should improve when it gets that update theoretically.

  • How is the battery timing?

  • Which one is the universal version?

  • Depending on the price, yes, it is still worth it. If you find one for the price you mentioned, then it will certainly be worth it.

  • Unfortunately I cannot help you to find a cheap one, but I can suggest it to you. In my opinion it's very well worth it in 2019. Ive had mine for about 2.5 weeks and it's amazing. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

  • I really want a G6 for about 8000INR (115$).But i can't find a good one at that price near me. Is anyone who likes to help me please come forward. And is it still worth at 2019?

  • If you can get it for a good price....certainly. Used to have a Gcam mod with night sight and it improved night photo performance.

  • So is it worthed having this phone on June 2019 ? How about Gcam night sight or anything ?

  • Man..same here ..but you have the device with you..work on it..it can be beast...you should downgrade to nougat or orea july patch

  • Pls don't update to november patch ..wait till pie update and it's review..you should've stayed in nougat or orea july patch

  • I bought second hand g6 h780ds dualsim with full box and warranty..The things is g6 is greatbut the LG UI sucks...So be in nougat or the best is oreo with july 2018 patch.. Don't update as the camera will be horrible to use...Except this..phone is beast . My g6 and my friend's xiami went in sea water like a dolphin and mine is still alive while her phone is resting in peace...

  • not all variant has dual sim dude and for the dual sim cariant (h870ds) yes.

  • my country is 90-100$ secondhand

  • It depends on what you want in a phone. LG G6 is much more compact and usable with 1 hand, good build quality with IP rating and a very good screen with always on display. The Redmi Note 7 is a very good deal for the price but got a much larger screen. I am not familiar with Xiaomi at all so I don't know about the build quality or the feel in hands. I only know the G6 feels sturdy and strong.

  • Anyone plz confirm Can we use 4G in both the Sim Slots ?

  • Lol but even still it's a great buy. Paid $330 (Australian dollars) for mine brand new about week and a half ago.

  • On amazon I found one used for $80. Kinda makes me mad considering I paid $400 for this phone last year

  • check your local "ebay".. each time there is surplus of refurbished phones or laptops...you can find it in your country's ebay.... for us Malaysian its in Shoppee and Lazada...

  • Lg g6 or redmi note 7? Why??

  • Where on Earth is it only $100??

  • This thing is a steal for $100. Beats every other phone at that price.

  • I'm sorry but you must be mistaken. They were referring to the G6 and the V20.

  • yeah it is hard to tell the difference since the cameras are the same except from one having a wide angle lens

  • That's very hard to say so I'd recommend watching camera comparison videos on YouTube.

  • Best phone for price.. After 3 days.. Screen, sound, quality body, camera, battery, super!

  • Ok. Now, from those two, which camera is the best?

  • Well the G6 has a slightly better processor which might make a marginal difference, but it also has a slightly bigger battery, higher resolution wide angle camera and is waterproof. So if they are both the approximate same price, I'd pick the G6, but if the V20 is significantly cheaper, then it might be a better deal if you're financially limited. But of course it's your choice.

  • Thanks Furionx, please tell me if that screen retention issue happens in your phone. In the meantime, i'm confused to choose between LG G6 and V20. I want to buy one of those to be my main phone. And want to used it for gaming and other hardworking task. And photograpy of course. Please give me an enlightenment. Sorry for bad English. I know English overall, but not the grammar.

  • Hm. This is realy anoying. Similar happened to me last year vaccation. Visiting Salzburg, 5 hr in rain. Soaked jacket. Phone in pocket, sometimes taking photo with wet hands. Then hunidity warning. And next day I charged in car usb. Phone hot like hell. Battrery lost 20% and car usb no more functional. Charging problems and humidity lasted for 5 days, with last day hot day on beach sweating palm..made humidity warning and usb making graohics like cable put in. I was ready to retur to shop. But I like LG. And think they did good job. So forgave this single issue. Mind you.. LG got factory in korea south. Who else can make phone in country with 25k$ GDP per person? :) Though I never swim with this phone, like I did with xperia z3 without problem.

  • I got my G6 two days ago so I can't speak much for screen retention, but personally I'd definitely go for the G6. The ultrawide camera on the V20 is only 8mp so don't expect to be zooming in. Plus the G6 has a (marginally) bigger battery, IP68 and a HDR display. But at the end of the day, you gotta make a decision based on your priorities. So good luck!

  • Hey man. Is this phone vulnerable to screen retention issue? And between the LG v20 and LG G6, which one is better for overall experience?

  • Can We Use 4G or Volte in Second sim slot ?

  • One addition is google lens in gallery and other media options

  • It seems moisture issue and screen retention are dealbreakers.

  • Got a new update today for my G6, its H870 model. Update is about 906MB in size, and only said that this will improve functioning of the device. Seems like a security patch only to me. Not seen any change in device since the update, no visual or functional improvement noticed yet. Will keep everyone posted if I find any improvement.

  • If u still having problems with storage move everything to SD card music, movie , pics, then In storage go to "Android/Data" if u have built up files up to 60 or 70 files Delete it, then some of the files only reappear the apps u downloaded trust if works.....

  • Good phone, unfortunately after getting the humidity alert a few days ago when trying to charge it(seem to get that a lot, since oreo update I think, going from a warm room to a cold room set it off, I charged it overnight and was woken up by the humidity alert), it then would not switch on or charge even if I try pressing the power button and volume down or plug it into charger Not happy, But lg uk has agreed to repair it

  • Hi, I keep running out of storage. last night I had 31/32; when I wake up I am at 31.9/32. I keep deleting, but this keeps happening. I am not downloading, saving, etc anything new...(I can't since I don't have space) When I look at what is taking up space, I can't find what is causing this constant increase. Anyone have any advice?

  • I have this phone and build quality is soo good comfort in hand but waste of money there is no second major update till now and last update oreo has many bugs i have h870ds dual sim india now i want to throw it there is snapdragon 821 processors but not support dual jio sim means not a true 4g in sim 2 battery life is not much more and gaming experience too bad so please don't buy lg product now

  • Precisely why I ordered mine a week ago. Shouldn't be too long till it arrives now :D

  • I'm sorry to hear this, this happens. On any brand. I had 3 different Sonys all with motherboard fails. My old XZ was in service center 3 times during the first week I had it. I know the frustration but it's not LG fualt. There is always phones with problems out there. And Sony is probably the worse brand if I'm going to be honest. Not just me but had friends that had thair phone on service alot and even people waiting in line at the service center all had Sony phones hahaha. Been trying out phones from all brands and LG is one of the most solid ones. But yeah I know it sucks. Can recommend Nokia, Motorola and xiaomi. They make excellent value phones. If you don't want to spend to much. Had an xiaomi a2 before or got stolen. Really good phone and camera was very close to iPhone X only that the phone cost nothing compared.

  • This phone has an excellent build quality, good and strong wifi and network connectivity. Snapdragon 821 still good and takes on many midrange and some flagships from example Nokia that have mediocre processors. Camera is really good and I got this for like 170 dollars and there is nothing that beats this if you don't go up around 400-500 price range. Phones don't get that much better anymore and this is how you know it. Probably the best phone LG released and becouse of the price rigth now it's a good idea to buy it.

  • New software version: V20n-APR-12-2019 (H870s)

  • The battery is too quick to drain. A full charge will only last me around 7 hours (playing NBA 2k for 1 hr and data connectivity usage with average of 3 hours). is there a way to fix this?

  • The sim card tray broke on its own for no reason in side the phone, while getting it of the phone it broke the sd card too, the the phone wont detect or read sd cards no matter what i did, tryed another one and another one no response, restarting and master restting didnt help either, i lost my sd card reading capapility. When turning to loud speaker when on a call, the other person cant hear me, but can hear me on the regular speaker. Latley while i was talking on the phone, it came too hot, and turned off on its own, tryed turning it on using power button, no response, tryed pluging it to charger also no luck, sent it to rpaire center, they turned it on, but when trying the phone, i cannot heare audio from the loud speaker, cranked the volum all the way up to the max, still no audio, but the audio work in the jeadphone jack. I called the repaire centre they said the mother board is damaged and need another one. In my country (lebanon) we have no wrranty, and repairing phones is so expensive. So Im left with a phone with no audio and no sd card.. Its my last lg phone.

  • G6 is a good phone, underrated since the beginning though.

  • Do you have screen problem with g6?

  • LG new chocolate had a 21:9 screen already years ago that was mocked by many including me but now they have such small bezels it looks fine. G6 looks great I like they did not make the bezels on the front black like 99% of other phones only updated LG G6 did have it too. I like my G6 and also my Nokia 6.1 plus but good phones.

  • Going to order the G6 on the weekend. Can't wait for the upgrade :D

  • Get both I have both love em both @ TRUMP 2020 MAGA forever

  • LG was starting with infinity screens, too?

  • One of the most successful sets of LG

  • No. I don't have any charging problem Welcom Good luck

  • Thank you for your answer. I think G6 would be the best choice, i'm not a gamer so i plan to use it for reading and streaming. the U11 is much more expensive and not necessarily better as far as i can see. Hope the charging problem isn't a cummon issue (moisture warning).

  • Is it the bootloop problem ?

  • I used both HTC 10 and LG G6 And i can say definitly don't buy HTC 10 ''worst battery ever'' Go for LG G6 really good phone. Never have problem with it I can tell about HTC U11 because i didn't use it Good luck

  • No, go for HTC. I am using G6, the fingerprint is problematic, Google it.

  • I can't determine my choice between the LG G6, htc 10 and htc u11. What do you recomand?

  • Go For G6

  • Why?

  • Lg g6 after 1 year of use I've been using g6 for over a year and my phone impressions are satisfactory The battery can hold me for 20 hours, using the phone as much as I can. The camera had its updating for a year and I think that the improvement of the last update was introduced with the AI ​​option The performances have not changed and are still working as the first day. Overall, I am very pleased and my next phone is the G8

  • I have this LG G6 since last year, totally miss the G7 in a week launch, but since then I love it using it as a daily driver, and have no regrets. For me it has a good audio using the 3.5 mm jack, decent battery will last a day of typical use no games and no bloatware apps, so far so good. :D

  • No

  • suck customer service and warranty

  • Does this phn have bootloop problem ??

  • Yes, it gets ThinQ with android 8.0 update.

  • I am also h873 user which android version do u have ?

  • Have been using it for about a year now. No issues at all. Responsiveness of the phone, the quality of the screen and the camera are all on point.

  • is it lg g6 thinQ same model as g6?

  • Well, I've had the G6 for the last 2 year as my personal phone and it've been great for me. Fast for email, efficient editing office documents, the camera is really good. Now it has been updated to Android O and it has become much better. The battery is lasting even more, I start the day with full battery and finish it with almost 30% of charge. The interface of the camera improves and other functions were added like the QLens. In summary, now, with the sufix Thinq, it has been the best phone i ever had and I don't have any plan in the near future to replace it.

  • This Phone is not really great...

  • You are better off getting a LG V30.

  • My lg g6 thin Q android 8.0 ,always lag lag lag lthe lg g6 thinQ android 8.0, the most cost-effective phone I bought, the lag lag lag, while playing pubg mobile, wow super lag lag lag, I was upset with lg g6, well I bought e huaweiag,while im in gaming lag lag lag lag,

  • V20 is the best coz I use that, second screen option

  • You can download the Google camera it wil be better

  • Thank you.I buy LG G6+(LGM-G600SP) & i'm not satisfied to camera quality(i'm already G4 user & it's camera superb)please help me for gain camera quality

  • well the service center for lg sucks the parts is taking so long to arrive just purchase the phone for 8 months and there is some issues already

  • suck customer service and warranty

  • what about lG G6 battery life ?

  • I want to get a new LG phone because i have been using G4 for a year now....but i am caught in a dilemma of choosing between G6 or V20...can anyone help me ?

  • Did you check your wifi protocol type. that A, B, G, N? Did you find your wifi with anyone device else? Did you bring your device to a Store? Even a wonderful can have little fails. Give a new chance for this device... it is amazing...

  • G6 plus Better everything

  • Im regular user and the only game i play is asphalt 8 And it give me more than 4 hours screen on time. Which is very good on my opinion

  • what i do buy V20 or G6 plus & why?

  • guys battery cool or no

  • It happened suddenly or what? The way u explained it,i think u do it on a purpose

  • I also own one since 2 months and it is great Only think i miss is notification light

  • Bought LG G6 brand new in the UK for £230 which is a great price for a yesteryear flagship handset. Very well built, reliable and fast despite comparatively low processor spec. Battery life is better than I expected, easily lasts a day with moderate use. I never had bluetooth and WiFi connection issues as experienced by some of the reviewers here. Also, it's schedule to get Android 9 which will prolong its life. The only disappointment is that the UK version doesn't feature wireless charging and neither is the newer G7. LG what were you thinking?

  • Yes, I have a problem with Wi-Fi on the g6 phone (I bought a new one in July 2018) .. the phone shows all Wi-Fi connections except one - my wifi ... I reset the phone and reset the router, and even change SSID - nothing changes..

  • I'm on look out to purchase a used handset G6. Your comments stopped me. But as you've read my name is stud. and I don't retreat. Please guide me what are the issues you're facing. Is it related to battery replacement, hanging, heating, speed, browsing, etc., etc. Your help will be appreciated. Dr. Leon Stud

  • I don't have this phone, but a family member does. While setting it up for her, I found LG's version of Android to be the easiest and most useful, compared to Samsung and vanilla (because of this, I eventually got my own LG phone, a Stylus 3). Something I'm not a fan of is the hardware design. Glass looks nice, but it's really not a practical material for the exterior casing of an electronic device (I'd never buy a laptop with a glass shell). And I imagine this phone would be a headache to disassemble, which will be necessary at some point because all batteries fail eventually. In addition, while the display is crystal-clear, a resolution of 2880x1440 is excessive for a handheld device, in my opinion. From my own experience, 1280x720 is quite adequate for Web browsing and watching videos (perhaps not for 3D gaming or VR, but I don't use my phone for that). More pixels past a certain point, and you'll only increase power consumption.

  • guys i had lg g2 in 2014. and after 2 years my wi fi connections goone anyone had same problem with lg g6 ?

  • Lg g6 is the worse phone,super lag in pubg,im so disappointed to you lg g6,😠😠😠&#­128544;

  • Just tested the "water resistence" which is ip 68 but when I fully submerged it for around 2 seconds I got it back out of the water and the screen flickered and then turned off. The phone still works but the screen is probably water damaged but I will update this post if it starts working again after It will dry it overnight.

  • I enjoy using my G6, but have found a few issues, my SIM card tray broke (I have the dual sim model) and only the US model has wireless charging ( I don't live in the US)

  • It mostly happens when when there is presence of moisture in the port which may cause short circuit. So let the phone dry fully b4 charging. Also keep the cable port free from moisture. If its not working keep in touch with service center.

  • Its incorrect.. Lg g6 still has boot loop problem. I faced the same when i tried to cross flash indian firmware. Also i faced secure boot loop in lg g6 after enabling it.

  • why you dont go to service center.

  • Correct, lol....heats up fast same like LG Nexus 5.

  • I own a Taiwan version of LG G6 H870 DS. Is there is any possible way to get VOLTE enabled on it in India ? I tried cross flashing with Hong Kong & Indian firmware without any success. Presently am using Jio4GVoice app with data on for making calls, which is really frustrating.

  • Well i have the G6 (H873) Im not a heavy user The only big game i play is (asphalt 8) And it does not heat It is great device

  • Hey guys does this phone get heat..i had original korean lg g6 plus.but it wz gettin heat when gaming n all

  • By far the worst purchase I've ever made. It stopped charging by usb within a month then today the screen stopped working entirely. no display, no touch input, nothing, out of nowhere. It's a brick all of a sudden. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!!

  • Do you mean bootlooping? Because LG phones don't really bootloop anymore, they stopped after the LG G5. Plus you can get even a new one for a very low price now.

  • Guys the camera improves a lot with gcam. Here's a video with samples

  • I own one Ans so far there is no problem It is great phone

  • Hi guyz, I want to buy G6 but one of my friend told me not to buy it since LG sets get dead including G6, very quickly. If I c its specs it seems great specs.

  • the phone still works perfectly, just that the sound is gone

  • I dont know about Q6 But if you mean G6. Since you wrote in LG G6 profile *There is no LED notification in it

  • need to know how to activate the LED notification display light on my LG Q6

  • Salt water usually means the end of the phone because the salt occurs corrosion internally.

  • Last night received and installed safety pack V20h-jan-10-2019 size 134MB. Czech republic. Previous pack was V20g 1 nov 2018. Android version before/afzer 8.0.0/8.0.0.

  • Hello guys. my phone fell inside salt water (in the beach). since then, both the audio and microphone are no longer working even after cleaning it and doing hard reset. i was thinking if a stock flash might solve the problem. so, i need help with the stock firmware or your opinion please. LG G6 (LGM-G600L).

  • After update on android v8.0 uses a lot RAM memory about 70% I think it's better android v7.0 for RAM was is about 45-50%

  • G6 is still a great phone in 2019. I had to open up the phone to replace the headphone jack and I have to say the phone is very durable internally (unlike iPhones) and easy to replace parts. LG won me over by their phone durability and ease of fixing. Performance is good too if you spend a little time tweaking the software. Out of the box it might seem sluggish. But if you disable the unnecessary apps, install the Pixel launcher, speed up the animation in Developer Options, then it will feel snappy. There's also the Pixel Experience theme to make it look more like stock Android. Also install the ported Google Camera to get HDR+, the photo quality is superb.

  • Is it true (pie update)???? Please give us a resource Hope that it becomes true

  • I totaly disagree. I have G6+ 128GB HKG and works perfectly without any bug. Workmanship of frame and body is 100% perfect. Muuch much better than Sony and SonyEricsson which I got 2 or 3 devices under the guarantee because of bad quality. Splashes didn't get any problems ever. You guys have faulty phones or you have damaged them. This phone will be perfect if it would have better/ new architecture components and new camera modules. This phone in Optical marine blue color outshines almost every other phone on market. Maybe V30+ violet is pretier. Maroccan blue isn't.

  • Lg G6 in my experience ever moto phone I had broke and my g6 is awesome its also getting android 9.0 in sept 2019

  • LG G6 Better resolution Better processor Better battery Better cam ............. Shortly. Better everything

  • Would you pick the LG G6 or the Moto G6? Why?

  • 400% sure G6

  • LG G6 in my opinion

  • My phone has Oreo and the fingerprint reader still works, I think your phone is broken

  • Hello guys. my phone fell inside salt water (in the beach). since then, both the audio and microphone are no longer working even after cleaning it and doing hard reset. i was thinking if a stock flash might solve the problem. so, i need help with the stock firmware or your opinion please. LG G6 (LGM-G600L).

  • Hey guyz plz help me I m confused What should i buy Sony xperia xzs Or LG g6 Plz help me

  • Great phone wide angle kills it, good screen good perfomance.

