Manufacturers are finally learning that we don't want to spend $1500 on a smartphone.

I've been getting LG phone since the G4, no problems at all. People have to remember that at the end of the day, it's a phone damnit. I don't expect it to perform like a computer, high end camera or television...I need it to be not bulky, decent battery life, takes good pics and videos, decent price and work.... We keep putting too many requirements for "great phones" when it's main purpose involve making calls and basic level of storing information.... I'll wait for more reviews

I bought one. This phone is a monster. The 5G is crazy fast.

This phone looks beautiful, I love the water droplet style camera placing.

My Velvet arrived today! Its practically customized now! The bigger screen never hurts, especially the older you get! ;) I can always tweak it on an as needed basis. For now I love it!

Man the wired headphone jack was quite literally all I needed to hear. I like this phone more already just give me a price.

LG is my favourite phone brand because they are innovative and develop some cool features..
But they always look for high end smart phone category..
Good specs along with better chipset LG can take over Indian markets..

LG V20/removable battery gang assemble!!

The LG Velvet has such impressive name and design. OLED Screen and USB-C cable speaks excellent security. Its slim design is easy on hand for anyone regardless of gender and age. As time progressed smart phones at its solid-state design got stronger and each user have gotten more familiar to their phone.

I work in sales for plans and phones and my advice is buy buy buy it

[Thedesertguy]

It looks absolutely gorgeous!!

Might have to get one. This looks like such a homerun to me. LG does have some great devices. My only thing is 6.8 inch is massive... 6.4 is a sweet spot to me as far as screens go.

I've always been a Samsung guy, but lately got a bit bored with them. Lg has a similar feel, but fresher looking to me.

I'm still rocking the Stylo 5. Still liking it too! But this work of art might be next...

I feel like everyone is really appreciating LG phones more now, since they announced they are done. 😥

I wish LG would bring back the power and volume rockers to the back, they were so natural being there.

[Darkwormhole]

It is a excellent phone, I should know I own one myself, it's very beautiful, very thin, capable, and have a very beautiful screen, it can also record 60fps which is also great, plus with that second screen case makes multitasking a breeze, can you imagine on a video call, while communicating on another app and watching a YouTube video all at once? Yeah that's what lg has done, plus the speakers sounds great, and the phone will age well it's good to get away from the Samsung, iPhone popularity contest.

You missed a lot of things in this showdown Pretty girl. The great audio through speakers and headphone jack, Great screen, Voice Bokeh feature, Water and Dust resistance IP68 rating not found in One plus 8, Very slim body, ASMR recording, Wireless Charging and so many color variants to choose from. Well now we can expect a not so aggressive review when its about LG.

[rwigemamikedeo]

I have always liked LG I am loving this.

[aaronofficials]

For real I got the lg velvet ad right before this

[Maddie_is_a_swiftie]

I hope Verizon will support it. It looks amazing

[lucasbrown]

One thing is absolutely clear with the LG Velvet phone is that one does not need to burn massive holes in their pockets to be able to afford a 5G smartphone. Partially we of course have MediaTek and its Dimensity 1000C chip to thank for that. Along with that the waterdrop camera setup is very impressive and the 4000mAh battery ofcourse. It is very decently priced which is amazing
