Appreciate the straight forward review mate. My wife and I went from Android phones to iphone 8's when they released and now we're going back to Android with the Velvet today because of your POV.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I still use LG G6 because in my country it had a great price and everything I needed, it is very durable withstood an accident on a motorcycle and hitting the road at high speed and in the meantime there was no smartphone on which I think it would be worth spending my money, they were either too expensive or did not have the things I need but now it has changed LG at an acceptable price for me has things that I need and in my country it adds a dual screen for free in promotion, so it's time to change the phone
@@czaja995 Damn, I also still use the LG G6 and it’s been working great although slightly showing its age at this point, it’s also been extremely durable for me, I’ve never even had a case for it, Although I have had a Dbrand skin on it for about 1-2 years now and can definetily recommend Dbrand, the skin is as solidly on as ever. Only small gripe about the velvet for me is the 1080p display, I’d prefer a 1440p after using that on a 5.7 inch display for about 3.5 years now oh and I will never give up on the headphone jack and micro sd slot

@@JJop123 my g8 got Android 10 before my OnePlus 6t, and was second behind my note 10 by like a few days. While yes LG historically took forever to put out updates they've gotten better within these past 2 generations of phones and streamlining how many phones they put out will help that.
@@JJop123 didn't have a OnePlus 7 pro, both the 6t and 7 pro were having issues with Android 10, and both also got Android 10 around the same time. So it wasn't really a new phone gets the update first thing while the older phone gets it months later like it tends to work. Plus the 6t is still widely used so it's still relevant to the convo for at least one more update cycle given oneplus's track record. Lol
Always have been an LG lover. Have been using LG since the G2. Having owned every G and V series phones, I know LG. But you are the best at making it the best it is and that" the other guys" just complain about LG because they are LG. Thanks. Keep up the awesome, open minded, honest reviews!
@@SomeGadgetGuy 4 reasons why I am still sticking to my LG v20 Running Android 8.0 Oreo. 1. obviously removable battery, which can be powered by a extended battery case. 2. 16:9 aspect ratio. I really don't get it, why on earth manufacturers use narrow aspect ratios, the widescreen is really awesome to type. 3. That second screen is so freakin awesome, if you get back to using it I think you'll love it, no notch, no stupid punch holes. 4. IR blaster, if you can reach out to LG tell them at least people in India still need LG quick remote
@@arnold_m_xavier The V60 would be an excellent upgrade for you. Yeah sure no removable battery but it's 5,000 mah battery is more than enough. Dual screen is everything the second screen well if you think about it the dual screen is the second screen 2.0. I'm upgrading to the V60 from my G8 and keeping my G8 as a backup I just want that dual screen.
@@quv2035 I simply love LG v60. only two things are keeping me away from it. 1. narrow aspect ratio. foolishness. 2. teardrop notch on both displays. Stereo friend firing speakers with dolby atmos could have been freaking awesome
You're amazing! Finally a review that deals with the whole package in a way I can understand. I have always had a soft spot for LG and I am super-stoked that this phone is finally living up to a lot of the potential I have seen in the brand. :) Love from Canada
You are the best phone reviewer on RUclips, in my opinion. Your channel is not the same tired phrases and options, heavily influenced by a manufacturers reviewer guide. You make genuine, real world comparisons. Your opinions are well thought out and communicated well. A lot of other channels would make a video, and actually look like they are unsure or still figuring it out when they release their "review". I appreciate you and your videos. You are severally under-rated.
@@SomeGadgetGuy That's so true. I can use it one handed, the battery is still going strong and I keep finding new features to use. I picked it up on the big sale in November after Thanksgiving back in 2017.
I went from the v30 to v60.. Great choice duel screen power user... His reviews are great and practical... V60 and velvet are going to be theist underrated phones of the year... I got a Bogo deal for v60 from tmobile making it $400! With dual screens!...what a steal!
Going to be selling these soon at work, thanks for the breakdown, definitely beneficial. I used your discussion on the v60 to explain to my employees the benefit of lg
The tech world will "discover" dual screen phones when the Duo is released but still find ways to bash LG for doing the same thing with more flexibility.
@@SomeGadgetGuy And now LG among others are looking into scrolling screen technology. The others will try to move the goal post should said technology hypothetically be more useful than foldable single screens.
Lg isn't the same manufacturer from a yr ago I'm loving the direction they're heading... Your evaluation of lg and unbias opinion is a breath of fresh air you hit this out the park with everything you said
yeah, I have been leaning towards Sony since last year and especially this year's phones for my next phone upgrade but seeing how LG is improving, I might stick with LG
I would love a V60 vs Velvet camera comparison focused on value proposition. I see at T-Mobile that the V6 is going for $810 right now with the dual screen case. They have not announced their pricing for the Velvet yet, but it's looks like it'll probably be something like $700 with the dual screen case. Is the the extra $100 or so worth it?
The only actual reviews seem to come from you and Mr. Mobile. (though I think you still cover devices more completely than anyone else) I'm glad you do what you do :)
The reason this phone doesn't get the love it deserves is because the logo attached to it. If the same phone was made by certain companies, it would be considered revolutionary and a game changer for the mid range market.
Yep completely. I hear all this hype about the Microsoft Surface Duo.... I'm like ...But... LG already has something like this.... even better since it can become a single screen phone.
I remember when Motorola's Atrix came out with one of the first finger print unlock systems ever for smartphones...no one really cared that much, but literally years later when Apple announced their version of the concept, EVERYONE lost their minds and made out Apple to be some industry hero...LG faces the same unfair market responses and its all because consumers are just a bunch of sheep...I know this because I studied Business Marketing in college, it's the art of training consumers to want what you tell them.
