Отзывы о Смартфон LG V50S ThinQ 5G

Very bad camera. I bought it thinking the 13 megapixels would just be a huge improvement on my 5 mp HTC Shift.

No crispness to any photo. Fuzz ball once you zoom in at all. I was absolutely shocked. I loved the phone side. Very fast, well put together, decent battery life and just a nice looking screen. But the pictures just shocked me. I went back in figuring I'd get a new phone and the gal at Sprint told me they looked fine and that's how they always looked. She had that phone and her telling me she was happy was one of the reasons I bought it. I took a picture with my old HTC, showed it to her zoomed in and compared it to one we took in the store. We then went to a display phone to see if it did the same. Exactly as bad. She is now realizing what she has. On top of that I actually do shoot kids ice hockey pictures with a Canon 50D so I wasn't expecting a lot out of a phone but this thing is woefully inadequate. Trying to Google some opinions on the bad camera in this phone seems to be a problem so I was really thinking I had a bad phone. But I guess the search is disabled for problem searching or no one has a clue. A shame too as I ended up with the new HTC One and there's not a lot of difference other then the camera is great on the HTC.

Happy with the phone. I hope this one does not give up in six months as the G4 did. But that is the protection of buying from Amazon, great customer service. Battery is good, found no difference to my other 3000mah phones. It takes getting used to the smaller screen. Fingerprint is very conveniently located. Build is good, I have not noticed any issues. Wide angle camera so innovative. Battery off course removable. Speaker very good. Micro SD slot. Takes a nano SIM. Original charger cable very flimsy.

I bought this at local Bestbuy, not on Amazon.
I had the original HTC EVO 4G, and loved that phone. switched to Samsung Galaxy II Epic Touch 4G and was not happy with the GPS on that phone. now I got this and i like it.
Pro
- quad core, the other quad core is Samsung Note II, but it's too pricey.
- 2 GB RAM. this helps a lot.
- GPS is working much better vs the Samsung Galaxy II.
- you can say words to take picture; i.e. cheese or lg and so on. camera quality is pretty good too.
- overall, happy with everything else.

Cons -
- since many people really care for this here are few.
- Volume is low - both ways via headphone jack and Bluetooth. I use the phone to listen to music while i drive, and both HTC Evo 4G and Samsung Galaxy II had great volume output. However, this phone I have to go few extra click on dashboard to get the higher volume. This is a big minus but don't want to take a star away for this one.
- WiFi is weak, the same place I used to get 1 or more bars, now it looses signal saying no wifi in range (this is at home). Due to this I may have to move my router around which is very painful since I have a good setup in place.
- not sure why but WiFi keeps turning on, I've played with the settings but can't keep it off. this is an issue when I am not at home/work and it keeps on searching for the wifi.
- NO SD Card. why would u do that. I know apple doesn't have one, but there are too many people buying iPhone anyways, who doesn't care for money or technology. My dad had LG Optimus 3G the old one, and that phone sucks. you are competing against mainly Samsung and HTC; you should have put a memory card. I have 32GB SDHC card which is now useless, but it was great to have for music. I have 2 young kids, and take many videos and pictures, which fills up space very fast. Should have put the SDHC card slot.
- 4G LTE is going to take a long time to come to my area.

Unfortunately I had to spend 5 days in hospital, and had to cover the boredom side of it. So I got my LG G5, the spare battery and charger, and loaded the phone with 12GB Data. And oh boy did I use it, nearly non stop for five days.
I was using one battery while the other was charging, so never ran out of juice. Was streaming movies like mad with my Amazon Prime Membership, and it NEVER cut down or overheated.
Was taking anything I can throw at it, and never had any time down, and I am almighty impressed by the performance of this phone, especially after owning a LG G3 which decided it was too hot for recording a few seconds of video.
This is the best phone that I've ever had, and will stick with it for as long as I can

This is a beautiful phone it's a shame that you have to put a case on it but with glass on the back and front you take a risk if you don't glove it up.
This is a pro grade phone that's suitable for power users and causal ones alike pair it up with a Bluetooth keyboard and mirror the screen to a large screen and you can get some serious work done.
It's 13mp camera is capable of taking beautiful shots but only with tinkering with the settings which is a shame because the software needs some serious optimization the other gripe I have is being stuck on 4.1.2 THIS IS A FLAGSHIP PHONE and should be able to get updates despite the LG having the G pro and g2.
I've had for almost a year now and this phone still a powerhouse beast if your on the fence about getting this for the price it's at now no Brainer in my opinion a WIN.

