Abstract: The OnePlus 3 has been grandly dubbed the "flagship killer". We've learned to give such flowery marketing spiel a wide berth, but on this occasion it's heartening to discover that there may be some truth to such an outlandish claim. Read our initial thoug...

Ultimately, LG G5 could be much more, but for now, it is not up to its competitors, even with its modules (perhaps because sold separately). The features are the first in the category and the modules are an interesting innovation (Google is still developi...

modular design, great cameras, good screen, replaceable battery, microSD card slot, USBC
slightly less than premium build, battery life not the best, fingerprint scanner not quite as good as some
The LG G5 is an interesting experiment. Its modular slot at the bottom of the phone holds potential, but I suspect it will never be filled. It does allow users to replace the battery while still providing a solid smartphone.The cameras are great fun, it h...

The G5 is bold move from LG and they have to be congratulated.No-one else is making a device that can be customised at a touch of button and for pure innovation we'd love to give LG top marks – but we can't.Although it's a neat idea we're not quite sure i...
Genuinely innovative, Great camera, Removable battery
Accessories are a gimmick, Build doesn't match rivals
I like the LG G5 a lot, it's a real joy to use. Not because it's a perfect smartphone, but because it's innovative. If you want a ‘stand out' smartphone to make a geeky statement, the G5 is it. The modular design is interesting, and the ability to...