I've been doing a lot of phone research bc my v30 is starting to struggle (after 3 years of constant use and being dropped 40k times. Several it which were in the shower... That's a thing normal humans do) and I'm so, so glad I found your review. I've been baffled by a lot of the LG reviews I've seen - it seems like people would list off a bunch of silly complaints or, worse, list off a bunch of positives and then rate the phone poorly. The thing that almost had me pulling out my hair was reviewers who complained about LG attempts at innovation with the g8 gesture stuff AND complained that the company is stagnant and all the phones never change. It... Cant be both. They get that it can't be both, right? You can hate the innovation, but then you cant complain that they never innovate. Especially when you're also going to praise iPhones for doing the same thing for like 15 versions. I've watched *DOZENS* of reviews and you were the first one I saw that even mentioned the v60 and velvet had wacom pen pressure sensitivity. Like... What? How is that not even getting an offhand, throw away comment from other reviewers? That's huge for a lot of people. That's like not bothering to mention that the iPad pro can be used with the apple pencil. Yeah, it's not everyone's use case, but come on! I shouldn't have to specifically search "phones for artists" in order to find out that little bit of info. What I've learned is RUclips tech reviewers are kind of baffling. But also thank you!!! After hours and hours and hours of research, I totally know what phone I'm getting now and you've saved me hundreds of dollars and disappointment.
You can install v60 camera APK on velvet to get manual video I think Galaxy a80 had dex support with limited windows Dxomark didn't update v60 video stabilization All pics were taken in first days of June
I watched quite a few reviews on the lg velvet before i bought it. And all of them were extremely critical of the camera and its cpu and display only being 60hz. They were so out of touch with normal consumers, all they thought about was how this phone stacked up against the far less stylish and lower quality built chinese phones like the one plus and other instead of comparing it to the phones from other major manufacturers like apple and Samsung around the same price. Because when you do that the lg velvet suddenly looks like the best deal around for a no compromise phone that wont break the bank. The lg velvet has a really good battery at 4300mah, a more than good enough 1080p poled panel, a very good for any normal human being f1.8 12mp camera that offers excellent photos and videos for social media (all social media apps limit videos to 1080p so stfu about needing 4k and 8k), an unrivaled build with gorrila glass front and back with a polished metal frame, and one of the best audio experiences for a mobile device that isnt a dap or ipod. The $500 Samsung a71 5g comprises heavily on the cpu with a exynos chip and heavily on materials with only a plastic back and gorrila glass 3 on the front. The iphone xr is a similar story. The velvet is just an all round great phone for a normal human for $600.
WHOA! this review..made me wanna subscribe,well done.now i think this is a phone i will get. i dont even think this should be called review,something just above that,you didn't tear down the other companies,you brought them in the convo to compare or speak about thats it.i enjoyed the rather long video.i dont usually
Probably rather definitely the best review on this phone. Its a shame that lg dropped off after such good phones. Yeah I think I should grab the velvet while it's available.
Serious question. I have a OnePlus 6T, previously had an LG V20 (a phone I loved but due to screen issues had to trade in for OP 6T). My 6T is in good condition, but almost 2 years old. I am in the market for a replacement, but Samsung current flagships don't interest me, aside from the Note 10 and Fold (outside my economic range). The only phones that kind of get my attention, because new phones are getting boring, are the OP 8 and the LG V60 with Dual Screen. I'm on T-Mobile. My main use is gaming, media consumption (mostly videos), work (Office365) and college (Office 365, books and classroom platforms). What phone you guys recommend? Listening to other options as well.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I mostly use my phone for multimedia and Office365 apps. My main concern is battery life, connection stability, storage capacity, and responsiveness. When I had the V20 I used split screen apps continuously, but with the OP 6T I don't use this feature.
@@ReyCorolla go for tge v60. It has expandable storage and dual screen which is fantastic. Also it has 5000 mah battery with 60 hz screen so it should last longer than the op 8.
@@ReyCorolla if you want an excellent battery life 10+ hours of SOT then V60 if you can settle for less then i think u can go for Oneplus 8 as i think is better then v60 other then battery
This is why I love your reviews, they're always well thought out, clear and concise. No other RUclips is doing reviews as well as you are in my honest opinion
Why doesnt the Velvet have manual video controls? And am I going to have to worry about losing all the great manual controls for both photo and video if my V35 & V40 get the android 10 velvet UI update?
@@SomeGadgetGuy thank god. That's part of what keeps me in with LG. I really enjoy shooting video more than photography. So when I started messing with manual controls for the first time with my first LG V35 device I about lost it.
I dont trust any lg review that not from this channel. It goes in depth for features that are slept on. Your reviews are the reason im using a G7 capturing my images in raw and controlling the look myself. So now that im shopping for an upgrade. Theres only one channel i turn to
Great reviews. Found you looking for info on the V60 to replace my G6. Now the Velvet is here. Will wait until Velvet hits Verizon and see what deals the two have.
HI great video, I am wondering if you could help with the setting for the camera and for video I heard that the 765 has a hard time doing 4K, so the settings are important to me to get the best pictures and video, keep up the good work.
I've been lukewarm on Samsung, especially making "statement" phones like the folds, but I have to give the A series a lot of credit. Samsung used to make some of the worst "poor person" lite phones, and now A51 and A71 are MUCH better options.
I was going to go from my V35 to the V60, but I think you just convinced me to go with the Velvet instead. honestly aside from the whole DAC removal, the only thing I really have as gripes with this phone is how curved it's display is and there's no more unlocked LG's
Thank you for the review. Yesterday (the day before this video was aired) I just bought a V50 from eBay to use on T-Mobile. Got an unlocked Sprint one instead of Korean version with rather unrefined dual screen. I'm using the old faithful V20 on its 3rd battery, really digging the headphone jack and wide angle selfie that ends on V50. After seeing your review, i might return the V50 for Velvet for its perfect blend of design, functionality, price and matured dual screen. Sad to let go of wide-angle selfie, though. That was often the only phone to capture everyone in family events with arms reach! Your reviews always have wonderful content, and the script is fantastic with good humor with no redundant words. Thank you for the great work!
