2016's Worst Android Flagship (Was Actually Pretty Good)

The LG G5 was a big disappointment for anyone who expected either a compelling competitor to the Samsung Galaxy S7, or a shining beacon for the future of modular smartphones. But on the eve of the launch of its replacement, the LG G6, a look back at the G5 reveals a phone that wasn't nearly as bad as its reputation might lead you to believe – particularly when it comes to the camera. Join MrMobile for the LG G5 review re-do, and stay tuned for coverage on the LG G6 and all the smartphones coming out of Barcelona at Mobile World Congress 2017!

[ABOUT THE LG G5 REVIEW RE-DO]

MrMobile's LG G5 Review Re-Do was produced following 8 months intermittent use of an LG G5 review device provided by LG and an LG G5 retail unit purchased from Best Buy, both on T-Mobile US in Greater Boston. The device was paired with a Moto 360v2 and received several software updates during the test period.
