LG Velvet

I bought one in the colour Ilusion Sunset at January 2021 and now at January 2024 i changed for a S24 Ultra due to instagram bugs in the LG Velvet, 3 years with this amazing phone, i will miss it In my opinion, the most good looking phone ever, of all times. At least the phone will still in my family, since i gave it to my grandmother as a gift. I was comparing the display of the S24 Ultra with the display of the LG velvet, and belive or not the Lg Velvet looks way more better, with more vivid colors.

[...] The audio is very good and it is more than fast enough for my needs. The camera is serviceable, albeit far from premium and the battery life is still long. [...]

[...] Its slow and glitchy. [...] weird shaped screen makes the glass protecter things not fit on it right and fall off. [...]

LG velvet 5G even though without any 90 hz or 120 hz refresh rate or any LTPO adaptive screen, i still love what its capable of especially audio bokeh on its video recording feature and i thought it still awesome. I have bought Korean's secondhand set from Ali Express and already use it for about more than 1 year now and it still works and functioning well like a charm with Android 13 updates. No complain.

[...] That's like not bothering to mention that the iPad pro can be used with the apple pencil. [...]

[...] The battery is failing and I have to restart the phone every few days and clear caches. The camera is also not that great. [...] I have the unlocked 5G version that uses AT&T towers and I got the Android 13 update last month. Edit: also this curved screen. [...]

the LG Velvet has been a great buy for most of the people I know! not just the display and the classy built, the phone also provides really good 5G connectivity & performance with the mediatek dimensity processor

It is a excellent phone, I should know I own one myself, it's very beautiful, very thin, capable, and have a very beautiful screen, it can also record 60fps which is also great, plus with that second screen case makes multitasking a breeze, can you imagine on a video call, while communicating on another app and watching a YouTube video all at once? Yeah that's what lg has done, plus the speakers sounds great, and the phone will age well it's good to get away from the Samsung, iPhone popularity contest.

I ave an lg aristo 5..it workz great...contrary to all the neg reviewz or put downz of the aristo 5, ive had thiz phone for 8 monthz, and itz worked great...anyway, me and my girl , went ova to the mall, and walk around..ofc they had all the cell phone vendors for service and such..one vendor had some phones laid out for display ..google pixel 4a, samsungz, etc, all the usuall suspects..decent phones, but the phone that wowed me, with itz lookz, waz an lg velvet..it was night and day difference, and ive seen great reviewz on the velvet..if i ever get anotha phone, it would be an lg, velvet...amazing phone, has snapdragon 845, etc, etc..lgz for life..oh yeaahh

[...] I feel like the LG Velvet is a very average phone if that makes sense? Didn’t blow anything away especially when you don’t use the dual screen. [...]

I got the phone because it was supposed to have a good camera... but it has the worst camera I've ever had on a phone, and thats comparing it to an old motorola flip phone... It also has shit speakers. [...]

I don't know if I bought a faulty device. I bought the t-mobile variant. However, the battery isn't as good as I thought. It looses 5 percent of battery with sparse browsing within an hour. And that's with extended battery saver on, and brightness set to 12%. Is this normal battery drainage for the phone? [...]

I bought an LG Velvet 5G Snapdragon a couple of weeks ago. [...] The screen is nice, it's fast, and responsive. Also for a 3 year old refurbished phone the battery life is great. I use it off, and on all day and it still has 80 percent at the end. Oh and I fully upgraded the phone, and put android 13 on it as well the day I got it. [...]

Watching from my LG Velvet. [...] Compared to all budget/Chinese phones in this price range, its hard to find better value. I use my Velvet as a secondary device for media consumption and the screen is beautiful for it. [...] Edit: i got Android 13 update a few months ago now.

[...] The LG has a big, gorgeous display.. [...] I travel through Wyoming weekly and the T-Mobile service with the Google pixel phone was always losing signal.. [...]

[...] I got the Velvet for a fraction of the cost and I know I can be satisfied with it for the 2 year term. Absolutely thrilled with massive screen!