Thank you for the reminder about (no) 5G on Sprint V50. That's another reason to go with Velvet instead. Another thing I enjoyed on V20 is to manually tune sound levels when recording loud concerts. Is that the part of quad dac that exists on Vs only? Being a new dad now I'll have to part my band days for awhile so that's probably no longer a bid deal for next 4 years. Thank you Juan.
Me make algorithm happy and post comment. My comment is this.... I've had this phone for 10 days now and the day I was allowed to install a SIM this became my one of my daily drivers!
Hi, thanks for a great review. Could you please also tell (with an answer here in the comments or in a video) how the Velvet performs when the Dual Screen phone is used in a "mini laptop-mode" with the one part placed on a table and the other part used in an angel as a screen like a laptop? How is writing in this mode, when the base part/screen is used as a keyboard? How does the screen work as a keyboard? And how does the apps function with the two displays in this mode, when used in writing? Thanks for answer, for this matter is barely mentioned in the various reviews.
Love your reviews man this is the guy you surprised on Reddit when I shouted your channel out on the LG v60 subreddit !!! Your one of only like two others I trust
Juan, you kill me with your radio voice (in a good way). Anyway, stumbled upon an old PocketNow video with you. Didn't even know worked there. It was an LG phone review of course (LG G6). Love your channel.
My god, 9:35 is a straight dig at a lot mainstream so called reviewers, actually advertisers to be precise. Just love your work man. If possible have a collab with Techspurt.
Thank you so much for not jumping on iPhone and Samsung bandwagon like Most phone reviewers lg made excellent phones. Most people don't need phones to be as powerful or more powerful than a laptop there has been too much hype behind the latest computer power.. And thank you for making a honest review of lg phones I will miss their phones in the mobile market.. At the end of the day there own advertising techniques killed a good phone manufacturer.. Good bye lg u will be missed 😥
I just wish lg retained the quad dac feature on the velvet, even the old lg q7 has it. Btw juan, does ur v50 gestures still keeps restarting to buttons only when changing to scheduled night mode even after the recent software update?
Just got the velvet with the dual screen and I must say, it's absolutely gorgeous. I only have one worry, that's the dual screen's hinges. Have you had any wear on the hinges through the months? Any suggestions to keep it from becoming loose? Should I get a spare dual screen if I am able to find one at a decent price? Other than that, it looks like a solid device. Definitely happy with my purchase.
Literally my first ever comment on a youtube video (and my first ever like as well!). Seriously man, I watch all the 'big' reviewers and you are one of, if not the best I've watched. How you're not pulling in more people I've no idea. Regardless, keep it up man, every video of yours I've watched (and it's a lot!) has been fantastic. Cheers!
Awesome informational review on the Velvet. I'm liking LG phones more and more. The design of this phone looking great. Thanks for sharing the details and 👍 up Juan
You are the only reviewer who ever gives and honest review on LG phones ..anytime LG releases a new phone I don't even bother with anyone else but your videos
Aw I appreciate that. A few of us out there though. My buddy TK. I think Flossy stays really consistent. It's worth sampling around. But you should still stick with me 😁👍
@@marmz3310 nope but everything is better in the G8 on the Specs sheet and from the test I saw... The G8, V40 & V50 are actually the most complete phones from LG, from screen to processor... (This stands only if you're not into the dual-screens thing)
I do love LGs dual screen cases but some usage nitpicks are annoying. One issue with the magnetic charger is using Android Auto. The size of the phone in the case restricts where you can store it stably while driving. If it moves around the cable can easily detach and interrupt the connection, forcing a restart of the Auto app. Which can distract from driving. It might be a bit more obscure, but another point against the magnetic charger is both the adapter and the case port filling up with ferrous material. I work in a machine shop and get much more exposure to this problem than most but I have to clean both of them out on a regular basis to get a connection.
For me, Juan's review is a breath of fresh air in support of the many unbiased reasons why I made my choice to go with the LG Velvet. I put in a lot of research into my choice for my next phone, and I carefully studied many, many, many video reviews to weed out unreasonable and biased information. I wanted somewhat high-end at reasonable cost... and I eventually chose the LG Velvet, a mid-level phone. At a Verizon special price of $140 for the phone and an LG price of $180 for the Dual Screen... I feel I have been fortunate and found excellent value in a solid package that meets my current needs. To complete, I just need an Active Pen... suggestions? A great & comforting review, Juan!
The Blackberry Passport was my previous phone, a great phone but a lot of apps do not work anymore, so i was looking for a replacement. Then i came across your channel and you convinced me to buy the LG Velved and i did. Just waiting for the dualscreen case. LG is rather slow with sending this to me. But so far i am happy with the purchase. It can be a great replacement for the Blackberry. When you have the time: i'm interested in how to set up the desktop function and use it as a laptop replacement. Which office apps are useful like Outlook or Word and Excel. Looking forward to your next review.
I've seen people compare the Velvet to the V60, but I'd like to have your opinion on the LG Velvet vs LG G8X. They're kind of similar and I'm contemplating which to get. Always appreciate your in-depth reviews.
G8X is a better phone, more powerful, but the Velvet is a more refined dual screen device and has the 5G. It all kinda depends on what you want/need more.
Hi. Brand new subscriber. Love your review! Question: Did the dual screen come with the phone or was this a bonus or separate accessory? Totally new to LG and looking for new user for smart phones period. Lol. What stylus do you use.
Carriers bundled it with the V60, but it was sold separately with the Velvet. It's not REALLY a part of the phone, so it messed up warranty issues for folks with the V60. People would get mad if it wasn't covered under phone insurance.
