LG has done a great job with this phone. It has a large 5.7 inch display with vibrant colors and clarity. It has a snapdragon 821 processor so it is fast and can handle many applications without lag. It also is great for gaming if your in to that. I would give it a 5 star rating if it was not for the average battery life. If you stream a lot of videos, be prepared to charge the phone in the middle of the day. A solution to that is the LG G6 has fast charging so you can top up in about 30 minutes...just have a car charger. The dual 13 mega pixel camera is TOP NOTCH and has different modes that you can use to enhance your point and shoot experience. The front facing wide angle 5mp lenses does the job well and can satisfy selfie addicts out there. The build of the phone is phenomenal. When you're holding it to your ear it feels well-built and sturdy. The front has grill like glass three and the back has gorilla glass five so it gives you peace of mind that for the most part your phone is protected in case you drop it. The phone also a certified water and dust resistant which is an added benefit for you. The fingerprint sensor which also ask as the power on off button is very responsive and placed strategically well in the back below the dual camera. The phone cosmetically is beautiful. So if you want a flagship phone that also gives you the best value for your money, I encourage you to get the LG G6.

---- Pros ----
- As of this writing, LG is offering a 2 year warranty if you register within 90 days of purchase
- Dust immune and highly water resistant (IP68 rating)
- 1440p high resolution screen
- Its great looking IPS display won't suffer from the aging issues of OLED displays (such as the Pixel, OnePlus, Galaxy, and probably the new iPhone 8). These issues are: permanent dimming (due to even screen wear), color shift (due to blue pixels deteriorating faster than red and green), and burn in (due to uneven screen wear).
- dual rear camera (regular with OIS & wide angle)
- small bezels, so the phone is small for its screen size
- no curved glass on the screen, so tempered glass screen protectors fit it nicely without large gaps or the fragility of rounded glass screen protectors
- micro sd card slot
- mostly a stock Android experience
- wireless charging (regular speed, not fast)
---- Cons ----
- no bootloader unlock as of 2017.08.25
- no root as of 2017.08.25
- mono bottom firing speaker sounds poor (at least the volume is decent though)
- the camera sensors use small 1.12 micron pixels which can result in noise in low light shots (for comparison the Pixel uses 1.55 micron pixels which are 38% bigger)
- carrier and LG bloatware can't easily be uninstalled
- wide angle lens does not have OIS
- only 32gb of internal storage (the sd card slot is a saving grace)
- still running Android 7.0.0 as of 2017.08.25 (Android 7.1.2 and 8.0.0 are out)
- LG has a history of ending OS updates in 2 years or less (fingers crossed for Android O soon, and that it will get Android P before updates are halted)
- some of the changes LG made to Android are arbitrary and undesirable (although its closer to stock than many competitors)
---- Other ----
It has a wide angle lens (better for capturing scenes) in favor of a telephoto lens (better for high quality, accurate, flattering portraits and optical zoom).
The power button is integrated into the rear fingerprint sensor. If the phone is lying on a table, the power button can't be pressed without picking the phone up. However, the phone supports screen tap to wake, and double pressing the volume buttons will also turn on the screen.
The screen ratio is 18:9, which is extra tall. This has several points of impact:
- The 5.7 inch screen is the same width as a 5.2 inch 16:9 "normal" aspect ratio screen, only taller.
- Although this screen format is gaining popularity (Galaxy S8 uses it too), it is still very new, so many apps do not utilize the extra space well or at all. LG has an option to force apps to run in more common aspect ratios, and to zoom into apps to utilize the extra space. But this solution doesn't always work perfectly. It can cause cropping that sometimes interferes with the normal operation of a program. Most video is 16:9, so you'll have black bars (effectively making the screen 5.2 inches), or you can zoom in and crop.
---- Conclusion ----
Right now this phone can be found at discounts that make it the best phone for the price by a wide margin. And the 2 year warranty is fantastic.
But if price doesn't matter, I'd be inclined to consider the Pixel for reliable software updates, root, stock android without bloat, and massive camera sensor pixels for low light photography.

The g6 has the best camera for the price out of the other higher flagship phones. People tend to buy iPhones because it is marketed as the best, however lg phones are pretty competitive. The battery life is ok for my needs and the build is amazing. The screen is not as good as the note 8 or a lg OLED tv, but you have less chances of the burn in affect from some OLED screens. Personally, I would get the V30 plus, but best buy rarely has a good deal on it. The value of this phone is great if price is a factor. If you love Samsung, the note is slightly bigger but costs a lot more. I hope lg steps up with a phone that is like the note.

I primarily use Android devices, from Samsung or LG. This is the best phone I've owned in the last decade or so. Performance beats or matches other flagship phones and the design is top of the line. I'm also a photographer..this is the 1st device that really gave me pause to bring a stand-alone camera in social situations. It it VERY good in manual mode! Best price anywhere was BestBuy!

I have had the LG G4 and G5 and was never disappointed so the G6 was the next logical choice. I haven't found one fault with this phone yet (I've had it about a month so far). Excellent battery life, which almost makes up for the loss of a removable battery, huge screen, and the fingerprint unlock works effortlessly. This phone has kept all the good features of the G5 and improved on them. The price ($480 currently) is also fantastic. If you are looking for an Android alternative to a Galaxy this is it.

I love this phone. I'm a big guy and testing the s8 I always accidentally got the screen. Not an issue on this phone.
Pros:
2:1 screen is great for scrolling apps like Facebook and Gmail, as well as 21:9 movies.
Great build quality.
Nice cameras.
Fast software. A Samsung will not stay fast and stable as long as this phone.
Cons:
The tall screen doesn't work great for some apps.
Need big hands to use device imo
No notification light on front (has always on display instead)

If you're not someone that NEEDS the latest and greatest, but still want a high end phone, this is it. It's fast, the battery lasts a long time, takes great pictures, and I like the ergonomics of the phone. The back side home button might be a turn off for some, but I love it. The ONLY complaint I have is that there is no indicator light. Nothing lit to tell you it's charging, or no blinks to notify of an alert/message. These go on sale often, and you just can't go wrong.
A:This LG G6 is a new phone. I'm not sure of the full, upfront price. In my plan, I pay per month and at the end of the 24 months the phone is mine-not leased. There is no pre-pay penalty, but I'm under contract with Sprint for 24 months of payments.
A:no it's not unlocked. you'd have to buy an unlocked version specifically in order to move carriers, but an unlocked phone would only work on att or tmobile.
A:It is on Sprint. Boost is a Sprint prepaid carrier, and it should work there, but you will hazbe to pay full price - and not the $120. However if you buy it pn a Sprint line, pay it off, then you can move it to Boost
