The latest masterpiece of "Brain Tuner": LG V20 national debut experience

Speaking of LG, there may be a lot of enthusiasts who will lament that "iron is not steel". Anyway, we welcomed their latest flagship, V20, as scheduled. After LG entered the Android camp, it launched many models with highlights. Optimus 2X, Opimus 3D, Opimus 4X, G2, V10, G5, etc. are believed to be very familiar to "Lucky Pink". In particular, V10 and G5 in the past one or two years let us fully feel how big LG's brain holes are. And V20, the protagonist of this article, is the continuation of V10. Its biggest feature is that it continues the dual screen configuration of V10 and the dual rear camera configuration of G5. In addition, it still retains the setting of replaceable batteries.


This experience uses the Korean version of V20, model LG-F800L, for reference only.

The packaging of V20 is still the simple design used by LG.

 

After opening, it uses a form of "turning the page" to open. The left side is the phone, and the right side is the accessories.

 

Turning over the inner layer, you can see that the accessories are composed of four small parts. The packaging design is quite innovative and three-dimensional.

 

Take out the small box of the headset, you can see B&O The logo of Play, this time V20 comes with a B&O tuning headset, which is said to be worth 1400 Hong Kong dollars.

 

Open all accessories. In addition to the regular earphones, data cables, and power adapters, there is an OTG adapter and a Type-C to microUSB adapter. LG seems to follow Samsung in accessories. Since V20 is designed with replaceable battery, there is a special battery in the package.

 

The data cable still looks full of materials, but it has become a flat design.

 

Battery capacity 3200mAh It is a battery made in China and produced by LG.

 

The earphone attached with B&O is of in ear design. The upper part of the splitter is made of plastic material, and the lower part of the splitter is a braided shell.

 

The earphones are made of ordinary materials. The whole wall, including the conduit, is made of plastic. It seems that the quality is not very high, so the author is also suspicious of the value of HK $1400.

 


Back to the mobile phone itself, at first glance, V20 is very different from V10 in design, but there is still a QHD( 2560*1440 )Grade 5.7 inches IPS screen, another one 160*1040 The secondary screen of.

 

Many people say that V20 is a "copy" of the BlackBerry Z10. In fact, it is a historical model of LG that they do not know much about. Obviously, V20 is more likely to be launched as early as 2011 Optimus 3D Salute.

 

The earpiece is designed to be very convergent. The upper and lower edges of the front panel glass have a certain radian, but the curvature is not as large as that of G5.

 

Although V20 also has three layers of chin (including virtual keys), the height of the area below the screen is well controlled.

 

We know that V10 uses two front facing cameras, one of which is wide-angle, enabling multiple self portraits, while V20 can also achieve this function. The difference is that it can be achieved with one camera. This is a 5 million Pixels, F/1.9 The aperture of the camera is larger than that of the V10. On the right side of the camera are the light sensor and distance sensor.

 


The shape and functions of the auxiliary screen are not very different from those of the V10. With the cooperation of the sensor, the auxiliary screen has three states when it is in standby: high brightness, low brightness and completely off.

 

Because the V20's frame is not narrow, plus the 5.7 inch large screen, it will be a little difficult to hold it with one hand, and the sandblasting process+arc surface on the back makes it not very reliable to hold it, and it always feels like it needs to slide out, which should be particularly careful.


The design of the back, V20 and V10 are also very different, and it can hardly be seen that they are a series of products.

 

The dual camera design reminds us of the G5. Due to the great difference in the body structure, the V20 is different from the V10 and G5, and the rear cover is a three-stage design.


After three generations of G4, V10 and G5 products, LG has finally updated the configuration of the rear camera and replaced the sensor with one that is very popular this year IMX298 , the secondary camera is replaced with an 8 megapixel IMX219 The other features such as optical anti shake, laser assisted focusing, dual LED fill light and F/1.8 aperture are retained.

 

The sandblasting process is very delicate and feels good. Some versions also have a "belief logo" of B&O on the back cover (Korean version V20 in the picture).

 

To open the back cover of the V20, just press the button on the side of the fuselage. Generally, the button at this position will be the shutter button.

 

The back cover is made of aluminum alloy, and the surface is sandblasted. The dark gray looks low-key and restrained.


It also looks full of texture. There are NFC Coil.

 

LG has insisted on the replaceable battery design for many years. It is estimated that there is only one high-end mobile phone of mainstream brands. What is commendable is that the V20 still guarantees the reliability of the mobile phone while maintaining the detachable structure 7.6 mm The thickness of.

 

The Korean V20 supports one nanoSIM and one microSD card. The two card slots overlap on the right side of the power key.

 

There is a noise reducing microphone on the top of the fuselage. Fortunately, infra-red The sensor is retained.

 

Bottom center Type-C Connector, 3.5mm headphone connector, microphone and loudspeaker are respectively set on both sides.

 

There is a volume key on the left side of the body. It can be imagined that it would be a bit awkward to use the traditional screen capture method.

 

Although the detachable rear cover is used, some joints on the V20 fuselage are OK, and the gaps are not too large.

 

V20 is global First pre installed Android 7.0 The first shipment of Pixel's mobile phone was still not delivered before the deadline, which is also a rare case that a non son stole the first shipment of the system. The system allows the user to choose whether there is a secondary menu. The drop down bar combines the original Android style, but the shortcut switch has become 4 * 3, a total of 12.

 

The system setting style has not changed much, and the system is based on Android 7.0 The official version, the security patch, was released on September 1.

 

The system has a large number of applications from local Korean operators, but most of them can be uninstalled successfully. LG also has a function similar to Samsung's "intelligent manager", called Smart Doctor, but it is much weaker in function and cannot cut off the self startup of applications.

 

The secondary screen can be set automatically for the opening and closing of the main screen. Compared with G5, the screen setting has more functions. The display mode of reducing blue light is added, and the function option of "advanced setting" is added.

 

The overall configuration of V20 and G5 is basically at the same level Snapdragon 820 Standard edition( 2.15GHz+1.6GHz ), GPU is Adreno 530@624MHz The GPU driver version has not been updated. It is still V145


I believe that everyone is interested in the imaging effect of V20, so here we can go directly to the night scene proof without any suspense:

IPhone 7 Plus (main camera)


LG V20 (main camera)


LG G5 (main camera)


From this group of samples, exposure shows that both LG phones are much larger than the iPhone 7 Plus, and many of them are overexposed in the light. Among them, V20 is more aggressive in exposure control than G5, which has a feeling of turning night into day. In terms of details, the V20 is the best, followed by the G5. The iPhone 7 Plus has pressed the ISO so low that many dark details can no longer be seen. In terms of noise, V20 is slightly more than G5, and both of them are more than iPhone. In addition, V20 still has an obvious red problem when shooting night scenes, and its white balance is worse than that of G5.


More experience and data analysis of V20 will be revealed to you in the subsequent detailed evaluation. Please pay attention.
