FB see themselves as a constantly changing/updating social multimedia, and they write their applications as such. In spite of recent trends in which they seem to want users to utilize video more, they still write their applications with specified logarithms and instructions to constantly scan and update the information that is being displayed, often, beyond the capabilities that cached allocations can allow in most devices. This affects both memory and battery performance in most mobile devices.

Yeah, me too...

Consistently choppy scrolling, often jumps all the way back to the top when trying to flick-scroll down the the bottom. I primarily use the Chrome browser.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] cyhamada:
Ditto. Same choppiness, under same circumstances. Just got mine yesterday and I thought I was going crazy. Any explanations?

Actually, had a thought. I'm using a CPU monitoring app and it seems that cores 5-8 aren't being used much. Maybe it's a chip issue? Or maybe something's wrong with the kernel? I'm mostly a dummy when it comes to this stuff so forgive my wild speculation.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] Ali Mirza:
Settings/Developer Options/tick on "Force GPU Rendering" should make the beast smoother faster. if root available try L Speed/Entropy/fstrim apps found on Play Store! If LG G6 gets Android 7.1.2 , the performance should improve smoother over Android 7.0 just like the LG V30 is incredibly smooth and fast due to SD 835. Android Oreo 8.0 should have faster boot times on powering up. LG flagships gets Oreo by the end of this year (November or December)

I am coming from a Pixel 1 which had an excellant camera and so far I have not been let down at all. I wanted the manual controls and was pissed when the Pixel wouldn't let me keep the shutter open for more than a second, the v30 allows up to 30 seconds!!!

Here are some pictures I took tonight while at kings island. All the pictures were MUCH darker than what they look like here:

https://photos.app.goo.gl/fAG370lZHqqc8VVA3

https://photos.app.goo.gl/fAG370lZHqqc8VVA3

Most of the pictures show both the normal and wide camera. The ones on the table outside were at 9pm EST. It was pretty much pitch black out. And that's only at 20 second shutter speed. The garage shot is in complete darkness. The shots of Kings Island were on Auto

[LG V30 Real Life Review] EVOme:
What do you mean 20sec shutter?
[LG V30 Real Life Review] budalica:
Pretty good 20 sec considering iso was at 800 but since aperture is 1.6 it's way to much light . I would lower iso to 50 and you could get away with even 10 sec exposure and cleaner photo . As for auto settings I only use it in broad day light . Once it gets dark you have to play with manual . It irritates me that people use auto mode at night and then complain how bad photos are . I don't care how much you paid for your camera ( Almost ) all cameras make bad decisions at night in auto mode .
[LG V30 Real Life Review] minnemike:
I assume a tripod is mandatory with those extended shutter speeds. DIdnt even know this could be done on a phone. Nice!
[LG V30 Real Life Review] Agent3:
I currently have the V20 and I am looking to upgrade to the V30, depending on how much the camera has improved. Manual mode which I love, is how I shoot all my shot. A tripod is required for even more than a second of shutter speeds. This was shot using the V20 with a stutter speed of 30 sec and a ND filter with a tripod.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] robamacaf:
Just took this low light photo at 1030 at night. You can easily see the Pleiades Cluster of stars right above the trees. 30 Second Shutter, 100 ISO (I believe, it might have been 50)

After doing some research I found out you can even see Andromeda Galaxy near the top center of the photo, it's the "blurry star"
[LG V30 Real Life Review] CHH2:
That's pretty.... stellar! I couldn't help it. But really, that's amazing for coming from a cellphone camera. I'll have to give it a try. I have a photo idea on tap that needed a night sky shot. I was going to do it with a larger camera but I will have to try it with the phone so that I can have an all in phone shot.

So far, I've been extremely impressed with the main camera in low light most of the time. Once in a while there's a little bobble here and there but overall, really good stuff. I was able to shoot with it in an area I normally test larger cameras. The wide angle is far better than that on the V20. I even shot one shot in the museum that I later used for a composite. The V20 was a pretty good photo tool but the V30 is looking to be much better! I've already got a handful of shots with it that I really like.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] robamacaf:
The way I achieved it was the way most people with DSLR takes night photos. I had it propped up (Don't ever hand hold star photos) and took 7 pictures. I then used the free windows program Sequator which stacks the photos and compares the differences between the photos to remove noise. It only takes about 20 seconds to do it. Then WALA. The final picture came out about 22 meg in size and looked amazing. I want to go out to a place with less light bleed from the environment to take some but it might be a while
[LG V30 Real Life Review] MikeyNick:
I might be able to test that tonight :) I'm heading into Joshua Tree to check out the meteor shower. I'll be doing most of my shooting on my DSLR but I'll grab a couple from the v30 as well. I don't have a cell phone tripod but I'll just lean it up against something.

