I've had my G5 for a couple weeks and absolutely love it. The pictures it takes are incredible. The screen is great. There is also plenty of RAM to multitask. I ended up purchasing the CAM plus friend. It adds an additional 1200mAH battery and an actual shutter button and zoom wheel. I absolutely hate zooming using the pinch feature. Having a zoom is so much better.
A+







The big 3 right now on sprint (not counting the iphone 5) would be the Evo LTE, Galaxy S3, and Optimus G. They are all similiar specs, size and OS. For the record I think Iphones are great devices I heard great things about the 5, however I'm going to just comment on the android phones.
Hardware: The Optimus G is a 4.7 inch device with a decently small bezel to keep its size down. It is plastic but extremely well feeling plastic, with glass on the back with a nice etched design. It has a great kind of solid feel to it that doesn't stop it from feeling premium. There is a power and volume buttons, sadly no camera button. I like the more square design of it, I'm not as much of a fan of the extremely rounded designs. It compared the to S3 and Evo is the most comfortable to hold. It has a better build quality feel than the S3 by far I think, and I would give edge to the Evo on the build quality though, they used some great materials.
Performance: Similar in performance, the Optimus obviously has the edge on specs, it has the faster quad core and it does rank higher in benchmarks. However games and applications don't really show much difference, nothing really uses any of them to their full potential. All of them are butter smooth with everything. The S3 and Optimus have the extra gb of ram, which isn't to much difference but you notice it at times.
Battery: This is a topic I really care about, it's hard for me to get behind a phone with a non-removable battery. I kept my galaxy victory for so long because the battery life was so great with the stock battery. The optimus G seems to be pretty close to matching that. The standby life is great, I had it sitting at work for like 5 hours with terrible service 0-1 bars and it used like 2%. Normally I am above 50% after a full day, not that I'm a power user but I use it a decent bit. Compared to the Evo and the S3, the Evo comes close that had pretty good battery but the S3 seemed to drain decently quicker compared to them. I use the Eco mode on my optimus though which manages the processor differently i guess, I see absolutely no difference in speed but battery is better though.
Screens: All are the same resolution, the Optimus uses a Super IPS i believe and it seems good enough. Colors look great and everything, the only problem is the automatic brightness is extremely passive and seems to not want to brighten up enough. Compared to the SLCD and the AMOLED it seems pretty par with them.
Software: Really this isn't a huge part as you can change alot of the software. However I like LG's default software, there is actually alot you can change with the homescreen layout that I'm used to seeing in homescreen replacements on the play store. It looks clean and doesn't really get in the way. EVO's software is alright, don't hate it or love it and the S3 seems to have the most bells and whistles when it comes to software, I have to hand it to them for that.
Summary: Compared to the S3 and EVO the Optimus G I think has the best feel in the hand, best performance, best battery life. It lacks a little bit on software but nothing big, wish it was made of aluminum or something but I understand not using that for signal issues.



The G5 is slightly better, although a battery now only lasts 6 months. It shuts down at 47% power.
I will not recomend LG phones to anyone, they look nice but dont walk the walk. A replacement battery every 6 months is a joke. Batteries swell inside the phone and dislodge the screen, which then causes other operating issues. I cannot turn the phone off with the on off switch. I have to remove battery. To switch back on I have to conect charger to mains. The volume button does not work. No chance of getting screen shots.
I have tried various barcode scanners but none work correctly.
If you are thinking of buying an LG phone, THINK AGAIN. They are poor quality and not up to the job.

The quad processor, 2 gigs of RAM and Ice Cream Sandwich software make the Optimus G amazingly fast, and I'm only running it on the 3G network. The conventional Android Facebook app that took my Evo 4G about five seconds and more to load, is now up and running on the Optimus G in two seconds. Click, look, and its on.
I can only imagine how monster fast this is going to become when the 4G LTE network kicks in.
The Optimus G also has an absolutely gorgeous screen. It's clarity, color accuracy, depth and brightness are teriffic and it shines through even the light of day. Most times I am running the screen at only half brightness.
The camera's image and color quality are EXCELLENT, really something to write home about. It's unlike any camera phone I've used in the Android world. At 13 megapixels it is beyond par with iPhone pix. I find that it handles low light better than most point and shoots did a year ago.
The battery lasts for two days at a time. That includes running a live wallpaper, picture taking, an hour of mp3s a day through Bluetooth headphones, texting, web surfing, social networking, calls, and running the alarm clock overnight.
Initiially, I had some dodgy audio on phone calls, but after a month, the calls are routine with no problem on either end of the line and no dropped calls.
The aesthetics of the phone are a very elegant, slim and tall, high gloss black case made of glass, front and back. It would be at home coming out of the breast pocket of a tux. And It resists smudges, front and back, EXTREMELY well. The build qualty is top notch, too.
I've found I can edit all seven screens with ease, rearrange their order easily, and share photos to texts and social networks simply and quickly. It also woks well with my Dropbox
The voice to text and voice search mechanisms are teriffic. There have only been a couple of translations that required a tweak in a month.
I also like the placement of the power, screen on/off button on the side (as opposed to the top). At 4.7 inches and tall, it lets me fire up the phone with one hand as I take it out of my pocket.