  • very good phone i have it very fast but no android pie

  • I think gsm arena battery endurance tests are seriously inaccurate. They do not depict real life usage. I had a Galaxy note 4 before which gsm arena say has 88 hours rating. That phone had less than average battery life. I could only get max 4 hour screen time if i tried really hard by turning everything off and only basic facebook insta usage. This lg g6 now easily gives 6 hour SOT with playing heavy games like pubg. It also gives 8 hour SOT sometimes. And gsm arena only gave it 72 hour rating. I used to rely on their tests but now i cant trust it

  • It might be that your wifi connection is weak now and it dissconnects from it. Got to wifi and advanced settings. Select keep wifi on during screen off option . it may work

  • Using this phone about 13-14 months, facing just one issue,some times battery drains so fast as a exp from 90% to 82% in just 12-15 mins without using the phone and note that no apps running on background. Hope next update enable Portrait Mode. Hope for the best. From India.

  • Last year I upgraded the OS to Oreo, since then... there is no more fingerprint feature. I think that the Android 8.0 of LG disable it and I can't turn it back to the original OS. The phone is still usable and run smoothly, but still feel like an incomplete phone since I cant use the fingerprint feature anymore.

  • hey there, it's been 1.5 year since I bouth my LG G6 and I was absolutely satisfied with its performance, until one week ago. Out of a sudden, the Wi-Fi connection started turn off by itself. All the time. I have already upgraded the software - did not work. Same story with reset to initial settings. Does anyone know what else could be? I am afraid that maybe is motherboard problem so I might have to start thinking of buying another device. For 1.5 years everything was absolutely perfect. Camera and screen the best on the martet (regarding G6 price), battery and sound at normal levels.

  • Verygood concept and verygood price !

  • I have an LG G6 H873 and call volum is great . In fact i have to make it lower than 80% . Because if i let it 100% People next to me can hear the caller talk

  • I bought this phone (used) 2 weeks ago. Its a great device but there is one problem I came across so far. Call volume is very low on my phone. Does anyone else facing the same problem? Plz suggest any solution to that.

  • of course it will... it sounds more like user error

  • Yes you can. Much better than Nougat. Battery last longer.😉

  • Battery is the best on oreo But i hate the left side volume button of g6. Back volume button is great

  • I have the G6+ of ROM 128GB the phone is very good but the charge goes off drastically whenever you hit the gallery, camera and any internet connecting activities. The 3300mAh seem to be totally incompatible or adequate for the phone. You better go for the other unless you are comfortable and sure of staying close to the outlet for the whole day

  • Totally agreed. DO NOT BUY. Also had same problems. This phone don't work in cold weather eather cause of poor quality of structure. If you take it out to -5 degrees it will crack your display.

  • No

  • Is it refurbished product ?

  • About the moisture problem, Sometime I have the same problem, this phone need to perfectly clean for the usb port, try to use WD40 to clean the jack and the port usb,.......

  • I have the same moisture problem and i send to waranty i think to upgrade to oneplus 6t

  • This has to be the least reliable and most buggy phone i have ever owned, it gives me moisture warnings despite not having been near any source of water and commonly just refuses to charge even without the moisture warning,it will even start charging then halfway through the night stop and just drain itself. The sound also has issues that require me to restart the device all the time. Don't buy this phone.

  • I baught an LG G6 H873 / android Oreo . 1 week ago . I owned an LG G5 for the past few months and it was great except battery . It was average (im not heavy user) In LG G6 Everything is working great . NICE design. Bigger screen Battery is very good Face unlock and Fingerprint work very fast The only thing i miss in the G5 is the great camera ''specialy selfie cam'' (it is better than the G6's cam . But it still good as well) + the notification light (there is no one in the G6) Shortly the G6 is great phone and i recommand it Again . Im not heavy user

  • Oreo gives you a slightly improved battery, QLens and minor improvements overall.

  • I own g6 h870. Should i upgrade to oreo??

  • g6+, different carriers many diffeerent reasons.

  • Why is there a huge gap of price between different models though they have the same specs? (270 euros to 850 euros)

  • Same g6 version Same update

  • If i would guess, I'd say the size of the update is due to gathering all updates which were not given from previous months. I too have received something similar but close to 830mb on European version. Sadly, LG itself does not know which path to take... although they announced an LG software center for faster updates....and again fails to deliver, although they only have a hand of devices on the market. Shame LG....

  • Hi all, Received a 723mb update last night but no visible change after upgrade. Seems like a security patch, but isn't 723mb too big to be security patch only? Anyway the security patch is now 1 Nov 2018, and software version is updated as well. Let me know if anyone else received similar updates. My device is from Saudi but m using it in India.

  • there is a gaming setting...change it to max frames and drop some ressolution....also check developer settings and play with the gpu options and see if ti changes...dnt forget about Free Ram,,,use Greenify app to force stop the apps when u play...do this and it should be fine

  • backup your data and do a format....i fixes prb mostly of the time...mine had some bugs after update did the format and all good

  • There should be a section for cons and pros. Everyone came here to complain about it's phone. I bought this phone in Oct2017. Got Oreo. No problem. I think that 1 in 10000 devices have problems. That is probably same for every company. Why nobody write: Have this and that problem. Return my phone. Got it fixed or got new one. Where do you people live! Everyone is so agry with their phone. (bad luck) Ps: i am a heavy user. Drain my battery fast. Same as when I've bought it, same as now

  • I am using lg g6 last 5 months.recently i am ffacing many problems.likes,when i open an app then report unfortunately stoppe.

  • It's a really nice phone but an annoying bug is that sometime it'll randomly complain about the SIM card tray not being in all the way even though I don't touch it. Just a nitpick

  • Great phone

  • Why don't the non us versions have wireless charging?

  • lg g6 vs galaxy a8?

  • It seems most problems happen after updated to Oreo. My opinion, never update to oreo, or update and root then use Xpose to force any game or app runs with your customize resolution.

  • I bought lg g6 but five months ago I used every game lag lag especially in the pubg mobile,what a shit break

  • downgrade it to nougat

  • Never getting LG phones again. My wife and myself have the LG G6 for over 1 year and a half now and we both have problems with it. Going back to Samasung. Just ordered two Samsung Note 9`s...

  • Why people comlaint about lg g6 its owsum phone i havnt seen sach a great phone from camera to display evrything is just gorgeous its lcd panel but its still better than most phones out there plus quad dac

  • Bought this (second hand) phone few days ago. Great phone. Almost everything is great. Unfortunately VS988 cannot be rooted this time. Is there anyone here successfully root/install custom ROM on VS988?

  • Hello, Whether it will work on the version H872 in Europe on 3G and 4G LTE? Kind Regards

  • That's because of the sensor in front of the phone when it senses that the surrounding is dark it will adjust itself and make the display a bit low, but when it senses that the surrounding is bright it will adjust the display to a brighter one.

  • This problems I encounter it too when I use LG V20.. IDK why this happen in LG phones..

  • I have LG G6 H873 Canadian version.. Why my Antutu Benchmark was only about 97k?? And it feels so laggy for play PUBG Mobile even in lowest settings.. Before I update to Oreo my phone still good for this game.. But after update to Oreo it started so laggy for playing game, even for NFS No Limits still lagging sometimes.. Can we change the screen resolution to the lower than 2K.. I think the problems was in screen resolution was too big for this kind of old chipset.. Can someone help me?? I don't have any problems for the others except for playing games like PUBG Mobile.. Like the camera & QuickCharge 3.0 was so good~

  • I would like to buy v35 or v40 because of front camera, wireless charging, voice recognition, graphy in camera and cine-mode. But problem is that v30s+ has 256gb which I like more than 128gb in g6 but v30s has the same 5mp front shooter. Where to buy v30s+, v35+ or v40+ in Europe? Why is only available v30/v30+? Best looking phone is v30+ violet lavender, someone will tell that is morrocan blue one. Do you agree?

  • After g6, what phone would you like to buy next?

  • I use regular and wide angle camera from this video link. It links on XDA. You can try it.

  • Can u pls give the link

  • Hi, i'm using lg g6(873). I m having a screen issue. Both top corners of my phone gets dark(& its getting darker day by day) while charging. After using a few minutes my phones display gets back to normal.i bought this phone with my hard earned money.So i don't know wht to do.pls advise me someone.

  • Yes, G6+ H870DSU has fm radio with recording. You can choose just recording or recording without commercials.

  • Pretty good phone for these money. Fits well in hand, looks pretty good, good camera at day time, fast enough and battery is good also. But there are some minuses also. Extremely bad frontal camera, quite dynamic, you wont see anything on your display in a sunny time, display cracked on both of my G6 phones during first months of usage (never cracked on G2 and G4). So this is a pretty good phone especially for his price and a very good phone if you are not planing to take a lot of selfies and listen to the music through your phone speakers.

  • For a very good video camera in a phone you should go for the V30, which at this moment is not very expensive anymore. The G6 is a good phone however but I don't know about the video quality.

  • Uses corning gorilla glass 3, dates back to 2014, lumia 535 uses gorilla glass 3

  • try looking on xda the google stock camera adapted for the G6, it's get really better.

  • For all the ones that are a little disappointed with the camera, try looking on xda the google stock camera adapted for the G6, it's get really better.

  • Today mark my 1 year with the LG G6 and i have to say this phone is amazing. I fell bad for Samsung and Apple users who got their phones slown down, with LG it's truly not the case and particularly since Oreo the phone got faster and the UI animations got improved. The G6 is the good friend who will always stay with you no matter what but obviously it's not perfect. The battery life is a bit meh, i usually got 4-5h of screen usage but it's still better than my last phone (iPhone 6s) and the camera is not that good but I love the implementation of the wide angle camera. The things i love: -The screen is just amazing and super sharp compare to the iPhone one. -IP68 -Despite being a SD821 it's still super powerful, it launchs all my apps and games without problem and i never feel that it was slow. -The size is perfect, not too big and not too small. -The durability, it falls 4 times on the screen but never shattered and I'm using it without a case since the first day and it's still clean.

  • Have it since august 2018 (previous phone Sony Xperia ZL). It took me some time to get used to it. I am a huge fan of sony but decided to try something new. I was expecting more from the camera but so far so good.

  • So i bought this phone on sepetember 1st, 2017. I've been using phone for everyday use for 1 year, till now and i can say that it has a very good screen,processor- generally speaking, very good phone for gaming. But the major minus in this phone is the camera, it is probably the worst camera i've ever seen in high-end phone, and another minus is that the battery-lasting is kinda short, if you use it very active it will hold half a day- or day at it's best.

  • Yeah! Hi-fi quality head phone get when you buy from gcc

  • Could it be possible to have normal emojis? I know this is not a major issue but it bothers me so much! I dont have alf of what i use to have on my samsung and they look terrible. Anything to do?

  • Hello Does anyone have FM recording on their G6?

  • I hope LG will continue making phone like G6 with this right screen size and without a notch. Why is everybody making larger phones, it's difficult to put it in the pocket and not to forget that ugly notch too.

  • my lg g6 camera spoiled with scratches.is there any solution.and how to connect usb drive as if connected shows charging and memory card spoils.please any one help

  • nope, I can't find any text on the screen while capturing any object,or popping qlens on camera interface,but i have a bright mode already

  • Raj I use the Sony MDR-ZX310AP and it is quite good. It's a headset because I dislike in-ear. But sony has those also. Jbc also good.

  • any one can give me a suggestion can i buy g6 in this time and witch one model is perfect h870 or any one other and also you just give me his bettry timing usage details

  • any one suggest me good earphones for lg g6

  • what website can i download software to upgrade oreo my H873?

  • I cannot say it's awesome, but at least for me it does the job done - gives me a memory to hold on to!. A true beast for video would be V30, and if you find it at a good price, don't hesitate to buy it..one of the best out there when it comes to video.

  • I really need a smartphone with good video quality . I will use a camera stand for it . In my country Lg G6 is just about 200$ . i will be happy with 821 and charge my phone twice in a day . So , basically i want to know how is the video quality is and can i focus on subject manually? Please reply (Thanks)

  • this morning, on my H870, I've received August security patch update. Roughly ~130MB. Software Version V20c-EUR-XX.

  • owsum phone who cares about not having sd835 821 is plenty fast screen is the main attraction its just stunning camera 10/10 only disspoint is the battery life hope lg will resolve in next update..

  • Does this have stereo speakers?

  • You can understand how is lg strong after years. After 1 year although my work always in water its now in perfect condition.

  • You guys must be unlucky as hell cause seriously my G6 works perfectly after a year and fall maybe 4 times but never crack. I'm impressed that the sd821 keep working so well, i can play to whatever game i want without having problems but the battery is a bit meh...

  • No. Don’t do it. I’ve had mine for 9 months and suddenly I couldn’t connect to my cell data or WiFi. After going to my cell store 4 times and my issue being seen by even the manager, they performed a warranty claim. JUST got the new phone LITERALLY a few hours ago and it no longer works, either. Same issues. Google data and WiFi connection issues and you will see this is a problem with this phone.

  • After two months, the screen broke completely, even with a screen protector. I did not even drop my phone. I could not text or call. I send it to a LG repair company, only to be told that my phone was not covered by the warranty and that I had to pay 35$ to get my phone back. Never going to buy anything LG ever again.

  • I had a problem. This "military grade" phone, and the promotional videos all arround tht Internet, are a bleff. Yes, after 2 days of purchase, the camera cover glass shattered without any cause (no hit nor pressure at all). A quick search revealed that indeed lots of people are complaining their camera cover broken without cause. Of course LG pretend they don´t know about this flaw and denies to honor warranty because a "physical damage caused by user". Please don´t buy without researching about this in the net.

  • You can't find any AI option in camera, but if you capture image example food, in gallery you will notice the food icon at the top right of the image.

  • Got new update few minutes ago. now my phone is on v20c. but still 8.0 wil post if there are any changes

  • I have had this phone for almost a year. Like the camera a lot. Battery life is average. Had the sim tray problem - new one is supposed to be shipping from LG. LG won't supply the bootloader unlock code for this model, so keeping the OS updated will be impossible once LG drops support.

  • A lot f u just dont realize. these companies intentionally mess up the os with new updates so u can buy their new phones!!!!! Like apple. They did that. Never updates new firmwares!!!! Quit wanting new updates.

  • Had g6. Perfect size. Not too big or small. But average battery life didnt cut it for me. Switched to v30. Best phone. With moderate usage, it can last almst w days.

  • I would like to know is the model US 997 and g6+ can be used at the 900 mhz 3g band It is not clear at the article Please somebody help me

  • pretty good

  • Hey man, I'm in same situation currently, purchased from ebay a month ago and yesterday it prompted me network locked. contact me at xda, we have to discuss on how to come out of this deep shit.

  • I bought H870 variant in July. Now after almost two months, there are dark shades in the top two rounded corners. Anybody else face this problem? Any solutions?

  • Nope there is 32/4gb ram, 64/4gb ram and 128/4gb ram. The last one is the G6+ and the 64gb is the H870DS.

  • Thnx bro, i got it. Is there any g6 with 3gb if ram?

  • Hey All, I have bought a Lg g6 Unlocked phone from ebay India a month back . Its was working fine UN-till yesterday . Mobile suddenly showing as Network locked . Kindly help me to resolve the issue .

  • If you want LG G6 then H870, H871,etc different vairiant for G6 .. G6 has MSM8996 Snapdragon 821 adreno 530 .. make sure you buy buy G6 not other modal online...

  • Which model of g6 is this, i unable to find any info on web. Showing 3gb of ram in listing. In product info it shows M700dsk, which is for q6. Confused.

  • Battery is awful after oreo and phone is sluggish

  • Finally i was able to upgrade to android oreo after over a year of using this phone. Better late than never i guess.

  • How is LG's record of providing android os/security updates to its smartphone recently? Isn't G6 got Oreo very late...specially when Pie is frw months away from google?

  • even my LG G6 battery performance has reduced to 50 to 60% to ealier status after oreo update.

  • Lg g6 much reliable device than s7

  • i updated my lg g6(h870ds) in AI features but i can't find any AI on camera setting,but my lg g6 already lg g6 thinq on booting, someone help?

  • Only the North American variant (Canada/US) supports wireless charging. Select Asian markets (China/Korean, etc) have a Quad DAC but no wireless charging. Every other market does NOT have wireless charging or a Quad DAC.

  • What about front camera is ok or bad 5 mp f 2.2!!!! Lg g6 or samsung galaxy s7 ???

  • Yes i wanna know when new updates coming for lg g6 H872 Especially the Vibration Strength need to making more louder and lagging after Oreo, is LG G6 is gonna get Android Pie 9.0.....???????

  • Before Oreo i used to get almost( ~)4 to 4.5 hours of screen on time for average to heavy usage.But now.... After Oreo i am roughly getting 2 to 2.5 hours for the same usage pattern. My doubt is, is it supposed to be like that? Or am i the only person lucky to have this wonderful Oreo update? (I live in india , hence i am using LG H870DS). THANK YOU LG for this wonderful update by the way..

  • And how about updates?

  • I purchsed LG G6 one year age. but i had faced a problem with its SIM card Tray. which was stucked inside. and when i tried to remove it. it cam out by broken. Tray made of plastic. not a metal. now i am facing a problem of SIM tray, which is Un available in any outlets. and if available on line shopping. quality is worst..

  • the lg g6 is currently on android 8.0 and was recently re branded to lg g6 thinQ the galaxy a8 is not better than the lg g6 in hardware and software the a8 is still on android 7.1.1 or atleast in canada

  • Hiya. I plan to get the LGG6 but very concerned about updates. What Android version is the phone right now? And would you say LG is committed to monthly security updates and the new @Android 9 Pie? (My other choices of phones are the Galaxy A8 and the Moto G6 Plus).

  • downgrade it

  • I was looking at a YouTube review video about tips and tricks with the G6. have a look at some YouTube videos about the G6 you may get some help about optimising your phone and increasing battery longevity. Just hope you find something.

  • Hi, I'm using G6-H870DS for last 4 months. Last week I got Oreo update and from then my battery is draining very fast. If even no apps are on and no WiFi / Mobile Network is connected, it drains 30-35% Charge within 4-5 hours in idle mode. What should I do?

  • does lg 6 h870ds have 3g/4g on no.2 sim or is it only 2g?

  • Hi, My LG G6 H873 can't show update OS to Oreo both on phone and LG Bridge. It can't find any update. Any idea??

  • Got a g6 as a backup phone today. Used to have g3 before and it supported wireless charging but my g6 isn’t What should I do? I am from AUSTRALIA and it’s an Australian variant from telestra

  • Oh my god yesterday i was walking on the stairs and suddenly my G6 fall, he fall on maybe four stairs and without a case and guess what... nothing it still clean. Wow i'm impressed by the construction of the phone. At the store now to buy a case XD..

  • Only the H870DS has it, from what I could find out

  • Bro how bout HiFi dac or Quad Dac? Is it supported?. Thanks in advance

  • I too have H870 and it's already on Oreo for close to 2 months now. If you still have warranty, take it back and see what can be done.