I have had this phone for a little over 1 months and I want to say that it works very well. It suits all my needs as a power-user. I have only given it 3 stars because I woke up one morning to see that the camera protection was shattered. I've read about this issue and there has been several users complaining about the fact that with a bit of pressure from the finger the rear-camera protection cracked. I reported it to LG (to use the warranty) over a week ago and haven't gotten any reply. I am going on vacation soon and I don't even have a camera now. I am sorry It deserves at least 4 star but this basic issue with the rear camera protection glass and the POOR customer service comes with the phone.

I loved this phone super fast great camera! But if you carck you phone you won't be able to use the spot you cracked like let's say you crack you phone at the bottom you won't be able to use anything below

Despite purchasing what was listed as a UK device through Amazon UK and purchasing a 'Fulfilled by Amazon' item the G5 that has arrived is the international version which poses some questions about warranty in the UK.
However, as the international version is dual SIM, which I wasn't expecting but is something I'm considering as a bit of a bonus, I'm not unhappy.
When I get my head around Marshmallow, I may add an actual review of the 'phone.

Freezes a ton now, have had it 4 months and it is slow apps close all the time, camera is sad, i really miss my iphone!!!!

Phone works fine.
However, it appears not to be a new phone. It has another number in it, and clearly was a Vodaphone previously with an app that will not delete. Also has no wi-fi calling option.
Apart from that, works ok

I love the camera, battery life and overall look and feel of this phone. What I don't like is that the Facebook application takes forever to load on this phone. I don't like that when texting, the cursor often jumped back to the beginning of my text message thus splitting my word up between the front of the message and somewhere near the bottom when I started typing that word. Yes, an update was released to fix that issue, but now the text auto-spell feature of the phone is messed up. Apparently the programmers can't get their fixes right. I've never had these issues with my previous two smart phones. I'd recommend this phone after all of the fixes have been released. I think it'll be very much worth the purchase.

Cannot find any faults as yet with it and very pleased . Definitely an upgrade on sound by Bluetooth to my van's audio over G4 and that is without any add-on from B&O . Probably the Samsung better looking phone but that is why it is so much more expensive than LG . Not a phone tech but it does what I want it for very well .

I'm going to make this review short and sweet. First off, I simply love this phone and is the best smart phone I've ever owned. It's smokin' fast and multitasks like no ones business. The interface is very user friendly and navigating around is a cinch. The only reason I gave this four stars rather than five was for the camera. Don't get me wrong, it takes good pictures but for a 13 megapixel camera it should take incredible pictures that blow even the Iphone cameras out of the water and that it does not. Other than the that this phone simply rocks. Quit thinking about it and get it!

Arrived when I was told it would. Looked perfect until I removed a small code sticker to find it covering a nick in the seal on the metal part of the phone. Can live with it as it is minor but disappointed. Other than that phone works well, screen is clear, photos are great. Enjoying using it.

Due to my uncle getting nailed for over 250 a month in bills and the third person not helping with payments at all, we had to make the switch from Verizon to Sprint, this is my second time coming to Sprint so I was very familiar with their contracts and plans. When doing so, I wanted to do my research and see which phone would do it for me before we went out to do the switching of our accounts. After comparing specs, I decided to look at the LG Optimus G. Now LG has a reputation for making shoddy cell phones, so it was to my surprise that this phone had specs better than the Samsung Galaxy S3 in terms of sheer processing power, and doubly surprising that I was even considering an LG product in the first place as I know that in the past their phones really did suck.

That being said, we had trouble getting the ball rolling at Best Buy, so we ended up going directly to the Sprint store down the road to see if we could get different results. I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that I could get the cost of the phone I wanted covered by trade-in credit from the RAZR M. I fiddled around with the display models of the Optimus G, and ended up liking how it felt. My uncle got the original iPhone 4 for himself, so he was good to go. I purchased black Otterbox armour and screen protectors for both our phones that same day, therefore one of the caveats about the phone was immediately solved. It had the Jellybean update ready to install almost out of the box too. Once everything was set, I was ready to fiddle around with the interface of the Optimus G and tweak it as I saw fit. Right off the bat I noticed aside from it's size (and let's face it this badboy is pretty massive, the bezel is also pretty thick too) is how fast this phone goes, good God, this thing CRANKS! Simply put, the quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 clocked at 1.5 Ghz per core makes this badboy an absolute behemoth!

Want to present an argument that a quad-core processor is better than a dual-core processor? This phone makes that case quite easily. It goes from screen to screen, and multitasks easily without breaking a sweat. Literally everything was as smooth as honey butter. Only a few times did I encounter some strange problems but I think that was due to the programs I had downloaded being optimized for older hardware and not even being bothered to be updated, and Facebook did freeze this phone on me once, but after I restarted the phone (which literally took seconds), things were back to being butter smooth and working as perfectly as the Boston Pops Orchestra playing the 1812 overture on the 4th of July!

