G6

Tried out both the G6, P10+, S8 and S8+ at a singtel shop. Decided on the G6. For me, it just fits perfectly in the hand with very little bezel. The P10+ feels a bit clunky compared to the others though build quality is still good. S8/S8+ screen is stunning, really beautiful but phone feels a bit slippery. Furthermore, the G6 cameras are really superb, on casual testing, the G6 and S8/S8+ main cameras feels around equal but the G6 has the extra wide angle camera. I didn't get to try the DAC but that was also a big selling point for me. All in all, seeing the G6 in person helped me confirm my decision, it's a really good phone and a valid alternative to the S8. The singtel salesperson said he guesses that the S8 will be $120 more than the G6 for same contract and the S8+ will be another 130 more but he said can't confirm yet.

Went out for a family outing today and get to try out the battery life and camera of the G6.

Battery life confirmed much better than my old G3. From 3pm to 10pm, battery is currently at 55%.My kid used my phone for youtube and pokemon go.

The wide angle camera is very useful. Manage to capture more from the same location (I compared it to the wife's iphone)

Confirmed no regret buying this beauty.

Anyone able to advise at this stage, lg g6 better or v20? I'm quite disappointed that lg deviated from its norm of having removeabke battery... Or is it more worth waiting for v30

Don't forget that the actual App screen size is just 5.5" on G6 after the OSB appears on the bottom of the screen.:s8:

With physical Navigation keys design, you get a true 5.7 App screen. :s8:

That tiny 0.2" does make a lot of differences in term of visual!

That's the disadvantage of OSB verses physical Navigation keys. !

Beauty (OSB) verses Practicality (Physical Navigation keys)! Your choose and preferences! ;)


That's what turned me away from Sony to LG years back... The G3 5.5" was a true 5.5" for the buttons can be hidden... Somehow they seem to have taken a step back with G6 with regards to

G6 is a good buy over S8. Absolute price is very competitive vs s8.
Not to mention g6 is made in Korea.
S8 like most Samsung things is actually made in PRC but want to charge 'super premium price'. I don't think the local version of s8 is using the 835 also but rather using their own in house processor.
