LG G5 review
KEY FEATURES:
WHAT IS THE LG G5?
The LG G5 isn’t a great modular phone – it’s biggest feature – but it’s still a worthy rival to the HTC 10 , One Plus3 and Samsung galaxy S7 thanks to a sharp screen and equally impressive camera. It might not quite match those illustrious competitors, but LG once again shows it can think outside of the box when it comes to building a phone.
Actually, the G5 has us very excited for the possible LG G6 that we’ll no doubt see next year. The groundwork has been laid here, but there’s improvements that need to be made; notably the poor build quality.
Still, it's a nice improvement over the LG G4.
LG G5 – DESIGN AND MODULES
Metal body, removable battery, modular system, rear fingerprint sensor, sloped top, 159g
In pictures the LG G5 looks curvy and sleek, but pick up the smartphone and it feels oddly hollow.
LG played up its switch from the plastic body of the LG G4 to a metal one on the G5. However, in the hand the G5 really doesn’t feel like any other metal phone I’ve come across. the handset has an odd finish that feels much more like plastic than the advertised “microdized” metal. I do like the slightly sloping top, though, but it's the only feature that sets it apart.