  • I am using this phone from one month and I am totally satisfied with my phone performance. Pros 1. IP 68 2. Good display 3. Old but still better processor 4. Back camera is very good Cons 1. Battery (but considerable as display is QHD)

  • Version H870 for Global Market is still on Nougat LG Bridge does not update the software and the is not Bootloader unlock way yet for that model...

  • LG G6 or Mate 9? i don't care for benchmarks , i want a swift device with less problems , looks amazing , has a fun UI and got the better camera

  • Nah, dont have it. Did you try dried charging port with hair dryer or something?

  • So I got a h815 G4...I read mixed reviews about the G6 good ones and bad ones but I'm sceptical about it...do you think it's worth it?

  • Thank you for your comment! :D

  • sorry no. wireless charging support is only for us models.

  • If i get the lg g6 h873 model, can it be used in INDIA, i see some bands in india are not supported by the device as per frequencycheck site

  • My wife got this phone from Koodo in Canada and it already has Oreo on it.

  • bro mine is LG-H807s also, may i know if its Qi wireless charginf support? thank you

  • guys help, i just want to know if my G6 is wireless charging support? my LG model is H807, thanks in advance

  • this is true with me as well...

  • since the oreo update on my lg g6 indian version i am facing this stupid issue of charging. It some how detects moisture on my mobile and blocks the fast charging, this message appears and get away randomly. This definitely is a software bug as this issue started since i updated to oreo. i hope lg fixes this.

  • Yes. I've had no issues with it. Ive had Oreo 8.0 on it for the last 2 weeks and no issues. Its a great phone for me, ticks all the boxes I need for Camera, Video, Browsing, Music etc. It keeps giing down in price and I think is great value when stacked up against recent Mid Rangers.

  • Would you recommend to get LG G6 in 2018-2019?

  • Have you tried LG bridge ?

  • Have you tried LG bridge ?

  • Please! I havn't found the OTA oreo. My device is h873 canada. How can i do?

  • Read at the back of your charger and look next to MADE IN CHINA BY ***** if it's by pentelcom it's an original one and it's ok But if it's by dongood or sunlin it's a copy Fake one you will need to change it quick

  • whether the charger is warming when charging the phone

  • Do you charge your charger when charging your phone?

  • Just under a year in and I am very happy with this phone, here is a breakdown of my experience with it. The 8 main things I really like about this phone are... - Wide Angle Camera. - Water and dust resistance (ip68). - Great Build Quality (MIL-STD-810G compliancy). - Flat Screen design. - High Quality Audio DAC. - Headphone Jack. - Extra Storage (SD card) support. - FM Radio built in. Design.... The screen is flat, not curved. I prefer flat screens as less prone to getting knocked and cracked and easier to put a glass screen protector on for extra protection. No camera bump on the back. Fingerprint Scanner / Power Button on back. 5.7” screen with an 18:9 Aspect Ratio. Height 148.9mm x 71.9mm width x 7.9mm depth, 163 gms weight. Glass back and front with a metal frame. Note: I have the Black one which has the top and bottom of the screen also black. Personally I like that look better when the phone is off as the whole screen looks black (Just a Personal Preference). Build Quality... I have a screen protector and a case on it. I have had one major drop drop from about 1.5 metres and no cracks or scratches so far. I put this down to the Great Build Quality (MIL-STD-810G compliancy and the phone having a non curved screen). The odd time I’ve got it wet in the rain, no issues, I’m sure the ip68 water and dust resistance helps here. Screen... Clear and bright, no issues in sunlight. Performance... Very quick and responsive. My main usage is Browsing, YouTube, Music, Camera (Still and Video) Messaging, Texting, Calling, Notes, Maps, Calendar and Email. No issues with any of these. Battery... Easily gets me through the day. Fast charging works well. Charges quickly to 90% then at normal charge speed for the last 10%. I charge it overnight. Note: There is no wireless charging on this model (64GB/4GB RAM with the High Quality Audio DAC). (Wireless charging is available on another model without the DAC). Camera... Photos and videos are great. Love the 2nd Camera Lens set up - the Wide Angle - I use this so many times in order to get everything I want in the photo. I’m not a big user of the Selfie Camera, the odd one I’ve taken looks fine to me. Music... The High Quality DAC really makes a difference when connecting up through the headphone jack. Bluetooth works fine on my Wireless headphones. Through the speaker is good, however not much bass. I have solved this by using the custom setting on the Equaliser and set the bass to maximum (I set the far left bands (16 and 230) to max. With this setting the speaker sounds great. (Through headphones I set the equaliser back to Normal setting otherwise it’s way to bassy). The FM Radio works great, nice interface. Storage... I took my 128GB SD Card from my old phone and put it in the G6 for all my music, photos and videos. I save all new music, photos and videos to the SD Card. If I ever do need more storage I’ll probably get a 256GB SD Card, although I can’t see the need for that for a couple of years at least. The 64GB in built storage I keep free for applications and everything else. No issues with either. In summary... A year on and I am very impressed. The G6 ticked so many boxes, a great device for my needs.

  • i did the up date will give you my feed back in 3 to 4 days for the moment the phone does not lag and does not heat but let me some time to judge the battery

  • That's the problem with refurbished phone. I bought mine when it was new.

  • The G6 has never been the best in term of battery endurance but mine make 5h or 5h 30 and ends up with 15% with normal usage but i haven't seen a real change in battery life with Oreo.

  • i'm like a nomade i have all my data on my SD card and in the cloud so a factory reset is not an issu many user are complaining about battery life after updating their phone thats what i'm afreid of cause i hade another lg g6 ( refurbished ) but they didn't put the glue water resist glue and i used it in the watrer so the phone was capout but i reopen it cleand it and it tuned on at that time i applied the oreo update and yes the battery life was 3 to 4 hour max i don't know if it was the update or the water how killed my batterie

  • I'm on oreo but seriously you need to update, since oreo the user experience is way better than before. But first put all your stuffs like musics, photos and contacts on the cloud because sometimes you will need to make a factory reset like i did but you will not regret it. My G6 is the H870 but since the update via LG bridge is H873 like yours.

  • HI i have the LG G6 H873 and I get the update notification to OREO but I'm afraid of having the battery draining problem when I will update it your opinions on the battery draining issu after the update to oreo ??? THX

  • Only you in this world who have bootloop problem in g6

  • Now it's time to give some reviews after updating to Android Oreo...Battery back up is slightly improved+Some minor visual changes+Some extra features added too. Slightly Camera performance improved and surely no lagging till now. Overall good Update. Hope within 2019 it will get Android P,hope so.

  • Yah.... Its now 3-4 days I updated the Version.

  • LG G6 for sure, just switched from Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 AI to g6.. they are like in same price range atm and LG gives so much more than Xiaomi (battery life tho for xiaomi), got my g6 because of cameras.. I had LG G4 and it produced awesome pics so does this g6 too :)

  • Lg G6 T-Mo or recent redmi note 5 Ai / Max Pro M1?

  • After Oreo update battery is draining heavily.. NO matter what ever you try or stop backgrounds running apps. It drains.& drains. Even i tried formatting my mobile buts it's still the same. Didn't expected this much of drain from LG.. MY Mobile Was better without update.

  • Seriously?! Mine didn't. It still LG G6

  • Same version. Getting oreo right now. 1.8gb Gonn

  • Finally,My Lg G6 updated to LG G6 THINQ!

  • Just got the Oreo update notification on my LG G6 in India. Still I haven't updated.

  • Got my oreo update last night, it was around 1856MB in size. Phone feels alot faster and more fluid now. Can't comment on battery life yet but not many changes with the update. Phone still feels the same with some very minor visual upgrades. I am from India but my phone is purchased from Saudi.

  • I have lg g6 since last 6 months i have detected moisture in usb port that message shows in mobile and charging is issue any body have such issue and i have sent in lg customer any body have such probelm and have they replaced with new phone i have heard in market i am from india

  • Why i still not get oreo update

  • oreo is released for g6 H870S. you can download it via lg bridge

  • Its not worth, having this phone for almost an year now. But no software update, January was the last time I received security patch. LG is really far far away in terms of supporting their devices. Will not buy any LG again. First and last mistake

  • Bine of them...wait till decembrie Andreea u will get them g7 thinq for 450 $

  • Maybe it's a pre-production unit?

  • Lol i have had oreo since may

  • Hi,in FlashingDroid youtube channel,lg g6 quad dac full review english video youtube,in 12:02 lg g6 shows same as mine lg g6 not for sale written on upper right corner bezel,what is mean by that?is it final production unit and also compatible for future ota/security/software updates ?

  • I have lg g6 870s the UAE version & I'm waiting oreo update till now. Any one know about that f***ing lg's g6.

  • I'm glad that LG improved their UI since the Oreo update because on Nougat their UI was just Terrible!! I was obligated to use Evie or Nova launcher to make it a bit clean but since i've update to oreo i'm on their UI and it's very correct and smooth now.

  • Bro, you really like crying over small stuff apparently lol i have both the oneplus 6 and the lg g6 at home, the op6 being mine and the g6 being my mums. when i got the lg g6 for my mum i was using the oneplus 3t the device was quite good for its time and i know for a fact that its working really well still the ram and the rear cameras and the storage are pretty good for a 2017 phone which by the way was one of the first to introduce this design language so if you are bitching about a device that's over a year and a half old irl i think you'd be outta your mind fam, plus the device has obviously steeply price dropped now is like 27 k inr bro, i personally think the processor the cam and the ois at this price point is good, even though the processor is quite old its good at the price point and only power users would know the difference and well if your'e buying a 2017 flagship in 2018 its some of the things you miss out that you have to live with man.

  • I own LG G6 (H870) for almost a year now and had no problems with it so far. On 1st June it got Oreo update (8.0.0) and now works even smoother and faster than before. The only issue I noticed from the last update is battery life... I've uninstalled all battery draining apps and disabled running in background for some of them, but still, no significant effect. Otherwise, it's a great phone and my third LG in a row (had G3 and G5). I'm quite sure the next one will be LG as well.

  • It is useless & hopeless brand I ever seen for mobiles. Me too in UAE & android version is still 7.0, no information is provided by LG care till even after continuous follow ups through email, whatsapp, twitter, facebook and so on. After sales, camera, built quality sucks totally for LG g6+ so called flagship

  • You are spsulaly Right bro ,this is my first and last phone from lg brand...very disappointed

  • Very bad...... Don't think about lg g6 and other lg phone go for other..

  • Don't buy lg phone...they didn't provide latest software.....ho for oneplus 6

  • No wait for a month again . ..

  • Why lg mobile delay software updataton for lg g6 last 8 months, other side masure top mobile company provide latest update even they have no.of models...lg have less Mobile phone in market but they can not takecare his customer and not provide latest version in software.. lg g6 is a 15 month old device and since running android 7.0 not latest android like 7.1.1 or oreo 8.1,8.1 why.....if you have not enough time to prepare new software....pls don't make new mobile phone if you stay in mobile market like one plus ,samsung ,sony ,xiomi and other regularly give update to customer and take care your customers... Otherwise thinking about nokia....

  • Pls do not expect Oreo update any time in India. Difiency of LG kind of OEM's is driving sales of One plus phones in India. Buoyed by this One plus has announced their OP3/3T will get android P, wihch is a third major OS upgrade after Nougat and Oreo. LG exactly this opposite way, i.e., if they delay OS updates to old devices, their G7 will be sold. I am saying this practically as I am using LG G6 and One plus 5, both phones released around same time in India. LG G6 has not even received 7.1 update whereas OP 5 is on 8.1 and received so many updates. But once trust of customer is lost, it is difficult to build. Imagine V20 the first phone launched with Nougat in Sep 2016 is yet to get Oreo update in Aug 2018. No OS update in 2 years, horrible. If people like us can stop buying LG devices, may be then they realize their mistakes. God save LG mobiles in India.

  • Any update available for Lg model h870dsu

  • From India,till now no update for Lg G6.

  • In 2018 iphone 6s or LG G6 or S7/edge

  • Mine H872 US version July 31 updated Oreo in Japan

  • I am looking at this model in india too. How did the phone fare. Can you share some thoughts?.

  • What is men? Who talks that way?

  • Bullshit they broke it

  • Seems like the western civilisation has the 8.0 update.

  • It is useless & hopeless brand I ever seen for mobiles. Me too in UAE & android version is still 7.0, no information is provided by LG care till even after continuous follow ups through email, whatsapp, twitter, facebook and so on. After sales, camera, built quality sucks totally for LG g6+ so called flagship

  • I would like evidence of this Photo or video Tnx

  • So how is the phone came out from ebay? Is it new one and any problems with the phone?

  • i wonder how i broke my g6 simtray,ill just force to removed it and when i go to service center they said that i accidentally broked the mother board...oh my!!!

  • And it's H873 the Canadian version of the G6.

  • Canada...

  • totally agreed.

  • Why stop spreading wrong info about g6 bootloop. There is no bootloop problem in g6 and never will.

  • where did u get an oreo update for H73?

  • Bought new G6 in April 2018. 2 months later Bootloop problem. Took it in for repairs and now 5 weeks later still waiting for a phone or a reply! Had the same problem with G4 but after they convinced me it was a problem with G4 only I gave it a try and bought the G6. Biggest mistake!! How long must I wait and should they replace me with a new phone? Bad service from LG!!!

  • Mine is h870s. No Oreo. Almost a year of use. Still works like the first day. I'm not a selfie user so average front cam is not problem for me. Main camera and wide angle are excellent. Performance is great. No complaints. So far no problems.

  • Men your G6 is a fake one or just stop trolling. Mine ( H873) works flawlessly and now with 8.0 it's even better. It's smooth with new animation and the camera is good but not the best but what is the best is the wide angle. I use it every time when i travel. The G6 is definitely a good phone, love mine.

  • What quality? It lags, Camera sucks totally, User Interface is childish. Have you ever seen a good quality image from LG G6 camera?

  • Hello, is there also an oreo update for H873? TIA

  • I am from the Philippines and up to this time no update. LG sucks bigtime! Sorry LG your existence is diminishing fast. No more LG for me and many others. You wont be missed.

  • Hi there. I'am from South Africa, when will my G6 get software oreo 8.0 H870?

  • Good news for LG G6 users in India. Oreo is getting released starting July 30. Update will be completed by mid August. LG customer care executive told me during phone call. Atleast be happy with Oreo while other flagships are on verge of getting updated to Android P.

  • I am from the Philippines and up to this time no update. LG sucks bigtime! Sorry LG your existence is diminishing fast. No more LG for me and many others. You wont be missed.

  • Sold my g6 after 5 months after a horrible experience with it, and now I have an s8, right out the box 2 os updates and security patches. So it depends wich brand you buy when you buy an old model I think... anyway the lg g6 seemed ok at the time, just to bad lg made it with older specs and zero aftersale-service. The device was premium but had to many little issues (if your volume is to high it cuts off the mic, so try calling with no sound...). Lg lost me and back to my old love

  • I disagree. The quality is good. But after sales support sucks.

  • you know . . . (or may be not!) but much smaller akku and no updates f. LG (to choose an older phone is rarely good decision!) also not dual SIM capable or?

  • Disappointed with camera and battery

  • hopefully it's unlocked. next time, don't buy T-mobile, Verizon, Sprint, Tracfone, Virgin - all this is CDMA or limited frequencies, or unlocking problems

  • G6 audio is better if you get the hi-fi quad DAC version.

  • You can only expect this much from such a useless quality brand LG & Hopeless after sales.

  • I like comment

  • i agree

  • I was going to buy Asus zenfone max pro M1 6GB variant but I ordered brand new LG G6 H872 (T-mobile) for 16,000 INR today from eBay. I don't know If I made a wise choice or not, just wishing it works with all 4G Networks specially Vodafone and Airtel. I am from India though.

  • Useless update, Qlens is integrated in app and if you take a photo i will tell what it is. Camera algoritam is horror when you compare it with Google camera app, just forget about LG camera app and instal your self a Google camera APK. LG cant make software for their own camera and that is so sad.

  • I just got a update and i says this:AI function added, Qlens, Bright Camera and Google Assisent have been added to the camera app. Phone usability and funcionality has been further improved. Size 780,47 MB

  • Bought this phone 5 months ago, it's still spotless, never been dropped before. This phone has a lot of issues. Vibration somehow stopped working (check yours now), the screen is ghosting ever so frequently. It hangs a lot, it doesn't perform like how a 4gigs ram phone should. The front camera is like a vga camera, images coming out so grainy. The wide angle camera is awful as well. The sim card/sd card tray is so fragile. Earphone jack doesn't work with all earphones. Very bad experience with this LG G6.

  • What is LG after is they deliberately decrease battery life afrer they've increased it after Oreo update. Do they test what they are doing? IF YOU DO SOMETHING RIGHT, DON'T MESS IT WITH YOUR VERY NEXT UPDATE! FIX THE DAMN BATTERY DRAINAGE... what kind of software development center did you open? Perhaps to kill your mobile division for good!

  • Bought an LG G6 last August. It's keeps notifying me about moisture in the USB port. Spent the last 4 days with Sprint customer service and LG customer service. Options were to drive an hour to Sprint repair, or upgrade to a new phone with an increase in monthly fee. LG customer service could repair it but without a phone for 2 weeks. Now the charger doesn't work to my phone. Sprint lied to me. Will never buy and LG phone again and switching providers

  • LG G6 or Nokia 8???

  • LG needs to fix following: Fast battery drain without big usage..Then fix ultra lagging camera in low light,any movement its horrible..And if possible fix quality of front camera because 2014 flagships had better. ADD: Camera Portrait mode,a lot of cheaper smartphones have that mode.

  • that's a crotchet...a big one!

  • So the camera mode dont switch,but only until you lock the phone:( This is still not good.

  • I have to add that the battery drains a lot faster than when I've updated it to Oreo. Perhaps they should release a patch soon otherwise I will have "1 battery day phone" which is inadmissible considering its 3300 mAh battery...LG, FIX IT!!!

  • Using LG-H870DS and running Oreo. It's a mid-range phone but it does everything I need it to, decent camera with wide angle lens,easy to use OS, decent music quality with earphones and nice screen size for watching videos. Only real downside is the battery life and occasionally lags, but I just restart the phone every once in awhile (I usually keep it on all the time).

  • Today 16/7/2018 in Czechia received sw update on LG6. Size cca 740MB. Change V20a ->V20b. Podle info z instalace jde mostly o camera UI and sw change. It truly looks quite different. There is some new function for low ligt photo. And some Jump-cut mode. For me most important-the cam stay in mode which I selected last time. Not going to basic every time. Super! Well,happy they removed mistake so quickly. My phone works no problem after installation. Should happen anything else? I dont belive all that crying "oh so slow, oh so poor battery, oh so blabla".