I'll test both cameras. I'm expecting slightly better results from the wide angle than main camera just because the shorter focal length will allow for longer exposure without star trailing. but that f1.6 would let it some pretty decent light too. I'll try and update when I can with results, sometime this weekend!

Here's my V30 photos on Flickr so far:

https://flic.kr/s/aHsm4J9TWL

EXIF info is open for viewing for each shot. Anything shot in the museum or a performance setting is low light. (There is a "duplicate" which is a concept I was working on with one rough three minute job and the other a little more worked over.)
[LG V30 Real Life Review] serhiopinkoli:
can somebody do a camera comparison with note8 and google pixel 2 xl? I want to buy v30 but not sure if camera is good enough
[LG V30 Real Life Review] squo_85:
[MENTION=7789117]CHH2[/MENTION] thx [MENTION=8574348]serhiopinkoli[/MENTION] I'm also wondering **** one to those of those two. I heard that camera sensor is really little in v30 and pixel aren't big that could be complicated in LL conditions. Sometimes can get his shot, sometimes not - depend on scene and software correction, that's how I thing. It's more sure to get more with bidet pixels in sensor and better software, but less mpix rich is also not to good now I've got 19 mpix with pixel size as v30 has about 1,12 and in the dark outs terrible also because of poor software and dark camera glass f=2.0. But I like it with good light conditions . Shots has far more details than note 8. So this 16 mpix in v30 really make me confused, if note had some more mpix it wasn't even a question.

That's why I also wanted some real live pictures. It was the best to get comparison.

[LG V30 Real Life Review] CHH2:
I was really worried about the smaller sensor also. So I was able to reach out to a contact at T-Mobile to arrange a no restocking fee purchase so I could test it out and if I didn't like it, return it. I was really worried it would be worse than the V20. Well, I'm keeping it. It's better than the V20. I still get a weird photo once in a while but a very large majority of the time, I'm really surprised at how well the V30 does. You won't be doing action shots at night. That's just not the realm of cellphones, that's why there are still massive DSLRs. I still have quite a bit of testing to do. I still want to shot a low light portrait as I'm looking for a certain characteristic that I've had to give up on DSLRs for smaller sensors still have.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] n2bowling:
@ CHH2,

WOW! Those V30 shots you have on Flickr are great. That pretty much put me in the 'Should I get the V30 camp", LOL, it seems a lot of people dont realize that LG offers a boat-load of camera options to use. I have looking around and wondering what cell phone to get and I love how the LG 30 looks as I dont really care for the Sammy thinner style at all. SO after seeing a lot of pros and negs reviews about the V30 I'm sure glad I saw your V30 photos, plus you know how to set up a camera so that helps too.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] davebugyi:
Finally on Oreo on yesterday, and while the camera was already good for low light, the new Bright Mode does an excellent job (IMO) - for those who do not want to fiddle around with Manual mode. Pretty much surprised, that a smaller sensor (than the competition), can pull off good low light pictures.

[LG V30 Real Life Review] ChazzMatt:
Agreed. I pretty much keep it on auto, while being satisfied I can do "pro" pictures if I want.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] ayaskant12:
Manual mode can't emulate bright mode by whatever settings u apply!!

U can increase iso, decrese shutter speed or whatever but you can't emulate bright mode by those.

Bright mode is a software enhancement where 4 pixels are combined to get data called pixel binning. So effectively the resolution becomes 1/4 but brightness or light gathering info increases a lot
[LG V30 Real Life Review] zrzhu:
These pictures look good. where can I learn more how to use smart phone to take "pro" pictures?
[LG V30 Real Life Review] cornel.atomei:
First you need to learn the basics of exposure and the 3 elements that compose it: ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture. A very good website is

https://www.cambridgeincolour.com/

As for the V30, to better understand exposure, take a look at these 2 videos reviewing its camera, they are very in depth and comparing it to a pro Sony mirrorless camera.

