  • 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

  • Aggressive fan profile
  • Lacks a semi-passive mode
  • Rather low PF readings (with 230V i
  • The modular slot is a complete dud

  • Abstract:  LG전자에서 세계최초로 모듈타입 스마트폰 G5를 선보이며 프렌즈라는 독특한 디바이스 몇 종류를 선 보였습니다. 바로 프렌즈들이죠. 지금까지 없던 모듈 타입 스마트폰 G5와 함께 사용할 때 가치가 올라가는 프렌즈들 캠플러스 뱅앤올룹슨 패키지 VR360, 360캠 롤링봇등이 있습니다. 앞으로 더 많은 친구들을 영입할거라 예상이 되고 G5 만큼이나 그 친구들도 화제가 되고 있습니다.마침 이번에 LG 프렌즈 컨퍼런스에 참여하며 몇 종류를 체험해 보고 다른...

  • 마시멜로에 들어오며 한층 정돈된 인터페이스. 음악 재생 기능이 뛰어나다. 스냅드래곤은 더 이상 화룡이 아니다.
  • 후면 광각 카메라 화소수가 떨어진다. 64GB 모델도 있었더라면 좋았을 것. 유심 트레이를 튼튼한 재질로 썼다면 어땠을까
  • 더 이상의 실패는 없다. 새로운 아이디어를 가득 담은 회심의 마스터피스...

  • Abstract:  갤럭시 S7에 비해 어두운 LG의 올웨이즈온 화면 <이미지 : Matt Straus> 결론은 삼성의 올웨이즈온 기능이 훨씬 밝고 넥서스 6P같은 순수 마시멜로우 스마트폰에 내장된 앰비언트 디스플레이(Ambent Display) 기능이 훨씬 더 상세한 알림 정보를 보여준다. 다행히도 LG는 최종 판매 버전에서 이 문제를 해결할 것이다. 아니면 올웨이즈온 디스플레이의 밝기 설정 기능 추가도 좋을 것이다. LG는 평균적인 스마트폰 사용자에게 그런 권한을 줘도...

  • Abstract:  아이티투데이 백연식 기자] 오는 31일 국내 출시 예정인 LG의 전략 스마트폰 G5는 스마트폰 하단에서 모듈을 분리해 다른 모듈과 바꿔 사용할 수 있는 점이 가장 큰 특징이다.또한 360도 카메라와 VR기기 등 다양한 액세서리군인 ‘프렌즈'과 연결해 기존의 스마트폰 기능과 다른 다양한 경험을 느낄 수 있다. 17일 열렸던 G5 개발자 회의에 참석해 G5와 G5의 추가 모듈인 캠플러스와 하이파이플러스를 직접 사용해 봤다.G5는 두 개의 추가 모듈을 가지...

  • Abstract:  스페인에서 직접 만져본 LG G5 체험 후기. 스마트폰 시장에 산뜻한 바람을 일으킨 LG G5많이 늦었네요. 글이... MWC2016 참관을 위해 스페인까지 가서 직접 LG G5를 만져본 후기를 뒤늦게나마 올려볼까 합니다. 사담입니다만 MWC2016의 주인공은 개인적으로 느끼기에 단연코 LG G5였습니다.중국산 제품들의 대거 출품과 VR 관련 플랫폼 등을 제외하면 그닥 볼거리가 없었던 이번 MWC2016에서 LG 부스가 그나마 많은 재미를 안겨주었습니다...

  • Abstract:  LG G5 특징 및 마케팅 # 착탈 가능한 모듈형 배터리 LG는 자사 플래그쉽 스마트폰인 G5를 통해 새로운 시도를 했습니다. 바로 모듈형 배터리인데요 기존 착탈식 배터리를 생각하면 뒷면을 열고 배터리를 교체하는 방식이지만 G5는 하단을 분리하여 배터리를 삽입하는 구조입니다. 일체형의 견고한 마감과 배터리 교환의 효율성을 원하는 사람들에게 모두 만족을 주겠다는 생각과 함께 다양한 모듈 악세서리를 함께 출시하면서 나름대로의 사용성도 넓혔습니다...
