Modular Aspect Feels A Little Beta At Present, Switching Modules Is Clunky
A lot of people seem non-plussed by the G5; some even claim it looks boring and lacks the charm of last year's model. I 100% disagree with this sentiment — the G5 is a vastly superior device to what came before. It has enough new features, attributes and...
I have to admit I've still enjoyed using the LG G5 and on-contract the price is no-where near that of the iPhones and yet you are getting a lot of features for your money! More i'd admit on the camera front (which is superb) and the phone's general perfor...

modular design, great cameras, good screen, replaceable battery, microSD card slot, USBC
