LG G5 First Impressions

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's the V Tube sacromonte super-safe TV and we have the LG g5 in house this is thanks to car from White House who have hooked me up now actually partnering with them for a giveaway so one of you guys can win one of these and details of that giveaway will be towards the end of this video as well as in the description below so do look out for that but firstly let's take a closer look at the device so LG have gone for a different design this year compared to last year's LG g4 we have a metal build and I have it in the silver which is exclusive to car from White House at the front is a 5.3 inch IPS panel which has a quad HD resolution so that's 2 560 by 1440 there's an 8 megapixel selfie cam up top and I was pretty impressed with the g4 selfie cam so I'm looking forward to checking this out there's also an earpiece as well as an LED notification light on the balm side of the front there's the logo as well as capacitive touch buttons so there is no physical buttons here on the bottom is a speaker a mic as well as a USB type-c input now this is something that many of the devices haven't got yet so it is nice to see on the top is a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack another mic as well as an IR blaster I know a lot of you were disappointed because the s7 does not have this anymore but LG have maintained it on the right side there's a sim and memory card tray so this device is expandable using a micro SD card on the left hand side is a volume rocker so we don't actually have the volume buttons on the back this time and there's also a button towards the bottom which we'll be talking about in a little bit moving on to the back you can see the stand out feature here which is the dual camera setup so you have one 16 megapixel camera which is your primary camera but you also have a super wide angle 8 megapixel camera I can't wait to check out these cameras in upcoming camera comparisons so if you want to see those then make sure you do hit that thumbs up button you also have a dual LED flash as well as your infrared autofocus then you have your fingerprint scanner and power button so this is actually on the back and it's gonna be similar to the LG Nexus 5x which did work really well the difference here is because it's a power button you can press it down to switch the device on and off now let's move on to the bottom side of the back and this is removable because of the modular design so if you press that button that we looked at earlier this pops out and you can replace the two thousand eight hundred million battery now once again this is something that a lot of manufacturers are moving away from so for those of you who like having that flexibility I'm sure you'll be happy to see this feature now not only can you change the battery but you can actually purchase other modules which LG are calling LG friends such as a camera module and others to come I'll have to test some of these other modules out before I can really comment on it let me know what you guys think in terms of my first impressions they are pretty positive overall I know there's been some controversy around the build but my unit anyway seems to be fine it does look and feel quite premium now I wouldn't say this is the best-looking device out there but you do have to give some credit to LG for doing something different with this sort of modular design and it's probably one of the only devices out there that still features a removable battery expandable memory as well as an IR blaster this is something we're seeing much less of so the LG g5 now that we've got it in-house is going to be followed up by the usual super soft style coverage so make sure you do stay tuned for that now let's talk about the giveaway because I know all of
