I am a former LG G4 user and the video recording capabilities on the G4 (even completely stock)I found was excellent. Even while stock on the G4, I could use the free app freedcam and get 4k recording bitrates of 150Mbit to 200Mbit @30fps........on stock unrooted MM.
I am not sure high bitrate 4K is doable on the Sprint LG G5 though. I have tried to google to see anyone doing high bitrate (150MBit or higher) on the LG G5 but have found nothing. The G5 has the same camera sensor and a faster processor.
So does anyone here know of what I can accomplish with a G5 sprint in terms of highest 4k bitrate recording? If so, with what apps? Has anyone used apps like freedcam, cinema4k, etc with high bitrate on the LG G5 Spring variant?
Thanks in advance.
hi guys!i have mate 10 pro and love it so far!!Does it worth to switch to lg g7?How is the camera?Its equally good?
It's recommended to switch from any phone to LG G7 or any LG flagship!

Mate..Don't even think of switching to LG from mate 10 pro..Mate 10 pro is superb both in terms of camera and battery...
Also LG's UI is not even a match for Huawei's feature rich EMUI. If you want timely updates for your phone ..don't ever switch to a LG phone. Huawei is far better in terms of updates. I'm still getting monthly security updates on my Honor 8.
Huawei lags behind on Bluetooth though, if listening to music with high SQ is important LG is a clear upgrade. Otherwise somewhat similar devices.

Yeah, it's totally worth switching form Huawei. LG is far more solid brand. Camera can shoot video in actual formats, even in UHD HEVC with 3rd party apps.
But how is the battery and camera compared to mate?
Mate the 10 pro be with you

IMO ..Mate 10 pro is superior in terms of camera and battery...Mate 10 pro rules for battery endurance among the flagships...Camera only differentiation is the wide angle on g7. But Lecia branded camera is great as well..

Based on what personal experience? I get 4-5+ sot with the lgg7. The battery on the g7 is pretty good imo. Also, isn't the mate 10 pro lacking an SD card slot? That alone is s deal breaker. It also lacks a 3.5 Jack.
Yes, both phones ecxel in different areas. Huawei wins on battery and camera. LG wins on sound quality, better Bluetooth, more powerful cpu/GPU, better for gaming, more nice form factor and lighter. My taste leans towards best SQ available, so LG wins for me. And yes, sdcard is great to have too.
Thank you all. Also how is screen compared to amoled? Are blacks good enough?
Also what about updates?
Which security patch it has now?
Android pie in horizon?

Black is good enough but there is no way you can expect it to be as good as oled screen. Its somehow the best you can expect from an lcd. The brightness is also brightest i've ever seen on any phone.
Using LG, dont expect any fast update. Developments are bloody slow compared to other flagships.

I'm actually kind of regreting getting the LG because of the blacks. I only notices it after my wife got the p20 pro. Because of the RGBW pixels the blacks are really washed out. I don't recommend it if you watch alot of video on the phone. Can't wait for next month's phone to arrive so I can switch to an oled phone. Probably gonna pick the mate 20 pro.
I only recomment this phone if you like one hand use.
That reminds, because the phone is so slim, it's 19.5x9 (or whatever), when you watch a video in full screen and you pinch out to fill the screen the video cuts alot more than an 18x9 phone (like a p20 pro or, I'm guessing, mate 10 pro as well).
Save your money and maybe get one of the phones that will come out next month. The oneplus 6t will the around the price of the G7 and I'm betting it will blow it out of the water.

Compared to the huawei p20, yes.
I'm seeing here that the last update was on August 10.
4k 60 fps recording or playing?

So it has August security patch? Any slow Motion features?

What fps and resolution in slow motion? Pls make one comparison between p20 pro and the g7.

I don't know the resolution. It doesn't specify.
But the p20's slow motion seemed more fluid, if that makes sense.
Is there any difference between the DACs in LG G8 and G7?
Yes as one is housed in a G7 and the other in a G8
Hello, if it's different, apparently. LG confirmed that an improvement in the 3.5 mm output was achieved in the G8 and V50.

The only thing they say is that the people of LG told them that they improved the Quad DAC with respect to the V40

The difference is that now QuadDAC is used to maximize DTS:X to produce full range stereo surround sound
Also the speaker on v50 is more powerful than v40, 1.3watt boombox + 0.7watt RAS (Receiver Aided Speaker). While g8 has 2.1 channel CSO (dual transducers) + boombox
FYI, LG g3 & g4 had 1watt loudspeaker, and it was super powerful
i'm one of those weird guys who uses a usb dac with various overpriced high impedance headphones and i actually do like enabling the QuadDac with said high impedance headphones.
however, that DTS X 3D thing is horrible and i leave it off. sure i feel surrounded, but it sounds like vocals are coming through at a very low bitrate. maybe i need some different source files that make proper use of it?

Yes, I've noticed the DAC on the G8 has a clearer more cleaner sound than that of the LG G7
I know that the SD855 is capable of doing EIS for 4k 60fps as I've noticed that other ones with the same chip are starting to come out with updates to enable this feature. I know that all SD855 phones already can do EIS for 4k 30fps but not 60fps (the option greys out or disappears). for example, the zenfone 6 recently had an update to enable this. i'm not sure which other phone can do this right now.
I'm not sure why there isn't more details when it comes to EIS as it is a very very attractive feature, as it almost replaces the need to have a gimbal. i 99% sure the G8 since the G7 also has been using gyro-based EIS meaning the stabilization algorithm is optimized by the data from the gyro. i hope that one day they also add OIS to the ultrawide cam as EIS crops in alot.
thanks,
Hi,
Are you talking about the SteadyCam option presence on LG G8/S/X devices?
As I heard of, for the moment only main lens and FHD 16:9 maximum but it may arrive soon. I'll ask my colleagues next week.
Weird question to place here ... but @steadfasterX has a OnePlus 6T ...
I am buying a OnePlus 6T or 7 Pro. It is not about the price tag, it is about the camera.
You all know the qualities of our G4's camera. It is the reason I found interest in photography.
Its main feature is the simpleness! Take the LG stock camera app. Or ProShot (*yuks*). It makes photos, it does not have filters and AI guessing what you are shooting, or software-augmented portrait modes with fake bokeh.
Whatever comes out as a JPG is as beautiful as the human eye can see. Sometimes I have to edit the DNGs for minor details, for zoom+focus-aid etc.
The controls are simple and manual mode is supported in any app with Camera2 API.
From that point: shooting with the LG G4 indeed is a bit like shooting with a DSLR/DSLM.
But will I get the best manual mode/no filter/AI depending results with more with the OnePlus 6T or more with the OnePlus 7 Pro?