  • I restarted the phone several times and now I can say that it was ok but after updating it was a disaster the phone was slow at burning logo animations lg moved very slowly the applications slowly opened the camera too, but you have to do a restart vuse of the road but you do not need a factory reatart

  • You must return your cellphone to the factory reset to solve your problem.

  • could you be more specific: what is slow? the overall experience? lags? apps hang in background?

  • do not accidentally do not update the new upgrade destroyed my phone is very slow slow I'm disappointed this is a disaster

  • H870 free sim UK - I found new update today for Oreo wirj AI camera improvements To download 700 MB after work Cheers

  • i am waiting for oreo update in india..modal nmber LG-H870DS........i hope LG should give portrait mode in camera ......today all phones with dual camera got it even budget segment phones.......so LG do it in oreo .....

  • Error 404: OREO NOT FOUND H870DS here, bummer.

  • bought this phone (vs988) on taobao with only 160usd :) android oreo is finally available

  • go with nokia 8 dont buy lg g6 , I'm using lg g6 phone is not up to the mark of high end smartphone

  • Well, I already did like what you said. But in LG bridge, it also said my lg is up to date. i don't know what happen here. Should I do factory reset first and then try again?

  • Install LG bridge on your computer and connect your G6 to get oreo its exactly what i did. After a factory reset the phone works super smoothly with new animations, love it.

  • My LG G6 is still up to date with Nougat. No Oreo update for my LG G6? My LG G6 Model: LG-H870DS Software Version: V10r-ESA-XX Anyone know when will this version get Oreo update? Thanks in advance.

  • Good phone! I've been using it for a year now and everything is fine. Excellent camera and super sound in headphones

  • Yes, you are right, it is very sluggish phone, camera is more worst, & LG care is terrific.

  • is it the middle east model too? where did you bought that phone?

  • According to your information, EBR82043602, you had this component replaced. The weird thing is that this part, manufactured by LG, is only suitable for LG H850 G5, which makes me wonder "do you have a hybrid phone now?"

  • Got this for only a few days, and I'm already having that issue without having any contact with water. Tried cleaning it with tissue, tissue with alcohol, thin paper (to check if there's lint), cleaning the cache, soft reset, using another cable... nothing worked. I was able to bypass the error by charging the phone while it's off. Worked twice so far, but it is a hassle. The seller where I bought this phone from said to try hard factory reset. I have nothing in it, so might as well try. Told myself I wouldn't buy another LG after my G4's bootloop issue, but I still gave it a shot. Wrong decision. Steer clear from LG phones.

  • which is better lg g6 - 32-bit/192kHz audio or nokia 8 - 24-bit/192kHz audio when playing media? (youtube, music, movies) the OZO audio is for the recorded ones right? it does not affect when you're playing in the web app or downloaded music/movies. thanks. been thinking if nokia 8 or lg g6.

  • Hey, I had the same issue. I sent my phone to the service via LG Express and got it back 4 working days later. They replaced the part no. EBR82043602

  • If u are bass head go for v20. But if u want balanced and more refined sound go for G6.

  • what can you suggest between this, LG G6 Quad Dac version and lg v20. i'm gonna use it primarily as a music player.

  • Hi. I'm planning to buy this with the Hi-FI edition. just some issues i want to confirm, anyone suffering from Image Retention? Is the battery life good? im planning to use this as a music player. will it run for at least 8 hrs before charging?

  • I am waiting for Oreo Update also. H870S also here

  • LG Mobile has already stated that the G series will not have "P-OLED" display, that is reserved only for V series. Stop being in love with your phone, embrace it for what is represents and do not hate it for what it lacks.

  • I became interested in LG when I bought g2 and g4. But unfortunately, LG uses a non-quality glass for a camera lens that cuts off on the first day and lowers the quality of the photo and needs to be rescinded. I'm asking LG to use new Sony sensors on new phones, not the low-end models !!!! LG's next issue is its low-profile display and does not even have a black color. Even though LG itself is the manufacturer of the oled display.

  • Just clean your port with cotton

  • Hey guys is there an update on oreo lg g6 in the Philippines ?still waiting!

  • how worse is the battery life? is it only due to camera shoots or is it an overall drainage after the update?

  • I've just received the June Security Update 01.06.18 for my G600LR U+ Korean G6. The 600MB update included QLens (no AI CAM) and Super Bright Camera, add Google Assistant (I've no idea what but I've already had one and been using it). The Camera is now brighter in Auto Mode, which sometimes makes it better for indoors. This is also a drawbacks since there's more grain in the photos. You can also use MF in Auto rather than having to switch to Manual in previous version, just like V30. Also, I notice that the battery drains bit quicker. I first thought the update was for 8.1 but not. Finally, when restart, it's now LG G6 ThinQ (I can't add the photo). I've this phone for about half a year and I absolutely love it! Wide-angle is much better than tele, especially for scenery.

  • I have used one plus 5 for 10 months and now swapped it to my wife's LG G6. My impartial view is given below. Design and looks: LG G6 Screen: LG G6 Speed and performance: OP 5 OS: OP 5 if u want near stock android experience. For customization: LG G6 with so many useful tricks. Software update: OP 5 much better. Camera: Rear (LG G6) and Front (OP 5). Battery life: better in OP 5 due to amoled and FHD screen. Audio: thru 3.5mm jack mind blowing audio with headphones greater than 50 ohm impedance and call clarity (LG G6) and loud speaker (OP 5) Water & dust proof: LG G6 only Care required: High in LG G6 due to glass back. Price: LG G6 lower. Choose a phone based on your preference among above parameters.

  • in which category is better: water resistance? gaming performance? shock resistance? wide camera photos? perhaps cleaner UI? Or perhaps you want a phone that is an Android replica of an iPhone? Could you make a phrase or are you simply stating your opinion without any clue?

  • Yeah, same here. And it didn't even had a contact with water or any liquid. I sent my phone for service, now I have to wait. =|

  • When will our model here in the middle east get the oreo update?

  • when will h870s get the oreo update?

  • Go with thee oneplus its been a lot better than g6

  • if you're not a gamer, go for the G6 - after the Oreo update battery life has been seriously improved and it can match OP5; if you, on the other hand, crave for last year CPU and don't care about IP68 & military standard (which G6 has) go for OP5; if you are a casual user who likes taking gorgeous landscapes pictures but also lacks 70$ :) go for the LG G6. Good luck in your decision!

  • What do you guys suggest? G6 or OnePlus 5? The 1+5 is better in hardware but has bigger bezels and an aluminium back (the back i like) and the lg i think has pretty bad battery but is cheaper for about 70$ (which i dint have).

  • My Lg G6 have moisture detection alert. Any solution ?

  • I use android oreo, since early june. In europe (Hungary).

  • lg i brought an lg g6 a year ago. untill now no oreo. im from the philippines. and where oh where is the oreo update. lg you promised june 2018, but its july already and still oreo is nowhere insight!

  • use LG Bridge software and connect your device to the computer by USB cable

  • When or how to update to Oreo in the H870 Global version?

  • if you would care to search the internet, Oreo is already out there, in Canada, Freedom Mobile..for over a month now; if you're on a different network then you should probably say some "nice words" to your provider: for sure he already has the update but it's suffering modifications based on your providers applications (basically junk to be inserted with the update) - good luck!

  • Hello! When the new version(8.0) release H873 Canada

  • Hi,dear friend I had this problem, although 2 day after buying I realized it.I return my cellphone back and replace it with a new device.If your warranty be valid,they must replace your device.

  • Hello.Can someone help me?I noticed on my LG G6 a bright spot and it is noticeable only on white background.Do you think warranty will replace it?I am really upset about this.

  • Now 299€ in France!

  • Still No update in UAE.....:(

  • What!!! Are you sure?!!!

  • yes

  • I suggest to go for the G6, it is simply the better option.

  • It supports MHL cable?

  • Anyone recieved an update to oreo for G6+ in UAE??? Still waiting,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

  • I just want to know how is the sound?Does it slow down over time?How is the camera? How good is battery life and how good is charging?Does it have trusted face? Ty very much Looking forward to buy it beacuse its soo beatiful still and its not the fastest but its pretty good,isnt it?

  • with factory reset...without it was a nightmare...also be sure to: - enter Settings - Battery; - you will see "battery usage" - there you will see "Google Play Services" - click it and disable from Exceptions which allows it to "run in the background"; - same applies to "Google Play Store" - disable it; - check all the other apps listed there to see which one has this "run in the background" activated and disable it. (this goes also for future apps that will be installed).

  • Just curious to know whether 30% battery life improvement with is with factory reset after Oreo update or without it.

  • after Oreo it got a 30% boost...ergo, battery is better after update on G6

  • I just afraid, maybe the battery got degraded also on camera following some updates have been made. How the battery after 1 year, still good?

  • I have both and I can say that LG G6 is better. A5 is good but the camera and gaming experience is better than the G6 also I notice that the screen of A5 fails to recognize my sweaty or wet hands but the G6 has no problem reading it at all. I also prefer G6 screen I think A5's Super AMOLED is overrated.

  • A5's only advantage is the battery life witch is much better than G6's baterry. If you can get past that and those weird modification Lg made to android, G6 it's the better option. G6 has hdr screen, better CPU,usb 3.1 (A5 only has 2.0), better display resolution. Finally if specs does not matter either is a good choose.

  • you want to compare a flagship with a mid-range device? there is basically no comparison other than amoled display...fish somewhere else...

  • Which one is the best? 1 year old LG G6 or new Galaxy A5 2017? If LG G6, how is the battery and camera after 1 year of usage?

  • Which one is the best? 1 year old LG G6 or new Galaxy A5 2017? If LG G6, how is the battery and camera after 1 year of usage?

  • If you would care to search LG post, you will discover that I already have Oreo update. The problem is that newer updates (no matter if they are security or software) are VERY HARD to come by. Latest info suggests that LG is releasing a new update every "203 days" give or take a week or 2 => LG Mobile is leaking money and they can only lie to their customers, G6 ones being among the top as they want to stop updating a device which is great for customers but not so great for their pockets (yea..they realise eventually that 821 was a bust and should have waited for the 835 for G6). Stop saving your credit cards in your mobile device - have the decency to realise what century you are living in. I do not expect to get Android P on my G6 as I suspect that after 8.1 (I hope to get at least that update as they kept commended themselves that it will get it) they will issue a pitiful press release saying that Lg G6 is too old to be updated to Android P. Just look at V20 and you will realise that it has the same OS since it was released (October 2016)..

  • I do not know if you have received 8.0 and I am yet to receive it. Still I am patient. I had been a frustrated one plus 5 user in last one year despite clean and fast oxygen OS, frequent updates including may 2018 security patch. There was a fraud transaction of $350 on my credit card and I cannot suspect my PC with enhanced security. I guess OP 5 may be responsible and we all know security flaw got fixed recently in OP 6 and OP5/5T is just receiving an update. At least with LG it is not like this and with Oreo LG added additional security feature and ofcourse one can unlock OP with photo also. Enjoy G6 rear camera, Quad DAC and waterproofing. I am expecting 8.1 and 9 to arrive by Sep and Dec.

  • And when is the 8.1 update is going to arrive on G6? December? Mid June 2019?...Let's face it: LG may have established a Software Development Center to help updates being issued faster but sadly, updates for G6 are not their main priority..

  • To differentiate V30's from G6, LG may not offer AI in G6 with 8.0 update. They can possibly provide AI with 8.1 update in G6.

  • lg g6 or asus zenfone 5?

  • anybody find an AI features together in Oreo update?

  • Also, forgot to mention, my phone model is H870DSU, which is the plus version with maximum storage option(128GB), Quad dac, no wireless charging, and Dual SIM unlocked. I got my update when I woke up around 8am, CDT

  • Alright, time for a review. I got my Oreo update on 14th of June. I'll talk about my experience with the update after my main review. I have one statement about this phone: It works, it has features, it's beautiful, I like the phone. But even though I like it, I find the volume button placement annoying. I've used many phones, but the most recent was the LG G3, which time and time again I find myself going back to. The LG G3 has both the volume buttons and the power button at the back, but on the G6 the volume button was moved to the side, where I press it accidentally. The exclusion of a notification LED is pretty hard to get used to as well. Lemme list other minor negatives: Batterylife is so-so, and it can't be saved by a replaceable battery. The battery isn't great, and I have to charge it again mid-day... But the good thing is that it comes with a fast charger, which I much appreciate. The exclusion of the IR transmitter is a little annoying, at least for me, but since I don't use it much, it's fine. App management is a NIGHTMARE(haven't tried on oreo yet...). I can't sort apps by their size and manage the apps at the same time. Keyboard can only be customized by applying a theme to everything, and that goes the same for the navigation bar and the notification panel(In oreo, you get the choice to change navigation bar colors either black or white, but the rest is non-customizable..). Streaming music through Bluetooth has this minor problem where if I skip a song in Music, I can hear a noticeable pop. Home with drawer is ugly with all that unused space between apps. The camera is great, except for the front one.. That sucks. With all those out the way, time for the good stuff. As I briefly mentioned before, the camera is great, so great that it has sort of replaced my big Nikon D7100. The normal camera is really good and dynamic, and the wide angle is really convenient as well. I say more phone manufacturers should go wide angle. The design is beautiful.. Although truthfully I chose blue by accident. I was getting this phone, but black was unavailable, so I chose blue. And good thing I did. It looks magnificent. The completely flat front screen is also a good point for me since I'm one of those that want a screen protector on, but still want perfection. The fact that I can dual-window nost anything is amazing. There IS an audio jack; HiFi Dac is a good inclusion, good enough to cover the fact that I had to sacrifice wireless charging for it. For those that disagree, try the dac with high impediance device, and the ones I found to have these are the HyperX Cloud and the Bose QC25(QC35 works as well). With the right headset, you can get the best audio experience with very noticeable difference. Fingerprint is fast and convenient, and because of that, I couldn't go back to any phone with no fingerprint sensor. The Music app's custom equalizer is really easy to configure without fiddling around much. FM radio is also sweet, since I actually use it. That is about it.. Now for the very late Oreo update. Update took 7+ hours to download, and 1 hour to install. The changes that were noticeable were the design of many apps and the layout of settings and other apps. Batterylife haven't changed noticeably. Noticeable animation is when I connect the device to power, and it gives a little animation to show that it is charging. Other than the minor stuttering that went away with time, no performance issues either. The new animations forced me to change the animation speed in developer options. Overall, Oreo gives more functions and features that should've been included with Nougat. I'm happy with it.

  • I live in Italy and yesterday 14th of june i finaly receive android 8.0 (oreo) update on my H870DS

  • mine lg g6 not recieved update

  • it's been removed by "someone" who's name can't be posted here or else my comment will disappear

  • anybody H870DS owner??? how's the android areo update?i already receive the update but not yet I'll installed,any goods or bad?

  • It's better to go for the LG G6, the wide angle second camera is a very nice addition to have.

  • Exactly what I was thinking, strange.

  • LG G6 was a flagship, A8 is a mid range unit. Battery wise A8 wins as it has AMOLED display compared to LG's LCD. Other than that, any video review you would watch both phones perform similar but I think G6 has the better graphic GPU of the two. But, your question is a nonsense. Go to a store and feel both devices. Choose by what you feel, not by what you read.....

  • considering that is has fewer preloaded apps, response time is overall better - despite the fact that it does not have an 835 proc :) - I love my device despite the fact that LG is almost ready to pull the curtain on this device....

  • hearing is something, reading is another and testing it is a totally different story; I stand to what I have written

  • no longer in Top 10 by fans....although it has the right numbers..

  • At equal price, should I buy Lg G6 or Samsung Galaxy a8?

  • Is the battery life really improved?Heard that it have come down from 6hrs screen on time to 4 hrs

  • i am still waiting the update. I have lg g6 h870ds

  • i am still waiting the update. I have lg g6 h870ds

  • This mobile quad dac realy

  • the annoying Mobile Data.....are you sure?!?!.....yea...I already mentioned it 2 weeks ago just after I updated to Oreo...still annoying :)

  • Thanks for your helpful explanation.I have a question,How much has the speed of device changed?

  • thanks I will pick up one

  • Apps in app scalling missing thats the problem, forcing long display not solving the problem, and the internet turn on and off is so enoing😁

  • I have been on Oreo for 2 weeks now and here are my findings after the update: - yes, the battery has been improved (my personal opinion, at least 30% - I easily get 2 days before I need to recharge); I do not use FB, Instagram or any other power hungry app; just emails, lots of YouTube videos, messengers and camera. - for all those who are asking if there's any programmable feature on fingerprint button - THERE IS NOT! - many of the previous pre-loaded apps like LG Health have been removed (you can easily install them from Google Play if you want); - I have not discovered yet Picture in Picture feature (that is to be available in Oreo); - overall response feels better. I recommend Oreo although I expect a newer security update than the April one which came with Oreo update.

  • considering that the last update of ADW Launcher 2 was in December and the Oreo for LG G6 arrived just 2 weeks ago (6 months after), I would bet that it's not the Oreo that is causing all your problems but the ADW Launcher 2.

  • Same here. Still no update

  • Hi, how is the overall performance after the oreo update? Also interested to know, besides for unlocking, what other features can the fingerprint reader be used for or programmed for? And what other gesture features are there? Thanks

  • Hello ! you not need to update to oreo. i've tryied it since a week and there is not enough things to may switch to oreo. battery melt like ice on the sun. i finally back to nougat today and & think every time there a new android system this is to force us to change to an new device...sad i think this will be my last device from LG.

  • i update my lg g6 ds to oreo and is a horror os! what is not working on oreo: 1. adw launcher 2 is not on app scaling (navigation bar is not transparent) 2. color calibrator is not on app scaling and a lot of notifications poping and cant get rid of them 3. quick pik font is pink not white 4. stupid promts (turn on, turn off) etc. SO I DOWNGRADE TO NOUGAT SO HAPPY NOW!! ( H870DS10S NOW)

  • Which colour should i buy?

  • Got this to replace my bootlooped G4. So far I love it, way faster than the G4, doesn't really get hot at all and the battery life is pretty good for my needs. Get this if you don't want the G7's notch

  • do I upgrade my lg g6 to oreo ?

  • It's June already and I still haven't received the Oreo update, What's going on?

  • hello everyone.... how is camera and is there lag in performance. also how is battery life? I am thinking of buying this phone plz help me.

  • how about camera wise?

  • It is a good phone and better go for the LG G6. Really good value and good performance.

  • Issues,??? I have a g6 which works perfectly and it is a very good phone indeed and it's built well with fairly good battery life and the phone is fairly fast to. Don't be put off by people who have a faulty g6 because most people like me have a g6 which works perfectly and I would recommend this phone and if I thought it was garbage I would say so.

  • I need a replacement phone, my Huawei Mate 9 was stolen. I found this phone at 180$ in good conditions, is really a good phone? or I sould buy Huawei Y9 2018 FOR 230?

