Outstanding Offering by LG

Verified Purchase:Yes
First let me note that I am coming from the LG G3 and was completely satisfied with that phone. However with gift cards from my job totalling enough to buy the phone outright, I took advantage and upgraded to the LG v20.
It is without a doubt the best phone I have ever owned. It is quick, has a beautiful display, and checks all the boxes for me in what I wanted from a smart phone. Especially important was the need for expandable storage and removable batteries. While it is the largest phone I have owned I don't have problems with one handed operation (I am 6 feet though). It does have the Mini Screen functionality that allows you to shrink the screen to a more comfortable size when needed. I do use from time to time and it works flawlessly by swiping across the bottom of the screen in either direction.
I am on Verizon and have had no issues. I have not experienced any lag or performance issues, though for the record I am not a gamer. Battery life is average I would say and lasts me thoughout the day with moderate use. Please take that comment with a grain of salt because there are SO many variables affecting battery life (background apps running, location, ie being in an area that is looking for a cell signal which drains the battery, etc.) But having extra batteries resolves any concerns for me in that regard. I carry a spare battery with me always for days when I will be out later than I expected. I also swap each morning between a battery I charged overnight and the battery I used the prior day. Stand by time btw is excellent. Very little battery drain.
Pictures under the right lighting are outstanding. Otherwise the pictures are pretty good. Same regarding videos though I haven't done a lot of video recording. I don't have enough high quality music files to comment on the DAC but otherwise the music quality is really nice. Having all my music in iTunes when Apple is no longer making high capacity ipods, I am absolutely thrilled that I can now download ALL my songs onto my 256 Gig SD card and have my music with me at all times.
All that AND an IR blaster! I am good for a while!
Hope this review is helpful and that if you purchase the phone you will be as pleased as I am.
