What customers say about "Processor"

LG G6 Sim-Free Smartphone

The 821 is plenty fast for normal users.
Last year's good processor.
If you read reviews, you will see that the processor is not quite as speedy as the Qualcomm 835 that comes with the Samsung S8.

What customers say about "Camera"

LG G6 Sim-Free Smartphone

Wide angle camera lets you take a wider view of the background in your pictures.
Lag on picture taking. I had the Note 8 and you could instantly take pics. This one seems to have a lot longer shutter time.

What customers say about "Features"

LG G6 Sim-Free Smartphone

Knock: double tap twice on your screen to turn it on.
Fingerprint reader is pretty responsive and accurate.
Micro SD slot for those who need that additional bit of storage space.
There are a handful of junk apps which are not needed but most can be uninstalled or disabled.
Power button and fingerprint reader is in the back of the phone which needs some getting used to.

What customers say about "Power"

LG G6 Sim-Free Smartphone

Battery lasts all day no problem.
The battery life is good enough to get me through the day with around 20-40%.
Long battery life and quick charge.
Biggest let down is the middling battery life.
The battery life is about average. I list that as a con, because this is a flagship running an 821. It should be better than average.