I don't know much about phones... but is the dual-screen like a case? Do you buy the LG Velvet and it attaches to the dual-screen as a phone case would? Also, if that is the procedure do you have to buy them separately, or is there a bundle deal. Again, sorry for the stupid question. This is my first time ever looking into a dual-screen phone.
It is a case. HOW you buy the case will likely come down to what carrier you use. Often it get bundled as an accessory, but depending on how you buy it, it might be separate.
Have you thought about a comparison between the Velvet and the V60? That would be interesting. Also ive seen that the T-Mobile version is different that as it has the MediaTek Dimensity 1000C processor. How is that different that the Snapdragon 765 5G? Your the man when it come to these types of reviews. Thanks for the time you put into the audio and video reviews on all those phones.
Sounds like a super interesting option. Unfotunately, I found already the G8S was too large to handle for me. And the Velvet is even bigger. Hoping that LG will come back with a more handy option like a Velvet mini in about the size of the former G-Series.
Juan, what do you think of T-Mobile using the mediatek dimensity 1000c processor in their LG Velvet phones? Plus T-Mobile is offering it for half the price if I trade-in my lg g7. Good upgrade?
Considering the Canadian version launched with a $200 Visa gift card and BT earbuds, I'm curious to see what kind of carrier deals we might see for the Velvet here.
I love the way u go hard for lg cause people really be trying to do them in and I've owned a few of them last one being the v30 and before that was a g4 and although I had the loop issue I wasn't giving up so I found a way around it and never had another issue besides that I'm waiting on my velvet now coming from iPhone 11 and I cant wait to get it
ive been taking a look at LG Devices for a long time now, theres very limited options in Malaysia for LG devices, as in, theyre not widely available here, just in the secondhand market. for about RM900 (250$), do you think the LG G8 is a worthy buy?
Is the dual screen case carrier-specific? Verizon doesn't offer dual screen option. Only at&t has it, and LG sites offers "Dual screen case for AT&T". Thanks!
So im assuming lg velvet has better audio quality right now available in the market, did lg velvet also support hires audio? Since in gsmarena doesn't include in specs description
Thank-you for doing this. Seriously. I've been looking for a good phone to buy and your reviews have helped me the most. I've been laughing for the last few days because I watched a few popular creators who reviewed the V60 wondering why it's not selling more. Then I watched their initial review and they complained about every feature that made it stand out/practical/versatile. Like 3 guys straight did this. Literally can't make this up.
I already have LG v30 in India and I am planning to upgrade to LG velvet- snapdragon 845 4g version only for the bigger screen, looks and slightly better processor. Will this be a improved camera upgrade or worse downgrade. Please suggest.
@@SomeGadgetGuy thank you sir for your prompt response. I have thoroughly enjoyed your honest and meaningful reviews on all the LG phones till date. I have been using only LG phones since 2010 and I always felt that they offer great value and the best part is their infrequent OS updates don't mess with the longevity of the phone unlike other so called big brands. Most don't notice this fact. Anyways me and my friends in India will miss your reviews on LG phones in future. Take care ❤️
You don't have to convince me. I'm a new LG family member this year (V60 Dual Screen) and I love my phone. I almost made the mistake of overpaying for a Samsung phone that have more features that I don't actually need and probably will never use. But, I will definitely use a lot of features on this phone. BTW this video was definitely a rant against other shady reviewers. I support you.
OMG You did so much for LG 😭 YOU SHOW LG JUSTICE!! I LOVE YOU MAN!!!! ♥️
I just realised that many reviewers are being so weird and against LG 😢 I understand some but, seriously?! THIS DUAL SCREEN IS A FUCKING MASTERPIECE IDEA!
And those reviewers are still complaining and saying stupid mockery on this dual screen.. I'm losing my mind..
And no, I'm not a LG fan. I am an avid user of Galaxy Note 8 and Note 10 Plus for years, with LG G7 as secondary phone. But even so I hate my G7's UI hahha specially the weird gallery.
So for this V60 and Velvet, I believe I'm genuinely impressed and in an awe for their idea and execution of this dual-screen. 👍

Awesome review as always but what could you tell me the name of those ear buds 5:09 you have in this video?
That was a great review Juan. You've given me a lot to think about when I eventually have to replace my V30.
Good run for that V30! Such a pretty phone. Before phones got HUGE LOL.
@@SomeGadgetGuy That's so true. I can use it one handed, the battery is still going strong and I keep finding new features to use. I picked it up on the big sale in November after Thanksgiving back in 2017.
Run that baby into the ground! 😁
I went from the v30 to v60.. Great choice duel screen power user... His reviews are great and practical... V60 and velvet are going to be theist underrated phones of the year... I got a Bogo deal for v60 from tmobile making it $400! With dual screens!...what a steal!
You are literally the best reviewer! But I have to know...V60 or Velvet for longevity??

V60

This is a really solid review. Awesome video! 🙌🏼

Going to be selling these soon at work, thanks for the breakdown, definitely beneficial. I used your discussion on the v60 to explain to my employees the benefit of lg
Glad my videos could help! Its tough digging up more info on less popular manufacturers.

Wait, are you selling or buying?!
The tech world will "discover" dual screen phones when the Duo is released but still find ways to bash LG for doing the same thing with more flexibility.
Even the Duo will get panned for the specs. So frustrating. I'm not impressed with this idea that only a magical future foldable will be "worth it".
@@SomeGadgetGuy And now LG among others are looking into scrolling screen technology. The others will try to move the goal post should said technology hypothetically be more useful than foldable single screens.
Lg isn't the same manufacturer from a yr ago I'm loving the direction they're heading... Your evaluation of lg and unbias opinion is a breath of fresh air you hit this out the park with everything you said
😎👍
yeah, I have been leaning towards Sony since last year and especially this year's phones for my next phone upgrade but seeing how LG is improving, I might stick with LG
👐
These are the reviews that keep me coming. Great point at the end about us as the audience giving more time for more well thought out reviews
These types of reviews can use all the help they can get.
