After contacting LG UK I was informed that ... - Phone not fit for purpose. After 8 months the phone developed a significant fault (flickering screen) this means the phone cannot be used. the phone also over heats which is not good. After contacting LG UK I was informed that the phone came from Taiwan which means spare parts are not available in the UK. Very disappointed as the phone was almost £400 pounds. Review: My favorite phone ever. Great display, great look (not for everyone-- it's rugged-- but I love it personally), great speed (sure, it doesn't have the same benchmark scores as some of the newer phones today, but I have not experienced any difficulties and use it to play the newest games as well... You can look up reviews on YouTube, just about everyone will mention how there is no real-life difference in how this phone performs when stacked up against phones that are technically more powerful. Great camera. To be honest I don't use most of the functionality most of the time... but I have had instances where the Auto mode (which is great) isn't quite capturing the lighting or hue how I would like, and in these instances I switch over to Manual mode and am able to get the perfect shot. Moral of the story: Even if you are not a big photo enthusiast, which I am not either, and even if you don't see yourself using the Manual mode, it's still worth it to have this feature for those valuable occasions when you do need it. Also, the second screen is very useful to me. Seriously. At first, I struggled to use it, and I felt that I was just trying to use it because it was there and I felt I wasn't using the phone to its full potential if I wasn't using that second screen. But after about a month, I found the areas for which I really do like to use it, and it became very valuable. Personally, I would say the top features of the second screen that I use are: 1) Music player. I am always playing music from Google Music Player. When working out. When just sitting around at home. When writing this review. When using other apps, etc. It's really really nice to have to turn the main screen on just to change a song. Equally, when I am actually using the phone, i.e. using the browser or in WhatsApp or any other app, it's great to be able to switch songs but just giving one press to the mini-screen up top, without having to close any app I am using at that moment. 2) Most recently used apps. I'm not going to go into detail, but having your five most recent used apps displayed, in the order in which they were last used, becomes a super efficient way of going back and forth between apps (coping a link from an SMS message someone sent, one touch on mini screen to enter GMail where I was composing a message, pasting the link, then one touch on mini screen to go back to the SMS to confirm that I sent the link, then one touch to go into Chrome which I was just using before someone sent me a link, etc.). It's also valuable when, for example, looking up something on Chrome, then instantly switching back to whatever I was using. For example, I could go into Settings, realize I need to Google something, so one-touch to Chrome, then look up the needed info and then one touch back to the Settings, then one touch back to Chrome if needed... I even saw a technician at the AT&T store configuring a V10 in this way. 3) Favorite contacts. It's just awesome to one-touch to call favorite contacts. 4) Flashlight from off-screen. Well, this is probably more valuable to me than others, as I work in a developing country where the power goes out a lot, so it's awesome to be able to one-touch to the flashlight from when the main screen is off. The other functionalities of the second screen... like displaying favorite apps... I didn't find so useful. Displaying favorite apps seems like a practical idea, but in reality you will find that you very rarely use your favorite apps at the same time, and you will find yourself wanting to open an app that is not displayed as your favorite. For example, I might be in Chrome, and I realize I need to go back to my To-Do List app and write something else... except it's not a Favorite app for me, so either way I have to close Chrome and go into my To-Do List app. You will find that it just becomes more logical to display your most recent used apps up there (because essentially by definition those are the apps that you are using "in the moment", and thus the ones you are most likely to need right there and then). Of course, you can have the phone display both the Favorite apps and the Recent apps on the top mini screen... but then by default it will show your Favorite apps and you will always have to swipe to go see your Recent apps, and so I just found it made the most sense to display the Recent apps up there but not display any Favorite apps at all. But hey! That's why you have options. This phone let's you do what you want! Oh by the way, after having the phone for three months, I tried using it without the second screen (I turned it off), and really found myself missing it a lot. I kept wanting to use it, then realizing I can't because it's off. Which is testament to the fact that it's truly useful to me (okay, technically I have only established that I have made a habit out of using it, which doesn't necessarily mean it is useful, as we all have bad habits, but whatever, I think it's a great feature!).

So I upgraded to the V10 from the G4 because my G4 got stuck in a bootloop and LG wouldn't help me. And while that almost stopped me from buying from them again, I saw the V10 and couldn't help it. I like large smartphones, so I skipped out on the G5, and I was not disappointed. It is gorgeous to look at, from top to bottom. I have had it a few months now to make sure that it is all I expect it to be, and let me just say it totally is. Beautiful screen, good battery life (surprisingly good really), a very functional second screen, amazing camera system, and all the LG handset features I have grown to love. EDIT: I bought this phone in June of 2016, and it was going strong until it got stuck in a bootloop. This was me giving LG a second chance after the G4 got stuck in the bootloop and LG wouldn't help me as the bootloop wasn't under their warranty because they are cheap. So I thought "maybe they will have ironed this out by now." And lo and behold here I am, with another phone stuck in a bootloop. Never buying another LG phone again, I am sick of this happening.

I bought the phone in April. The features are great but the battery is very poor. After fully charged, the battery goes from 100% to 0% in straight 4 hours, even when Wi-Fi is not used. Needs some guidance on how do I get the new battery for this phone.

LG V10 H962. I've only had this phone for a week. Here are the pros and cons so far. Pro. 1. Replaceable battery. 2. Upgradeable storage. 3, Unlocked phone, dual sim slots. Con. 1. No LTE Service in the US. This phone does not support the necessary channels for LTE service in the US. Not with ATT, T-mobile, Sprint, Verizon or any other US carrier that I am aware of. It does support voice ,GSM and 3G data services with ATT. Overall, I wish I could get LTE connectivity with my phone but with my usage patterns I wouldn't benefit from the additional bandwidth anyway. For my use the flexibility of having an unlocked phone with upgradeable storage and replaceable battery far outweigh the lack of LTE service. I would purchase again.
