Q: My LG G4 boot looped and died. Can I use the Sim card from that LG in this G5?

A: I replaced my LG G3 with an unlocked LG G5. The good people at best buy took the micro-SIM out of the G3, trimmed it slightly to turn it into a nano-SIM, and placed it in my new G5. It worked great. Your G4 uses a micro-SIM, just like my G3 did. Best Buy should be able to trim it to work in a new G5.

Q: Is this a H850 model?

A: No it's an RS988

Q: what companies can I use this phone with?? is it compatible to T-mobile or Sprint?

A: I was with T-Mobile before moving to Ting (great company, by the way. So affordable!) and used our LG phones with them. T-Mobile is a GSM carrier.

Q: Will it work with ATT? I have a G4 now. Will my sim card fit?

A: Absolutely, it's universal GSM unlocked. I am also using AT&T

Q: Will this phone work with tello? It's a carrier from Sprint. Needs to be cdma..gsm. ..that I know for sure

A: Tello wireless network services are provided on the Nationwide Sprint® Network and Sprint is a CDMA provider. The specifications for the LG - G5 4G LTE with 32GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) on its product information page on the Best Buy site show it is compatible with both CDMA and GSM networks and will operate on 1900, 800 and 850 CDMA 2G Frequencies, 1700, and 850, 700 2100, 2600, 1900,1900, 2100, 850, and 900 CDMA 3G Frequencies and on the 1700, 1800, 1900, 2100, 2600, 700, and 850 4G LTE Frequencies...^IFV

Q: Is there a warranty if something does not work?

A: Great question! The G5 does carry a 1 year manufacturer's warranty for any manufacturing defects.

Q: It comes with no carrier(AT&T, LT&Verizon) bloatware, right? can i get updates in India? Can i get warranty in India?

A: Its universal GSM unlocked, no carrier bundle and no bloatware. Its almost pure android experience. You will get updates in india. For warranty, i am unsure that whether lg service center in india will entertain you and render any support service. However, you can register your product with lg and contact them for support (you need to ship to lg manufacturing in south korea). Please note, if you purchase it from best buy, it will be loaded with android NOUGAT (version 7.0) although description lays Marshmellow (version 6.0)