[LG V30 Real Life Review] patstar5:
Dissapointed in the camera, my s7 edge took better photos in low light and for some reason the preview screen shows a lower quality image
[LG V30 Real Life Review] ChazzMatt:
You keep mentioning the quality of the "preview screen" in various posts. I really couldn't care less the quality of the "preview screen" image. :) That's not the picture itself. But to me the preview image on the phone display looks like the picture I'm about to take -- unless there's something I'm misunderstanding.

For low light, are you in Bright Mode or manual mode?
[LG V30 Real Life Review] ayaskant12:
Samsung camera increases brightness of LCD SCREEN to maximum.

If you want similar preview screen experience please increase the brightness of screen to Max before switching on the camera
[LG V30 Real Life Review] patstar5:

I tried using S7 at gigs (live music), and they are nowhere near my now V30. V30 can show facial expressions, while I can't make out facial expression using S7.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] CCJ22:
Are you in manual mode with the V30?
[LG V30 Real Life Review] ChickenA:
I tried, and manual mode are even better; but I hardly use manual mode, as artists tend to run around the stage, it is not possible to focus, so I use auto majority of the time, and still better than S7 on stock ROM.

For me, fast auto focus is the most important. Unless you have tripod trying to photo a mountain, manual model is impractical for day to day use, for me anyway.

See this photo I took, Chvrches in Sydney Australia, Hordern Pavilion 2018-7-22. The lights are shown from the rear not at her face, and yet you can still see her facial expression. There is no chance of taking this photo using a S7.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] trqster:
Nice photo! I've got an S7 Edge too and most of the time I prefer my V30's photos in low light due to more correct exposure . But it's even better if you use Google Pixels camera - then it blows an iPhone X (for example) out of the water in low.light.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] lokesh.acm:
Dude! Just got a v30. I'm getting a dark circle when I shoot in manual and my shutter is 30.. iso at 50.. tried 100.. . See my attached pictures.

When I take auto mode pictures.. I get full screen pictures. If I keep 1 second exposure I get proper full screen pictures. But once the shutter speed is increased, I get that dark circle. See attachment. My Mi5 gets a proper full screen pic at 100 iso and 32s shutter speed. Let me what your thoughts are on this topic.

I'm still within my replacement period so I seek your advice :)

hello,

Here are my views after using the V30+'s camera for 3 days.

Low Light: Use Manual Mode FFS. Pictures come out way better in manual mode in low light.(I am a noob in using the manual mode and the pictures cane out great once I got a hang of it)

Wide angle camera: Used it way more than expected and the shots are EPIC!!

Primary camera: Used it when trying to get the subject as the main focus while taking shots.

Attaching a low light shot and few wide angle shots.

These are not touched yet and all are in JPEG format.

[LG V30 Real Life Review] The Last Oracle:
The Video Quality needs an improvement. Most likely some firmware issues that could be addressed by LG. Dynamic Range is low in video, and the stabilisation is disappointing. Maybe they could engage the Electronic Image Stabilisation (EIS), or improve the Optical Image stabilisation (OIS) response time and overall smoothness.
[LG V30 Real Life Review] RojasTKD:
Seeing as there are only pre-production unites with non-final software available, I would think it's a little premature to comment on any aspect of the phone including video quality.

[LG V30 Real Life Review] Billy Madison:
Manual mode in V20 let you choose as high as 64Mbit bitrate, kut not auto mode though.

What I'd like to know is if there's 3rd party app in PlayMarket that's capable to store UHD 4K video directly in H.265 HEVC format?

SD Spectre is definitely capable of H265 compressing AFAIK

^That article isn't exactly true. While if you are just digging around in the menus looking for frame rates, all you will see is that the fastest listed is 720@120fps. But if you use the actual mode option listed as Slo-mo then you get 240fps. They were lazy and didn't do their research.

And I should note that those videos were made in a bar where they keep the volume at a level that trips the Receiver As Mic. That doesn't come on until 120 decibels. The RAM was tripped right from the start.

i have serious problems with in-video audio quality, especially in the manual mode, with hi-fi setting. on softer sounds it has a weird "compression artifact" like stuttering, although its lossless audio.

this is the mode that sohuld be ok for semi-professional videos according to the ads and phone blogger, but its absolutely not!

so a kinda mediocre video quality that promises great audio to make up for it, but it doesnt deliver.
