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.

"LG G5 is going places"

In my opinion, I see LG G5 phone as a mobile technology that are user friendly. It has good features that can keep customers coming back. The long lasting battery and clear voice modulation is what make it stand out from the crowd.
Pros:
  • affordable
  • light in weight
Cons:
  • takes longer time to charge

Now, more than ever, manufacturers are exploring alternative ways to differentiate smartphones. One savior to the oversaturated smartphone market, that is rife with products with similar specifications, may come in the form of modularity.

Better priced and at least as good as its Apple equivalent

A good phone with clear mono sound. It has a clear to see screen which is quite large, but mine can be a bit temperamental when you swipe to answer a call. It has a great dual lens camera and fingerprint sensor security.

New LG G5 Dual SIM 16MP 32GB Smartphone Pink review

The LG G5 reflects a significant change in strategy for LG. The company continues to commit to excellent performance, but no longer wishes to push the limits of raw computing or camera sensor power just to win the technological race.

New LG G5 Dual SIM 16MP 32GB Smartphone Pink review

The company turned an interesting smartphone, which undoubtedly will be one of the main events of the beginning of the year, although not in any way will not be able to compete in strength and importance with the announcement from Samsung .

LG G5 review: An imperfect start to LG's modular future

Cool ideas that don't pan out So there's a lot to unpack when it comes to the G5 and a number of questions that still need answering. Will more "Friends" accessories be announced, and are third-party manufacturers even interested in releasing accessories for the phone?
Pros:
  • Camera is impressive
  • especially secondary wide-angle shooter
  • Metallic body is a welcome shift for LG
  • Always-on display is customizable
  • Modular port could evolve into something great
Cons:
  • Design looks "unfinished
  • Strange software quirks
  • Build quality and value of Cam Plus is questionable
  • Unclear how many modular accessories will be released

Featured Review: LG G5

I went into this experience with high hopes and with fantastic first impressions. LG's presentation on all fronts is flashy, fluid and attractive to say the least. They've built this one up as something to break new ground, and in many ways, they've definitely done that here.
Pros:
  • Fantastic new design
  • Modular build brings lots of possibilities
  • Great display
  • Battery life is phenomenal
  • APT-X HD for 24-bit Bluetooth audio
  • Snapdragon 820 is ultra fast
  • Video is among the best on the market
  • Wide-angle lens makes for some really interesting shots and video
Cons:
  • LG's UX 5.0 is as convoluted as ever
  • Carrier-exclusive band support rather than an International phone
  • Camera software is confusing
  • Photo quality is mediocre at best most of the time
