Drab UX 5.0 skin
Gimmicky LG Friends modules
No water-resistance
Modular design is loose
Only one module available in the U.S
Very rough and unfinished design
Feels rushed
Average battery life (smaller 2
800 mAh battery)
Dim display with unnatural colors and whites
Inconsistent daylight visibility
LG still lags behind on software design
Whatever LG wants to call this finish
It still feels like plastic
Fit and finish isn't up to similarly priced phones
Not water resistant
Screen technology not as good as others in its class
Battery life Mediocre at best. I get maybe a bit over 4 hours screen on with most of my time sitting at home on WiFi only. Around or under three hours
Definitely
If I'm out and about on mobile data. So
A lot like a typical phone from 2015 running Marsh
LG's UX 5.0 is as convoluted as ever
Carrier-exclusive band support rather than an International phone
Camera software is confusing
Photo quality is mediocre at best most of the time
Hi-Fi DAC from the V10 was obviously removed to sell the new Hi-Fi m
The bottom release mechanism just isn't good enough. It holds the bottom part on unevenly
And on one side is so loose you can see through it
LG carved an awful groove around the back of the phone
And the edges are pretty sharp
A microSD card
Great
Style doesn't screen flagship device
Battery life and performance slightly lag behind other phones at this price range
Durability concerns about the plastic bottom of the battery module
Having the fingerprint scanner on the back can be inconvenient

Blah design
Bottom firing speaker is easily blocked by hand

Janky dual-camera system
Clumsy process to swap modules
Inaccurate fingerprint sensor
Mediocre battery life
Subpar fit and finish
Flawed industrial design
Extremely dim always-on display
Wide-angle camera is more gimmicky than useful
Modular "Friends" accessories aren't very good
Dated look
Poor display brightness
Large display rim
Iderable carrier bloatware
Look could be better
Fit and finish uneven. LG UI does away with app drawer. Friends are interesting but lacking
Flimsy build
Modular accessories are pricey
Metal body doesn't feel premium
Battery life is average
Price
Speaker quality isn't the best
Display was a hit and miss some days
Bland look
Below-average battery life
Heavy-handed software interface
Plagued by lack of refinement
Saddled with carrier bloatware
Overshadowed by better smartphone alternatives
Extra modules don't add enough value yet
Needs more polish in manufacturing the bottom slot
Why are the chamfers so sharp?
Microdized treatment feels like plastic
Aging concerns over paint finish
The display is dimmer than average
Inconsistent battery life
Rather uncomfortable to hold due to the slippery matte back
The placement of the fingerprint scanner is not optimal
The display is overly cold and off target in color reproduction
Indoor photos are soft and occasionally with white balance issues
Alway
Although you can swap out some parts
There aren't enough to make this feature compelling. You can only access the phone's app drawer in a specialized theme
Lackluster lowlight performance
Dual window removed from software
Uninspiring design
Cannot deliver full load at over 46°C ambient (OTP kicks in)
Very low hold-up time (combined with a long power-good signal)
High inrush-current
Single EPS connector
Aggressive fan profile
Lacks a semi-passive mode
Rather low PF readings (with 230V i
The modular slot is a complete dud
Providing no compelling additional features. LG's ‘metal' body is underwhelming. Software lacks the polish a highend phone deserves. Disappointing battery life.
The first add-on accessories aren't great
Fit and finish doesn't impress
Middling battery life
Slightly processed look at pixel level
With smeared fine detail and strong sharpening
Very noticeable luminance noise in areas of plain color in bright light
Some white balance inconsistencies in mixed light situations
Occasional soft spots in images
Slight color shading visible in lowlight conditions
An occasional blue cast in outdoor pictures
Chromatic noise visible in bright light HDR exposures

