This is a fairly powerful phone based on the Snapdragon 820 bit, 4GB of RAM and dual cameras ane with 1/2.6″ sensor size @ 29mm, and the other at 1/3.ii″ sensor size @ 12mm with laser Machine focus. I large negative is no waterproofing and for some the absence of wireless charging.

As you can see even with all the ability and the use of the latest Android OS Nougat; the phone uses a fairly low frame rate sensor combination that maxes slow motion at 120fps in HD 720p.  This is a let down every bit the phone does really well with 4k UHD resolution matching and fifty-fifty exceeding sharpness in the iPhone 7 during tests. The dual camera setup on the LG V20 is a skillful performer all around and should compete favorably with the best out at that place; except for frame rates that is.

VLOG #1 w/ LG V20 Camera! by Max Lee:

As you can see from the samples the 120fps Hard disk 720p manner does ok especially when it comes to aliasing and moire artifacts which are well controlled. It seems that the sensors on the back cameras are probably not skipping lines in these phones.  One other plus is the audio notwithstanding records during slow move fashion which is a big deal for some people.

24 Chip Sound Recording: The LG V20 has a play a joke on up it'south sleeve that not many other phones can touch and that is the ability to record sound  at 24-bit/192kHz  in a FLAC file wrapper. LG Claims studio quality recording from better noise filtering, a limiter and ameliorate shielding.  It even comes with a  studio style app that lets yous configure and record audio on the phone with professional person settings.

When it comes to video and audio recording you tin record footage on the telephone at 24bit 48khz in Lossless LPCM which is the same as many professional person video camcorders.

The audio recording would not be good if the microphones did not friction match the recording spec. LG says the V20 has 3 High Acoustic Overload Point microphones for a truthful ambient recording with extreme clarity.

Concluding Discussion:

All in all this is a peachy phone pick for fifty-fifty 2017 since it ticks a lot of boxes and the performance is good all around. Equally a slow move device we wish it did at least 120fps at total Hard disk 1080p and 240fps at 720p; with the quality displayed information technology should have been a top contender in those modes.

If you are a Fan of the LG G4 and or G5, this new LG V20 does even better in 4k and HD video quality and should be on your short listing for a new phone that supports Android 7 Nougat. The audio recording and playback in true Hullo-Fi territory is a major plus for Audiophiles. For slow motion however at that place are meliorate options like the Google Pixel, Nexus 6P and Apple's iPhone seven or 6s.
