The performance of the LG G5 is super slick. The Snapdragon 820 processor and 4GB of RAM shine – making everything from emails to gaming quick and easy, I'm also a fan of the QHD display, which at 5.3 inches is excellent for a Netflix binge or a gaming se
My main sticking point with the LG G5 is its battery life. Having used the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, the G5 just can't compete and that's a real shame, It all too often found itself running low as I left work, and dying completely shortly after getting home
The LG G5 is a bit of a funny one. It's giving us a glimpse of the future thanks to the modular setup, but its true potential is currently unrealized, and things could stay that way for a while as we wait for exciting, new modules to appear.Where does tha...

Modular Aspect Feels A Little Beta At Present, Switching Modules Is Clunky
The moment I saw the LG G5 at MWC 2016 I knew it was something special. And not just because of its modular aspect, although that was certainly an eye-catching feature. No, for the most part I like what LG stands for, what it's all about — pushing the bou...
The battery isn't removable and it no longer supports Friends (oh no). In every other respect the LG G6 is a big and bold upgrade over the LG G5, and we'd say it's by far the better phone. However, we'll know more when we've had it into our Test Centre fo...
