LG G5 Comes in Two Versions: It seems different parts of world are getting different LG G5 variants. Speaking of Modules, the main disadvantage of the modules on LG G5 is the fact that you have to switch off your LG G5 each time you want to try a new module. Modules are Gimmick? This is something we still doubt about it and we should wait to see what LG has prepared. (Update: It seems this feature is disabled by default, but you turn it On) But LG G5 doesn’t support the Adaptive Storage and you have to live with it. So, your internal storage may exceed up to 200GB of storage.

By the way, AOD can be turned off from the LG G5’s settings. We know, process and OS have been optimized for less battery consumption, but more battery capacity is always welcomed.Īlways On Display Battery Consumption: LG claims that the AOD is using just 1% of the battery power each hour. Less battery capacity: Battery has always been an issue, and LG has surprisingly reduced the battery capacity from 3000 mAh in LG G4 to 2800 mAh in LG G5. Since we are talking about the LG G5 pros, using the AOD you don’t have to turn on the screen to see the time, date and missed notifications, as the screen is always on and shows you the mentioned information. While Samsung Galaxy S7 lacks this feature, you get to control your digital appliances using a universal remote on your LG G5.Īlways On Display: This AoD feature is something we both like and dislike. Infra-Red Port: LG has not forgotten about the IR Blaster either. While Power Banks, Wireless Charging, Fast Charging are all great features for charging batteries, the option to remove the battery has always been the best and easiest solution. Removable Battery: LG is becoming the only manufactures not forgetting about removable batteries. LG calls these accessories LG G5’s Friends and some of his other friends are: LG 360 VR, LG 360 CAM and LG Rolling Bot. So far available modules for LG G5 are: LG Cam Plus, and LG Hi-Fi Plus.

But LG G5’s display is really great and the brightness is high enough to be able to read under the direct sun light.ĭual Rear Cameras: If you look at the back of the LG g5, you’ll notice there are 2 cameras there. It means you should expect a smooth experience and there shouldn’t be any problem running high graphics games with data and run multiple apps in the background.ĭisplay: Well, Samsung has always been the pioneer when comparing displays. Speed: LG G5 is using the Snapdragon 820 along with 4GB of RAM and runs Android Marshmallow with the optimized LG’s skin. LG’s latest flagship now feels premium in hand.