  • If you are asking for option so go with nokia 7 plus its very reliable phone instead of lg G6

  • g6 or nokia 7 plus? nokia 7 plus has android one, but i think lg g6 is as good or even better

  • best smartphone best camera best of the best . top 20 for 2017 - 2018

  • What issues? I've had mine for 6 months now and I have not been disappointed at all. It is a great phone and the latest software update has even improved battery life.😎 Good job, LG!

  • I am very satisfied with my G6!

  • This phone has a lot issues from what I'm seeing but it's really cheap now. Stuck between this and the Nokia 7 plus

  • LG: Learn from other companies. Increase the brightness in auto mode. Lower screen resolution for better battery life and performance. This high resolution in this size doesn't really add much benefit.

  • i prefer lg g6

  • Has anyone tried installing Lineage OS on an LG G6 H873 (Canada)? What was your experience? Thanks

  • Phone is actually good, fast and snappy, after Oreo update even better, main camera good if you install google camera apk. Front camera/selfie sucks ass, worst selfie camera ever but with google camera apk you can pull some more details. IPS screen not bad, outdore on the sun you can actually see what you doing on the phone. No overheating like some people saying and again battery life is good i get sometimes 30-40h. V30 or V35 not worth of upgrade.

  • Hi Guys, I would like to get some opinions, I'm thinking about getting a new phone (Currently have honor 5x) AND I just want to do a little upgrade( I'm waiting for Oneplus 6t and Huawei latest Mate this year) and I want to invest no more than $330 , I've only got two options so far , s7 edge($285) and Lg g6($310) , which one do you guys think I should get? and could u please tell me more options beside these phones

  • are you a samsung fan boy or an anonymous in disguise? Google your answer

  • Does this device receive monthly or quarterly security updates? What would be a better choice,this or Samsung S7? Thanks :)

  • Actual flagship vs supposedly a flagship killer. your choice.

  • Get the 64 ohms VE Monk+ from hifinage for 600 bucks, or the 80 ohms soundmagic E80 for around 3700 inr. Both are well known headphones and are available in India at the same price as international markets. They both trigger the quad-DAC.

  • G6

  • which phone is better....??? lg g6 or s7 edge...????

  • same here got oreo for almost a week now and didnt even made a hard reset just an restart and everything is perfect more smooth and more battery life

  • I updated my g6 to oreo and its been working absolutely fine but maybe I'm one of the lucky ones.

  • Had some bad days with it in the beginning. After 2 hard resets it is good. Battery is better then before. 4/5 hours sot. But it feels a bit slower and camera is not the same for me. So slow. And pictures are grainy. And the main problem I have is when a make a call it stops after about 1 min. Always. Every call. A bit annoying problem for a phone.

  • June End

  • It seems like lots of people got bad times after updating to Oreo.

  • Your experience is true & same like my lgG6+. worse camera, useless UI, Chipset issue.

  • Install pi music player. You will get a decent music player with an equilizer that you can set to your taste. And I use a Sony headphone ( MDR-ZX310AP). The lg player-equilizer is to basic. And I dislike in-ear headphones.

  • lg h870ds

  • what model G6 you have

  • bro, all is good in this phone except music quality through earphones.how to rectify.which headphones good for g6.

  • well, i've got the lg g6 for around a year and till now i don't have any issue including the bootloop

  • I updated my factory unlocked g6 to oreo tonight and then did a factory reset straight after to clear the phones memory and so far everything seems to be working fine but I will use the phone a few days and then update on the update. So far I am liking the update :)

  • Battery life after update to oreo H870 sim free: Battery 13%, after 21 h 16 min, with 4 h 47 min screen usage (at work phone struggle to keep signal)

  • Does the LG G6 have problems with bootloop as the previous models (G4, G5, G Flex 2..)?

  • only the US version

  • Already did it after the update. So already five times today did I have that problem. Will use my old phone as an alarm for safety I think.

  • Hard Reset it.

  • So this happened to me today after oreo update. Phone powered off twice while in my pocket. Battery has full charge. First I tought it was something in my pocket but left it on my desk and after 45 min noticed it did it again. Powers off and just is dead. Needs reboot every time. Someone else with the same problem? Advice?

  • Is thier any update or tweak to auto hide the home navigation bottons like the G4? .

  • 100 % agreed. Amazing phone. no complaints.

  • i have brought lg g6 5 months ago. i truly amazed by the phone. great screen, excellent camera,no lag,good processor speed, decent battery life, superfast charging,good sound quality. UI found more Continent than samsung. pl do not go with the negative comment. go and grab the phone. truly value for money than samsung.

  • is lg g6 has wireless charging options

  • I bought lg g6 and if I read a lot of bad comments but I am fascinated by this phone its speed , screen ,camera operation and phone design is a decided choice of price and quality I have not yet updated the nut and I will not until lg correct the mistakes that users logged in on this forumn I hope LG will fix any problems with new updates. I have read that in Seoul an update center has been set up that will only work on software upgrades

  • after update hard reset

  • No

  • My LG G6 went through the Oreo update last night. Since then I cannot add items to screen from chrome drop down menu. Anyone have any solutions?

  • LG G6 or Nokia 7 plus

  • I updated H870 yesterday via LG Bridge. Nice to get Android 8.0 but: - automatically wifi switch on/off doesn't work - picture in picture doesn't work - voLTE, Wi-Fi Calling don't work ( I know officially it need OS from network provider but other manufacturers can make it out of box without network provider modifications) - there is no promised Android 8.1 - there is no promised ThinkQ I didn't notice change in battery life, Mobile Internet works, WiFi works Whatever major features for 8.0 are automatically wifi and pip not implemented in this build

  • I regret updating. There are really no features that justify the downsides of upgrading the way I see it. I also have an issue with mobile internet. For some reason it's no longer working...

  • After the update I can no longer connect to the internet through mobile internet! Onky Wi-Fi works now... Wtf? :( Anyone else with the same issue?? I've tried anything. Even replacing the sim card!!!

  • I am also facing the same issue with the phone. Random lagging and even random focus issues with the camera. I want to upgrade but really confused about my options. I like the specs of LG G7 Thinq but really surprised with the battery life. I am thinking of switching to Oneplus 6 maybe? I loved LG G4 (except for the battery issues). :(

  • My experience with LG G6 is very frustrating,within 8 months ,the phone hangs ,working has slowed down,even there is see through dot in screen ,& lot of other issues,best phone to buy is with original android,any android skinned by phone makers is failure

  • I will describe some of the tweaks needed to improve your battery after Oreo update: - enter Settings - Battery; - you will see "battery usage" - there you will see "Google Play Services" - click it and disable from Exceptions which allows it to "run in the background"; - same applies to "Google Play Store" - disable it; - check all the other apps listed there to see which one has this "run in the background" activated and disable it. (this goes also for future apps that will be installed). I've did a factory reset yesterday, charged my G6 full last night. I will come back with a future post regarding battery consumption. In future updates, LG should: - change the "green" applet of the call screen - green means ECO (at least in my opinion) but in a phone, any light color (except perhaps in devices with P-OLED or AMOLED screens) tend to consume the battery faster; - very annoying notifications when you activate Mobile Data "are you sure..."...come on LG, couldn't you have skipped this kind of notifications? are people not aware that they are activating their mobile connection?...also, when mobile data is turned off, if you enter Settings, you will see a colored yellow band saying "Mobile data is off" - for whom is that notification? And that notification remains there even if you have your WiFi turned on...very weird /strange /odd ; - the Settings menu is...more confusing than ever - if you want to change it for the better I agree, but like this...why not keep it simple? is it that difficult?; - that "Adaptive Icons" with white surrounding them is...very..white....white also a battery drainer - keep in mind that although the battery may be sufficient "on paper" reality after upgrading to Oreo is very different; - RAM management is a mess and I am afraid that if I open too many apps and leave them running in the background I will brick the phone...for real. With only 4 apps running I only have available 800 MB while prior to the update I have no issue whatsoever, meaning that I had more than 1.2-1.4 GB available and plenty of apps running in the background; - finally I think there is something wrong with automatic brightness - it does not work properly....I sometimes need to disable it and activating it again in order to get dimmer or lighter screen brightness - in Nougat I had no such problem and also this tends to decrease battery life because it's not working properly. I ask people from GSMARENA to review the LG G6 review after they've upgraded this device to Oreo and post their findings as well and compare all other findings people might find. Perhaps only then LG will make the proper correction and try to keep their decreasing customers happy.

  • my opinion is that the upgrade oreo should be canceled until any problems that arise after the upgrade oreo are resolved

  • I have observed on my previous devices that updating to a newer android version takes up more RAM and screws up the snappy performance and multi-tasking ability of the device. So this time I'm not going to update to Oreo. Oreo doesn't have any killer feature that would make me want to switch.

  • p10lite is crap .... g6 has flagship specs I don't mean 821 is up to date but its graphic card runs in circles around the lite offering

  • I think that they should be criticized because they do not care that customers and users of their devices are dissatisfied. I think they should react and find solutions for possible problems as soon as possible

  • I believe owners should not ask or beg on various forums in regards to Oreo problems; they were generated by LG Mobile division; they had this device in testing for close to 6 months now and they still done it wrong. If they cannot do it correctly after all the complains they had maybe it would be best to exit this business and stop lying to their customers and continuing to provide faulty devices.

  • Anyone know when will oreo hit the LG-H870S model? Thanks in advance!

  • i did, and it.s been 3 days now, but the same problem, EVERYTHING else works fine, from camera to data and wifi. even vibrations. just the microphone, speaker, earpiece and bluetooth (when connected to speakers or headsets)

  • I think the owners of LG G6 need to contact LG facebook pages for a problem after updating Maybe lg finds solutions for problems

  • I can confirm your findings : since this morning, when I've updated the phone to Oreo, battery was 100% and now, after close to 8 hours, battery has drained 40%; I use Home&App drawer and it shows me, for that particular feature a 22% consumption - this is insane!!!; also RAM is way heavier as now I only have 700MB available while before the update I used to have 1.4 GB available. I also noticed that some feature, like round shape icons are missing from H870 (check YouTube for Oreo for G6 and there's a mini review there where the guy has that feature under display settings). I will try a factory reset this evening hoping that battery drain will disappear - if not...LG has failed again and it appears it's becoming a habit from which they cannot escape. If any of you have any other findings please post them to be aware to what's to come.

  • So after almost 24hours on oreo I noticed some things. Uses 20% more ram. On 7.0 I used 50 and now 70. Battery is also poorer. 1h30 of screen time and battery already at 40% (lost 60%). Face unlock works but is slow (2-3 sec). Some minor thing I dislike is the pictograms that are in a white thing that doesn't disapeare when I select original pictograms. Showes without in menu but are on the homescreen.

  • Should i update my lg g6 to oreo?

  • Should i update my lg g6 to oreo? I want opinions

  • it seems that the water did not went away but managed to get into the devices; when something like this happens grab your device and put it inside a bowl of rice and leave it there for 2 days - rice tends to absorb all humidity

  • hi guys, need some help..i dropped my phone in a puddle on the road. back glass popped out a bit and water got to the camera and under the LCD, but after a couple of days, it went away by itself. but now, -the phone crashes with "System UI has stopped working" when I make outgoing or receive incoming calls. -Speakers and microphone doesn't work -Bluetooth file transfer is ok, but phone crashes with "System UI has stopped working" when I connect to a Bluetooth speaker -headphone jack is not working as well. don't know if this helps, but it happened after doing a factory reset. I tried to flash the Nougat firmware, still the same, then updated to Oreo, still the same. I don't know what else I can do...your inputs are super highly appreciated guys.

  • when will update oreo arrive to india !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Yes bye the lg g6 it is great phone but I would wait before you update to oreo I myself will wait until Google fixes the problem with oreo to me not much of an update

  • To be honest I'ld suggest you to take xiaomi or meizu, or just samsung s7 edge. You should check the antutu benchmark, wireless charge, DAC,... In my opinion, G serie isnt as good as V serie and soon be out of date. You can see till now V30 is still considered as the flagship while there is no G6 advertise on LG twitter. V35 will just be a minor update compares to V30.

  • Took nearly 1 hour for downloading the update. Download from LG Bridge is slow as hell. Overall took me more than 1 hour to fully update. After the update I reboot the phone and the speed is sweet. I let the easter egg of nougat and after update is still available in notification. It runs faster than 7.0 and camera looks good. I cant double tap the square button to fast active multiwindows. Quickmemo now can creat gif. The setting interface is complete change. Picture in picture doesnt work or I dont know how to use it with Youtube. I feel like this is just a minor update for G6.

  • Has anyone got the oreo update yet in the UK,?

  • Have the update now for 30 min, phone crashed twice in that half hour, rebooted 5 times, camera app failed again, clock app just doesn't open, well wanted the update, I sure got it...

  • Do people have improvements after the upgrade oreo some concrete answers As far as I'm concerned, the g6 has problems with the camera battery whether the appliance is heated I want to buy a phone I doubt between huawei p20lite and lg g6 your opinion I beg for help

  • i've used this phone for a year now and i'm completely satisfied with its performance.it has not slowed down or bootlooped ; very good camera for an average person ,smooth graphics when playing heavy games,no lagging.decent battery life and it charges quite rapidly with the fast charging feature. i've used a phone case so no cracks on my G6. overall good phone no complaints

  • Downloading oreo. Lg g6 h870.

  • It should be like windows PC, Updates comes from Microsoft. not from Pc. manufactures.

  • According to Lg. It passes MIL-STD-810G. The phone looks sturdy and solid

  • Well today they started to launch the oreo update through OTA for Italy market. So I guess they will launch for other models soon

  • Had same problem with the mic. Didn't know it was the phones fault. Blamed it on my mobile-provider. Thx for sharing this info

  • Camera is by far worse, than I had in Nexus 5X. Both from picture quality in low light conditions and focusing speed. Fingerprint scanner is slow and not easy to find with a touch. But the worst thing is that the mic stops working during the call, so that the other side cant hear you. I notices the exact pattern: during the talk (regardless of the software used, phone, Viber, etc.) if the sound goes a bit louder on your side, i.e. you laugh or there was a noise on the street, the mic stops working. If you move the phone a bit away from you and proximity sensor detects the change and switches on the display, mic starts to work again and you can be heard on the other side again. This problem happens on new phone, which is very frustrating. Why we should them by a phone, if it can't even normally perform a call?! Phone went to service and the problem was not fixed so far.

  • look for real review some where else people some times talk crappy things about other brands .. look for review youtube has it.

  • Why o why LG wouldn't you learn from other manufacturer like apple and Samsung. Make auto brightness higher, even if it means lowering the resolution a bit to save batery. High resolution in this small screen doesn't add much benefit beside lowering battery life and slowing performance.

  • I have a G6 H870DS and I'm still here wondering why I'm running Nougat when I was promised Oreo this month. I'm a very big LG fan but these lies about updates and how long it took to even hear talk about an update is gonna make me switch brands. Not sure to which brand yet but I'm not a fan of Samsung.

  • Hi, Why do you say it passes military standard ? I'm interested in solid / durable hardware but do not find much information regarding which brands can be trusted, and if mid range hardware is as durable as flagships. Thx

  • what are the impressions after updating oreo

  • t was on a sale In my country 360usd.Thats why I bought it. Think Its good and solid phone phone. Hardware wise. It even pass. military standards. It should be a bestseller. But why do you think they put it on sale? LG has not showed customers that they care for them.They have not updated unless they are forged to. I have budget Nokia phone with A.8.1 And that Oz is way better than 7.0.For example it shows battery status of my Bluetooth headsets. It is more fluid and battery lasts longer. In my opinion.The difference in A 8.1 ws 7.0 is more than from A6 to A7. Don't you think we should ask for the best for high end devices.(I also have new 65" lg Smart TV.Its the same there. Horrible OZ.)

  • And to wich version did you update? 8.0 or 8.1? It's sad to see lg do this sort of things to the customers. Come on lg do some effort. First no update and now a bad one. I'm one step away from buying something else. Yesterday I took some pictures and the app Just stopped after 3 pictures. So reboot. Same thing (4 times). And pictures that I took were bad. And yes lens was clean. Not what I want in a phone. First and last lg if they don't change there mentality to customers.

  • I god it last summer, battery is great i charge my phone every second day, i don't play games and that stuff but i surf on Internet all the time

  • Don’t update, it kills the battery and removes a lot of stats on what uses battery, and battery saver isn’t automatic - pressing the notification opens settings so you can press “on” or “off” Phone heats up a lot when idling too.

  • Good, just return this shitty brand which have terrible security update, they were really slow, even snail was faster. Look for other brand. I have one and really angered what they done to this device, up until now it still on 7.0 Nougat, shitty flagship it is.

  • Haha lol, nice one ;-), but it's a fact we're still waiting for the update, not that the phone is bad without just the tought we're not getting it because lg has no hurry to make the customers happy is enough to dislike lg for me. What if it is a necessairy update an lg has the same aditude your Phone can be vulnerable to whatever without... that is a no for me

  • Then why did you buy it then? Sound like a troll bro. You act like it's the worst phone out there. Ohhhh it has Nougat, so what? You probably use the phone for the same crap most people uses a phone for, take pics on social media and cry about how ugly you look without filters.

  • In the the camera section, I noticed that when I switch from Auto to manual mode, shutter lag occurs. Even if I set the shutter speed to 1/4000 i notice the shutter lag problem. Does anyone has the same problem?

  • Nop, my G6 still work flawlessly and don't listen to all haters comment: Bootloop Fragile lens Bad battery and camera They are all fake but i have to say that the battery is good but not best (still better than my old iPhone 6s battery).

  • Bought this few days ago I haven't removed the seal on the box There is nothing there to get exited about..I mean nougat 7.0 What? I have 8.1 on my budget Nokia 6 And no info if it will be updated. Even If it will get Oreo I guess lg will stop there. I had lg 4x and G3 in the past It was the same then. I had forgot why I left lg. and bought Nexus and Nokia. and A1. I have contact the store and they said I can return it If i havent open the seal.

  • If you have the money Buy the lg v30 or s9plus or the new oneplus 6. Otherwise if the choice is between the lg g6 or the samsung s7edge (best battery) or normal s7 buy the s7edge if you like the edge screen. Will do everything you want and has far better battery life. Specs are the same (ok g6 has the snapdragon 821 and usb-c and the s7edge the snapdragon 820 and old usb connection) but samsung is way better in updates and those little things you like on a phone (heart-beat sensor. Not something I use everyday but I miss it). The screen of the g6 is nice but in picturequality the samsungs are better. Choose wisely. Try them out in a shop and choose for yourself. My experiences with the samsung wasn't great but friends of me have those devices without any problems so I had bad luck.

  • anyone got throtlle isue?

  • I got by ota

  • I a heavy user i use. A lot of social media and YouTube stuff, some normal games not the high graphics ones. Sobwhst should i go for

  • Canada...just across the "pond" :) Tell us how it is when you have the chance!

  • I have got oreo update (lg h873)

  • I can add to your comments: terrible security updates !

