LG Q9 - User Reviews

  • Like a G6... Like a G6... Remember that song?

  • Yes. LG is lost...

  • possesso samsung s5 of the first ones who came out with snapdragon 821 never have given me problems nor in community and durability i have daily use at date of today including my partner with android 6.0 durability confirmed.

  • Revamped G6. Peculiar.

  • Looks good but g6 is better

  • Shit I was gonna go back to LG but this is making me think about it more had the LG 6 and loved it ...wtf....!!

  • >Camera improvements means >price but it only serves good to people who likes to take photos, better specs w/o decent/best camera is enough to lower the devices price, we need flagship specs without decent camera

  • It looks nice. I used LG-4 few years ago,but I've been using Samsung 8+ instead. Anyway, I'm curious, why LG still use Android 8 for the year 2019 for their new products. I think, they should be more up-to-date by using Android 9 to keep their loyal users.

  • The phones LG are making in 2019 are so much different than the phones LG was making in 2004 and 2005 (like the LG C1100 and LG B2050). It's shocking.

  • For that price, looks like they are trying/going to get rid of the mobile division instead...

  • and why would you need a 2k display on such device? well they just trying to get rid of old panels and processors from G4 and 5

  • Snapdragon 821 if significantly more power hungry, so a tiny advantage in processing power doesn't justify having it over a newer non-flagship chipset. ESPECIALLY with a pathetic battery like theirs

  • Why is everyone blaming the chipset? I dunno if you have never had a snapdragon 660 device, but 821 is evidently better than 660. Just because 660 hast sightly better power performance doesn't mean it is completely better than 821. 8xx series are and were flagship chipsets. Usually manufacturers don't use past year flagship chipsets so I am really impressed LG does. Only complain is price and battery.

  • 1) Looking for design most important 2) Without battery power no sale in india Every one need 4000 mAh battery minimum 3)Dual camera 4)Processor Qualcomm 600 series below 20k 4gb 32gb , 4gb 64gb , 6gb 64gb dual sim + sd card 5) all nontch display...

  • They should be crazy to sell this 2016 processor with $400 , when I can buy Mi8 (256 -6) GB with $385 , wake up LG we can buy phones way better with your price ....

  • 2019 but spec 2017 and 400 euro? Really LG?

  • 1)Need back dual camera, 2)3800mAh or 4000mAh most important battery otherwise no sale 3)Front 13mp or 16mp requirements most important Qualcomm snapdragon Processor 670 or 675 or 710 needed 4) Display FHD+ OLED supper. 6gb 64 gb and 6gb 128gb Price 24000 and 27000

  • In 2019, still battery for 3000 mah? really? Not joking?

  • Yeah Lg marketing style crappy intro january and released july.....wow

  • Why announcing it in January if you're going to release it in July?

  • I guess LG bought a lot of SD821 and this is their way of disposing it. Ridiculous!

  • Snapdragon 821 consumes a lot of energy this is why snapdragon6xx is better or they could at least use snapdragon710 at this price

  • No why is it a joke ?? Snapdragon 821 is still a lot more powerful than any of the 4 series they can release in 2019 And I am using an OnePlus 3 now and have no trouble at all running through all daily tasks and the phone didn't slow down at all .....821 is actually more powerful than any of the 6 series out there now .....there are speedtests by android authority Gary's videos shows that

  • LG V series and Sony Premium series is a miracle

  • LG and HTC are the most insane manufacturers out there...they are tying so hard to fail as much as possible. Seriously, WTF?

  • Why is everyone complaining about the SoC? SD 821 is actually good enough. As an owner of an LG G6 and a Xiaomi Mi A2 I can tell you SD821 is faster and smoother than SD660 or the overrated SD625. Is a big step considering that LG Q6 and Q7 used very terribñe chipsets (SD 435 and a crappy Mediatek Helio)

  • WHy they would release this when the Lg G6 is priced at 250$ ?

  • Snapdragon 821 in 2019???? 😑😑

  • I admire LG Device and Specs but i'm wondering why LG cant Expand their Battery to 4000mAh or up. That's the only concern i have with LG Phones.

  • 3000 mah battery???? Good Night LG

  • Why snapdragon 821??? Why 3000 mah battery??? Even OnePlus 3T struggles a little with SD 821 and 3400 mah... because it's a 2016 flagship... Releasing a mobile with SD 821 in 2019 is a joke...

  • The device is for laughs by a ridiculous company, terrible battery, very expensive. lg close mobile parts

  • Who in lg suggests these kind of useless specs before on production.they are just wasting time and money in giving useless out of trend specs

  • LG V20 has same processor with Pathetic Battery Backup so dont waste single penny on this !!

  • i was hoping the Q9 have something like a 5.5-5.8 inch 18:9 with a new 10nm SD 6xx with all the good stuff from Q8 and Q7, nfc, bt5, waterproof, sd slot, jack nah it just have another hideous notch with SD 821

  • LG why? :)

  • I strongly believe that LG creators not making good batteries for ALL LG phones are just spy for s******.

  • seriously LG , WTF !!

  • What's the point with this Q9 when u can buy V30 with better specs and design at this price? I rather buy G6 with 280 euro and no notch.

  • *ancient

  • this phone is so 2018

  • Just don't see the point of this device

  • LOL WTF, the andient, ultra power hungry SD 821, and combined with a 3000 mah? And a 2.2 camera? Complete disaster, another POS from LG and extremely overprised at that. Audio quality is a great thing and all, but that's just not enough.

  • With a 6.1" qHD+ IPS LCD screen, a 3 year old flagship processor and only a 3000 mAh battery, this phone won't last very long

  • not bad, not bad, but for that price! nah.

  • Definitely a good set. Due to be launched in India on 27th March 2019 at Rs 20k. I have always loved LG.

  • But little larger 5k and endurance 150+ for a couple more gr if you have problems with that try to eat some greens

  • There is not much space for big bateries if we want good components inside. Thats why batery goes one day. need to put it to computer to charge overnight whit slow 4g internet on.

  • We need notch-less phones.

  • Yeah man, I'm too frustrated with these notches. I have Moto G5 Plus and now I'm thinking of upgrading my phone but these notches make me sad.

  • Oh god! What did we do to deserve all these notches:(

  • Its too late ,almost 2018 overed.. i think its total waste of time and money now....and very hard for LG to compete players like xiaomi, vivo and oppo and brother rivalary samsung who have vast choice with exceptional specs phones in midrange sagement and strong customer base....

  • We are waiting oreo still for G5 H850tr. You are lazy about update..

  • Notch again! Ugly ugly look like chinese phone! Please stick to g6 or v30 design!

  • LG is finished, they give up in Indonesian market by leaving their business and go back to Korea.

  • Lg g6 had AOD in an ips panel.

  • AOD in a IPS panel, never heard of. They may correct it and announce it's gonna have an AMOLED one. if it's the case, I would be interested

  • Then what is up with Samsung Galaxy Note9? iPhone XS Max? Pixel 3 XL? Numbers are not everything.

  • 8MP selfie camera in late 2018?

  • LG Q9 with 3550mAh and LG V40 3300mAh why LG why. LG G8 need 4000+mAh.
