[LG G5 Real Life Review] bkdg100:
i am very happy with the camera , the speed is a little slower than some, ( on first shot ) but when a moment is taken to frame shot and improve lighting or adjust iso in manual settings , the camera takes excellent pics . i use both wide angle sensor and regular , and cant say ive owned a better phone camera . I have installed Google Camera HDR+ (V4.0) ported for lg g6 , ripped from pixel , it offers some inhanced HDR , but is slower and images a little undersized , when compared to oem app . But the hdr really adds flair to the dogs hair . Native Video is very good as well . 4k fiiles are huge . Using Google Camera HDR+ (V4.0) the camera will only do 1080p but that video is nice as well. Having used this phone for almost a year i can say its nearly my fav. very few limitations really botehr me. Only my friends S8 compares in quality video and stills , but i paid 120 , he paid 600+ , so my phone is much better .... i cannot see myself settling for a phone in the future that has anything but the best or near best camera . I also own a sony A6000 for family photo and holidays , but having this phone in my pocket has really saved the day . ok enough rambling

Hi, I just upgraded from a G4, fab camera. I don't find the G5 to be quite as good, or should I say I just have some issues with it that might be solvable. I usually take landscape photo's when out and about and I find in bright light there seems to be an orange push to white sunlight. Also in dark settings I find a lot of glare, beams of light coming from street lights for example. Often is can be cause by an dirty lens but I find even when I clean it thoroughly I still get this effect to some extent. Anyone experiencing the same issues?

I just recently switched from Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge to an LG G5 because I broke it and the only phone I could afford and found a really great deal, LG G5 already Unlocked barely with a SUPCASE and screen protector which was a great deal for 190$.

The cameras is as good and maybe even a bit better because of the wide screen angle dual camera.

But damn the LG cameras software sucks and pretty much all other apps and other cameras you can download on it sucks...

I miss the Samsung default camera app...

The best apps are the to take photos is the Candy Camera app and a mod or port of the google camera... but still doesn't pleasant to use as Samsung cameras app.

Candy Camera : For filter and photo editor (It's the best)

Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the LG G5 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[LG G5 Real Life Review] brancangekibe:
Videos are a bit...meh. The lack of 60 fps and "manual video" in general is, frankly, sad. The turnaround was using v10's camera app ported to the G4 (but works on G5) : 60 fps FullHd (but no OIS and no wide lens atm)
[LG G5 Real Life Review] jdougs:
I recorded some waterfalls and other natural objects and I was very much impressed with it. It is the best video I have seen recorded on a cell phone. The live action of my boys baseball games is equally impressive. Maybe my eyes aren't that sensitive.

You can do manual video using the V10 apk camera app for non rooted :)
[LG G5 Real Life Review] Hreidmar:
The photos this beast takes are superb but videos are kinda "meh" but I think it's because of that "steady" feature as it kinda "warps" the video so just OIS is better if you have steady hands. Also thank god for V10 Camera Apk for 1080p 60 FPS video recording...60 fps is sooo beautiful!

Would've been 5 stars if the front camera wasn't prone to suddenly getting really grainy, really dark, or really bright. Will update if the 10d update fixed that.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] micaimaldita:
hello im new here. i dont know if you guys notice front selfie camera. at night while taking pictures, the camera lags, making picture quality blurry. i also notice if i smile while snapping the pic, in the outcome pic, im already not smiling and my eyes half closed, its funny. weird. heres another one. you save the pictures on SD card, there would be no lag/delay in camera , while if you change setting and change to storage to device, then take 2-3 pics then delete those pics, you will see a black screen for like 3 seconds before returning to the camera screen itself. please anybody...if theres anyone working for LG here, please fix. i have done the hard reset as the agent told me. but to no avail. i think this one needs another update , i love this phone but it needs camera bug updates because it gets so annoying already. given that the lg g5 has the 8mp front camera, this is weird.

i have the verizon one.

Can't say the front facing camera is very good. Better than alot of other phones but its grainy smooth and loses so much detail.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] dewri21:
Front camera on my G5 sucks totally. The highlights always get a pink tint and the camera doesn't feel like something that should be present in a flagship device. I have the OnePlus 3 too, which performs much better than my G5. Even the rear camera isn't as good as it should've been. I use the Indian variant H860 with the lastest software available for it ~ V10m

you can set it so it will open the camera while being in deep sleep by just pressing volume down twice.

even further you can set it so it takes a photo right away when doing this.

this takes less than 3 seconds
[LG G5 Real Life Review] fillobotto:
With the above mentioned trick (double press volume down with screen is off) it take about 2.5 seconds (intended the range between button press and photo being taken)

Great Charging

This is the first phone I have had that would actually increase the charge significantly while navigating using google maps in the daylight. And it increases pretty fast.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] hugehead83:
My Anker QuickCharge 3.0 charger got my G5 from 0 to 100% in ~75 minutes while on. The same charger port got my spare battery in the cradle fro 0 to 100% in ~3 hours (it only pulled 5V).

After lunch today, I plugged it into a USB 3.0 port on my Lenovo T430, and it got from 60 to 100% in under 30 minutes while pulling over 1.2 amps (way above spec).

I'm happily impressed!
[LG G5 Real Life Review] jamiee6610:
Could be better? Not close to the G4
[LG G5 Real Life Review] stuart0001:
That's simply not possible unless you are using a non QC 3.0 charger or bad lead.