  • Have the g6 now and had s7 edge and normal s7 in the past. S7 edge had amazing battery life in first few weeks but screen died on me after 3 weeks. Turned it in for a normal s7 (edge screen wasn't my thing). That s7 had a broken battery after 3 months and burned-in screen. So my personal experience with those samsungs isn't the best. (My old s5 was flawless for 2.5 years). The g6 has a nice screen and ok battery life. Still waiting for oreo. Call quality is average for me.I like the phone but wouldn't buy it now I know how lg treats there costumers with zero updates. Maybe look for the oneplus 6?

  • Just exchanged my LG G4 to LG G6. Why G6? Because it is now the cheapest 2017 flagship. I was a bit afraid of bad opinion here and there - especially that camera is worse than in G4. After 5 days with LG G6 I can say it's great. Absolutely the best phone at this price (300 EUR). Camera is better than G4 (especially in low light). Excellent display, better battery life...

  • LG G6 or S7 edge

  • I am thinking of buing this one. Its on sale in my country.But knowing LG from past they didn't update . Has this one been updated to Oreo? It looks good. Ihave low end Nokia it has High end 8.1 And that is doing wonder. I dont want high end phones with low end android.

  • by the looks of it, it seems to be a network related / provider issue and not a device issue; this seems to be the general concern if you search the internet "your phone is not registered yet"; what update is "failing to update"?

  • need assistance my lg g6 is failing to update software.it keeps saying "your phone is not registered yet"

  • Have average sot of 5.5 hours with youtube, internet, Facebook, instagram... On WIFI. on mobile internet the sot is 3 hours for me. Maybe bad reception in my area that causes this. But my old s7(edge) had same provider and sot was 7 to 8 hours on mobile (same for wifi). Is average but not the best.

  • As I've stated in me previous comments, I have yet to see any updates on my H870 despite the assurance of LG that "the update will arrive later this month" - month being April. Yes, they've released the update in their home country but I doubt that they need that much to accommodate the update or to test it again...or that their home country is on top for sales for this device; they have been testing this device since last year. Bottom line is that they failed again to deliver and I fear that G6 will only get to see no more than 8.1 (being enrolled into Google’s Android Enterprise Recommended program) as LG cannot deliver updates as they promised. I won't mention again how few updates this device is receiving as my devices is still on January security patches (I strongly believe that Google has released monthly updates and gave them to each manufacturer to implement them). Pity...

  • Sorry to hear about the bad decision you made, but I hope you will be pleased with it.

  • The LG G6, better value for money, wide angle lens, new 18:9 display. And much more.

  • G6

  • Take the G6, it s a lot better than the a8 and looks greater and more premium. I have LG G6 and i ve a friend who owns a8 and it s a way better mine.

  • For people who read this review he clearly has a very faulty g6 as I have the g6 as I have mentioned in previous posts and it's excellent ok and it has excellent battery life and mine gives me about 5 hours SOT and I never struggle to get threw a day and I am a moderate to heavy user but my main phone is the U11 plus though but I do like my g6 alot and it has none of the issues that this person's phone has. There's nothing wrong with this phone it's a good all rounder but the person who posted this review should get there g6 fixed.

  • Plz Someone tell me the honest feedback of battery backup. With a full charge for how long it will alive if we are browsing internet or watching youtube videos ?

  • stop reading every Anonymous comment you find; G6 is a very capable device and if some of the users are discontent it does not mean that is the sentiment of every owner of the phone.

  • Man you scared me, I was about to choose between this and the Samsung A8 2018 because I want a decent phone with an FM radio, now I will definitely go with the A8

  • It seems you really have a cheap $50 knock off G6 and not the genuine device. Battery I can accept as it varies under different type of usage but camera quality and audio output is amongst the best flagships and you are saying it takes grainy pictures, it makes me image either you are living under a rock or you have been cheated with a fake G6.

  • Thanks Mr.Grey, thanks for sharing your thoughts.

  • The g6 will get oreo soon but I personally wouldn't buy it and I'd get a v30 which has dropped in price or get the g7 which is just around the corner and yeah I do have a g6 myself as my back up phone but personally I would go for the v30 now and not bother with the g6.

  • Is it worth to buy this phone now,since so many phones are coming to market,Also has this phone received upgrade to oreo yet. Thanks in advance.

  • No that is old news, really, old news.

  • This or S7

  • therefore you are a gamer...why did you not begin with this affirmation! You were attracted by its cheap price and now you regret it. For your information, battery life and picture wise are quite to very decent - you do read other's people reviews...it is a nice device

  • It seems you dont even have this phone....

  • hello people like the impressions after the update

  • Whether it's heated housing lg g6 Do you have any experience with it? Thenks :-)

  • botloop is fixed another 2016 yers

  • no ,

  • if someone has experience with lg g6, I wonder if it's getting hot how the phone works after updating oreo Thenks

  • I've had the G6 since it came out. The battery life is horrible. I feel like I'm using a 50 dollar tablet..my phone dies within a few hours of no use (evem after I reset it, it still died very quickly.) When I'm using it I get maybe two hours of use at most. The sound quality is poor. The camera is grainy no matter what setting it's in. Even when I change the camera settings, it doesn't look any different. My long texts don't send for some reason on this phone. If I write a long text, it fails to send. I haven't had this issue with other phones. The lag is ridiculous. It doesn't matter if I'm checking my email or playing a game, it lags and freezes often. It gets worse when it's plugged in. Do not buy this phone! And do not trust the "professional" reviewers that show up when you search for lg g6 reviews! They haven't even used the phone, they just talk abiut how good the specs are! Ridiculous why Google even shows those as results. (and of course on top of all that, this phone is extremely expensive)

  • Does the lg g6 have a bootloop problem?

  • No issue after 1 year of use...hardware is great ...except 2 gens old processor and late os updates. ....and LG in general :)

  • You should get a notification when the update is available for you but you can check by yourself every day too in the settings/ General/ update Center ....I think in Android 7.0 the option was not called Update center ...but it should still be somewhere in Settings/General/..Software Info...maybe

  • You should get a notification when the update is available for you but you can check by yourself every day too in the settings/ General/ update Center ....I think in Android 7.0 the option was not called Update center ...but it should still be somewhere in Settings/General/..Software Info...maybe

  • hello people tell me if you know that the lg g6 has problems with the motherboard as its predecessors g3 and g4

  • Update should be avaliable to us max in june, but its probable that it will come in may ;)

  • How u upgrade to Android Please tell me the process

  • How about Europe model LG G6 is there any possibility to get the Oreo update??

  • It's been a full day with the 8.0 update and I can say optimisation is great. After the update, the performance is rock solid...from temperature under load to battery life and ram management.Ithe phone is now stone cold even under average to heavy load. I guess 8.1 or Android P will be like a dream. To bad we will never find out on a G6. I was on the verge of ditching this phone but now I might keep it for a while longer. Huge performance increase but no thanks to LG Android 8 just rocks. If anything LG just kept it away from us for so long

  • I have looked, but many reviews dont go into that detail.. its the reason why i asked here to get first hand knowledge from users. Any recommendations for a review that i can use?

  • LG g6 anyone facing text message issue ??? I buy just 4 days only but I can't text message or receive what I can do

  • look for a review....

  • what...they said 8.1...oh..another lie...or perhaps we'll get 8.1 next year (instead of Android P).....so there's still hope

  • sorry to say..that's just bad luck..not a review

  • honest review of this "flagship" :/ in general LG disappointed me very much.

  • tonight I finally got the Oreo Update with BELL Canada. Good job LG.....I guess even torture is better than loneliness :) of course it is Android 8.0.0 ...what did you think:)

  • LG sure is snail, Its been a while, hope they dont screwd up oreo update and bootlop again.

  • Hi, what features does the fingerprint sensor have? Can you lock apps and access via fp or swipe photos, for example? Also can you create different user accounts on the device that makes it like a completely new device and can that be accessed via fp from sleep? Thanks

  • Hi bro im looking forward in buying a G6 PREOWNED from korea for 300, usd shall i go for it pls advice me. He also gives 1 month warrenty or should i look in ebay

  • Hey lg! When are you planning to release the oreo update for lg g6 global version? I really love lg phone but you Never give value to your customers! Please release the update as soon as possible this month of april. Thanks!

  • Hello. Firstly. Salute and my respect to gsmarena team. You are doing great job. I purchased g6 in czech alza 2 months ago. Went for option 60 days for return. Paid extra 5% of phone price for that. Why? Because someone's opinions on this web about battery,cam,boot, and other bla bla. I don't return G6. Instead love it. Got 2.01mm wide. The photos fully comply with gsmarena review. May look bit less sharp. But when standing same distance only. Shure same 13M takes more area photo. When same area, photos are same lovely. Only curved. Normal (no wide) camera don't bent corners like sony, which is for me definite. Colors are almost perfect for me. Are bit stronger that reality. But better than Samsung or iPhone overcooked and overlighted photos, to which I started to be alergic, because are too far from reality. I think in evening photo should look like evening,not like day. Must name Sony for my best colors, but as noted in every review, that happens only at perfect light, in all other situation Sony damaged so many family memories. My objections to G6 cam are only:I work in automotive, so 1. prefer lenses in corner to get to narrow places of car taking pictures of parts. 2. Cam doesnt have torch option like sony, but only flash. Still G6 manages to adjust intensity and bring ok photo. Sony would be burned totals.3. Photo of car cluster rarely comes focused. Cam instead focuses on the covering glass. But I guess most phones are fooled by that. Camera UI of LG is best. Sony made me lot of pain with that swipe to get video. Samsung was good. That some saying worst battery life on earth is not my case. Normaly I finish first day with 55-70%. Most consuming appears to be camera. Other things consumption are somehow greatly managed like I never seen even on Sony. Well maybe Sony last more years with same performance, needing restart maybe every 2 years. But this is my first LG,so I will see. My Samsung s5mini was different story, finally after 25months loosing signal 4hrs a day while still displaying full signal. What else? Display is good. Sony has white white. G6 white is creamy. But I don't mind now. Somehow it makes me feel warmer. Full sun reading is no problem. I'm surprised. S5 mini after update went stupid at auto brightness and went total dark at full sun or firing that boost which is super visible but horrible. And I got tired of amoled superstrong colors. UI of G6 now my love. Sony is so cold,but samurai for work,that's right. Samsung so annoying. G6 calendar is very good. I even stopped using Google calendar,which is very good too. And there is many other small things on LG which are not too naked android, neighter too much. I don't like searching and downloading apps. Now am perfectly happy with most what I got on G6. Only am not sure about Evernote,which is integrated. Maybe I have to learn how to use. But until now am fine with LG calendar and task management. LG keyboard has great functions. Only Czech words dictionary is bit small,while learning is slow in Czech and English. How many times I had to type GDi to made it first option? I did 30 times maybe but still LG changes for 'his'. But was it different on Sony or Samsung? I don't know,because I ended with auto words off there. On LG you put finger on space bar and move to side to get to proper place of word. Wonderful. How many times I was swearing trying to hit beginning of word etc. My big pain was alarm. I miss so much Samsung angel feather style soft alarm. But recorded through Mic and somehow has similar experience now. But still would prefer if LG cared about this for customers happiness. On other hand LG can close all oncoming alarm at any moment with one press. So my backup alarms dont make me look silly at work. Loudspeaker is as said in gsmarena review. What they mean by distortion at full volume is not speaker mechanic craziness,but Koreans probably adjusted sound electronically,so you hear full volume,but some parts are limited and this makes somehow flatter,but not annoying music. Generally,speaker is so loud,I mostly play music at around 80%. Yes. Front camera is not very good. But I dont use this function except video call. So I don't care. Scratching of rear camera didnt happen to me. Face recognition works. Bit slowly,but I think I would be dead if unlocking with any blink of eye on display. And yes. LG health I prefer over Samsung. Despite Samsung counting more steps (two phones in pocket). And I like the drink water reminder. So on Saturday night know how much should I drink extra:) to be healthy. I think possibly many of that bad reviews could be faked by competition dealers. Why? Because G6 is so good.

  • Awesome Camera performance?? i bought this phone today mainly because of that so called good camera. and im so disapointed. low light performance (main and wide angle camera) is so bad. my old phone was 2015 LG G4, and that 3 year old had a better camera than this "awesome camera performance". LG fooled me 2 times so far - first one with G4 bootlooping and now this one - camera is just bad compare to some old phones from a few years back. shame on LG

  • Honestly, one of my worst tech purchases Bought it only because I found a bargain... Can't wait to exchange it, maybe for a Huawei P20 Pro or Huawei Mate 10 Pro

  • Not at all

  • LG G6 is Beautiful and good performance phone still worth 2018, Expect Latest Oreo update soon this Month end Or June Company will be Updated , Build quality exelent, Multimedia Perfect And good sound quality Have Awesome Camera performance too, Someone planing to buy LG G6 2018 , yes it's ofcouse Great

  • Does in Camera app you find any options regarding AI

  • Hello everyone I got G6 Korean Model G600S one month ago, before using S7 T mobile . This device is awesome in all aspects Display , camera , signal strength including wifi, battery time , and output speaker throw quality sound. Only Front facing camera is average, rest is perfect. Today I got 8.0 update. Highly recommend Phone.

  • To be honest. Have a g6 now and before the s7 and s7 edge. S7 edge has best battery life. S7 best size. Both vivid screens in color. The g6 has the worst battery life of the 3. Screen is ok. Sun light doesn't make things better. However in theory the g6 will receive the most updates of android (oreo still a no go 4 the moment). And s7 (edge) will not get one after oreo. They perform the same in games. Want a samsung? Buy a s8 or even an s9. Want an lg? Buy the v30 or wait a bit for the g7. Will give you the most for your money in terms of lifetime and updates in the future. 2 years is a long time for a phone so better buy the best now and have a good phone for 2 years then buying an old phone and be forces to buy a new 1 in a year because it's to slow. My humble opinion. Choose wisely

  • LG G6 or Oneplus 5T?

  • Someone please release the dates for the updates model number wise. Mine in H970DS, purchased from Saudi. Hope it gets Oreo within a month.

  • Im wondering how long we need to wait for Oreo. I have the LG-H870 model.

  • I haven't found AI in camera. Yes I agree more spaces in memory and you can hide the navigation bar in apps for full screen view, which is very optimized and more display space.

  • Anyone know if the AI camera features are working? Is there any difference?

  • Do you habe the v30 ai camera features??

  • I have got oreo update on my korean g6. Its working well on oreo with new features,AI in camera and more free space 23.5 gb out of 32gb. Battery life seems to be a little improved.

  • What about its speed .. Is it as before or faster

  • LG said they were gonna start rolling out Oreo april 30th for the lg g6 so what was a lie huh? You expect every phone, globally, to get the update instantly? Sure they slacked, like they always do, but no false promises or lies so instead of complaining about not getting ur timely update just go for another brand next time aight?

  • I've got the 8.0.0 update (I'm using a Korean phone and I'm from Vietnam). It was really laggy at first but everything is fine now. Will try the new feature on it.

  • In other words another failure or lie from LG. Just a week ago they stated that Oreo for G6 will be released by the end of the month when in fact they are pushing the update further and further. When are they going to come forth and ask for forgiveness to us, the buyers, for lying to us?

  • I'm using LG G6 for several months, it has not been occurred. You can buy this without hestitation. But battery is better on smartphones with Snapdragon 835 chipsets.

  • LG Mobile is working on Oreo update and update will be released in South Korea in next one weeks. later on other markets

  • Do lg g6 have bootloop problem cause the last lg phone i have died on me on the second day and i have a phobia with it.it died by the bootloop problem

  • I heard lg g6 oreo update is coming isit true?

  • This would be the perfect size/design phone ever if it was using SD835 I'd by one if they do a refresh (LG G6X or something) with better cpu and keep everything else the same

  • im sorry but they are bad with that g4 was flagship and never got it, lg v10 never got it but the T-Mobile variant 7.0, I have a g5 and it seems that ill die with f***g nougat which seems to be buggy and I wont have oreo because at this point lg g6 / lg v20 has not received the update yet so bad news for my g5 ... android p is at the corner and when ever it rolls out it will be late for my g5 and if that happens I ll never even again buy another lg phone I could understand it because of boot loop but no with sd820 which is equal to g6 sd821

  • lg g6

  • G6 is smaller and less bezel for nearly the same screen size. And G6 has better battery performance.

  • Go for the G6. 1. Cheaper 2. 18:9 screen 3. Better processor 4. Dual camera with wide angle

  • g6 man, G6 screen is definitely more beautiful ( very much) than S7/S7e. Snapdragon 821 is also better SD 820/ Exynos 8890 on Samsung phones.

  • Guys lg g6 or samsung s7.I need to use this phone for at least 2 year and i prioritize gaming pls help asap

  • Great device. Managed to get the 64Gb H870Ds version and it is awesome. Nothing seems wrong so far. Many people complain about the old processor but doesn't even feel a tad slow. It was produced in 2017 so all processers are going to be pretty decent

  • Overall a very good phone until camera. My next will be a sammy. The Camera from a s8 is way better than G6, i mean in lowlight.

  • "IP68 certified - dust/water proof (up to 1.5m for 30 mins)" - if you bang it on the walls and cracks and afterwards you want to test its waterproofing abilities and gets damaged who's to blame? I can assure you it's quite waterproof.

  • This phone is not water proof

  • Seems like a CPU problem honestly. My phone works fine, little problem in the cold temperatures but still fine. I've also been getting regular updates so I'm not sure what's up with yours XD

  • The worst phone I have purchased in my life. Never buy this phone. You won't get any updates. Not even security updates. I don't know why, my LG g6 have big heating issue. Not recommended to buy this phone. If you are heavy user, don't even think abt this phone. Wasted my money

  • Specifications are excellent. Protection is only Gorilla 3. Other competitors has Gorilla 5.

  • do a factory reset after you do a full backup; it tends to solve the problem

  • Apologies. Its V10u-IND-xx JAN patch. I updated my phone in March when I received it OTA.

  • " March update"?!?!?!?! - what model do you have?

  • The best thing is to do factory reset. I do it a few days ago

  • Hi. I've recently started facing a reboot issue on my LG G6. This has started after I received the March update. The frequency of the restart is increasing by the day. I've also notice today that when on AOD screen the double tap or swipe is not working. This usually allowed me to enter my PIN to unlock but right now I can only unlock using fingerprint. The face recognition is also not responding well. Is this a problem that a lot of users are facing? Is there a solution without doing a factory reset? Can any one suggest something? Any official LG Blog/page where I can officially register a complaint?

  • G6 or V20? I rwally like the specs but it seems tha LG aren't keeping up with security updates? Your opinions please.

  • My wife still has the lg g2 and still working great I got the LG g6 & if it works like the g2 and as long I will be happy g6 is a great deal

  • G6 or V20? I rwally like the specs but it seems tha LG aren't keeping up with security updates? Your opinions please.

  • You can read, do you? Check the specifications and you'll have your own answer...

  • Help. Which phone is better.. LG G6 or the LG Q6?? Opinions please?!

