I was looking forward to this review. It is as I thought it would be. The iPhone has what seems to be better video capabilities and audio...and for what I am looking to do with making 4K videos for KZbin, etc that sounds like the way BUT, and that is a big BUT, because in the end price trumps (budget) although locally my T-Mobile store told me LG raised the price to $750 for the G8. Sort of miffed about that but perhaps that means He has another phone/set up He wants me looking at. Patience was something I stopped praying for after my son became a teen and try to go with the flow. The G8 in that T-Mobile red though sure is beautiful - and add that one case you displayed in one of your videos and the two together were very much gorgeous. Hope it is sooner than later as the K10 has started to give a black screen from time to time. Another spot on video. I appreciate you taking the time to make these. Thank you.

I got a black LG G8 thinq coming from a "leather" LG G4, the G8 is extremely slippery, damn phone slides off all surfaces, I was forced to buy a case for it (spigen) which I've never reduced myself to do in the past 22 years of owning cell phones. Because I am using a case my pinky finger has become tender as the cutout of the usb c port is very uncomfortable (240lbs powerlifter with major blisters so no I am not soft). G8s screen is very narrow, making using apps like Instagram show smaller pictures and videos (compared to the G4) which definitely annoying. The camera is nothing special as pictures look very pixelated when you zoom in (in the gallery or on digital zoom while taking pics). Lg g8 also got rid of the notification light on the front facing camera which was extremely convenient as I could see what app I have messages in by the colour of the led but now I get a 3 second screen flash which is useless if I am away from my phone for 5 seconds.

@@dr.donnawalter4380 I watched all of his LG g8 videos before I got mine which is why I was convinced to get it. I didn't get a chance to try/hold the phone before I bought it from my carrier Rogers here in Canada as the display model (fake phone) was stolen from the rival store I went to to check out what was available. I don't know if his red one is less slippery than the black model but the phone is like holding a wet bar of soap lol. Coming from the curved "leather" LG G4 to a flat glass G8 was a big shock but I've held other glass back phones and the G8 is definitely extremely slippery. I've only dropped my past phones of 22 years roughly a total of 6 (six) times as I am extremely careful and this is the first completely flat phone so less buttons/camera to grab onto. The spigen case is not bulky and other than the usb c opening, I like it and recommend it... My sights were set on the Huawei p30 pro which would have been more expensive but it's awful PPI and fear of further USA/google punishment scared me off as my G4 was stuck on Android 6.0 which was frustrating as people with newer phones would use emojis I couldn't see but instead would see a box with an x through it. The lacking notification light settings is frustrating as I have to check the phone physically more often ( I refuse to use the always on display as I have bad fears of the battery being like the crappy G4 battery), but I am sure there will be an update in Android 10 or an app that will make use of the giant notch.

@Kenneth Singer - I am going to say most likely not as I have used LG for several years now - most likely started using them after the bootlooping issue - and never had that sort of a problem. The LG I am currently using was one of their budget phones that was more of an emergency purchase than how I usually research and even it has been great until this year - no bootloop but just very small ROM/RAM, etc and time to move to another phone. Hope that helps from someone else who has used LG. This 8, and the 7 also, seem to be spot on as far as phones go, not to mention the red is gorgeous.
