LG always gets $h!t on, they're highly underrated. Glad your channel gives them a fair shot. 👍

[Ejohns]

You're the only phone reviewer that shows LG any love at all.

[wadeepperson]

im liking these mid range phones with high end features. i dont feel like i ever have to spend 1000 bucks on a phone again.

[TCHGY]

The LG Velvet does not have a QUAD DAC, but it uses 3D sound tech, which from what I heard, produces really nice sound!

[youssefb]

I got the phone cause I liked the look and it feels nice to use idk

[reesespuffcereal]

The LG Velvet actually doesn't have a quad DAC even though there's a headphone jack.

[davidrice]

LG is underrated. That quad DAC is the most OVERrated feature ever. It only works if you plug in high end wired headphones. Does it work in the car when I plug in for Android Auto? NO! Does it work in my car if I use bluetooth? NO! Does the Quad DAC work with bluetooth headphones or speakers? NO. Do most people even know what DAC stands for? NO!

Watching this on my v50 and was wondering why its so blur and realised that the mic was so sharp lol

[paulpeters]

I have one without the case and i love it. Before that I had the stylo 4 and 3 and i loved both those phones as well. It has been a long time since i had a Samsung now and although they are good phones i don't really miss them.

[Eivind.A]

Short said, this was a good, down to earth review.
Thumbs Up 👍

[DrewP]

I would definitely buy LG before Samsung. Samsung is ok, but in my opinion overrated and over priced.

[stevea]

I’m happy with my LG 60 dual screen I upgraded from note 10 plus to Lg V60 dual screen and I’m glad I did

[__dudewitagun__]

high refresh and pixel count has diminishing returns on such a small screen. it also drains battery. The only times I would notice it is when scrolling really fast and in games that aren't locked at 60. I heard many ppl lower Res and refresh rate just to conserve battery...so why bother? if u want high refresh just buy a fancy TV or get into PC gaming

[anthonyragland]

I think they should bring back the quad deck on the velvet

[thetsoehtike]

I am watching this on my lg velvet. Its a great phone.

[kirkhutchins]

Sure going to miss the G series LG phones. I still use my underrated G7 ThinQ which I got for $450 brand new a month after release. With how flagship phones are costing so much I doubt I'll ever get a new one. Never cared much for the V series since its so much bigger than my G7. My phone is starting to slow and the battery needs recharging 2-3 times a day. Been looking at the Velvet, but im on Verizon and the 2nd screen isn't even available. I'll really miss the DAC since I spend so, much time with my head phones on. I've looked at the Samsung Galaxy A51 5G UW and A71 5G UW but just don't want to go back to the Samsung UI and without a Dust/waterproof rating it's just not even worth it. If it had a DAC and dual screen i'd be all over the Velvet at the price it is now on Verizon @ $20/month!

[nancyvernon]

But no stylus like the V60? true bummer. Or am I

[danzeigler]

Is it safe to call the Velvet the V65? What do you think the likelihood this was the original name for this phone and the only reason that it got an actual name is because a marketing guy whined really REALLY loudly.

[warzoneidiot]

The velvet is def a step forward with their implementation of the dual screen. Its a good compromise from the lgv60. I have lgv60 and dont plan on getting any other phone for quite some time so I'm hoping LG will produce more dual screen cases

[TheNiteNinja]

That exterior second screen implemention with this case makes it unique, and I like it, reminds me of being able to see the time with the V10 and V20 without needing an always on main screen. However the notch... Ugh.
That silver is sexy though, won't lie.