I would love a V60 vs Velvet camera comparison focused on value proposition. I see at T-Mobile that the V6 is going for $810 right now with the dual screen case. They have not announced their pricing for the Velvet yet, but it's looks like it'll probably be something like $700 with the dual screen case. Is the the extra $100 or so worth it?
The only actual reviews seem to come from you and Mr. Mobile. (though I think you still cover devices more completely than anyone else)
I'm glad you do what you do :)
Amazing video :)
Nice to see someone reviewing LG phones honestly!
The reason this phone doesn't get the love it deserves is because the logo attached to it. If the same phone was made by certain companies, it would be considered revolutionary and a game changer for the mid range market.
You KNOW it would.
Yep completely. I hear all this hype about the Microsoft Surface Duo.... I'm like ...But... LG already has something like this.... even better since it can become a single screen phone.
But non availability in hot markets like India is unforgivable...
LG is a forgotten hero
I remember when Motorola's Atrix came out with one of the first finger print unlock systems ever for smartphones...no one really cared that much, but literally years later when Apple announced their version of the concept, EVERYONE lost their minds and made out Apple to be some industry hero...LG faces the same unfair market responses and its all because consumers are just a bunch of sheep...I know this because I studied Business Marketing in college, it's the art of training consumers to want what you tell them.
My fav guy to listen to about everything LG
I've been doing a lot of phone research bc my v30 is starting to struggle (after 3 years of constant use and being dropped 40k times. Several it which were in the shower... That's a thing normal humans do) and I'm so, so glad I found your review. I've been baffled by a lot of the LG reviews I've seen - it seems like people would list off a bunch of silly complaints or, worse, list off a bunch of positives and then rate the phone poorly. The thing that almost had me pulling out my hair was reviewers who complained about LG attempts at innovation with the g8 gesture stuff AND complained that the company is stagnant and all the phones never change. It... Cant be both. They get that it can't be both, right? You can hate the innovation, but then you cant complain that they never innovate. Especially when you're also going to praise iPhones for doing the same thing for like 15 versions.
I've watched *DOZENS* of reviews and you were the first one I saw that even mentioned the v60 and velvet had wacom pen pressure sensitivity. Like... What? How is that not even getting an offhand, throw away comment from other reviewers? That's huge for a lot of people. That's like not bothering to mention that the iPad pro can be used with the apple pencil. Yeah, it's not everyone's use case, but come on! I shouldn't have to specifically search "phones for artists" in order to find out that little bit of info.
What I've learned is RUclips tech reviewers are kind of baffling. But also thank you!!! After hours and hours and hours of research, I totally know what phone I'm getting now and you've saved me hundreds of dollars and disappointment.
You can install v60 camera APK on velvet to get manual video
I think Galaxy a80 had dex support with limited windows
Dxomark didn't update v60 video stabilization
All pics were taken in first days of June
I watched quite a few reviews on the lg velvet before i bought it. And all of them were extremely critical of the camera and its cpu and display only being 60hz.
They were so out of touch with normal consumers, all they thought about was how this phone stacked up against the far less stylish and lower quality built chinese phones like the one plus and other instead of comparing it to the phones from other major manufacturers like apple and Samsung around the same price.
Because when you do that the lg velvet suddenly looks like the best deal around for a no compromise phone that wont break the bank.
The lg velvet has a really good battery at 4300mah, a more than good enough 1080p poled panel, a very good for any normal human being f1.8 12mp camera that offers excellent photos and videos for social media (all social media apps limit videos to 1080p so stfu about needing 4k and 8k), an unrivaled build with gorrila glass front and back with a polished metal frame, and one of the best audio experiences for a mobile device that isnt a dap or ipod.
The $500 Samsung a71 5g comprises heavily on the cpu with a exynos chip and heavily on materials with only a plastic back and gorrila glass 3 on the front. The iphone xr is a similar story. The velvet is just an all round great phone for a normal human for $600.
I want this kind of design along with flagship-grade camera array along with 90hz screen at 600-700$ from LG.
This is what a review should be about. Great job sir for a thorough review of this phone.
😎👍
The absence of the QUAD DAC moved me away from the Velvet.. good thing i still have my G8 for my high impedance earbuds...
Sell that shit to me
Same here
You can hardly notice a difference except for very high end headphones.
WHOA! this review..made me wanna subscribe,well done.now i think this is a phone i will get.
i dont even think this should be called review,something just above that,you didn't tear down the other companies,you brought them in the convo to compare or speak about thats it.i enjoyed the rather long video.i dont usually
5:33 did I hear “mega pickle sensor”? Lmao
Savory delicious mega pickles... MMMmmm...
JuanBagnell those are my favorite!
Yes you did 😂
Probably rather definitely the best review on this phone. Its a shame that lg dropped off after such good phones.
Yeah I think I should grab the velvet while it's available.
LG went out on a high note.
Hi juan, what´s the name of the app you are using for pro video recording on the velvet? i can't understand that part well
Serious question. I have a OnePlus 6T, previously had an LG V20 (a phone I loved but due to screen issues had to trade in for OP 6T). My 6T is in good condition, but almost 2 years old. I am in the market for a replacement, but Samsung current flagships don't interest me, aside from the Note 10 and Fold (outside my economic range). The only phones that kind of get my attention, because new phones are getting boring, are the OP 8 and the LG V60 with Dual Screen. I'm on T-Mobile. My main use is gaming, media consumption (mostly videos), work (Office365) and college (Office 365, books and classroom platforms).
What phone you guys recommend?
Listening to other options as well.