Abstract: 안녕하세요 엔돌슨입니다. G5 고속충전을 하면 정말 10분 충전하고 4시간 사용이 가능할까? 광고에서 보면 G5의 배터리가 많이 닿았을 때 퀵차지를 이용하여 10분 충전하고 4시간을 사용할 수 있다고 하는 데요. 실제 G5 고속충전을 하면 얼마나 빨리 충전을 될까요?직접 타이머를 10분 동작시켜 10분 사용하고 10분 충전하는 작업을 반복하여 보았습니다. 평소 G5의 퀵차지를 많이 쓰긴 하지만 직접 %를 체크 해보긴 처음입니다.LG G5는 퀄컴의 최...
Abstract: 안녕하세요 엔돌슨 입니다. 요즘 핫하다는 갤럭시노트7 리뷰를 준비했습니다. 정말 아이러니한 걸 먼저 알려 드리면 갤럭시노트7 카메라의 화소가 이전 노트5 보다 오히려 낮아 졌다는 것입니다. 이건 갤럭시노트7 단점이 될 수 있을 듯한데요. 아무도 카메라에 대한 아쉬운 점을 토로 하지 않더군요. 또 하나 갤럭시노트7 카메라는 듀얼렌즈가 아닙니다.엘지 G5 사용자 입장에서 봤을 때 갤럭시노트7의 카메라가 왜 듀얼렌즈로 출시되지 않았는지 궁금하더군요. 그래서...
Abstract: 안녕하세요 엔돌슨입니다. LG G5 개봉기를 전해드리려고 합니다. 이전에 G5 런칭행사 때쯤 좋은 소식을 전해드렸던 것 같은데요. 최근에 보니 LG의 G5 부진에 대해서 좋지 않은 평가를 하더라고요. 저 역시 G4에 이어서 G5를 쓰는 입장에서 달라진 혁신적인 모듈러 폰과 G5의 편리한 지문인식을 비롯하여 프리미엄적인 UX기능을 보며 평가에 많이 아쉬웠습니다.실제로 보면 G5 골드 제품이 너무 이쁘며 이전 G4에서 한차원 달라진 기능과 외형은 좋다는...
Abstract: 스마트폰의 카메라 화질이 점점 올라가고 있습니다. 주간은 물론 야간사진도 꽤 그럴듯하게 찍을 수 있죠. LG G5 카메라 전문가모드를 이용하면 RAW DNG포멧으로 야간 사진을 찍을 수 있는데요. 보통 야간 사진을 찍을 때에는 ISO 감도를 높이거나 또는 셔터스피드를 길게 해서 촬영을 합니다. 물론 삼각대는 필요할 듯 하네요. LG G5 카메라는 듀얼카메라로 135도의 넓은 화각의 사진 또는 일반 화각의 사진을 담을 수 있습니다. 물론 야간 사진 촬영에...
Abstract: LG전자에서 올해 처음 선보인 모듈타입 플래그쉽 단말기 G5 분해도를 공개 했습니다.G5를 완전히 분해 했는데 모듈타입의 외형적 특징이 분해도에 보면 내부도 그대로 적용 되었음을 알 수 있습니다. G5의 경우 부품별로 쉽게 분리가 되며 구글의 아라 프로젝트로 만들어지는 아라폰 역시 모듈 타입으로 부품을 하나씩 조립할 수 있는데 그것과 꽤 비슷함을 느낄 수 있습니다.모듈 타입의 조립식 스마트폰이 앞으로 어떻게 발전이 될지 살짝 엿볼수 있는 부분이기도 합니...
Abstract: 스마트폰에서 가장 중요한 요소 중 하나는 카메라 입니다. 그런 이유로 신제품이 나올 때마다 카메라는 혁신이 있었죠. LG G5 카메라도 혁신 적입니다. 야외 사진을 찍어봤는데요. 광각 일반 화각의 편리함은 무척 인상적이었습니다. 광각으로 사진을 찍으면 무척 넓게 사진이 찍힙니다. 근데 문제는 스마트폰 카메라는 줌렌즈는 아니여서 화질이 떨어지는 문제가 있죠. LG G5 카메라는 서로 다른 화각의 2개의 카메라를 넣어버려서 이런 문제를 없애버렸습니다.Cam...
Abstract: 듀얼카메라를 장착한 G5 하나의 카메라는 70도의 화각을 가지고 있으며 다른 하나는 135도라는 광각 렌즈를 가지고 있습니다. 이번에 G5가 가진 장점중 가장 크게 느껴지는 부분도 이 광각 카메라 입니다.G5의 광각카메라는 화각 135도 일반 카메라 렌즈와 비교하면 17-19mm정도의 화각과 비슷합니다. 조리개값은 F2.4로 일반 카메라의 조리개보다 좀 어두우며 화소는 800만 화소 입니다. G5 광각 카메라는 동영상 촬영시에도 사용 할 수 있으며 전문...
