Third-party reviews

What we like about LG V60 ThinQ 5G UW (8GB + 128GB)

  • Excellent, long-lasting battery life (around 45 hours in tests).
  • Exceptional audio quality with a rare 3.5mm headphone jack and Hi-Fi DAC, highly praised by audiophiles.
  • Strong performance thanks to the Snapdragon 865 processor and 8GB RAM, handling most tasks and games without lag.
  • High-quality camera capable of taking great photos in good light and recording 8K video, with useful manual controls.
  • A large, bright 6.8-inch OLED display with good color accuracy.
  • Expandable storage via a microSD card slot, a feature often missing in modern flagships.
  • Durable build with IP68 water and dust resistance.
  • Support for 5G, Wi-Fi 6, NFC, and wireless charging.
  • Good value for money as a used or older flagship phone.

What we don't like about LG V60 ThinQ 5G UW (8GB + 128GB)

  • Only has a single SIM card slot.
  • The charging port can be a point of failure for some users.
  • The phone is large and heavy, making one-handed use difficult.
  • The in-display fingerprint sensor has an inconsistent performance and is not always reliable.
  • User reviews note a lack of durability in drop tests, with the back glass and screen proving fragile; a case is essential.
  • The phone has a lower-resolution 1080p display compared to other flagships of its time.
  • Software support has ended as LG is no longer in the phone business, raising concerns about future updates.
  • Camera app defaults (e.g., 64MP mode) may not save user preferences, requiring manual adjustment for every use.
  • The phone is primarily optimized for Verizon's 5G UW network, limiting its 5G potential on other carriers.

Verdict

The LG V60 ThinQ 5G UW is a robust, productivity-focused smartphone featuring a large 6.8-inch P-OLED display and 8GB of RAM paired with 128GB of internal storage. Its key pros include the powerful Snapdragon 865 processor, a massive 5,000mAh battery for extended use, an excellent headphone jack with a Hi-Fi Quad DAC, and 5G UW connectivity. A notable con is the phone's bulkiness, especially when utilizing its signature, optional Dual Screen accessory, and it only received limited, inconsistent software support from LG before the company exited the smartphone market.