It really depends on what features you care about. The OP8 is a better phone, but the V60 is a better multimedia computer.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I mostly use my phone for multimedia and Office365 apps. My main concern is battery life, connection stability, storage capacity, and responsiveness. When I had the V20 I used split screen apps continuously, but with the OP 6T I don't use this feature.
@@ReyCorolla go for tge v60. It has expandable storage and dual screen which is fantastic. Also it has 5000 mah battery with 60 hz screen so it should last longer than the op 8.
@@ReyCorolla if you want an excellent battery life 10+ hours of SOT then V60 if you can settle for less then i think u can go for Oneplus 8 as i think is better then v60 other then battery
This is why I love your reviews, they're always well thought out, clear and concise. No other RUclips is doing reviews as well as you are in my honest opinion
Excellent video! Well said about the LG Velevet
Such an awesome feature packed phone.
@@SomeGadgetGuy Yes it is! I was thinking about picking one up. I just think of their marketing was better, maybe they wouldn't have closed LG Mobile.
I am loving my LG Velvet. Awesome review.
It's SUCH a pretty phone. LG really delivered somethign special IMO.
Shots fired! Lol! Great review as always brother! Thank you!
LOL pretty mild shots...
Why doesnt the Velvet have manual video controls?
And am I going to have to worry about losing all the great manual controls for both photo and video if my V35 & V40 get the android 10 velvet UI update?
Probably not. The V60 still has all the pro modes.
@@SomeGadgetGuy thank god. That's part of what keeps me in with LG.
I really enjoy shooting video more than photography. So when I started messing with manual controls for the first time with my first LG V35 device I about lost it.
I dont trust any lg review that not from this channel. It goes in depth for features that are slept on.
Your reviews are the reason im using a G7 capturing my images in raw and controlling the look myself.
So now that im shopping for an upgrade. Theres only one channel i turn to
Great reviews. Found you looking for info on the V60 to replace my G6. Now the Velvet is here. Will wait until Velvet hits Verizon and see what deals the two have.
This guy has a lot to say.... BUT ALL ON POINT! Reason why I'm a subscriber
😎👍
HI great video, I am wondering if you could help with the setting for the camera and for video I heard that the 765 has a hard time doing 4K, so the settings are important to me to get the best pictures and video, keep up the good work.
Fantastic review. I'm always recommending Samsung phones, especially their A51 and A71, but i think LG has a winner here.
It's really exciting IMO. The A51 and A71 are SOLID options, so seeing an LG give them a fight there is REALLY encouraging.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I am losing my infatuation with Samsung. The only thing inventive they are doing cost 2K. Not ready to spend 2K yet.
I've been lukewarm on Samsung, especially making "statement" phones like the folds, but I have to give the A series a lot of credit. Samsung used to make some of the worst "poor person" lite phones, and now A51 and A71 are MUCH better options.
I was going to go from my V35 to the V60, but I think you just convinced me to go with the Velvet instead. honestly aside from the whole DAC removal, the only thing I really have as gripes with this phone is how curved it's display is and there's no more unlocked LG's
Yeah. 5G is a pivot year for sure. It makes sense why LG would only do carrier partnerships, but it's definitely a bummer.
Thank you for the review. Yesterday (the day before this video was aired) I just bought a V50 from eBay to use on T-Mobile. Got an unlocked Sprint one instead of Korean version with rather unrefined dual screen. I'm using the old faithful V20 on its 3rd battery, really digging the headphone jack and wide angle selfie that ends on V50.
After seeing your review, i might return the V50 for Velvet for its perfect blend of design, functionality, price and matured dual screen. Sad to let go of wide-angle selfie, though. That was often the only phone to capture everyone in family events with arms reach!
Your reviews always have wonderful content, and the script is fantastic with good humor with no redundant words. Thank you for the great work!
I don't know if you care about 5G but that sprint V50 is being pulled. It won't support T-Mo 5G. Should work fine as an LTE device for a while tho.
Thank you for the reminder about (no) 5G on Sprint V50. That's another reason to go with Velvet instead.
Another thing I enjoyed on V20 is to manually tune sound levels when recording loud concerts. Is that the part of quad dac that exists on Vs only? Being a new dad now I'll have to part my band days for awhile so that's probably no longer a bid deal for next 4 years. Thank you Juan.
Velvet has the HD Audio recorder app still, but I think the noise reduction is too heavy, especially compared to the V20.
Me make algorithm happy and post comment. My comment is this.... I've had this phone for 10 days now and the day I was allowed to install a SIM this became my one of my daily drivers!
Hi, thanks for a great review. Could you please also tell (with an answer here in the comments or in a video) how the Velvet performs when the Dual Screen phone is used in a "mini laptop-mode" with the one part placed on a table and the other part used in an angel as a screen like a laptop? How is writing in this mode, when the base part/screen is used as a keyboard? How does the screen work as a keyboard? And how does the apps function with the two displays in this mode, when used in writing? Thanks for answer, for this matter is barely mentioned in the various reviews.
you made me want an LG V40 ThinQ. Now it's time to upgrade. Looking for the next best phone. Keep up the good work bro.
Love your reviews man this is the guy you surprised on Reddit when I shouted your channel out on the LG v60 subreddit !!! Your one of only like two others I trust
Hey! Thanks for dropping by! My wife and I just made some SICK vegan brownies. Like INSANELY good.
@@SomeGadgetGuy hey !! Nice no problem thanks for covering These phones man they deserve love !! And nice vegan brownies are amazing enjoy

I love this Juan! You just created a diss track review video!!! 😂😂😂
My reviews tend to lean this way. I feel it's worth calling out a few concerning trends in tech reviewing.
Juan, you kill me with your radio voice (in a good way). Anyway, stumbled upon an old PocketNow video with you. Didn't even know worked there. It was an LG phone review of course (LG G6). Love your channel.
Awww deep cut. Some fun videos to work on during that PN run.
