    Very fast phone with high resolution, great battery life, and great cameras. Sound not perfect, but use the headphones (theres a jack!). Strangely, I actually use the FM radio feature alot (it works without an internet connection and is really interesting and novelty for people). Want more accessories for it because it's so good!

    Bought this over a year ago and still running fast. The best feature is the battery. It could last 3 days on standby! The only gripe I have is the fingerprint reader does not work well...never seems to recognize the fingerprint.

    It's a pretty solid phone. I've never been one for paying top-dollar for a feature phone, so getting this in the $6xx range was great. It does the job, and I have no complaints. Camera is solid, plenty of memory and storage. Not a feature phone in 2020 and was not purchased to be.

    I have only had this phone for about 3 wks but I can say it's my favorite phone. So many features and a camera that takes pictures the way you see them quality is on point. It's sleek lite and easy to use. I had no issues setting up an unlocked phone on my network and it was free.

    I went from a Pixel 2 to the unlocked G8. Tried and returned the Verizon version as it was full of bloat-ware some of which I suspect was collecting data. While not the seamless Google Android experience, it is really close. I have had the phone a couple weeks now and can say it is a great phone.

    This one isn't on most peoples' list to buy, but it is a stellar device that is packed with some great features for a discounted price right now. Works out of the box with 100% T-Mobile compatibility (WiFi calling, HD calling, VOLTE). I really enjoy the sound from connected, wired earphones. It is fabulous, due to the quad DAC. If you want to be blown away, get some really good headphones and listen to some true FLAC quality music. You won't be disappointed by buying this phone as long as your expectations are in line with your budget.

    I bought this phone to replace an older LG phone that only had 16 GB of internal storage. It was constantly running out of space. This phone has 128 GB of internal storage, so I should not run out of space on it for quite a while.

    I have always been a LG fan. This LG G8 does not disappoint. Read the stats. This phone has pleanty of room for multitasking, storage, and runs on the current, stable Snapdragon CPU. It does not lag, it's just smooth. Besides the stats, I love a phone that I can put in my front pocket without it sticking out. LG's minimal GUI is close to a pure Android OS (unlike Samsung's GUI which duplicates so many Android apps & hogs resources). PS...my phone came with plug in headphones, a clear case and a 2 year LG Warranty. The headphones also are the antenna for it's built in FM radio! (I do not know if the Carrier version of this phone has the FM Radio).

    Wow, I did not expect to get a big deal on this, phone works wonderfully! It brought a phone case, earbuds, the box it comes in and a year warranty with the company, now that's amazing! It even had a sim key so I can insert your sd card or sim card in, I know this suppose to be the usual but I don't get this treatment at metropcs, they over price everything too and charge for more for cases, no free one so I'm just happy , definitely gonna buy here again, I would recommend anyone to get their electronics here!

    A good phone, but not a great phone

    Made the switch from a dying Samsung to the LG; have mixed feelings. The colors and graphics from the OLED screen are beyond fantastic. The phone is fast and the sound is good. However, the spell check is primitive and very frustrating, and is almost never helpful. The worst part is a dead spot in the screen located right above the send button in messaging - which means that I often have to tap send 6-8 times before it works. I expected better, as all of my other LG products to date have been stellar.

    I've only had this phone for a couple of weeks but so far so good. Overall it's user friendly, fast and a good value for the money. Coming from several years of using HTC I must say this LG G8 ThinQ is a nice change of pace. Time will tell for overall quality and durability but at this time I believe it's up to the task of meeting my needs for a few years to come.
