Even if you have no interest in LG's modular functionality (which is yet to prove itself worthwhile), the G5 is still well worth considering as your next full-time smartphone. The dual camera setup is brilliant, offering impressive flexibility, while perf...
Move to metal construction is step in the right direction, Flagship class display, performance, and camera, Dual-camera system has massive creative potential, Friends modules prove situationally useful
Plagued by lack of refinement, Saddled with carrier bloatware, Overshadowed by better smartphone alternatives, Extra modules don't add enough value yet
More times than not, the Verge score is based on the average of the subscores below. However, since this is a non-weighted average, we reserve the right to tweak the overall score if we feel it doesn't reflect our overall assessment and price of the produ...
Great main camera, Beautiful display, Excellent fingerprint scanner, Wide-angle camera is useful, Modular design can be cool
Metal body doesn't feel premium, Battery life is average
The LG G5 is a great phone that suffers from living in the Galaxy S7's shadow. If the modular design is something that seems useful to you, the G5 is the obvious choice. The G5 doesn't quite live up to the hype of a modular phone, but it's still a very so...
The LG G5 is a really good phone, overall, just not the best phone at the moment. LG is introducing some interesting ideas with it, like modules and dual cameras, but the module status at the moment is pretty weak and uninteresting, while the dual came...
Cool modular design, Great wide-angle camera, Solid performance
Bland look, Below-average battery life, Heavy-handed software interface
I love that LG is trying to change things up with the G5's modularity, but overall the feature feels rushed. When unveiling the phone in February, LG touted a Hi-Fi module that was supposed to improve the phone's audio output, but the accessory in questio...

Replaceable battery, wideangle camera, useful camera modes, flexible home buttons
Fit and finish isn't up to similarly priced phones, not water resistant, screen technology not as good as others in its class
No-contract pricing of the G5 will vary depending on carrier. AT&T charges $689; T-Mobile, $630; Verizon, $624 and Sprint, $576. This is roughly what you'd expect to pay for a top-tier phone. Various contract pricings will also be available, depending on...
Speedy processor, Wide-angle camera mode and manual controls, Removable battery, Unique accessories
iderable carrier bloatware
The LG G5 for AT&T is a powerful smartphone with a semi-modular build, making it a unique alternative to more typical flagship handsets. But heavy software changes won't please Android purists...
Fantastic new design, Modular build brings lots of possibilities, Great display, Battery life is phenomenal, APT-X HD for 24-bit Bluetooth audio, Snapdragon 820 is ultra fast, Video is among the best on the market, Wide-angle lens makes for some really in
LG's UX 5.0 is as convoluted as ever, Carrier-exclusive band support rather than an International phone, Camera software is confusing, Photo quality is mediocre at best most of the time, Hi-Fi DAC from the V10 was obviously removed to sell the new Hi-Fi m
I went into this experience with high hopes and with fantastic first impressions. LG's presentation on all fronts is flashy, fluid and attractive to say the least. They've built this one up as something to break new ground, and in many ways, they've de...

Do the non-Friends features we've gone over here make the LG G5 a monster to be beaten by the rest of the premium smartphone universe? Sort of.Instead, I'd contend that while MANY premium smartphones continue to try to capture the success Apple has had wi...
Abstrakt: In this week's Plugged In, Mashable Tech Correspondent Ray Wong checks out LG's new flagship G5 Android and tells you how it tries to outperform its competitors. The G5 has a premium aluminum design, Qualcomm's latest and fastest processor, Android 6.0 Marshmallow, a big high-res screen, a great camera and even a fancy schmancy "modular design" with a removable batter...