I really enjoy the depth of your reviews, keep em coming, stay fair, stay safe.
My god, 9:35 is a straight dig at a lot mainstream so called reviewers, actually advertisers to be precise. Just love your work man. If possible have a collab with Techspurt.
Techspurt seems like a GOOD dude.
Like always, another fantastic review, well done
👍
Awesome review...this phone looks great. I'm so glad this price range is becoming competitive in the US.
Definitely. Nice to see some mainstream 5G options.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I believe it's coming to TMobile so I might pick one up and try it out using my jump on demand line
It should be. I know AT&T got it first, but it shouldn't be a long exclusivity.
Thank you so much for not jumping on iPhone and Samsung bandwagon like Most phone reviewers lg made excellent phones. Most people don't need phones to be as powerful or more powerful than a laptop there has been too much hype behind the latest computer power.. And thank you for making a honest review of lg phones I will miss their phones in the mobile market.. At the end of the day there own advertising techniques killed a good phone manufacturer.. Good bye lg u will be missed 😥
you're the one, the obi juan
great review
😁
I just wish lg retained the quad dac feature on the velvet, even the old lg q7 has it.
Btw juan, does ur v50 gestures still keeps restarting to buttons only when changing to scheduled night mode even after the recent software update?
Oh I don't schedule night mode. I should give it a try. I just prefer dark themes AND it bugged me when the nav would swap LOL.
As a LG enthusiast, I really wish I can defend LG like you do 😩
Just remember, it's not about defending one "team". It's about promoting good competition.
JuanBagnell 100% 🔥🔥🔥
@@SomeGadgetGuy man in such a long review u did not mentioned how is battery life SOT??
Just got the velvet with the dual screen and I must say, it's absolutely gorgeous. I only have one worry, that's the dual screen's hinges. Have you had any wear on the hinges through the months? Any suggestions to keep it from becoming loose? Should I get a spare dual screen if I am able to find one at a decent price?
Other than that, it looks like a solid device. Definitely happy with my purchase.
You changed my mind on this phone! I read so much bad things on it coming from some "reviewers"! I was impressed by all the things this can do!
Literally my first ever comment on a youtube video (and my first ever like as well!). Seriously man, I watch all the 'big' reviewers and you are one of, if not the best I've watched. How you're not pulling in more people I've no idea. Regardless, keep it up man, every video of yours I've watched (and it's a lot!) has been fantastic. Cheers!
Juan and Micheal fisher from Mr mobile are still the best reviewers of this era.
Bought the phone 375$ new and I'm loving it. Downloaded SwiftKey, and gcam mod and I'm almost set
I swear this is the only review I've seen for this phone that keeps the target audience in mind for every feature. Earned my subscribe.
Awesome informational review on the Velvet. I'm liking LG phones more and more. The design of this phone looking great. Thanks for sharing the details and 👍 up Juan
😊👍
After watching videos on this channel. I ger sick of videos on other channels since they do not review lg phones properly
The game is a lot less fun when there's an obvious slant on what gets good reviews and what gets trashed.
You are the only reviewer who ever gives and honest review on LG phones ..anytime LG releases a new phone I don't even bother with anyone else but your videos
Aw I appreciate that. A few of us out there though. My buddy TK. I think Flossy stays really consistent. It's worth sampling around.
But you should still stick with me 😁👍
I have an LG G8 ThinQ... I really love the Velvet 's look and big screen. Would you switch to the Velvet coming from the G8ThinQ?
Don't ever do that mistake ! (from a G8 user)
@@t.b1z918 did you try both devices?
@@marmz3310 nope but everything is better in the G8 on the Specs sheet and from the test I saw... The G8, V40 & V50 are actually the most complete phones from LG, from screen to processor... (This stands only if you're not into the dual-screens thing)
Very informative video, thanks again Juan!
Glad you enjoyed 👍
I do love LGs dual screen cases but some usage nitpicks are annoying. One issue with the magnetic charger is using Android Auto. The size of the phone in the case restricts where you can store it stably while driving. If it moves around the cable can easily detach and interrupt the connection, forcing a restart of the Auto app. Which can distract from driving. It might be a bit more obscure, but another point against the magnetic charger is both the adapter and the case port filling up with ferrous material. I work in a machine shop and get much more exposure to this problem than most but I have to clean both of them out on a regular basis to get a connection.
Hey Juan what do you think about the Dxomark score of LG V60.
LOL.
Great review Juan! I'll never stop supporting you!

@Juan Can we open four apps at once. That is, two apps on one screen and two on the other?
For me, Juan's review is a breath of fresh air in support of the many unbiased reasons why I made my choice to go with the LG Velvet.
I put in a lot of research into my choice for my next phone, and I carefully studied many, many, many video reviews to weed out unreasonable and biased information. I wanted somewhat high-end at reasonable cost... and I eventually chose the LG Velvet, a mid-level phone.
At a Verizon special price of $140 for the phone and an LG price of $180 for the Dual Screen... I feel I have been fortunate and found excellent value in a solid package that meets my current needs.
To complete, I just need an Active Pen... suggestions?
A great & comforting review, Juan!
I use the Wacom, but if you can find the older Lenovo active pen, often as a refurb with a dead battery, those are usually pretty cheap.
The Blackberry Passport was my previous phone, a great phone but a lot of apps do not work anymore, so i was looking for a replacement. Then i came across your channel and you convinced me to buy the LG Velved and i did. Just waiting for the dualscreen case. LG is rather slow with sending this to me. But so far i am happy with the purchase. It can be a great replacement for the Blackberry. When you have the time: i'm interested in how to set up the desktop function and use it as a laptop replacement. Which office apps are useful like Outlook or Word and Excel. Looking forward to your next review.
