LG - V40 ThinQ with 64GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) - Aurora Black

The LG V40 represents the evolution of cameras on a mobile phone. The wide angle in front and back is, to me, the best choice LG made to their users. The unique item I belive they missed, is the capacity of the battery. Nowadays we really need more than that. It's not bad at all! But also is not the best one. Forget about buying other device. Until today, it is the best choice to a customer who cares about quality and tech solutions.

I love this phone. I'm very impressed with the workmanship in making this phone, which is a great improvement over the LG V20, and even greater improvement over the LG V30 Thin Q. I have owned both prior.

For the first time ever, I decided to try an unlocked phone instead of a Verizon branded version. There are a few feature limitations by Verizon which means I cannot use Visual Voicemail...so instead I have to use the old school voicemail. I also suspect that I do not have access to all of Verizon's data bands. On the upside, I do not have all of the uninstallable Verizon app bloat. Since I purchased what is considered an older model, Best Buy's sale price was a big factor in motivating this purchase versus buying something comparable through Verizon. The sale price made it an easy choice to choose this feature rich phone over others that might be a newer model...but are more expensive...or dropping to a mid-range phone that doesn't have water resistance or wireless charging. My previous phone was the LG G4 which I loved except for the well documented quality issues. LG took care of me on that phone so I was inclined to try another LG phone. LG also offers a second year of warranty on the V40...which was easy to register for. I will say that the build quality is very good and have no real complaints so far. I love the audio quality and volume.

I was waiting for this phone for a while and bought it as soon as it went on sale. Love it more than Samsung phones I owned and there is nothing to sacrifice, meanwhile you pay twice as less. The design is very sleek and classy. The phone doesn't feel cheap at all! The display is not saturated but is colorful enough. All functions are there for an average user: calls, texts, internet browsing and streaming, social media and using other apps. This phone is very fast. The speaker is loud. The fingerprint sensor works flawlessly and I like its position on the back of the phone, right in the center (hard to miss:) The main and the greatest feature of this phone is the camera! This is why I chose this phone. The pictures are spectacular! And I do demand high quality since I am into cell phone photography. There is nothing I can complain about and I highly recommend this phone to anybody!:)

I received this phone 2 DAYS before the official launch (in the mail). After few days of use...best phone ever. I used to use Samsung phones, then switched to iphones (forced at work), and now I am back to android but wanted to try this one based on the screen durability compared to other android phones. Everyone writes about the cameras (5 of them), with really cool effects..but I wanted to share other features. - SPEED = This phone is fast....really fast. the only thing I wait on is if an app itself is slow...the phone is as quick as I can tap (even playing videos...amazing) - NOTIFICATION = light up ring around the edge showing different colors, email is blue, text yellow.. - HAS A NOTE OPTION, I can not believe that no one has reviewed this. Right from the top menus you can make notes, and save to screen savers or a note pad...works really well with my ink pen that has a pad for on the other end for just such a device. You can text/type the notes, or draw them (super helpful), change colors, even write directly on the home screen. Even make them plain paper or lined. - BATTERY = People concerned about battery life should not be...I did quick charge one day and kept it topped off quickly and easily (and the 2nd day, I used it all day, with heavy usage and it didn't die) today, my day started at 6:45...listen to music from online station from 9:00 to 6:30 pm while working in garsfe, have been using and now at 11:35 pm has 20% battery left. SOUND = Loudest phone I have seen. Easily fills the room (I have to keep about 3/4 way up or its too loud) even though it only has one speaker....because of the sound chambers built into the phone it is amazing (Not to mention headphones sound better) - CUSTOMIZE= The home screen and tabs are extremely easy to customize. Even move the google bar where you want it. I have my 4 main contacts in the middle (that I use the most) so I just tap and can text them/call...etc, I also have a floating bar that I tap and it opens up other options...comes out from the edge of screen (very helpful...and can moved easily in aps if is is in the way). - SCREEN RESOLUTION =The screen resolution is AMAZING...I have had people comment already - even bringing up images attached in emails to show the team at the office look wayyyy better than any device (even laptop) then I have ever seen. - LG SKIN/BLOATWARE = The LG bloatware/skin is not nearly as bad as people make it out (barley any compared to other brands) and it actually does things that the straight android skin can not (much more intuitive) - HEY GOOGLE= works very fast and if you don't like the shortcut button on the side there is an option to turn it off. So people who have reviewed they accidentally hit it, should just turn it off (I am not hitting it accidentally, so I have it on) - Side thought, if you haven't used hey google.super helpful..even just the good morning and good night function are very helpful. - It has face recognition (I have not used but cool option) - SHORTCUT KEYS = - Ability to double tap the scree anywhere and it locks the phone (or unlocks it) - double tap down volume opens the camera quickly -double tab up volume brings up the notes I referred to earlier - Finder print senor in a great spot - Weight = Heavy enough to feel solid, but light enough to move easily in and out of pocket, hold for long periods of time...super well balanced. After a few days....easily the best phone I have ever used.

I had a V30 that I loved, buy it finally decided to retire. I looked at several brands but I always go back to LG because they offer a free 2nd year warranty. For the price this is a steal.The camera has so many modes for making your own avatar, selfies, stickers, portrait, AI, etc. I am very happy with my purchase & would recommend this phone. I have AT&T and since this phone is unlocked, activation was a breeze.

When I first got this phone I was very ehh about it. I'm not a big fan of LGs past phones. After using it for a week I love this phone. It has an excellent camera and battery life is fantastic! I get about a day an a quarters use from it. I work 12 hour days and I usually go to bed with somewhere around 35-40%. I love the comfort view I can make it black and white to completely eliminate the blue light. I haven't had any issues with it bogging down and stuttering. I have a N64 emulator and it runs no problem. HIGHLY RECOMEND!

Only had it a few days. The fingerprint button is just that. A fingerprint reader. Unlike the LG6. The button on the side handles shutting off/on etc. Im still learning the phone. It also a little taller than the 6. Im very happy with the speed. And ease of use. The google assist is much better. Im happy i chose this phone. Got it unlocked for a little over 500. Out the door. Seems like a great phone. It seems like the battery may go down a little faster than the 6. But not that much difference so far. And the camera is supposed to be excellent. Im still learning all the functions on that. Seems like LG has another winner. Im a old LG Fan.
