LG G5 H850
LG G5 is built around a modular concept. There are currently two modules available that extend the functionality of the phone. The camera module slides onto the phone and transforms the phone into a camera including buttons and a camera grip. The audio module has been developed in co-operation with Bang & Olufsen (B&O).
LG decided to ditch the modular design for the successor LG G6 due to limited interest among consumers.

Worst phone ever
I bought the phone in June, at first I thought I would just have to get used to it. But the more I use it the more I dislike it. It's slow, my pictures get deleted, it overheats for no reason, even if the screen is off and noone is touching it.

The LG G5 has a metal body, with a separate frame and rear shell. It has dual-camera lenses which let you capture wider images than single lens as well detailed pics with natural colors in both day and night light conditions.
Pros:
- Good screen
- Excellent cameras and performance
- Modular design
Cons:
- Average battery

LG G5 review\n
It's easy to get sucked into the internet vortex of hate when it comes to smartphones. Little issues tend to be magnified. I didn't have a real issue with the G5's metal body not really feeling like metal - until it became a problem and somehow grew a crack where the modules meet the phone.
Pros:
- Innovative design
- USB-C
- QC 3.0 charging
- Excellent camera and fingerprint sensor
- Removable battery and microSD expansion
- Optional modules means additional functionality
Cons:
- Modular section may be ill-fitted
- Updated software is different
- not better
- Long-term viability of "Friends" unknown
- Display is aggressively dark in auto

Awesome phone, great screen and pictures
Very quick delivery. Got my new phone next day after placing my order. The phone is actually really nice and for the price I think this is one of the best phones that you can get. It looks amazing and it is not too big either. Just what I needed. I love the camera.

LG G5
There was lot of hype surrounding LG's quirky modular G5, but it didn't last all that long. The visions of this Project Ara like device with a wide selection of add-ons that you switch at will hasn't really happened, leaving us with a good phone that fails to stand out.
Pros:
- Lovely screen
- Great wide-angle camera
- USB-C fast charging
Cons:
- Dodgy build quality
- Software is on the ugly side
- Expensive modules

Upgraded from a iphone 4s
Took a couple of days to get used to after using an iPhone for so long but I'm really liking the phone...put a UAG case on it and installed a 64gb micro SD card...it'll serve my purpose. One thing I don't like about it is the email app...it doesn't allow me create folders to file/sort email.

Like this sharp. A really good phone at a reasonable price. Had previously a Samsung s4 that became too hot. This may also become slightly warm but not at all the same as p4 grade. Good camera and gently freed from all sorts of junk apps. Bought a photo module for 120 SEK.

Great price for a great phone
Had the phone for a few weeks and loving it. The camera is great, good battery life and lovely screen. I haven't used the modular bits as yet but plan on using the camera one soon. Same goes for the earphones haven't used them as yet so this is just based on the phone.