  • Before you start cheering up LG for their move you'd have to consider that until today, they have done nothing. Everyone knows that they leaked pictures last year saying that G6 is being tested for Oreo in China - which makes G6 the most tested Oreo device in history: did anyone received anything: NO! Just few days ago I've read that LG has also skipped few security updates (3-4), which are monthly released by Google, but LG disregarded them as they considered that they are not that important to us, the faithful LG customers, for them we are only money bags. How are the owners of LG V20 feeling when they had ZERO updates (18 months since that device was released - the first ever with Nougat) and now its time is almost over. Yea....think twice before cheering LG for something they have yet to accomplish. And also, I strongly believe that LG will not release any updates "later this month".

  • Sorry now we discuss about lg g6 not "U11

  • Yeah that is good news, they need faster updates and glad they opened a new update center just to focus on updates and release important and needed updates sooner. Good move by LG.

  • LG opened the Software Upgrade Center in Seoul, a facility set up with the express goal of speeding up the Android software delivery system for LG phones.  (aims to make slow updates a thing of the past) The first task set upon the shoulders of the Software Upgrade team will be to deliver Android Oreo to LG’s 2017 flagship, the LG G6. The company hopes to be able to start rolling out the new update in Korea later this month. Nice move for LG Bravooo :)

  • I guess that specs should be corrected as G6 has LTE Cat 12/13 modem.

  • The camera and video quality on the U11 is excellent and audio is really very good also and I would recommend the U11 over the g6 but if you like lg phones then go for the g6 but I personally think the U11 is a excellent phone. I bought my U11 in June last year and I have had no problems with it at all and it does everything I want it to without any issues :)

  • You mean to say even in camera / video quality also?And what about audio quality?

  • I have a g6 myself and a htc u11 and I admit the U11 beats the g6 in every way except screen size and always on display of the g6 so I would say if you is interested in the U11 then go for it but if you want a big screen and always on display then buy the g6. My U11 is my daily driver whilst my g6 is merely my back up phone now but I think my next phone will be the HTC u11 plus but I do like the v30 but the single speaker of the v30 isn't good enough compared to HTC phones.

  • 5t

  • 5T all the way, I've tried my brothers G6 for a week because my previous phone died before buying the 5T.

  • I really don't care if i don't get Oreo, as long as i get security updates. But this was the last year premium device, and not getting update to oreo, now when android 9 is almost out.... hm. Bad for lg reputation. Love the wide angle camera. Great nature photos (who needs gopro) :) If i was gonna buy new mob. in 2018 I'd go for v30 I have lg g6 6 months now. I love it.

  • Plz help me choose between lg g6,honor view10,op 5t

  • The front camera is worthless. You would want to burn your face after you see how it looks in the selfies. Totally disheartened.

  • To be honest I love this phone. It is simply amazing. Snapdragon 821 i dont see any difference. User experience is great. I love the cameras and everything in this phone.

  • How do you mean? The phones that are the same in specs or price? It was released as an answer to the s8 but has a bit better spec then the s7. Screenwise the amoleds of the Samsung phone are better but personaly I dislike those because of the possible burn-in (what I had on my s7) and my eyes were tired an feeled burned after a while looking to those screens because the're to bright for me. So the screen of the g6 is far better for me. I think you can find phones that are the same in price or in specs, but best is don't read too much reviews and go to a shop and play around with them. When it has 4 gig of ram and a processor of the latest 2 years it will be fine for day to day use. However if you need a phone that has the best of everything to show off with, look at a s9 or iphone x or even a v30. Phones that cost twice then this phone, everything has a price, personaly to much for that small noticable diffrence in usage. If an app opens up 0,0001 sec faster on those I don't care much. Camera whise it also personal, best camera I had was on the s7 or even the s5. G6 is a 8/10 whike the s7 was a solid 9/10 for the camera. Small diffrence maybe due to software. Look at the v30, solid phone that has great reviews but as usual no-one wants it because its not a samsung or iphone. Same with the g6. Those huawei phones look good but I have zero experience with them so no opinion.

  • what does the LG G6 most competetive brand to compare, pls. give atleast 3 brands..thank you for your comments.

  • No this model cant root

  • latest offer I saw in my country - 330E

  • who has the better main cameras - lg g6 or xiaomi mi6? not interested in selfies. i love the g6 wide angle camera, expandable storage and 3.5mm jack, but im a little bit sceptic about battery life and infamous bootloop problem (my lg g4 just died a few days ago from that problem). they are about the same price in my country (360 euros for the 64gb version)

  • go with the G6 Better overall device the twin lens camera is priceless.

  • XZ1 Compact or G6? Both ~same prices, but XZ1C has an SD835 and would probably fit better in my hand. However G6 has the better camera and much better community support (custom ROMs, root) which I'll definitely use, coming from a Nexus 5x. Can anyone with the G6 give an honest opinion about how it performs today?

  • Down to 399 euro new in my country and that is a good deal.

  • from where I see it, LG is in "denial" when it comes to G6 news: - we know that it has been introduced in Google Enterprise Program and it will get Oreo 8.1 "soon" - this could be, in relative terms, 3 years from now; - we could speculate that, while developing Oreo for G6 they discovered that it was a huge mistake to insert 821 chip into this device because future updates are impossible or they will "brick" the device; - or, although Oreo is feasible for the G6, nu future updates are possible, which will make LG a huge liar because they promised 2 version of android, in terms of updates; Or, LG is simply trying to get out of the mobile business due to lack of innovation or people to develop their software updates. Basically your question has no answer...not even LG can answer it...they don't know what to answer!

  • When is the g6 getting 8.0. Soon 9.0 will be coming out. I don't see an update scheduled. It's the reason I haven't bought one. Great looking phone though.

  • I had the same problem. After the V10u-IND-xx Jan patch, my phone became slow, especially the phone dialer. almost unusable. Did a factory reset and everything started working fine. Try it out.

  • I don't know about prices in other countries, but in mine i could buy g6 for 482$. New! It's still a good money/value choice. I bought it in october 2017 for 500$. Works like a charm.

  • Thank you for listing the cons. Not many people share that. I wouldn't buy a Samsung again either. Very bad value. What phones would you suggest being involved in smartphone repairs as you say? Thank you.

  • When everybody is praising g6 camera quality how you are critising camera quality. Quite surprising

  • Go for the G6, no doubt.

  • Concerning G6 I have to admit that it had its share of accidental drops but so far not a single scratch. I admit, I've applied an Alien Surface wrap (it's a self healing screen protector) and I have a Spigen cover. Regarding Mi Mix 2..not a clue, you'll have to search on google or some forums about its durability "drops". I'm sure you'll make the right choice (no matter which device you'll choose).

  • Thank you for the respons! My main concern is with the fragil construction of the Mix 2 (the g6 seems alot sturdier), but the front of the device is just tempting me. Updates are not something that is bodering me, as I see it the software on the G6 is good enough even without oreo update. In the end i would say, the question is: Will the Mi Mix 2 survive the ocasional fall on the ground?

  • Verbally we can recommend anything. You have to hold them in your hand and see their interfaces to get a proper impression. I do not know how Xiaomi updates are, but me, as an G6 owner, updates are from worse to terrible. I will probably offend some of the people reading this but today I had on online chat with LG support regarding Oreo update and they told me that they only receive memos and notifications, they are not allowed to ask "mother company" anything, especially related to G6. Basically LG is trying to get rid of all those faithful clients or trying to get out of mobile business...take your pick.

  • Hi everibody! Would apriciate some help. I'm planing to buy a new phone and I'm considering the Lg G6 and the Xiomi Mi Mix 2. (similar pricing where I'm living) What would you recomend?

  • Search this app cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v3.6.apk Very good apps custom for lg g6

  • I have both. G6 is better in everything faster cam etc... A8 have a little better front camera than g6 and that is all

  • When will we recieve sw update 8.0 in UAE for G6??

  • Samsung A8 or LG G6

  • the same here ! i dropped mine 3 times, and nothing SOLID phone

  • Camera glass is bad,after 4 monts of use,it looks terrible. Glass on the back of the phone is perfect,I dont understand way is this happened. Same thing is happened on my friends G6,so this is not and isolate situation.

  • Seriously i'm surprised by my G6!! Yesterday i accidentally drop it from 1,5 meter to the ground (bricks) and it drop on its face i was sure that i broke my screen. When i took back the phone with eyes full of tears (lol) i realized that there was nothing on the screen not even a scratch.... And for those who where saying that the glass lens was fragile the answer is No (On my G6). Proved.

  • I don't own one of these phones, but I am trained on how to perform repairs and refurbishment on this model of phone. These things are not the greatest, and there are certainly better phones on the market in this same price range. The cameras are similar to the ones on the Galaxy S8 and S8+, but not quite as good. As far as repair and refurb goes, they have their pros and cons. Back covers remove easily enough, but a total rebuild requires quite a few parts, including conductive tapes for the various system components. Personally, I think they're an okay phone, but they are not worth the $700+ dollar price tag LG slapped on them. Being fair about it, Samsung S8, S8+, and Note8 phones aren't worth it either.

  • It's a nice phone with good looks and a nice feel. Signal is good, good resilient build. Battery life decent. Heats a lot during streaming and music. Overall, apart from some minor design issues, a good phone. Only one bad bad thing about it. The camera is an absolute disaster. One of nuclear proportions. Anything but the best lighting will result in messy pictures. Zoom in to actual size (pixel size) and you get an incomprehensible mess. If you need to take photos of your recent car crash to show to the Police as proof, it will do the job. For just about anything else, it's useless. For a flagship, it's a total embarrassment. I remember the Nokia slide phone with 2Mp camera I had ages ago. that one took far better pictures. If I were the president of LG, I would summon the guy who's responsible for putting this camera on the G6, kick my shoes off and chase him around, try to slap him on the head with them.

  • Is anyone facing issues with the G6? I bought mine a week ago and it gets really hot when using the camera or internet. Are there any solutions available or should i ask for a replacement? Thanks

  • Wait for some time & get the Nokia 7 Plus

  • G6 or the A8 2018? (The regular A8 not the plus model)

  • had the s7 and s7edge before my g6 and s7edge let me down after 2 weeks (phone froze all the time, needed soft and hard resets) so I switched to the normal s7 because after two weeks I realized i disliked the edge screen (my personal experience). My normal s7 was great the first month, then a lot of battery drain, a last I had 1 hour SOT and it was done. And after 2 months had a burned in screen (brownish spot in the middle of the screen, like half the size of the screen). So switched to something that looked fine, was ok in specs and was ok in price. result is that I like my g6 a lot more then the samsungs. I use my phone daily and never had anything special with it for the moment. And the screen is something I absoluty love about it. Battery life is just fine for me, 4 maybe 5 hours SOT on lte, and 6 to 7 hours when on wifi. more the enough for me. Solid phone that nobody likes because it's nor samsung branded.

  • Not really, because the G6 was announced way before the S8.

  • If you don't care about the amoled display g6 looks newer.

  • I prefere s7 because the display is better . If you care about the amoled display choose s7. But is you like the new design choose lg 6. Lg 6 is a try to immitate s8.

  • please friend iam very confused to choose between s7 normal or lg g6 any help ?

  • Stay calm, no boot loop issues yet!

  • I have a g6 myself as well as my U11 also and the g6 does not suffer from boot loop or anything else in my experience and its extremely well made also you cannot go wrong with it. I have had the g3,g4,g5,v10 and I think the g6 is the best of all of them and hopefully soon I'll get a v30.

  • This is my first lg. And I like it. No problems here for the moment. No lag. No bootloop. No batterydrain. Just a solid phone. Use this phone as main driver.

  • Hii Guys... please confirm that whether LG G6 have Boot-loop issue or any other related manufacturing issue...?? I have a very bitter experience with LG G3 regarding Boot-loop but I am really inspired with its display and other specifications...

  • Buy the g6. Also buy some sony headphones and install the pi-music player. This has a better equalizer and a lot of settings. The sound of this combination is for me better then I had with my s7(edge).

  • Then by all means go pick a flagship that still carries this feature. Why should we care about your disapproval, be happy with what you like and post on that device's page!

  • tnx friend but iam afraid about lg bootloop like lg g4.and at the same time iam afraid about pink line probleme in s7.

  • No I.R.Blaster? Then... Never way. I need, I want, I like the irblaster. Remote control for/to a home, when children Do disappear the devices...

  • Obviously G6 Better design Better camera Better battery Better display ( HDR 10 supported, Dolby vision display) Usb type C Better loud speaker performance (clarity & sound level) Better internal storage(64 GB) Better processor(SD 821) FACE UNLOCK FEATURE HIGH QUALITY AUDIO (QUAD DAC IN INDIA)

  • Any issues so far in the G6? I read comments that the Camera some users said its a bit blurry and washed out. Thought i would pickup either g6 or the S8.

  • You can buy h870dsu online, search for it. Bay the way, B&O headphones are crap.

  • Does anyone have any idea why the G6 doesn't come for the EU market with the B&O headsets and the Quad DAC function? I understand that the wireless charging function is only for the US market ( from Android Authority channel ) but for the rest - Asia & EU I understood that everything else comes as standard ( Quad DAC and B&O headsets ). And now, after I wanted to place my order - the shop told me, that the Quad DAC and B&O comes only for the Asian market. Same goes for the LG V30, and I had the V10 with Quad Dac

  • G6 blows away every spec the S7 has including faster cpu its a 2017 vs a 2016 ! S7 has a tiny 5.1 display while g6 is a 5.7 this guy has no clue wtf he talking about

  • yes same with my cell also ,contact ,dailer all become slow. no Oreo update yet

  • Samsung s7 over lg g6 1- slightly better display due to being AMOLED 2- slightly better battery 3- better software support LG G6 over Sunday 1- bigger display 2- dual rear cameras with wide angle 3- faster charging with USB type c 3.0 Choose upon your preferences

  • hy friend lg g6 or galaxy s7?and why?

  • Many thanks to all for your advice!

  • Go for lg

  • Any one tell me lg g6 or one pluse 3T

  • Lg g6 over Samsung A8 1- better screen 2- better dual rear cameras with wide angle 3- better performance A8 over lg g6 1- better dual front cameras 2- better battery 3- better software support Choose upon your preferences

  • Galaxy A8 duffer mobile but lg g6 super smartphone big different bitveen lg g6 & a8 i recommended you lg g6 only

  • Hi everyone. Between the LG G6 at 300 dollars and the Galaxy A8 at 430 dollars, what would you recommend?

  • Oreo should be released to the LG G6 in Canada this month. I'll be happy

  • G6 no way you gonna compare the flagship g6 with a mate10 lite !!

  • LG G6 is going to be a better one.....

  • G6!

  • please friend tell me lg g6 or huawei mate 10 lite?

  • Settings -> Lock screen -> Face Recognition Please note that Face Unlock is less secure than fingerprint sensor. Good luck.

  • But in my country the G6 is the most expensive phone among them.

  • How to Use Phase Detection in G6? I want to take similar picture like DSLR with Phase Detection (Using similar thing in S7 Edge)

  • that would be H873, correct?

  • My advice: go fot the G6. 1. it's the cheapest among these three phones 2. it's the most pockatble 3. very nice design, altough that's personal. I own a Note FE which is a nice phone, but only if you want the S-Pen I would recommend it. The Nokia 8 is a great phone, but the camera isn't the best. The G6 offers a very nice second wide angle camera.

  • Fido Canada is saying Android Oreo is going to be released in Canada in March

  • I've got this device for a year and it doesn't show any sign of bootloop at all till now

  • Which one i should buy? LG G6 or Note FE or Nokia 8?

  • I am unable to edit contacts in my G6 mobile. If tap edit button it is going back to contact once again. Please give me the solution for this problem.

  • You're right it is turned on now. But at launch it wasn't. And I'm not even sure if all the carriers turned it on. If I remember right only T-Mobile turned it on (please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here). I personally have no use for it, but if there are folks asking for... might as well let them have their FM radio.

  • not at all

  • google your question or read all comments of this device

  • hi friends I want to buy lg g6 phone. Is this phone suffering from bootloop problem like lg g4 or not?

  • OK for my taste but I'm using it only for personal use without any "criteria" in mind. A memory only requires your mind to be alive and not a 4K video with "some still and awesome clarity shoot"...The one who consider only a 4K to be worthy for a memory...has a stupid brain!

  • First, I don't get what you are blabbing about. If what you said is true, then maybe you just got unlucky. I have been using this device for a while now, and even my friend tried swapping his S8 for my LG. It's a very premuim device, and I don't even use a pouch even though it has fallen off my hands a lot. It still stays intact expect for the bumbs on the side of the phone were it took direct hit. The device is really fast, but maybe the Samsung S8 maybe just a tad bit faster, and that is only noticeable when u put both phones side by side and run apps simultaneously, and even then, some apps still open faster in the G6. The G6's display seems cooler even though the S8 may have a better display on paper. I have had the opportunity of using both phones, and they are both amazing in their own ways. Saying LG shouldn't make phones just seems like you are just here to discredit LG for Samsung.. LG G6 is amazing..

  • I don't understand why this says the US version doesn't have fm radio. Mine does and I've really been enjoying this amazing device..

  • Thnx for suggestion...

  • Hows the vidéo recording....???

  • First of all: STOP JUDGING A BIRTHDAY GIFT AND PUT A PRICE ON IT! If you had used your own money I'm sure we wouldn't have this chat now. As you mention " I am a heavy user with using a tech for my work as well" perhaps this is what caused your device to succumb. The 821 works fine for my taste but in your case I would suggest a portable computer with 4G data attached to it if you have such heavy loads. A shaky hand can damage the sim tray

  • I am writing this review after using this product for about 10months. So here it is. This product (black variant) was a birthday gift from my father on 10th May 2017 ( I recommended after a lot of research, of course). It was worth 50k back then with an outdated processor (Snapdragon 821) whereas S8 offered Snapdragon 835. I still thought of putting my faith in it (No clue what got into me). Due to my extremely busy schedule, I set the phone on 12th May. It took about 5HRS for its first charge. I tried managing on and off until July ( because i did not wanted to switch to another phone as setting a phone takes a lot of time; At least for me). I got frustrated eventually since it lagged way too much, battery issue on charge time and drainage, visited the service center in July and they tried convincing me it was fine. After about 4 visits I managed to convince them to issue me a DOA certificate (dead on arrival). Got a new handset and damn, happy now. The new product seemed to run fine, until around October is started off to lag. Lag real bad. I am a heavy user with using a tech for my work as well. While I was off on a trip to Dubai, the sim tray broke while I was trying to switch to a local sim. It still seemed to work fine until about a week back, 21/02/2018, when the battery drained overnight. I charged my phone next morning and switched it on, it seemed to not read one of my sim cards (airtel; vodafone seemed to work fine). I tried changing the slot and still the same. I reached out to an airtel outlet and the sim worked all fine in another handset. I reached the LG service center again, the guy suggests flashing the software (thereby losing all of my data for the 3rd time for the same pathetic product). Can't explain how annoyed (and equally helpless) I feel. PROS: I would surely take time to appreciate what's good. 1. Camera- Outstanding. Can't beat the pictures clicked from it. 2. Display- Beautiful colors and real bright and immersive display. 18:9 screen ratio gives a great experience. 3. Battery- I wouldn't say good, but decent. Anywhere close to what other premium smartphones might offer. Unless, you are a one plus user. 4. Fast charge- It really charges the phone good and fast. (The experience from the replaced model). 5. Aesthetics- The phones looks premium and beautiful. Easy and comfortable to hold and operate. CONS: 1. Sim tray- Extremely fragile. Handle with utmost care. 2. Battery- At a price of 50k, offer better battery performance please. 3. Processor- Stop being outdated. When others offered SD835, you offer SD821, and let me tell you, it wasn't worth the trust I put in the product. 4. OS- It has been about a year almost, the Oreo update hasn't been rolled out. Now, when I pay 50k, I expect quality and service. I cannot wait for Android 8 when the world it prepared for the launch of Android 9. 5. Customer Service- Real bad customer service. Extremely poor knowledge of the product. No audacity or manners to behave with the customer. Keep procrastinating the work. Extremely unprofessional. JUDGEMENT: Dear LG, I have had food stored and cooked in your refrigerators and microwaves, had a TV for about 10years. I really like your products but please stop fooling and looting people by selling your phones. It is not your forte, not your genre. Please save your brand name and stick to what you are good at. You are not good at making smartphones. Face it. Dear people, thank you for reading the review. I strongly support and promote LG all products (except smartphones). They are good with it. But please don't invest in it's smartphones. Happy shopping.

