Not happy with its decision to go modular with 2016's G5, LG has bounced back with a stunning, tall-screened phone in the G6. Our review sees it as one of the best phones you can buy right now. Then again, we said the same about the OnePlus 3T. The upgr...
Close calls must be made. The G6's screen is stunning, and the extra height but manageable width make it an intriguing choice. But the OnePlus 3T's fast charging edges it, as does its fingerprint free design for some.Both phones have the same processor, a...

The battery isn't removable and it no longer supports Friends (oh no). In every other respect the LG G6 is a big and bold upgrade over the LG G5, and we'd say it's by far the better phone. However, we'll know more when we've had it into our Test Centre fo...

When we first reviewed the LG G6, it was a very good phone at an unrealistic price point, compared to the rivals. At RRP, the LG G6 is the same as the superior HTC U11 and Sony Xperia XZ Premium, and just £30 behind the Samsung Galaxy S8. That's optimis...

The worst thing you could say about the G6 is that it brings only incremental upgrades to a device that runs on guts that might be outdated. In my opinion, though, you'd be wrong. I'm looking at the G6 in comparison to its older sibling the G5, and I have...

LG didn't do so hot in 2016. The LG G5 was supposed to be a cool modular phone, but the modular aspect never panned out, and the reviews were pretty negative. I didn't think the G5 was as bad as everyone else thought, but it was clearly not LG's best work...

Despite the mixed reactions from the G5, the G6 is not that. Definitely not missing the G5 but the G6 is a lot more ergonomic than the V20. The only thing missing is the Quad Hi-Fi DAC that the overseas version of the G6 has. LG knocked the G6 out of the...

If the G5 was the low watermark for LG's mobile division, you might think there was only really up to go for LG in 2017. The G6 can feel like a self-fulfilling prophecy that way: the narrative around the G5 was almost universally negative, and the idea th...
I'm loving the wider (longer?) screen, and LG's IPS LCD looks as good as ever. This works for me, Good battery life, if not exceptional. If you're in the US, you get the bonus of wireless charging, LG claims the G6 stands up to a drop pretty well, and it'...
While the battery life is solid now, it's not amazing, and I think a screen of this size warrants a bit more battery just as a futureproofing measure. 3500 or 3600mAh would have seemed more appropriate, 64GB should be standard on a $650phone in 2017. If O...
You may be thinking "That's it? That's the whole review?" (OK, maybe you aren't, but this one felt short to me when I was writing it.)But I think it's a good sort of 'that's it.' The G6 isn't the most exciting phone we're going to see in 2017, but it's a...

Last year's LG G5 ( review ) was a failed attempt at a modular smartphone, there are no two ways about it. The modular attachments, ironically called ‘Friends', were anything but friendly to use. Thankfully, it looks like LG has realised the error of its...

After using the phone, I am pretty convinced that LG's decision to not make another modular flagship smartphone this year was a good one. To top it off, I am glad that LG has decided to price the G6 aggressively, at least as far as flagship smartphone pri...

The spring smartphone flagship season is upon us, and LG is coming out swinging with their brand new LG G6, the successor to last year's modular LG G5.While we quite enjoyed the innovation that the G5 offered LG G5 Review and Giveaway LG G5 Review...
The LG G6 is LG's most refined smartphone yet. It's a real competitor to the Galaxy S8 and Google Pixel.The main draws for buying the G6 are the price (slightly cheaper than the Galaxy S8 and Pixel in most markets), the wide-angle cameras, the software tw...

The G6 is LG's latest flagship smartphone. For the new model, LG has abandoned the G5's modular concept and has instead designed a device that offers a water- and dust-proof body and a 5.7" QHD+ display with an unusual 18:9 aspect ratio.In the camera depa...

The LG G6's main selling point is its secondary camera that offers the convenience and flexibility of a super wide-angle at the press of a button. However, it also comes with extensive manual controls and good video quality. If the sub-par image processin...

In December, I reviewed the second of LG's biannual flagship phones for 2016, the V20. It was a device that I was really impressed with, so naturally, I was really excited to see what the company had in store for the G6.And of course, everything is diffe...
There's no question that the LG G6 is a great phone. It has a beautiful design, a great camera, and a vivid display, all in a body that fits comfortably in the hand.The biggest problem that I have with it is the Snapdragon 821 chipset. I'm not sure how I...

Let's get this out of the way first: the LG G5 was a massive disappointment. LG tried to do something unique with the phone's modular design, but ended up offering an impractical device with poor battery life and underwhelming build quality. It wasn't sur...
Expansive, highquality display. LG's best phone design yet. Water resistant. Dual camera solution is handy. Gimmicky modular system is gone, leading to better battery life...
Hardware and performance straight out of last year. LG's software needs a lot of polish. Camera is good, but can't match the best and is missing features included in the G5...

LG and Samsung have unveiled their latest phones, and since we spent enough time to come up with near-final conclusions, let's compare the two hottest phones in the “large display” category. The LG G6 and the Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ are leading a new push f...
If you ask us: Galaxy S8 vs. LG G6, which is best? This article should give you enough information to make an informed decision. Because every user has a unique set of needs, budget, and preferences, there is no “best phone,” there is only a “best phone f...

