LG V60 ThinQ Review: It's Big.

LG V60 Review! LG's next big thing is REALLY big. I've used terms like "monster" before, but the V60 is a beast. With a handful of small compromises, this phone is shaping up to be the top option for productivity and multi-asking, while offering amazing features for content creation and gaming. Very few phones can really do it all. The V60 is on that list.

[@ekinteko]

@@SomeGadgetGuy 23:50 America' Ass rights there ; ) PS: Your argument about not getting a flagship phone sounds logical, but it disregards the fact that it is the flagships that get consistently more software updates, sooner updates, and for longer periods. I can see your reasoning would make more sense for iPhones, though there aren't any midrange iPhones, unless you resort to getting a new, or used, one that is 1-2 years older. Ie in 2020 skipping the iPhone 11 Pro, and buying an iPhone X or iPhone XS instead.

[@juwon1234]

@@ekinteko I will like to disagree with your arguments. update all boils down to the manufacturers. Yes it true that more of the non flagship /mid-range / low end might not but this can be said also for flagships as well.Example Nokia don't really do flagship phones but majority of their phones get an update so is the Motorola. The update really depends on the manufacturers and how well the phone sold or not.

This is such a great phone and I really want to buy the V60. It's probably too much phone for me but that headphone Jack is such a great underused feature in smartphones.

It really is an epic feature to hold on to. Especially for gaming.

[@mistamaog]

So far to me it's the most underrated flagship, and I haven't even owned an LG phone until this one.

[@popantermopan4099]

Even if the headphone jack is dead on most other phones that doesn't mean wired audio is also dead. You can still use usb c headphones or just simply use an adapter.

[@mistamaog]

@@popantermopan4099 Problem is that's another item to carry that can get lost easily, plus you'll wear out the USB C port easily. Believe me it happened to me from normal use, okay maybe heavy use, but imagine how it quickly it would wear out if from both charging and using it for headphones.

[@popantermopan4099]

@@mistamaog of course, I never said that there aren't any trade offs that you would have to make if your phone doesn't have a headphone jack, but I don't think not having a headphone jack should be a deal breaker for most folks.

[@startedtech]

@@SomeGadgetGuy first fell in love with the design of the V-series with the V10 and V20 with how unique they were. While I do miss the more rugged design of those, the V60 is the absolute best phone ever for multi-tasking and just packed feature-wise. I love the phone all around, but damn like you said it is BIG and it is HEAVY particularly with the dual screen case on. Was a bit surprised when I took it out of the box 😂

[@michaelengelby732]

I love the fact this phone has an FM radio as well. Most "average" consumers will use a streaming FM radio app. For those times when you have poor signal or are in an emergency situation (natural disaster) the FM radio and headphone wire as an antenna can be a life saver. Often overlooked but crucial point for those who are survivalists.

[@bucknaykid5821]

As a KZbin creator myself I had been putting off buying a new phone in 2020. After a ton of careful considerations I have ordered a V60. It has some really great features and compromises just enough to give me the most bang for the buck. (excuse the pun) Thank you for the reviews on it as you really made me do a ton of research before I made my decision to purchase.

Great review. One of the most thorough I have seen for any device in a long time. I recently purchased my V60 a few days ago, and I was coming over from a Note 10+ that I had been using for a couple of months after I gave my wife my iPhone 11 Pro Max. I really, really love this V60. There are a couple of annoyances, but the overall package is amazing, and I still have yet to try out the dual-screen since I had to redeem that separately. I love the headphone jack, the screen is great. I find the fingerprint sensor quicker than the one on the Note 10+, and the camera has been great. There was a slight learning curve to get accustomed to everything, but once I did it's been smooth sailing. Now I want to get a Wacom pen, and I will be good. Thanks for the great video.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Congrats on the new phone!

[@Jose_Ole_Posole]

Been rockin' my DUAL SCREEN V60 since launch and i love it!! ONLY GRIPE IS FINGERPRINT SCANNER IN THE FRONT NOW. Other then that im happy with it. Its amazing how a lot of people have no idea this phone exist. If never been ask the "WHAT KINDA PHONE IS THAT!?" question more then with this phone. And when i pull out the 2 screens people really do get amazed! Like, OH SHIT! 2 SCREENS!?!? and then i hit them with the price and they get even more intrigued. I said the price in front of a coworker flexing his S20 Ultra and he seemed embarrassed for paying $1400 and decided to stick the phone back in his pocket hahahaha To each his own, He prefers Samsung and i prefer LG with good o' 3.5mm jack and a cheaper price.

Just found this channel, the KZbin algorithm really seems to be doing you no favors. Searched "LG V60" and similar trying to find a good review on this phone as I took the plunge and ordered myself one. Watched several half ass videos before discovering this one, which was nowhere to be found in my search results. "LG seems to be the only one who still has me in mind," that is the exact reason I chose this phone. I'm huge into audio, and I too am really sick of hearing this stupid "well just use bluetooth BRO" excuse. Seeing the headphone jack in a 2020 model phone is refreshing, the quad DAC is a nice bonus too. Also can I just say, this video was really well organized and you explained everything really well in a detailed yet not extremely boring way. You have a really entertaining "radio" voice, you kind of remind me of Bitwit in that regard. Definitely subscribing and watching more of your content in the future.