Over time, I noticed once I figured out how to stop tasks from running in the background, how much smoother things go when compared to even the great RAZR M, a phone I reviewed previously and absolutely adored when I was with Verizon. The extra gig of RAM compared to the RAZR M really helps bolster this phone's case to be the primary phone of choice for those wishing for a powerhouse. It helps that the screen is nice and big at 4.7" and the resolution of 1280 x 720 is crystal clear to boot. Games like The Simpsons Tapped Out, Angry Birds, and 3D Golf all operate honey butter smooth with little to no frame-rate drops whatsoever, and the bigger screen affords me a clearer view with The Simpsons Tapped Out allowing me to more easily manipulate things around the virtual Springfield I am building in the game.

The 13 megapixel camera is snappy, and does it's job very well. Pictures are taken very quickly and I have yet to take a dud with this one yet. Simply a very nice camera built into this thing. Can't believe I am able to effortlessly take pictures in the blink of an eye now. Video comes out clear as well, with little to no stutter whatsoever. This obviously was not a throw-together at the last minute plan either, this was all planned out from the get go. LG went all out here and it shows.

There are three cons, with one of them being sorted out immediately after purchasing the Otterbox Armour case which the representative handling me and my uncle's contract was nice enough to install for us. The Otterbox Armour case actually smooths out one of the caveats with the phone, the way the camera piece sticks out from the backside of it creating a nasty bump. My advice? If you're getting this phone, do not hesitate to get the Otterbox Armour case as it is feather light and actually makes you feel like your phone will be safe regardless of what hell it goes through. It helps that it has rubber padding that allows easy access to the USB Port, Headphone Jack, and protects the power and volume control.

The second con that is a minor one for me, and a major one for others is that you can't remove and replace the battery of this phone yourself. That in itself isn't as big a deal as the battery is pretty solid. I have gotten 8 - 11 hours out of it with heavy use and it could go for another hour before the phone shuts off completely I am sure, the lowest I ever let the battery go was about 11%. Still, a drastic improvement over other phones I had before so all in all I'm satisfied with this aspect.

The other major flaw, however, is what you see is what you get with the onboard memory. It has 32 Gigs built in to the phone itself with 25 gigs of it being usable, much like the Wii U. **LOL** But unfortunately that's it, the Sprint version of the Optimus G has no expandable memory whatsoever (only AT&T has the version with the microSD slot) which is truly a shame. Why they didn't make it that you can use microSD cards with this version is beyond me. Still, 25 Gigs for now is plenty of space to expand for the time being and I don't see myself using up all the space anytime soon. It would've just been nice to be able to put my 8 Gig microSD card in just to access all the songs from it off the bat. It also sucks that you can't remove the battery and replace it yourself either.

Those things aside though, this is such an awesome phone. It is of current one of the best on the market in the US, with the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 being the only other phone with a quad-core processor. Even then, if you can't afford the SGN2 you're not missing much. This is a wonderful phone with all the bells and whistles one can ask for. One of the two caveats is easily solved with the right case (camera), and the other one (storage) still gives you a fair bit of space to use if so needed. I recommend this phone in a heartbeat to anyone wanting a rock solid phone with a ton of processing power that will likely last a long time until the next upgrades come around.

Update: I had my first Optimus G die on me months ago after battery dropped to 0%, got a second one as a refurb. Worked very well, but let's just say my uncle was not very responsible with paying the phone bill whatsoever, and as a result, I ended the partnership of being on the same bill with him; meaning I no longer have this phone, am on my own bill again and have upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy S4.

I have only had the LG G5 a few weeks and am impressed with the speed of it as well as the camera, which apart from using Word, is my main usage for a mobile phone. I am still getting used to it as it is somewhat different to the old LG G2 I had. It works well in Wi-Fi mode and even using the Data function when there is no Wi-Fi available it is pretty impressive. I like the wide angle camera on the back, which is great for landscapes and the video recorder produces very good results.. The call quality is good and the speaker is plenty loud enough.

I've had this phone for six months and its breaking down. I keep getting the "unfortunatley the process com.android.phone has stopped working". I can't even get the factory reset since this error is so problematic its shutting down that possibility.

Up to this point it was good with fast internet. I used it for a lot of music and was not as happy with its features as I was with my old blackberry. No external pause button made me have to fumble through several screens to stop and greet a passing friend.

Overall, due to this, I will not buy another of these phones.

