First and foremost, I'm a joke 7 victim. I miss that phone quite a bit and am trying to find a tolerable alternative. I just got the v20 and am very unimpressed. I'm not biased, I've owned 4 of the last 6 LG flagships, including the v10.
I have a few questions about the v20 though.
The most important answer I'm looking for...
Is there a way to turn off the auto unlocking of the phone from simply touching the power button via fingerprint?
Before you ask, I don't use the double tap. It constantly wakes up in my pocket if tap to wake is on, like every LG phone I've had since the g2. I strongly dislike it. I also strongly dislike the rear buttons completely. I don't like that I have to lift my phone from my work desk to turn the screen on. So now I'm already annoyed that I have to lift the phone, plus I have to use other fingers to turn the screen on or it complete unlocks. It's just a huge hassle over all. I don't wanna remove the fingerprints but I will have to if there isn't a way to turn it off.
Second, is there a reason the camera is so mediocre? It's pictures are God awful in both low-light and daytime. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a setting that downgrades the pictures?
Third, is there anything I can do about this ugly display? Any way to make it look better? It's dull and has poor colors. I'm almost embarrassed to show things to people from this phone.
Forth, what's the deal with the speaker? It's so unclear and bad. This has to be the worst speaker phone I've ever heard on a flagship smartphone.
Fifth, what I the actual difference with the 32bit audio? I have very good headphones and with the 32 bit turned on it make almost no difference in clarity. It sounds like its just a treble boost. I have all high quality music files too so don't blame that.
Sixth, why is battery life so bad? It's not even last until lunch with medium usage. I should have to carry 2 batteries to get at least a full work day. What can I do to make it better?
Again, I'm sticking with this phone for sure, at least until March. I'm not complaining just to complain or because I prefer Touchwiz. I just wanna make this phone a little more up to par with its price tag. So far, this isn't nearly worth $800. Maybe $450ish. There is nothing to boast about with this thing other than a removable battery, which I'd 100% sacrifice for water resistance.
Thank you to anyone that can help me make this work a little better for myself.
RIP Note7.
