[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] porscheoscar:
I use this phone for work and play. I have to run a proprietary app 24/7 for work so this is literally multitasking all day long. I use 40GBs of LTE data per month. I have a FiiO E18 amp and various high end headphones. INSANE SOUND QUALITY. I take lots of pictures for things I sell mostly watches and high end bicycle gear so needless to say the picture quality has to be on point. I do not own a real camera because the manual controls are AWESOME. This phone and the V10 before it has forced me to learn how to take real pictures. It's a make you smarter phone and not a keep you dumber phone.

I have 256 Samsung micro SD card which is the best thing ever.. I have 40GBs of video on the card right now mostly downloads from my YouTube Red subscription..best $10 per month ever spent.

I use the second screen all day long to switch to the next track on Amazon MP3 and Play Music without disturbing the main screen.

The phone is by far the fastest charging phone I ever had with my 3.0 car charger, 3.0 charging station and 3.0 Anker PowerCore+ bank. I'm literally never low on power ever. I swap between 4 batteries so I'm not using the same battery two days in a row, which maximizes SOT. The 30 second reboot of switching batteries keeps the phone zippy like the Pixel. I could tell no huge difference when I used the Pixel phone at the Verizon store and my V20 so I don't understand all the hype. I also changed the animation scale under dev options to 0.5 so it's quicker on that part and generally speaking I experience zero lag. I'm using Apex Launcher and am not rooted.

So yeah this is easily the best phone I have ever owned. I've used all the phones from Palm, to Blackberry to IPhone the to Motorola to Samsung to Nexus. This is the best of all, and this is the best Android version. I use every single V20 feature that makes this phone unique. None of it is a gimmick except that it doesn't explode on planes and I don't have to pay $800 for only 32gb...or $1k for the high capacity I have now. It's pretty obvious that LG has become the no features spared brand. Which is what power users demand.

The Note 4 was the last great power user phone Samsung made. But fixed batteries are here to stay for Samsung. The ability to go to 0 to 100% in 30 seconds with a 3200 mAh battery can not be matched. Wireless charging is slow, increases heat which both degrade the battery. No thanks.

And after leaving Samsung Amoled I see how much exaggeration I was getting used to. The V20 gives you LCD realism with QHD two things Apple and Samsung can't deliver. The Pixel XL has Amoled but without SD card or removable battery it just can't keep up with power user demands.

That's funny because I haven't rooted since the RAZR Maxx six years ago. I have had zero lag with or crashes with my Nexus, Samsung and LG devices. My belief is that these lag issues are a result of poorly designed apps. Since 5.0 Android has been every bit as good and now with 7.0 better than my iOS devices.
