Not the best low-light performer but better than most.

Although not in the same class of phones, if you are willing to settle on smaller 5.5-inch smartphones, you can also consider Pixel XL or Galaxy S7 Edge, which are phones that came out in 2016. We could probably talk about every little feature of LG V20 all day but really, wouldn’t you want to know how it compares to other similar-sized smartphones? In the 5.7-inch class, LG V20’s only competition are the last year’s Nexus 6P and Galaxy Note 5.

It is also the ONLY 5.7-inch “flagship” smartphone you can buy this year. With Galaxy Note 7 out of the way, LG V20 is a very impressive 5.7-inch phablet you can buy this year that comes loaded with features other flagships don’t offer. Battery life is the longest of all LG phones I have tried with an SOT (Screen-On-Time) of 6+ hours. LG V20 is probably LG’s best smartphone in terms of features, design, and also battery life. LG V20 also comes with a quad-DAC with a more powerful amplifier that’s capable of powering headphones (that usually require amps).

In this review of LG V20, we will be comparing its core features against other flagships like the Pixel XL, S7 Edge, Nexus 6P, and Note 5.įirst, LG V20 is a 5.7-inch phablet smartphone with 1440P IPS LCD w/ secondary screen, 2 back cameras (One F1.8 16MP and One 8MP F2.4 wide-angle), 1 front wide-angle camera (that also crops in), Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, removable back cover (made from aircraft-grade aluminum), 3200mAh removable battery, IR blaster, micro-SD card slot, and an active noise-cancellation microphone.
