My new LG G5

After months of thinking and considering whether to get a Note5, S7 or G5, it finally came the time to make a decision. Yes, it's official! LG G5, that is.

There are a couple of reasons why I got the G5. One reason was that it was cheaper, and got cheaper after the Corporate discount sets in, and cost less than the other two. The second reason was because I'm used to the G series, my previous was a G2, so is the previous, previous one, though, its 3 generations apart, I still went for it.

True enough, LG has been lagging behind Samsung in terms of technology and offering surprising phone features, well, they still have followers like me. From what I know, the G5 don't come with wireless charging, with not so incredible screen or features and the battery capacity was pathetic at 2800mAh, not huge like its cousins, I just hope that I can last long. But, the one thing I'm used is the Knock-knock to bring up the screen. I hope that the newer phone's knock code is still working flawless, plus, it came with Always-On, so it would save some battery power, don't have to keep knocking on it to activate the full screen to check SMS, WhatsApp message or time.

The G5 camera came with 2 back cameras, one for near shots, and other with the wide angle, looks good, but well, nothing really special. Camera settings and features are bare basic, like what other camera phones offer too!
