3200mah seriously enough meh? running on 5.7" qhd
should be staying away from LG for the time being (coming from g4)

at least they finally broke the 3000 mAh barrier

after like 3 years of battery capacity being stuck at that ceiling it finally went up

now just need to hope that LG's version of nougat isnt like LG's version of marshmallow and the battery life should be in good order (asuming that 2nd screen doesnt suck too much power)

Hard to say. Android can be a battery sucker sometimes. The battery is not that big also.

I think with marshmallows things have improved significantly though LGs implmentation still has much to be desired. My G5 drained battery like water when in use and only the replaceable battery enabled me to survive one full day with it. That said , the 5.7 qhs screen will surely suck power not to mention the always on second screen :p

How is LG's homescreen these days? Is it functional? It's been a long time since I tried a LG phone.

At MWC 2016, users began fearing for the app drawer when both Samsung and LG's pre production flagships seem to not have it.

As we can see from the S7 and the G5, Samsung took the hint from the user feedback. LG didn't. Eventually (like, really, really, eventually), LG offered a launcher that had the app drawer back.

That aside, its more or less the same style of homescreen as every other android. i.e. just get a 3rd party launcher and dont worry about being forced to endure whatever the manufacturer slaps on the phone

tbh its not the homescreen that worries me, its LG's android skin in general. Samsung, Sony etc all seem to have much more lightweight skins compared to LG.

Can't comment on the V20 on Nougat yet as my last LG phone was using up to Lollipop only.

Probably V20 does much better on battery life and not so boring UI running on Android 7... :)

Am I coming back to LG V20 after my previous LG G Pro 2...?

Let's see how awesome the V20 is first after some reviews.. ...
