The retail version of LG G5 has officially met with us. Its biggest feature is the design of dual cameras, replaceable modules and batteries. We have also taken the lead in obtaining the Hong Kong version of G5 to start our experience today:
LG G5 experience video (Tencent)
LG G5 experience video (Youku)
Compared with the previous packaging, the style is small and fresh, and white with turquoise is used. PS: On the right is LG's official battery charging kit. Please pay attention to our subsequent evaluation videos for specific features.
Similar to the replaceable module of the mobile phone itself, the packaging of G5 can also be "split".
Open the inner layer and you can see the phone. There is a transparent protective film on the outer layer of the phone.
Phone accessories include power adapter, USB Type-C data cable, headset and card pin. Here we need to talk about earphones. V10 comes with an AKG tuned earphone, while G5 comes with an ordinary earphone. B&O's earphones need to be purchased at an additional cost.
Power adapter maximum support 9V 1.8A The highest measured charging power is 16W About, there is no improvement compared with the previous generation of products.
In the past, the data line of LG mobile phones is used to be called "Viagra line", and G5 is no exception. The wire material is full, and it is estimated that it can withstand relatively high charging current.
The front panel design of LG G5 continues the design style of previous generations of products, and the front panel still retains the brand logo.
The chin is made of brushed metal. In fact Plastic texture of material.
G5 does not use traditional 2.5D glass, but Peripheral part of earphone The glass is curved, which is quite special, but it doesn't improve the touch.
front camera 8 megapixel 。
The left side of the phone is the volume key.
There is an obvious button at the bottom of the left side of the phone, which is used to open the "chin". In addition, from this angle, it can be seen that the junction between the metal body and the module is not very good, and the workmanship is very rough. In addition, there is a hidden antenna partition strip at the joint, which is relatively rare.
The position stacked on the right side of the mobile phone has the same antenna partition bar design, and the combination on the right side also has obvious defects. I don't know whether it is the first batch of manufacturing problems.
There is a card slot on the right side of the fuselage, which supports dual cards and dual standby. It can support two nanoSIM cards, of which card 2 uses AND OR You can choose to use the nanoSIM card or TF card.
There is also a hidden antenna partition strip on the top of the fuselage, which adopts the injection molding process.
The headphone interface is on the top of the body, and there is also an antenna partition bar beside the interface. There are four parts of the whole machine, and G5 is also reserved infrared sensor 。
The bottom of the fuselage has a central USB Type－C The connector and speaker are also on the bottom of the body.
The back of the fuselage adopts a metal sandblasting process, and the black version is somewhat similar to the Xiaomi Generation 1, which is very familiar to aircraft users. However, the back of the G5 certainly has more scientific and technological content. Dual cameras, dual color temperature LED fill lights, laser assisted focusing, fingerprint recognition and other technologies are familiar to everyone. Unfortunately, the G5 abandoned the rear volume button, which I think is very inappropriate and gave up my unique design.
G5 has added a 8 megapixel wide-angle camera , so the camera part is very complex and has a sense of technology, and therefore has been widely criticized in terms of appearance. The camera and fingerprint identification part are slightly protruding. The main camera is at the same level as G4 and V10, with 16 million pixels Sony IMX234 sensor, F ／ 1.8 aperture 。
The biggest feature of G5 is undoubtedly the design of detachable module, which is commonly known as "removing the chin". Press the button and pull it slightly to separate the battery and module.
The default module has no additional functions. We can purchase another camera module and HiFi module to expand the phone's functions.
The battery and "chin" can also be separated, but they are fixed with clips, so the durability is worrying.
Observing the details of the "chin", we can see that the front panel is still Plastic The back cover and frame are metal.
Looking at the fuselage, we can see that the back cover is metal, but after the violence test by foreign media, we found that the back cover also contains some plastic materials.
