LG is known for offering a unique take on mobile phone design. They’ve proven with each release that they’re not afraid to try something new and the LG G5 is no exception. With its modular design, LG touts that you can add features or upgrade your phone to suit the way you plan to use it. The phone itself was still one of the top flagship devices of 2016, and while it's since been superseded by the LG G6 and V30, for those on a budget the G5 provides an interesting alternative to many of the cookie-cutter devices on the market. With a lower price tag and solid spec list, the G5 is an enticing proposition with some great deals to be had. The LG G5 includes a lot of first--some for mobile phones in general and others for LG. One of the good ones is the switch to a metal unibody design. Unlike previous phones in the G-series, you won’t find a bunch of bold curves or shiny plastic bits. The LG G5 may not be as ornate as Samsung's glass-and-metal-fused phone, or Apple's aluminum iPhone 6S, but it's a step in the right direction after the questionably styled G4.
Redesigned from the ground up, the LG G5 5.3-inch screen on the G5 comes in a body measuring 5.9-inches tall, 2.9-inches wide, 0.4-inches thick, and weighs 5.6 ounces - waves plastic goodbye and ditches the signature rear volume controls for a streamlined, modern metal & glass design. So, in its bid to endow the LG G5 with a metal armor without losing customers to the lack of a MicroSD slot and removable battery, LG engineered a slide-out bottom compartment that houses a 2800 mAh battery and a MicroSD slot alongside it. For the third time in a row, the LG G5 features a Quad-HD resolution screen, but at 5.3 inches by diagonal, it is smaller than the LG G4 and G3's 5.5-inch displays before it. LG went with an IPS-LCD 1440 x 2560 pixels, 16:9 ratio display once again and incorporates an interesting Always On feature. The LG G5 runs Android 6.0.1 (Marshmallow), upgradable to Android 8.0 (Oreo) topped off with LG's own UI, and is powered by the Qualcomm MSM8996 Snapdragon 820 SoC with 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage.
With the typical specs out of the way, reviews start delving into some of the unique aspects of the G5. One of the first things noticeable, when you flip the G5 over, is that there are two cameras on the back. LG included a 16 MP, f/1.8, 26mm (wide) main camera with optical image stabilization as well as an 8 MP, f/2.4, 9mm wide-angle lens for additional photo options. And don’t worry selfie-fans, there’s still an 8MP front-facing camera as well. The multiple lenses offer options you simply can’t find on other phones. The phone also allows exporting images in RAW format for professional-level tweaking. Other features include an in-depth set of manual settings and the ability to shoot 4K@30fps, 1080p@30/60fps, HDR, stereo sound rec video. Powering all this feature-swapping madness, you’ll find a Li-Ion 2800 mAh, removable battery. While TechRadar noted, With moderate to heavy usage I found the G5 wouldn't get past early evening before dying. Fortunately, with a removable battery, power users can swap out a spare on particularly busy days. If you need a quick top-off, the phone features Qualcomm’s QuickCharge 3.0 feature, allowing you to reach roughly 50% battery charge in only 30 minutes. Reviews noted that not only is charging quick, but there are no issues with heat either. Not only does it include perks for power users, but LG's also changed the way we access the battery with a cartridge-like input so you don't have to remove the back cover. A complete review can be seen on the GSMarena page.
This phone is designed to work on select GSM and CDMA networks and is 4G LTE capable. LTE is an advanced cellular network data protocol capable of data speeds so fast that they compete with wired broadband Internet providers. With an LTE connection, this phone should have no problem streaming HD video, downloading apps, uploading photos, or anything else that requires a high-speed data connection. The phone is also backward compatible with 3G and 2G data for instances when you can't get LTE. In addition to cellular wireless, this phone also features Bluetooth, NFC, and Wi-Fi connectivity.
If you bought your LG G5 from a network service provider either on “pay as you go” or “on contract” most probably your LG is locked to that network and you are not able to use it with other carriers. If you want to use your device with other GSM SIM cards you need to unlock LG G5. The SIM lock activation means that your mobile phone device can only function with the SIM card of the carrier who sold you the LG G5 and with whom you have signed the 12 or 24 months contract.
One of the bright sides is that you can always attempt to unlock your brand new LG G5 - meaning an unlock that will allow your LG G5 to function on any SIM card by any carrier anywhere (Worldwide).
So, if you have just signed a contract with your carrier and purchased an LG G5 have a look at the SIM unlock procedure described below.
And why not? Who is to say that you are bound to use one carrier with your LG G5 when you can use the services of any carrier in the world you want. You already pay the installments for the device, and you’re bound by law to do so. There is no problem with that. You want the device, and you will pay for it one way or another. But there is a problem when you have to use the services of one carrier only for two years. Let’s say that you have bought your LG G5 from T-Mobile, but most of your relatives use Verizon. Your relatives are paying less on their monthly bills. The math doesn’t add up, and all logic points to the fact that you need to change the carrier.
Lucky for you, you can now perform an easy, quick, and cheap SIM unlock. You don’t have to wait for months or pay enormous fees to free your device from that restriction. All you have to do is read the instructions provided for you here, and you will be good to go and have the freedom to choose a carrier that will give you the best quality service for your budget.
See if it asks for a code. If it does use the standard SIM unlock method, and if it doesn’t use the USB unlock method.

Get your LG phone unlocked via IMEI Code or Remote USB with no threat to the device’s warranty.
Unlocking your LG phone doesn’t request any effort (almost). You just have to send us the phone’s IMEI number and the name of the service provider that locked it. What we’ll do is search several databases looking for your unlock code. Once found, we’ll send it to you accompanied by clear info about what you have to do to unlock the device.
An unlocked phone basically allows you to change the network provider on your own terms, according to your requirements and priorities.
With an unlocked phone, all you need when you go abroad is your cell and a local SIM. That’s the smart way to call locally without being charged a fortune for roaming service.
When you decide to sell your phone, you’ll get a better deal. Unlocked cells mean bigger bucks at resale. Not to mention that you can sell it abroad.
IMEI unlock is the recommended method to unlock your phone, since it implies genuine unlock codes from de company that has manufactured the device. Nothing fancy, no need for software or breaking the device’s case. And NO need for warranty loss.
It doesn’t matter if your device has been modified or updated in terms of software. Our unlocking technique works regardless of the updates to the original software.
But if the phone has been subjected to any sort of modifications, we can’t guarantee anything. You have to restore the phone’s initial settings and be aware that it’s possible to have altered some important elements of the software that we needed in order to unlock it successfully.
First of all, you must be sure you’ve followed our instructions.
Attention! It’s important to follow these rules!
Here are some requirements you need to follow prior to ordering an LG G5 unlock code:
If you’ve done just that and the phone still doesn’t react to the unlock code, that means that the device was previously unlocked or that it doesn’t recognize the SIM. If you’re getting the messages “Network Locked”, “SIM not valid” or “Card error” you can unlock your handset with UnlimitedUNLOCK.
If you bought your LG G5 in the USA and it’s locked on T-Mobile and MetroPCS, make sure you’ve put in place the Device Unlock app. Then forward your request using our Device Unlock App Service.
There’s no need for you to we've got you covered. You'll be able to get that information by using our LG Info Check by IMEI [Manufacturer | Country | Carrier | Serial #] in order to get your device's original network. This service is also used when you want this info for a different reason, such as buying a phone that’s been used, you can get the details you need using our original carrier check.
Not much, actually. You must have your devices' correct IMEI, internet connection, and a valid email address since that’s how we’ll send you the code and information on how to use it. Then you need to have access to the device’s menu and keyboard.
