Once you have had DAC you wont go back !!!!
Through hex_hacker09 via❗️♌️stagra♏️ I was able to access a private account, thanks Genius
I didn't get earphones, & ended up mad, bc this phone went on sale for 1/2 off, plus it was after midnight, so now I'm only paying 1/2. Still never got earbuds, so I've gone through quite a few, nothing sounds right, so I bought wireless earbuds and they r day shyt.! Honestly thinking about switching back to iPhone x , I bought this bc I have extensive nerve damage& I've dropped it knocked my coffee over on it, and thanks to the beveled edges, just like new, AMEN to that! Much easier to hold & / pickup than the other phones. I do not like Google & I've trained & re-trained Google assistant. It's an endless stream of an irritating argument with assistant.

I had to return an LG V50, one reason is that it was hardcoded for sprint and I have t mobile… but nevermind that. It was also annoying that it was difficult to swipe down to see my notifications, and unfortunately, I didn't see you do that at all in this video with the V40.
good review!
can anyone tell which launcher is being used here
ONLY LG HAS SINCE LONG TIME 810 MIL STD GRADE UN BREAKABLE EASYLY.
I Am Watching on MY favourite 💖 LG V40💖.
LG IS ALWAYS ROCK
GREATE BRAND OVER ALL BRANDS.💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
i was gonna get one but u can’t use the telephoto in manual which is just pure fail
I was torn trying to chose between this and the g8. I went with the g8 for the size and battery life hope I made the right choice
V 40 is still a top dog in 😘2020 Even more so now that all of our phones are going to 1080 1440 3120 looks really f**** nice
Wow there's so many wrong things you said I'm amazed. Did you not 'proofread' your videos?
Still using it in Feb 2020
no courage? you are full of bs
Why put a puny battery in it? Why, LG.?
Google assistant is garbage. I wish that button wasn't there.
$400 at Costco right now? Worth it?
Ughhh for someone who has no damn clue about electronics in general…. explain these things as if someone has never used a phone before bc this makes no sense to ppl who don't know about electronics😢
There is 128Gb version, not only 64Gb.
Just ordered this phone yesterday for the equivalent of US$350. My Note 9 is cracked so I thought I'd switch back to LG and grab a decent pair of headphones to enjoy the DAC.
Get some decent high impedance cans and flatten your EQ.
Watching on my lg V 40❤
This phone has Meridian tuned quad dac. the first of its kind. The other LGs had B&L or whatever.
You can't activate the dac's full power on your low impedance headphones.
You can trick the dac to you its full capabilities with this; https://www.amazon.co.uk/Extension-FosPower-4-Conductor-Auxiliary-Headphones-Gold/dp/B01552UGSS?th=1
I cannot send or receive pictures. I can use all other data. Make calls send texts. Surf web ECT. Any ideas. I have reset the phone hard and soft. I have reset the apps l have reset the Sim and the network settings. Any ideas y'all?
And just one year later the price is $215…. just ordered it. Only a complete idiot takes a 75% loss in one year. Now if you're loaded, by all means…
Thanks for the info. My Note 9 screen has cracked severely and is dying. I'm seriously considering buying the V40. I had a G3 a while ago and didn't mind the UI.
Where can I buy it?
Still got the v30, its also great
I have the LG V 10 and I love it but I've been needing to upgrade for a while. I was waiting for the V50 reviews but I've decided to go with either the G8 thinQ or the V40. I can't decide. The past 4 phones I've had are LG.
Anyone have some advice on which is better for the price?
I noticed when recording video that I cannot switch between all three cameras if you're in wide angle you're stuck in wide angle if you're in standard you can switch between telephoto and standard but not wide any way to fix that?
Traded in my note 8 for the v40. Its been one day and NOT having Bixby be annoying as fuck is already worth it by itself
Nice phone just got one. I can not disable the data warning icon letting me know the data is off and forcing me to turn it on ( like I use the wifi most of the time) and don't want to be forced to use data unless I want to. The icon will not go away and can not be gotten rid of. What do I do? I have the ATT unlocked version.