My G5 arrived in the afternoon around 6 and at first I was impressed as I unboxed it and set it up and mine mated up really well where the battery joins the body and at first I thought I had got a good one,boy was I wrong....
By 11 that night the power button had become loose and tacky and the finger print scanner failed to work completely and this in only it's first night,really LG how can you make a phone this poorly made??? Anyways mine is now going back to Amazon for a full refund and if you do a search the power button being loose is a common problem and so once I get my refund I may go to the HTC m10 cause they know how to build a proper phone,I had the HTC m7 and m8 and m9 and they never let me down they was built like tanks.
Sorry LG but for this money your phone should last longer than a night before it breaks,it ain't no flagship and so if you is reading this I'd say seriously don't bother cause for long term use this phone won't last....
Edit,I have now got a LG V10 from clove uk and it's far superior to the G5 and the v10 is far better built and just as fast as the G5 and the battery life is just as good also so I'd say get yourself a V10 instead and yes you won't be officially supported by LG in the UK because the V10 is a import but clove would honour the warranty anyways.
Updated2---,Since this review I had to send the LG V10 back as it became faulty and I then got myself a HTC 10 which I used for 5 months before getting myself another G5 from argos which has been working brilliantly and it seems LG have sorted the build quality issues out so I would recommend now the G5 and mine had the nougat update and it's running great also.
It's a very good smartphone with the added bonus of the removable battery.

The camera (with flash) takes nice enough pictures that I have no need to carry a dedicated point & shoot camera any more, and the call quality is decent.
However, as a smart device, this is where this thing rocks. A nice HD screen, that has responded well to my touch. A blazing fast quad core processor that I haven't been able to choke yet, even though I run it in Eco mode. Plenty of memory to download everything I want to use (unlike my previous entry level Androids, HTC Hero and Samsung Replenish). The interface is sweet and smooth.
A few minor deficiencies. Based on the release date, it would have been nice to have the latest version of Android, but maybe we'll get Jelly Bean at some point. The lack of a replaceable battery and memory card slot is notable, but may be part of what keeps this unit so slim. The battery concerns me most, since every phone I have had, needed to occasionally have the battery pulled to reset it... I hope this phone continues to be stable enough to avoid this need.
As far as battery life... Well, battery technology hasn't caught up with the needs of handheld computers yet (especially power houses like this), so you need to use some power management skills to maximize battery life to get through the day. I have an app to close data connections other than when I am using them, and periodically for updates (Juice Defender) and I have lowered the screen brightness a bit, and as mentioned use Eco mode. Even with these, I just make it through the day. If I get caught up in playing games, I need to plug it in once during the day to top it off.
If you are in the market for a powerful phone, and you can live with the inherent limitations mentioned above, this would be a great choice.

I do have 2 drawbacks to mention, firstly the battery life is just as curtailed as all other high end phones I have tried, running out during the afternoon unless topped up. In part this is due to background apps not closing, despite requesting they close, they then re-open. However, with Quick Charging mains charger and Quick Charging external battery pack, that is not a major issue.
The other drawback is its wifi connection to UK 5G broadband routers, such as the recent VirginMedia hubs, is only at about half the speed other phones can reach e.g. on a 153 Mb service my Galaxy S5 reaches 150 Mb but the LG G5 only about 70 - 80 Mb download speed. By the way, that is for this UK model. Earlier I briefly had a non-UK version of the LG G5 and that one did not even see the 5G network and so connected around 30 Mb to the 2G output, so I had to return that one as operating below standard.
Immediately before I was running an LG G4 now nearly 2 years old and that started overheating and switching off to protect itself on trips using SatNav, especially when charging. Hopefully this LG G5 won't do that - I have an extended trip next week and will update if any problem occurs with the G5.
But for now, two weeks into using it, I can only summarise by saying this LG G5 is so nice!!!