This thread is about charging speed, not battery life.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] BR7fan:
I'm loving the charging speed. It's like night and day compared to the M9 I used to own.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] Dano79:
Doesn't seem much faster than speed charge 2.0 at all to me
[LG G5 Real Life Review] SystemErrorOne:
Remember the G4 had a bigger battery so its only obvious the G4 last longer. But luckily we can buy multiple extra batteries :good:
[LG G5 Real Life Review] panamaniac:
As has been discussed elsewhere, QC 3.0 doesn't boost speed much if at all over 2.0. Instead it provides a continuous range of charging voltages (or amps? or whatever) so that it can charge at just the right rate. This should heat the battery less and (in theory, no idea how true/noticeable this will be after a year of use) wear down the battery less because of it.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] stuart0001:
Screen off = no difference in speed

Try with screen on then 3.0 is 2-3x as fast as 2.0

This has made a massive difference in the car when my screen stays on.

3.0 charges at a solid 1A with screen on as oppose to 2.0 that only musters 0.3-0.6A depending on phone temperature. ?
[LG G5 Real Life Review] GottZ:
just throwing this in.

acording to Benson Leung LG G5 is not usb type c compliant when it comes to charging.

has anyone here tried charging the G5 using a true usb type c fast charger? i wonder what the outcome might be.

i'll be sad if i have to buy separate chargers just for this phone. (in case i get any true usb type c devices in future i mean)

http://www.xda-developers.com/be-wa...uick-charge-is-not-usb-type-c-spec-compliant/
[LG G5 Real Life Review] stuart0001:
Charged fine with my 6P charger. About 2A so not full whack, but no issues.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] GottZ:
are you using a cable that contains a 56K resistor?
[LG G5 Real Life Review] stuart0001:
No idea. It's the 1 that came with the 6P so I would expect so.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] RojasTKD:
Qualcomm's Quick Charge goes outside the USB-C spec in order to be able to charge compatible Quick Charge devices faster (higher voltages when possible).

Dose this meet the USB-C spec, no... Would I be concerned about it, Not if I'm using a reputable QC charger and USB-C cable.

Happy fast charging....
[LG G5 Real Life Review] waylo:
I'll be commenting on these cables and QC3.0 charging on my battery charging thread once I have more data. I have 2 QC3.0 USB wall chargers that I'm collecting data on now. These both have USB-A ports, so they need cable adapters.

But yes, early SPOILER [MENTION=1225923]GottZ[/MENTION]: The USB-C compliant cables (USB-A to USB-C) with the resistor limit the benefit of QC3 over QC2. But [MENTION=3471230]stuart0001[/MENTION] does have a point with charging with the screen on.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] stuart0001:
I look forward to your findings.

After further experimentation, QC 2.0 will hit 1A with screen on when below 32deg. So I've found when screen on:

QC 2.0

<32 = 1A

32-35 = 0.6A

35-42 = 0.3A

>42 =? (I haven't tested yet)

QC 3.0 maintains 1A, certainly upto 42. Again, I've not tested higher than that.

This is all with the cable that came with the phone.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] GottZ:
when talking about QC 2/3 you should also mention volt or just combine volts and amps to watts

just talking about amps is like saying A: has 2 inches Ampere and B: has 3 inches Ampere
[LG G5 Real Life Review] stuart0001:
In theory yes. But ultimately, your real world charge speed will be reflected by the amperage reported on the phone, which is where my stats come from.

For the record, QC 3 has been 6-6.5 V & QC 2.0 9V (measured with a USB meter)

Edit: Having a think I'm still confused. I'm using 3C toolbox to report mA but as you say it's only part of the equation. However, in relative terms when looking to compare charging speeds, it does seem a reasonable way to report & does tally with %/hr rates. In other words, if it's reporting half mA it's also % increasing half the speed.

So what would knowing voltage help in terms of knowing your charge speed. The 3C reporting seems sufficient for that alone I think.

Maybe for this exercise it'll be better to report %/hr, which is probably where the 3C stats come from anyway.

Ultimately, QC 3.0 is quicker charging at higher temps, even when screen off I'm finding too. Below 32deg, they are the same rate.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] ToeJullar:
Type C can not be beat. This thing charges insanely fast. I can charge it for 30 minutes and leave for class knowing it will last me until I get back home. Plus with the spare battery you can literally abuse and power use to your hearts content

[LG G5 Real Life Review] Skipjacks:
On the H830 (US T Mobile version) the fast charging works just fine on Android 7.

But that is a different version than you have.
[LG G5 Real Life Review] cheeze.keyk:
Using QC 3.0 charger, it's one of the fast charging phone I've had. :)
[LG G5 Real Life Review] waylo:
I've had some odd experiences with the H830, and there are some other folks posting the same experiences on the initial 20A autoprime thread.

When Nougat first came out, some folks lost QC when they upgraded and posted their problems with it. Not sure if it was permanent or if they ever found out what the underlying reason was. Not sure if they ever got it back, but maybe I should ask.

My G5 T-Mobile initial lease was coming due, so I bought a lightly used 'new' H830 which was already on 20K. QC did NOT work on this and I could not figure out why. I tried multiple Nougat revisions, both .zips and KDZ, and couldn't get it to work. Finally, I reverted it back to 10J, and QC worked again.

Then, before returning my old G5, which was on 10J, I upgraded it to 20A. QC worked fine on it!

So, not sure if there is some hardware issue with *some* G5s, or there is some odd software glitch that prevents some G5s from QCing. The simple fix going back to 10J would indicate a software issue, but again, I could not get the 'new' G5 to QC on Nougat using multiple versions.