I am afraid you'll have to go with budget devices. Just saying from the top of my head, I can't think of any "good" phone to have a capacitive fingerprint sensor. Though looking into a mid-range device with an LCD display is one of the best sure fire ways to get the physical fingerprint sensors since you can't have an in display sensor with an LCD display.

I hope that you and yours are well God bless! The LG V60 i think is a fantastic phone and a powerhouse for content creation. Ive been using the Note 8 as my main device for all things creative for two years and have always used a note device. I have been saying for years i wish someone else would make a comparable screen similar to the note series and the fact that LG has done this with the v60 has made that the main feature i care about along with desktop computer mode.

I am a HUGE LG fan and have been since the Optimus Black and of course by beloved Nexus 5 that I still own. LG desperately needs to market harder. Quality versus price point can't be touched from launch to cyclic price drops.

I had worries about the screen going from the V20 1440p . But the V60 with the audio and OLED actually looks better by a respectable amount. The V60 is a youtube consumers dream phone. Long battery life , stereo speakers , and amazing quad dac using headphones and a pretty amoled screen and it's cheap. Get one now and when you crack your screen in 2 years you can buy a refurb phone for $100-200

Sound quality from the headphone jack is phenomenal the best and it's compatible with a stylus like the note series. This screen is as clear and sharp as my previous phone the Galaxy S9 which has wqhd+ pixel density. The colors are just outright better on the LG phone as well and I'm really surprised because I thought the Galaxy S9 screen was almost unbeatable.

Higher resolution screen, great camera that is flush with the device, and performance is pretty much identical to what they have this year. I do miss using third-party launchers though, still waiting for gestures to be supported by Android update.

I like learning about my LG V60 thinQ 5G from the best. 👍🏽

[@justingarcia7863]

I laugh a little with the fact that the title says "It's BIG" and has a thumbnail of the butt 🤣 sorry but like always good reviews!

[@TiTiHenry64]

Your videos helped me decide on my new phone. Just got this phone yesterday.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Congrats on the new phone!

[@GhostShipInc]

Such a wonderful guy. Love the way he articulates his opinions.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

😊👍

[@VTheGuerrilla]

Love mine. Selling my S20 Ultra because of it.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Two HUGE phones to fight there 😄

[@popo-sq4ij]

V60 is all around better with a better price I love mine

[@osoifamf]

That’s a downgrade

[@osoifamf]

Minty same thing I said ... definitely a downgrade

[@RaginYak]

@@osoifamf Buzz off..... Samsung fanboys are no less than Apple. Geez.... Stop telling people what to do, idiot. Everyone has their own preferences.

[@salsaspartan7]

Best phone i ever had. Going back to it today actually.

[@dennisschultz1175]

One of the best phone reviews I have ever watched. Great job.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

These reviews always need more help sharing...

[@kentatakao6863]

"that dual screen case is too bulky" *goes out and buys an otterbox case*

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

LOL right!

[@Eysc]

Juan, do you have an LG manual camera tutorial or where can I find one Thanks and great complete review

[@SamaritanElad]

WoW. Now that was a Great Review. But going to wait for the unlocked version to come out!

[@kezman1434]

Do you know when that is? And also do you know if this phone will sell in the UK?

[@Eivind.A]

First, good review 👍 So, "Nidarosdomens jentekor", "Blågutten", "TrondheimSolistene" Christian Grøvlen.... Do you listen to classic music performed by Norwegian artists?🤔 Cheers from Norway 🤘

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

😁 I have a limited DSD music collection. And funnily it is mostly Norwegian...

[@HelamanGile]

One way to check the power on LG's phones is personally I download the PowerDirector file for a project and I copy it into every phone it makes it so you can do repetitive tests with accurate results Also remember the phones have to have the same apps and have been newly resetted fully

[@HelamanGile]

@@SomeGadgetGuy I use a geek bench to but I feel the older phone slows down after a while so you have to have two brand new phones to be able to compare them

[@CriticalTechReviews]

The lower screen resolution kills it for me before anything else can. Nope.

[@cliffreynolds5747]

The Last Starfighter shirt and downloading Aliens, very nice! Loved the review as well. I bought a G8 based on your reviews and couldn't be happier.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Gotta tell ya, using the v60, miss the g8 form factor.

[@harysviewty]

@@SomeGadgetGuy g9 = 21:9 with similar width like g6 g7 g8

[@punkbutler88]

i just bought this for 400 on Amazon. My LG V40's battery was dying quick. It was a display unit from somewhere i got off ebay a few years ago. Loved LG since the G3

[@mendoza9007]

I had the LG G6 and the LG V40 before I got the S10+. However I REALLY want to go back to LG. Plus I love the white color. Awesome review.