  • Means it must be repaired...because mine has no issues at all!

  • would you preferred it to be called "sealed battery" ?

  • Is there such a thing as 'non-removable' battery? Did LG carve the battery to the mobo of the phone or what?

  • Hi... It's happen to me as well. Posted system updated, everything has change into bad thing. Battery dry so fast.. Open phone book it is lagging for few second including when you make a call.. it is need to wait until phone call made. Any solution guys?

  • Try a factory reset and let us know how things are gone!

  • Updated the lg g6 India Just can't use the phone contact and dialer It takes 15 seconds to bring the results of the contact search Then after you select the contact it takes 10 secs to start the dialing Tried a number of things .. uninstalling apps , removing contact and phone permission no improvement My observations If you disable wifi and cellular data . You get your speed back Can't figure out what changed after the update It's a pain to use the phone now . If you want to make a call you need to switch the wifi and data off each time Why is lg not rectifying it LG G6 was the galt ship phir Also after update Battery burns in 6 hrs instead of lasting an entire day Hope LG does something .. my next phone is definitely not an LG

  • no is not, model H870DS cannot root :)

  • Thanks for the feedback. I will be at the service provider in the AM to see about replacing this faulty device.

  • I think it's just a manufacturing defect. You must change with another new one. I have one and my brother too, its works fine for more than 6 months now. Good luck.

  • I have the LG G6 for less then 30 days now and are having a screen issue. I will be taking the phone back to the shop on Monday as this issue occurred outside business hours. I however would like to know if anyone knows what could course this type of screen issue. My phone has color lines across the screen vertically. I haven't dropped the phone or mishandled it in any way and have and I kept the phone in a silicon cover. My phone was charging via a power bank and I was taking pictures in a park while being there with my family. I turned the screen off for a minuted while I was waiting to take the next picture. I scanned my finger and next thing I noticed was lines on the side. each time I seem to turn the screen off and back on the lines seems to be moving across the screen. I had a hard time getting back into my phone after a complete shut down and after about 2hrs managed to perform a complete factory reset but the issue remains. Has anyone had this issue or know what could course this from happening. This is my first LG after many years of being a Samsung user and I am very disappointed right now. Freaked out user!

  • Backup and reset the phone.

  • I have same issue exactly

  • Same here and i'm fed up with the contacts freezing

  • just reset

  • Did you get your update OTA for January ? Or downloaded manually ? And if Manually , how did you update the phone ?

  • I bought my LG G6 for just 310 EUR (382$). I like it overall, just that the battery could be a little better. I can use it the entire day (about 10 to 11 hours ) before i recharge it. Also for me the battery is not a deal breaker. This is an awsome phone with a very good camera capabilities.

  • Where I live the G6 is substantially cheaper by almost 100 euro

  • i received an update on 10 feb on ota ..after updating mine contact list is freezing and phone is over heating and batterylife has become shity..plz suggest me any solution if any one is having ..

  • I have the G4 and had the bootloop issue a few months ago. I've been using the phone for over a year then and its already out of warranty. All I had to do is call LG, I was informed that they'll repair my phone free of charge. I printed labels they sent me, shipped my phone to them free of charge and got it back after a week. LG covered even the shipping and handling. Now, that for me is great customer service. My LG G4 is still working although i'm only using it mainly now for wifi casting coz I've upgraded to LG G6 :) Been using my G6 since August and I've had no issues. I was a big fan of iPhone when it first came out, from jailbreaking since there was no app store back then and we have to rely on Cydia. Now i think iPhone is overrated and samsung is overpriced. LG isn't that cheap, but its just right for my budget and it is a great phone, not to mention that their customer service is great!

  • Not sure why people complain uodate on thia model. Im use lg g6 h870ds and just update my phone witj latest patch (1jan2018) Im ok with nougat since oreo update still not stable jan 2018 update so much better in term battery use. I can SOT for 4 hours and still have 40% balance Trust me LG phone is the most easy to update software. But im update manually using lguppercut and download from lg-firmwares.com

  • update is fine just reset your phones ...

  • It's true update is shitty and what is right way to update plz tell

  • Question: considering that LG has pulled out of the Chinese smartphone market (the biggest smartphone market) and that LG G6 was being tested for Oreo update in this country, how is this affecting the rest of the world: are there still users left there that are transmitting their info to LG or they have to start all over in another country?

  • Almost the same price with one plus 5T.Really confusing.

  • Only lg g6 is better

  • You telling wrong . you update it's with wrong way ok .

  • Thats the point...

  • Backup and reset the phone. Every phone need to reset after Software update. Remember that.

  • After the reset the phone is working excellent.

  • Did anyone reset the phone after update. If not, Reset the phone. It will fix all of your problems. (BACKUP every thing before reset. Don't blame me if you loos your data)

  • Horrible update such a beutiful phone totally destroyed It hangs like anything To dial now is very painful Feeling scared to use this now LG pl remove the person who has designed this update immediately and pl provide fresh update to rectify this otherwise replace our phones immediately and pl do not do such blunders in future Do something at the earliest and pl respond. gsmarena people pl convey this to lg

  • If you have upgraded the software of the phone. Example: from Android 6 to Android 7...there is no going back. You could probably root the device and flash a custom ROM...bla bla bla. The average user is not going to attempt this process. IF, the app itself updated and changed the layout..this is more easily fixed. You should be able to surf the web and find the previous APK file and install pretty easily.

  • Seriously a shitty update. Phone started to hang alot and has gone very very slow. Really irritating, feels like selling my phone off and getting an iPhone. Blunder of an update.

  • After this horrible update my Call dialer stucks and works very very slow often hangs and irritated with this patch. Lg provide us a solution or roll back the update

  • Very slow in multi tasking switched to this phone from one plus one comparatively very slow try u r mobile network data and open u r phone book

  • I am facing problem after latest software updation. I am not able to use phone book , if any one have idea how to remove updation. I wish to use old version

  • reset phone

  • That was terrible update...I don't know what to do...phone has slowed down a lot...and it is just 3 months I m using...brand new.

  • After this horrible update my Call dialer stucks and works very very slow often hangs and irritated with this patch. Lg provide us a solution or roll back the update

  • which is better in terms of cam and play music using headset. lg g6 plus or huawei mate 10? need your opinion guyz... plz... advance ty for your comment

  • How is it can update Jan 13 patch 2018

  • After update battery life increased. No hanging. Update only after clear cache memory.

  • Since from last update phone battery is drawing heavily.. Hanging.. LG why do you give these horrible updates... Guys plz don't update the new new patch given by lg..

  • It easily lasts me a whole day of use (games etc), but it does not fair well with youtube. P. S. I have the brightness to max and always on screen enabled.

  • Just updated with 695 mb approx yesterday Phone is hanging too much Would request LG people to solve the problem

  • How's the battery life?

  • Just installed January security patch. (H870S)

  • january security patch

  • What's new in this update?

  • Update size was 1155MB, it was only a security patch. I was thinking its an Oreo update but hard luck. Will have to wait for another eternity. Anyways, no change in the UI, just the security patch update i believe.

  • Got a new update today, it's still downloading. Don't know if it's a security patch or Oreo update. Will post a new comment once it's installed.

  • AT&T model comes with FM radio and wireless charging, so it is possible to have both of them.

  • Its not that common. The glass is the same standard, and Gorilla 3 was chosen for the front because it was more scratch resistant. Most units won't have cracking problems.

  • Hey, i got mine 5 mouths ago and there is nothing. First before buying the phone i was a bit worry about it. Just don't listen to all those hatters but i recommend to use a case cause the sides of the phone (the metal) are easy to scratch. Mine work perfectly with out any damages now

  • How long every body uses his LG G6 ? Is it durable ! I have read about back glass tearing and easy broken camera glass while using flash ... how common is that :)

  • Nokia 8 is the best mobile

  • Both are comparable, design is different, whatever you prefer. Also G6 hs IP rating and V20 not, but V20 has a removable battery. Both have pros and cons, I think it's up tp the pricing and personal preferences in what one wants and need in a phone.

  • Buy anything but iPhone or Samsung.

  • buy an LG G6

  • buy htc u ultra

  • V20 has removable battery, G6 does not; V20 has DAC feature while only a portion of G6 benefit from it; V20 also has extra a secondary small screen while G6 has a big screen with a smaller body factor; G6 battery is better and both are very good devices!

  • Which is better, LG G6 or V20?

  • Lg g5 great smartphone if you will use first time you will forget i phone & other smartphones

  • You cannot ask people to recommend you devices. After all it's your money. The G6 is a flagship, but also was S7 edge, HTC 10 and LG G5. The Huawei devices you mentioned are mid range devices. S7 edge, HTC 10 and G5 will taste their last update this year. G6 is the only one which will receive Oreo and the future P android update. As for the Huawei only 7x will receive 2 major updates but I can only guess since it's newer. If you have the chance, try them in a store, see what you like and look for reviews on the internet (comparison). Best of luck in your decision!

  • perhaps you were deceived into buying a faulty device

  • I also got it this morning OTA. Same software version.

  • v11i-eur-xx

  • Dear means LG g6 totally garbage

  • Absolute garbage. Problems are it has a glass style back that cracks easily, mine cracked 100 yards down the mall where I purchased it because it was in my pocket with car keys while buying a coffee, could still see the kiosk where I bought it, of coarse nothing they will do about it... Fixed non removable battery, unlike most other android models when the battery goes in this one you cant just pop a replacement in... Different charging cord, throw out the 20 you had for your old phone, they wont work with this one. Now the main problem, these phones are PLAGUED with charging port issues. Mine started the "moisture detected in charging port" (so charging is cancelled) about a month after I got it even though it is in an otter box and has never been exposed to water. You have to go out and buy a wireless charger because sometimes it just wont charge on the cord. Today for instance it charged perfectly for 30 minutes and at around 60% it decided there is moisture in the charging port... Other issue is sometimes it randomly starts vibrating an alarm about something with the usb. It doesnt stay on long enough to read it but it comes on and off in about 1.5 seconds, it will do it every second for hours, on off on off on off you have to shut down the phone to stop it. Sometimes it will behave itself for a few hours, sometimes its weeks. In short, I would not recommend this phone. They will tell you they havent heard of these problems but google it, THOUSANDS of us have these problems and they dont care.

  • Thanks for reply Dear plz help I want buy new Mobile but I am confused wich the best, I am ifone user last 4 year but now i want convert to andorid, tell me wich is the best HTC 10, oneM9+, Galaxy s7 edg; Huwai honor 6x,7x,8x,Nokia8 , Lg g5 ,g6 or any other model

  • I forgot to say that I updated through LG Bridge

  • G6 without a doubt, comparison would be pointless in this case

  • what software version do you have now?

  • G6or HTC 10 which best

  • Portugal

  • mine shows I'm up to date; which country are you from?

  • Thnk you

  • Lg g6 h870 already has security update from January 1 I updated today 27 January.

  • I tought the v30 was against the note 8? I liked samsung but last few years they get more and more expensive just like apple-products. So bought a "cheaper" g6 and it does the same. People are stupid to pay more then 800 euros for a phone, they get a lot a tech they never use or even know its inside there phone.

  • Do you want android or not? Iphones are always overpriced anyway. My choice would be the g6 however your personal needs are different then mine so test them out in a shop before you choose.

  • G6...better looking, better camera. fast charging and besides, why would you look for a 2014 phone: nostalgia?

  • Some one pls tell me Should i go for lg g6 or iphone 6s plus

  • Don't compare lg g6 to samsung s8. Not the same price range. Not the same SoC (821vs835) Lg v30 is real competitor to s8. I have chosen G6 against s7 for many reasons (18:9, HDR, Type-C, Wide angle cam...) Though s7 might have better camera and cpu(exinos). I have g6 for 4 months now. No complaints. No regrets. I am a "heavy user", so battery can't make it through the day, but quickcharge makeup for it. Performans is great. Eats everything i throw on it. One time i forced it too much with instant download of 7 torrents. It started tu lag. But i think every smartphon would have the same problem. Lg g6 is great phone for a great price. Don't complain about not having yet android Oreo update, s8 did not get it either. Yet. If your wallet allows you, go for lg v30, s8, huawei mate 10 pro... Just because someone have a problem with his phone, it does not mean that it is a common problem. (Sorry about grammar. Never learned english officially)

  • G6 is the better choice. Only the Note series from Samsung is good, other phones are overrated. Better save money and go for the G6 with two camera's on the back.

  • The LG website says 564ppi density

  • Most G6 has no image retention, but it seems there is a chance to get a unit with a bad screen.

  • I don't get it. All the websites, including gsmarena report this phone as having 564 dpi. The phone itself reports 640 dpi(I wrote some C# script - Screen.dpi). Which one is it?

  • Don't say meh performance because the g6 is as fast as my s7(exynos version) in day to day use. Sure the s8 is faster but also lots more expensive. I don't understand when people say last years tech is bad. So the s8 will be so bad next year when the s9 comes out? You get what you pay for. The g6 is a good smartphone with decent battery life and camera.

  • s8 camera is much better according to dxomark. I dont like samsung but the G6 is older chipset with Meh performance....compare the benchmarks. I wouldnt buy one unless its under $350.

  • LG G6 or Samsung Galaxy S8 ???

  • Definitely the G6. Cheaper, more value for money, much better camera.

  • love the g6, the screen is great, battery is more then ok for me (2 days, 6h+ sot). Calls are cristal clear. Camera is fast. Samsung s7 was 0,1 sec faster but that one I hated because my screen turned pink and battery life was in the end 1h sot. (Bought phone brandnew 4 (four) months ago. Samsung is good in the start but lifetime is very poor.) Its my first lg, will see if it lasts longer in build quality. First impression is very positive.

  • Lg g6 or samsung a8

  • It is true that we must wait until the end of June to get the Oreo update? If it is true, than LG is the bad company in the phones companies. ...Hope it is not.

  • LG g6+ is the world's ever WORST handset I ever used with A HEAVY PRIZE tag. Camera is of much cheaper quality even $100 handset will give a better quality picture than LG g6

  • the worst phone I ever owned the speaker sucks so I am going back to my good motorola

  • go buy and iCrap for all I care, you deserve nothing less

  • This is the example of troll

  • Will anybody pl.tell what is meant by image retention and bootlamp as I am thinking of buying this lg g6 but after reading about these two problems in this forum I am hesitant. Pl.help. Thanks in advance.

  • While Lg making good phones, except the bootloop parts, doesn't respect their users. Limited support, usually no updates or slow updates. Why to spent so much money when u can buy something else.

  • Bootloop is old news. LG phones are simply great.

  • LG G3 was a masterpiece, G4 classic,G5 eeer! and the G6 amazing even though I still feel it should have had a twin brother with the curvaceous screen(non flexible) named G6 curve. I hope they'll consider that in their next iteration.

  • Heard mostly from the trolls

  • Dont be silly . there is update

  • Has somebody experienced bootloop with g6? Cause my g4 bootlooped 2 month ago. Also i heard g5 is already start to booloop. But still i like lg and it look like i am gonna take a chance with g6. Maybe i am silly.

  • Image retention issue was there with my g4 & g5. G4 finally bootlooped. I sold g5 to a very cheap price. Issues with lg comes after normally one year. So still too early to predict about g6.

  • february

  • ugly ui icons (can't even do that right ...), weaker battery life compared to other flagships ... no thanks, bad support ., no thanks

  • There is a thread about this on XDA. This is a serious issue, as it affects one of their main selling points - wide angle camera. More trouble for LG, but they deserve it obviously.

  • When will Oreo come to LG G6 H870 (Europe)?

  • Price difference between G6, V30 and Pixel XL is so big... If cost the same I would pick Pixel because of future Android updates and better camera

  • Lg G6 or LG V30 or Google pixel XL

  • LG G6 wide angle camera with 2 versions and the one has poor image quality.the sharper version has 2.01 mm, the blurry one has 2.09 mm focal length.Mine is 2.09,phone is H870 Europe version.my wide angle pictures are blurry ..

  • The Phone is Great and has a nice design. The only problem is that its too delicate especially the back. Two weeks of usage and Phones Back was broken and i didnt even know how it Broke cause am too cautious with my phone. Just removed it out of my pocket and found it that way. You have to be very careful with this phone

  • Hi, Risto! I'm from Latvia, I was contacted by LG Latvia, they said everything is safe, you will get everything!

  • well i am buying one in a week..i am looking forward to it..

  • Can u share the link? N doesnit works on lg g6

  • I am fully satisfied with this phone. I just bought it a few weeks ago and it is great value for the money. It is crazy fast, takes great photos, the display looks awesome, has good battery life, the speaker is better than S8's and the design is neat.

  • another fortune teller!

  • Don't Buy this LG G6 phone You won't get updates

  • Yes, the European version is a so called international version so you will receive updates when LG brings them. It's not carrier dependent.

  • Yes, H870 is the European device and the latest update brought November security patches and Oreo upgrade is only weeks away. You also can get, if available in your country, H870DS (bigger internal memory and double SIM) which is meant for Russia market which is also weeks away from getting Oreo.

  • Hi I would like to buy this phone, but LG has left from Baltic market. In some local shops they still sell this phone. Do i still get updates ? Its Europe version h870

  • Thanks Aadrian for decent and proper reply.

  • The current price of the G6 is very appealing, so personally I would go for the G6 over the OnePlus. It is a beautiful device after all and it might get even cheaper now the G7 is coming in the next couple months.