Note: This comparison was made using a pre-production LG G6 running close-to-final software. While not much is expected to change for the final version of the phone, we've still decided not to display any benchmark results or charts. We'll update the com...

Given the points that I laid out throughout this comparison, I know that picking between the LG G6 and the LG V20 can be a tough choice. Both are premium, high-end phones that have a lot to offer. The situation on pricing doesn't make choosing any easier...

Second best. Also ran. Little brother. Lesser than.If you're looking at the mobile landscape today, this might be what you think of the LG G6. Message boards everywhere are filled with potential customers asking “why would I buy an LG G6 when the Samsung...
I can comfortably sit here and say the LG G6 is a good phone. It might even be a great phone and it's one of your best options right now. But, we're only six months into the year. We still have releases from Motorola, OnePlus, Samsung, Apple, and more on...

2017 will likely go down in smartphone history as the year when the Samsung Galaxy S8 and the LG G6 seriously disturbed the waters with their arrival, marking a paradigm shift for smartphone design. They are flashy, they look cool, they have top-end inte...

No doubt about it – these two are the best of the best Android devices on the shelves at the moment. Both Samsung and LG have put their hearts in the respective flagships and the results of that are visible – there's hardly an aspect in which either phone...

It's a new year, and with it comes a new LG G-series Android flagship smartphone. While the G5 last year was swell enough to hold its own against the top-end competition, it was clearly not at the top of the bunch. Sure, we gave LG kudos for taking a risk...

There are two highly probable reasons why you might be reading these lines right now. One: you're torn between the LG G6 and the LG G5, and two: you're already a G5 owner who's wondering whether upgrading is worth it.If you belong to the former camp and y...

The LG G6 features a dual-camera setup with two 13Mp sensors coupled to either an f/1.8 image-stabilized lens for its primary camera, or to a second f/2.4 wide-angle lens, without autofocus, as an alternative option. Tested using the primary camera, the L...

Let's say that you're looking for a new Android phone, and around $500 is all you're willing to spend. Until recently, one of your best options would have been the LG G6 – a feature-packed, water-resistant handset with attractive design and a versatile d...

These here are two very different beasts, both very much worth owning at the price of around $500 they currently go for. But depending on what kind of user you are, one could be better suited for your needs than the other.One of the top reasons to go with...

When it comes to buying a new phone, it's safe to say that reviews play a large part. Without early reviews – delivered just after a phone is announced or before it goes on sale – it's difficult to judge whether a phone is truly worth pre-ordering or buyi...

Budget, mid-range, flagship smartphones… there are plenty of smartphone options out there these days. We've reviewed a number of LG smartphones in the past and our LG G6 review takes a look at one of the company's latest to see how it stands up to previou...

Like other Android smartphone flagship devices, the LG G6 is a solid choice. The larger screen resolution in a smaller form factor definitely gives it a leg up, and the HDR10 and Dolby Vision support are nice added features as well.*We were sent a demo un...

What used to be Samsung 's stomping grounds is now being taken over by LG. In the absence of the Note 8, which launched in New York earlier this month, the talk of IFA 2017 is, without doubt, the new LG V30.We had the opportunity to use the LG V30 for s...
There you have it, our look at the LG V30 vs LG G6. It should be clear to anyone looking at these two devices, that the V30 offers the superior experience. It just has more features and better specs, and it's arguably a nicer-looking phone than the LG G6...

Glass meets glass in our next comparison where it is the LG G6's turn to shine. While its 2016-grade chipset hardly compares against the blazing Bionic processor of the iPhone 8, the G6 one ups Apple's handset with a dual camera, a taller, high-res displ...
Great camera dynamic range, Smooth 60fps 4K video, Good battery life, Coherent interface and app ecosystem, 64GB base storage, Very compact for the screen size, Good pricing, Secondary wideangle camera, Rich in options manual camera mode...
When all is said and done, the iPhone 8 betters the G6 in a few key areas like camera quality, battery life, basic storage, processing speed and LTE network compatibility. And it should, since it is the more expensive one, starting at $699, against the LG...

We regularly like to compare cameras between the latest smartphones, and there's a very good reason for that. Despite all the extra features, fancy screens and loud speakers, the camera is still likely the most important feature of any phone for most peop...
At the end of our test we have a winner, but not by a long shot. The HTC U11 has pulled ahead in 4 tests, while the OnePlus 5 comes in second place with 3 wins. Samsung's Galaxy S8 and LG's G6 both tie for third with a single win each, and these results a...

LG's flagship G Series handsets haven't been performing well, especially for the last 3 years. I personally didn't find any good smartphone from LG after the G2. LG G4 was reaching out for it, but it somehow couldn't perform as a package. The modular desi...

The LG G6 fits in your hand. That's an LG G6 impressive feat for a smartphone with a 5.7-inch display. In addition, the G6 includes many of the features we liked about LG's previous flagships, such as dual rear camera sensors, while adding new elements li...
