I'm coming from a S6 Edge. I wanted a bigger screen and the 7 was just to similar to what I had. Then the Note 7 was gone. Started hearing good things about the V20 so I watched and read over 30 previews and reviews. So after liking what I read I picked it up release day. I will be the first to say it is very hard to come from Samsung to a new brand. My last 3 phones were Galaxy's. I knew I had 14 days to try this phone out before I could return it. Well that wont be happening as this phone is terrific. It seems all the little things I liked on my Galaxy are here for the most part. The screen is way better than I thought it would be and is outstanding in the sun. I held it up in the sun today with the S6 next to it and the V20 blows it away. I never thought I would see a cell phone in the sun but now I can. I'm a music nut. Metal mostly. Prog Metal, Death Metal and what not. If music is your thing then this is your phone as it has a high end DAC chip inside making music sound incredible !! It even comes with high end Bang & Olfson H3 ear buds worth $179. I didn't like the LG launcher but I also don't like Samsung's either. I use Next Launcher on all my Android phones.Best $15 you'll ever spend as you can download the launcher to as many devices you own with just the one purchase. LG also lets you use NFC to transfer everything you want from the Galaxy. It also has a second screen. A sliver at the top of the screen that's always on even when the phone is in it's sleep mode. It shows your notifications such as emails and texts. Plus other quick pick apps like WiFi and flashlight. You can personalize the phone too with your signature at the top. You type in your name and it puts it at the top of the screen in script form. The camera is also great with it's laser focus and the awesome wide angle lens. I have to mention the battery. It lasts me almost 2 days. I have never had a battery last me this long before. It uses USB 3 and it charges super fast. It doesn't have wireless charging. But I never used mine on my Galaxy's because I use cases with magnetic plates for my magnetic window mounts in my car and those interfere with the wireless charging. I'm a power user as I use the phone for work. I deliver payroll and I use an app for that for every delivery and it tracks my deliveries with GPS too. And this phone is up for the all day tasks no problem. For any feature I missed I found an app for. With the power button on the back I found it hard to switch off the screen while the phone was on the windshield mount so I downloaded a screen off button in the app store. Now I just touch the little button on the screen and it shuts off the screen instantly. And I wanted certain stuff to wake up the phone on the lock screen and got an app for that too. So there you go, my two cents worth of a review. After reading this watch a few YouTube vids and hold the phone yourself. I'm sure you can judge it with your own eyes. I'm glad I took the chance on it. You will too
