love this phone i hope it really shows up since i keep getting run around from amazon and the seller.

Got this renewed from Olympic wireless it looked brand new at the time. The phone just updated recently a few months back to Android 12 OTA T-Mobile the battery has been amazing over the past 3 years by now i would have expected it to be unusable but I still to this day get consistently 4 hours screen on time. It's still plenty fast for my needs but I can start to feel it's age it's slightly less snappy than 3 years ago but as long as you are not used to the latest and greatest its probably not noticeable.The only issue I've had is that the phone at times will seem to go into some sort of deep energy saving mode although not activated it still does it but not often when i unlock it it can take a good 5-10 seconds to wakeup screen on and usable it's some kind of a bug glitch but that's the only problem after 3 years and at the time of purchase at 1/3 of the price of new remember it looked and worked like new it was mint I'm super happy i got it.No need to spend $1k+ on a new phone just buy last year's flagship renewed at a steep discount squeeze 3 years out of it and repeat.This phone has cost me less than $100 per year of ownership excellent price to time ratio.

This is the second refurbished phone I ordered from this vendor. The first one was able to return, this second one only had 3 months to exchange. Here I am less than 4 months in and the phone needs to be restarted a few times a day because my emails and messages stop. Annoying because I will get a call stating they sent me an email or text and nothing until after I restart the phone. I am not saying all of their phones are bad or that they are a bad company. I am saying the products I received did not work and 3 months for a refurbished phone is too small of a window. 6 months should be the standard. The first phone just went black screen even though it was on. I did get a refund for that one.

International use and the sim is locked. The item was described as unlocked to all carriers but unfortunately I couldn’t activate my MTN sim could you please send me a form of code or anything to get my phone unlocked

This was my phone 2 phones ago, so my review is a bit late. Lasted over 2 years before it started to get laggy, rebooting randomly was somewhat more frequent, and battery life plummeted. Love this phone, and the one I upgraded from the g7. Awesome battery life! Dropped it many times, in the case, and the screen never cracked, same for the g7. Did find out when my then new phone arrived, and while taking the sim card out, the back was completely shattered! Never seen anything like it. The case and screen were perfectly fine.

First off, register your phone at LGpromise.com for the 2 year warranty. It is accepted when purchased from here. Just send a copy of your invoice when you sign in on your browser and save as a PDF. I sent a screenshot from the app and that wasn't sufficient. Do so before April 2021.Great price on a flagship phone from 2019.I needed an upgrade and didn't like anything available with my carrier.The phone was activated on Metro by T-Mobile. The WiFi Calling and VoLTE features work.Arrived in near mint condition. There were fairly visible scratches on the side of the screen. Added a screen protector and they're no longer visible. The back Glass looks flawless. I'm contemplating adding a ceramic coating to prevent new scratches.The 3500maH battery is ok. It's definitely a lot better than any phone with a lower capacity. I was able to get 7-8 hrs of screen on time and 27hrs of use in total. From what I've read this is normal and considered good. For me it's ok, but I'm used to having my Moto G7 Power with a 5000maH battery. That can last 3 days, but that's due to less RAM and a 720p IPS display.Overall there are so many features to list. Many great reviews on YouTube.Pros:6.1" QUAD OLED 1440p displayQUAD DAC 3.5mm Headphone Jack6GB of RAM128GB (105 available) of storage plus 2TB expandable storage support.Android 10Rear Fingerprint SensorFast Face UnlockCamera features21W QC 3.0/4.0 PD supportWireless Charging SupportGorilla Glass 5/6Cons:3500maH BatteryCharging this phone is really good and supports 21w charging and wireless charging at 10w.

This T-Mobile specific model worked well. The 6GB of RAM is a good amount for todays needs. 4GB is bare minimum IMO. For the price I bought it for "RENEWED", it is a great deal. As fast as the fastest Samsung flagships speedwise.Few things kept it from being the totally complete. The "stereo" sound uses an on screen vibration system to simulate a large speaker. Then a small single speaker on the bottom. Looks neat on paper but in real world use, the sound is muffled and muddy. It might have been better if we were able to disable the on screen speaker system and only use the single real speaker on the bottom. Unfortunately it's not.Some of the gimmicks like the hand motion controls and IR vein pattern reader for unlocking is more a one time "wow" than reliable real world daily use. Takes too long to unlock or too much muscle control to want to use it normally. I disabled those after a few tries.The camera is really good but lags behind the Pixels, Huaweis, and Samsungs.If you can find it for a good price and don't mind the very minor shortcomings.

I purchased this phone in 2020 and it's still performing well. It's been a little over 3 years and I'm surprised the battery hasn't noticeably degraded. The model is getting old, but still has decent specs when compared to some new retail phones in a similar price range. The battery life is partly due to using only quality charging devices and cords. My usage is moderate to high. Screen, camera, print reader are all still looking nice and functioning well. 5 stars for the value.