You just plug the phone into a dock like the nexdock, or an HDMI adapter into a monitor. The phone should do the rest
@@SomeGadgetGuy I'm going to try that, Thank you for the quick response. :-)
Absolute superb review, will be my next phone. The duel screen is the mutts nuts..
It's a FUN accessory for sure.
I've seen people compare the Velvet to the V60, but I'd like to have your opinion on the LG Velvet vs LG G8X. They're kind of similar and I'm contemplating which to get. Always appreciate your in-depth reviews.
G8X is a better phone, more powerful, but the Velvet is a more refined dual screen device and has the 5G. It all kinda depends on what you want/need more.
LG software has improved, unless you live in south america and own a LG g8s. C'mon LG, at least give me some security parches!!
Great video, Juan!
Yup. LG's next challenge is to tackle these regional software and distribution issues.
You can do crossflash if you want to
Hi. Brand new subscriber. Love your review! Question: Did the dual screen come with the phone or was this a bonus or separate accessory? Totally new to LG and looking for new user for smart phones period. Lol. What stylus do you use.
Carriers bundled it with the V60, but it was sold separately with the Velvet. It's not REALLY a part of the phone, so it messed up warranty issues for folks with the V60. People would get mad if it wasn't covered under phone insurance.
@@SomeGadgetGuy thanks for the warning about the warranty mess up.
I don't know much about phones... but is the dual-screen like a case? Do you buy the LG Velvet and it attaches to the dual-screen as a phone case would? Also, if that is the procedure do you have to buy them separately, or is there a bundle deal. Again, sorry for the stupid question. This is my first time ever looking into a dual-screen phone.
It is a case. HOW you buy the case will likely come down to what carrier you use. Often it get bundled as an accessory, but depending on how you buy it, it might be separate.
Have you thought about a comparison between the Velvet and the V60? That would be interesting. Also ive seen that the T-Mobile version is different that as it has the MediaTek Dimensity 1000C processor. How is that different that the Snapdragon 765 5G? Your the man when it come to these types of reviews. Thanks for the time you put into the audio and video reviews on all those phones.
Sounds like a super interesting option. Unfotunately, I found already the G8S was too large to handle for me. And the Velvet is even bigger. Hoping that LG will come back with a more handy option like a Velvet mini in about the size of the former G-Series.
It's rough with these 5G devices. Phones getting BIG.
This is a bomb review! Hehe 😉👍
Juan, what do you think of T-Mobile using the mediatek dimensity 1000c processor in their LG Velvet phones? Plus T-Mobile is offering it for half the price if I trade-in my lg g7. Good upgrade?
This was incredible! So rigorous, keep up the great work
I almost want to get Velvet for myself now :D Great review!
This vs the A71 5G vs a discounted LG V60 is the fight of the year.
Considering the Canadian version launched with a $200 Visa gift card and BT earbuds, I'm curious to see what kind of carrier deals we might see for the Velvet here.
@@SomeGadgetGuy would love to see a BOGO for the Velvet like T mo had for the v60
"But I digress." Hilarious! You go, Juan. I have to patreonize you.
Funny lol
😊👍
I love the way u go hard for lg cause people really be trying to do them in and I've owned a few of them last one being the v30 and before that was a g4 and although I had the loop issue I wasn't giving up so I found a way around it and never had another issue besides that I'm waiting on my velvet now coming from iPhone 11 and I cant wait to get it
ive been taking a look at LG Devices for a long time now, theres very limited options in Malaysia for LG devices, as in, theyre not widely available here, just in the secondhand market. for about RM900 (250$), do you think the LG G8 is a worthy buy?
Go with v40
You can modify it to get 4Ah battery from v50
Is the dual screen case carrier-specific? Verizon doesn't offer dual screen option. Only at&t has it, and LG sites offers "Dual screen case for AT&T". Thanks!
I THINK a dual screen case SHOULD work on any velvet? I haven't tried mixing and matching them.
So im assuming lg velvet has better audio quality right now available in the market, did lg velvet also support hires audio? Since in gsmarena doesn't include in specs description
I did a full audio review on the Velvet on the Patreon.
Thank-you for doing this. Seriously. I've been looking for a good phone to buy and your reviews have helped me the most. I've been laughing for the last few days because I watched a few popular creators who reviewed the V60 wondering why it's not selling more. Then I watched their initial review and they complained about every feature that made it stand out/practical/versatile. Like 3 guys straight did this.
Literally can't make this up.
It's not fun when the game is THAT obvious.
Hey Juan, what active stylus are you using in your reviews to interact with the devices?
In most videos I use a fine point capacitive Wacom which has been discontinued. I'm using the Wacom bamboo with the Velvet and V60.
Interesting they're not doing an unlocked model in the US. I guess not a huge loss considering the software support lagged behind the carrier models.
I currently have the LG G7 Thinq. how would you compare the two? I use it mostly for photos, video and music. By the way, great review in general.
I already have LG v30 in India and I am planning to upgrade to LG velvet- snapdragon 845 4g version only for the bigger screen, looks and slightly better processor. Will this be a improved camera upgrade or worse downgrade. Please suggest.
Should be a little better for auto modes, won't be as good for manual modes.
@@SomeGadgetGuy thank you sir for your prompt response. I have thoroughly enjoyed your honest and meaningful reviews on all the LG phones till date. I have been using only LG phones since 2010 and I always felt that they offer great value and the best part is their infrequent OS updates don't mess with the longevity of the phone unlike other so called big brands. Most don't notice this fact. Anyways me and my friends in India will miss your reviews on LG phones in future. Take care ❤️
You don't have to convince me. I'm a new LG family member this year (V60 Dual Screen) and I love my phone. I almost made the mistake of overpaying for a Samsung phone that have more features that I don't actually need and probably will never use. But, I will definitely use a lot of features on this phone. BTW this video was definitely a rant against other shady reviewers. I support you.
Congrats on the new phone!