[@charlespatrick3101]

Always my favorite reviewer for all LG devices! I've owned LG's since the LG G3, and also a few Sony Xperia's. Anyway, as far as a game recommendation, may I suggest Oddworld: Strangers Wrath. I first played it on my LG G Flex 2 and it played very well, despite the infamous SD 810. Granted, the phone did get very hot, but it didn't sacrifice gameplay, just battery life. The game has 3rd and 1st person gameplay as well as acquiring and switching between different weapons. I'm on ATT, and I've been thinking about getting this, but I wanted the white one, so the fact that you suggested the blue one makes me feel a bit more comfortable. Lol. Good review, and keep up the good work!

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

The oddworld games are so fun...

[@charlespatrick3101]

@@SomeGadgetGuy yes, they are! I had the very first one for the OG PlayStation. I got addicted to them after that.

[@GuitarRogRogerSaltel]

Bought a LG G8xthinQ, LOVE it, I've owned iPhones and Samsung but this LG is the best especially for the money, and I don't find it too big considering it closes into its own built in case

[@DOMg00g]

Great point about most people not needing flagship chipsets. Moreover, many midrange phones have more lifestyle features that flagships remove (headphone jack, micro sd slot, bigger battery). I couldn't ever justify spending close to a thousand dollars on a phone when I don't do any heavy computing tasks. That being said, I've always had flagship phones, due to carriers giving stellar deals, that brings the prices down to lower than midrangers.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Getting frustrating though how incomplete the flagship experience is becoming.

[@DOMg00g]

@@SomeGadgetGuy Truly. I'm likely upgrading to an S21, and I'm quite sad about it. Losing my headphone jack is going to hurt. I'd much rather have a V60, but there are no trade in deals or bogo's for it.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

It's a bummer. Continuing to give SamApple money just reinforces that these are the correct business moves. We keep paying them to take stuff away.

[@DOMg00g]

@@SomeGadgetGuy I know, I know. It's crazy. I'd like to vote with my wallet, buuut when carriers don't give LG deals, I'm forced into it.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

I get it. It's a business model which guarantees you'll have fewer and fewer options in the long term.

[@XanarchistBlogspot]

Main gripe would be dropping the 10 bit per channel video on the V30. We have reached an era where sometimes an older phone will have better features. Headphone jacks, cough, cough.

[@jkratoville]

Made the leap from the V20 (that beauty was still performing like day 1), but I was ready. Loving the V60 - but, I really miss the wide angle front-facing selfie shooter. I used that more as a "point-n-shoot" option with family and friends. Although a better lens and sensor, only being able to squeeze myself in there seems somewhat narcissistic!

[@brianabare7515]

A G8 with 5g would make me very happy, the rear fingerprint sensor is the best

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Sigh... A boy can dream...

[@TarekMidani]

It's alright... Just no reason to trade my trusty *Zenfone 6* for this. It would feel like a downgrade. Both share exactly what I'm looking for: 1080p and 5000mAh

[@brahilmrag5834]

But Bro Battery life in V60 is so Much Better ,also Bro ,LG V60 Camera and Audio Quality is the best Ever especially in Manual Mode ,it's for Professional Content Creators , Also u will get the Best Muti-Tasking and Muti_Media Experience with a Huge Dual Screen, u just have to Throw ur Zenphone6 In the Garbage Bro

[@raymondnewbill5294]

Battery life has A LOT more going on than just mAh man....

[@MatMediaTV]

More tech reviewers should make videos like yours... Not focusing on how our grandma will use her phone but how we, the people watching your video, actual tech nerds that know way more than that will.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Sadly a lot of "tech nerds" also dont do much with their phones...

[@brahilmrag5834]

The Camera of LG V60 is really more Professional and higher Quality than any other Smartphone

[@Ivandre423]

I like this guy! A phone is so much more than the number of megapixels the camera have. I bought me a LG Thinq tv and im happy, and i lm currently using an LG G7 Thinq. Surely would love the V60 seeing that LG is discontinuing the G series

[@bluespy377]

Thicc

[@AngkolJo]

i agree most of Juan's arguments. hope LG would pull this one to consumers liking. sadly, I dont see any LG phones in the store shelves anymore here in the Philippines. maybe private retailers.

[@yeezus_bitchess432]

I have been watching your videos from the days of lumia 1520 , you are very underrated .. love u man

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Sigh... Really miss those windows phones...

[@lukthere2]

Well.. coming from reviewers like MKBHD to this, holy shit man. Thats some in-depth review content right there. Thanks for this, very usefull -now we just have to hope this thing comes to our country

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Yeah, LG distribution is going to be a weak spot for this phone.

[@bshah4831]

I like quality audio and business productivity so the V60 is my next device. Thanks for the comprehensive reviews.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

🙂👍

[@axel9654]

I love your style. I bought a V50 for half price to replace my V30. Nobody talks better about this topic than you

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Some ridiculous deals on LG phones. Always silly to compare LG on retail price.

[@mcdoucherson]

Awesome review, subscribed, liked, and just ordered the phone. Gave me exactly what I wanted to know to pull the trigger. Thanks man!

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Happy to help 🙂