I am not a smartphone expert, so I won't be commenting on the G5 in much detail.
I really like it, it is very quick and the cameras are amazing, with the second, ultrawideangle, camera and the ability to take photos in auto, semi-automatic and manual modes as well as JPEG and RAW. Compass and changeable battery were also high on my list.
The refurbished phone came in perfect condition with the operating system flawlessly working. Screen looked pristine and battery life seems amazing, too. Just nothing to fault here!

Just got this phone as my 2 year upgrade. Read a lot on this one and others on sites like Engadget, Cnet, etc. And wow, this phone is everything as advertised. The feel of the phone is great, and the screen is fantastic looking at only half brightness. The speed at which you can switch between apps and screens is very impressive, and web pages load incredibly quickly, even on just 3G. On WiFi its even better. The battery life thus far has impressed me, it is much better than my old HTC Evo Shift. Plus the nice thing about the Sprint version, is there is virtually no carrier bloatware, except for Sprint ID which is actually useful for managing your account. The memory is about 25gb due to whatever space the OS takes up, so its not a full 32gb, but should be plenty.

Definitely a great phone, and for just $100-$150 you cannot go wrong at all with this one.

Would buy again. Fantastic product. I waited for it to drop in price (it was never worth more than £400). Build issues were definitely a problem with some of the earlier models and there was definitely some bad 'uns but the European batches seem to be holding their ground. Not a very popular device and probably not the best looking but certainly the best spec for a phone from a decent manufacturer. The always on display and wide angle lens being my favourite. As the battery can also be replaced it should definitely hold its resale value too.

First off, the display is absolutely stunning. Text is very sharp, colors really stand out as well. I haven't made too many calls with this phone yet, and they were average quality. However, my house has awful coverage. Next, this phone has to be one of the fastest phones out there. The quad core processor will blow your mind. Battery life is also good. You will be able to get a day at a minimum with moderate to heavy use. The design is really nice, looks very professional and is thin and light. However, this phone is very slippery so you might want to get a case for extra grip. The camera is very good, but I was expecting more out of a 13 megapixel camera. It performs more like an 8 megapixel, which isn't too shabby. The on screen keyboard is easy to use because of the large 4.7 inch display. This size is perfect for me, it is nice and big but will still fit in the pocket. Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich is nice, but I am looking forward to the Jelly Bean update. 32 gb of storage is very good, however it is not expandable memory. (There is no sd card slot.) This doesn't bother me, but for the people that use a ton of memory on their phone, you might want to look at other devices. The bottom line is this phone is awesome. You will not regret buying it, and I strongly recommend it.

It took a few weeks to arrive but now I've used it for a few days it's a very good phone. I'm a light user and I get about three days without having to charge it. The phone is very quick and lag free and the display clear and bright even in bright sunshine. There is plenty of memory for apps etc. and it took a 64 gbyte memory card without any complaints. All in all an excellent phone especially for the price as it's comparable to a Samsung S7 - apparently.

The LG Optimus G is sleek and thin and its overall design puts GS3 and GS4 to shame. I was very excited when I got this phone about six months ago for only fifty bucks with a renewed contract. It was faster than my father's GS4 and it's camera had more mega pixels. Six months in, I cannot say that I am so happy. Despite its 13 megapixels it takes horrid pictures. Honestly, my HTC Evo phone (of 8 megapixels) took better photos. This phone often takes pictures with a white backlight. Worse and most disappointing of all is its touch sensitivity and screen change sensitivity. When I switch my phone's direction it takes the screen a long while to switch with it, if at all. And yes I have already tried to recalibrate its sensor sensitivity. I also have a lot of difficulty connecting to most wi-fis that are not my home wi-fi. I cannot connect to my University's wi-fi at all. I went to the University IT department and after trying to connect it for an hour and half they said that they could not fix it because the issue was not on their side. It turns out it was an issue with my phone model. About two weeks ago it started going crazy too. I would get the little "Voice Command" every couple of seconds constantly and no matter what I was doing. I had to disable the Voice Command and when that did not work I had to factory reset my phone. And since the LG Optimus G only has internal memory that made backing up the information on my phone a lot more difficult. This was especially true for information that could not easily backed up through my email because the attachments were too big.

The phone looks shiny and new no but overall it is a crappy phone that scratches very easily.

An excellent handset bought to replace my ageing battered Galaxy S4. Advertised as refurbished so came unboxed and with just the usb cable. There wasn't a mark on it - it was like new. Very happy with the purchase. Great battery life and performance. One thing, which is not an issue for me but I thought I'd mention in case people were wondering, wireless charging is NOT supported since it has an aluminium body. It does have NFC though which works fine despite this.