I couldn't help but notice that the sky in a lot of the LG Velvet photos was a bit on the green side, so LG need to do something about the tint settings in the processing stage. I know that you can always fix that in post, but you shouldn't have to. Other than that, I think that its camera is pretty good.

I would love a V60 vs Velvet camera comparison focused on value proposition. I see at T-Mobile that the V6 is going for $810 right now with the dual screen case. They have not announced their pricing for the Velvet yet, but it's looks like it'll probably be something like $700 with the dual screen case. Is the the extra $100 or so worth it?

The LG Velvet is such a gorgeous phone. Been debating if I'd go with Velvet or V60 but seems like the V60 is much more powerful for a similar price. Better audio quality and better processor. [...] Gotten too pricey and with too many compromises. [...] I'm very interested in the dual screen capabilities and although I'm just a light gamer and I mostly use my phone for emulators I'm worried that the Velvet won't hold up to it. The lack of updates also worry me a little. [...]

[...] That is why they have a hard time understanding the point of a Dual Screen or just how great the LG phones are. I am still rocking the G8 Dual Screen and the Dual Screen is a mic drop feature . I have had friends that hate mobile games , however when I let them play a game on my G8 , they love it. [...]

[...] This seems to be normal with US unlocked LGs, so I got a carrier phone once more. Surface Duo sounded good, but the specs are not great, and Microsoft seems to have some issues with first generation products. [...]

In June, I bought the LG V60, and it is one of the best phones I ever had! Sadly my duel screen case (the display screen) got a crack on it so I went to my phone company to see if I could order a new one in And they said they cannot because LG was done with that phone for a while. [...] I told them that I wanna buy it, money isn't the problem. [...]

Without a hint of joking, the galaxy S25 is a fucking downgrade from my old ass LG Velvet Samsung what the fuck are you doing? The velvet was obsolete the year after I got it like....five or six years ago.

It is still a good phone in 2024, but I am going to replace its battery soon, as it is almost four years old. 😆

[...] I loved my LG Velvet! I've had it for almost 6 years! [...]

I absolutely love my LG Velvet. I've had nothing but LG phones. [...]

I have had mine since Christmas. Its been a great phone and a true contender for way less money.

[...] I have had LG since the LG 4 and I'm rocking the 7 still. [...]

I am a fan of LG smartphones, since the LG Flex 2 I have remained loyal to the brand, then I acquired the G4, G5, G6, G7, G8, G8X, V60 and now the LG Velvet.

I have Android 10 on this phone and cant uptate to Android 12/13

So I finally upgraded my phone to a 2025 Samsung Galaxy A06 supposedly better than the LG Velvet I had I sold it to them for 40.00 that's pretty much all I'd get for it anyways,I don't like Samsung and I almost got a Motorola maybe I should've idk I suppose this pos will have to do...

curved edges very reminiscent of the older Galaxy Edge phones-I had an LG V30 a few years ago,and for the most part,that one was a great phone,so this one looks like a bit of an upgrade,display looks good too

I got my lg velvet second hand last month and I'm happy to say that it's the best , I didn't get the double screen but I use my 43 inch android TV as a second screen and it works great, I'm able to beam all the phone's app on the TV full screen. 👍

Hello I have an LG velvet and got Android 13 here in Canada, nice video.

The chipset is what killed it for me and not to mention the flagship price they were asking for even tho the phone had midrange specs

I hate how everytime I unlock this phone using the in-display fingerprint scanner, the screen goes black except for the fingerprint icon. Idk why it bothers me but it does 😅

I purchased the Velvet 5G earlier this year at a price of $150, and I'm thoroughly enjoying its features.

I don't know if I bought a faulty device. I bought the t-mobile variant. However, the battery isn't as good as I thought. It looses 5 percent of battery with sparse browsing within an hour. And that's with extended battery saver on, and brightness set to 12%. Is this normal battery drainage for the phone? [...]

Just got the velvet with the dual screen and I must say, it's absolutely gorgeous. I only have one worry, that's the dual screen's hinges. Have you had any wear on the hinges through the months? [...] Should I get a spare dual screen if I am able to find one at a decent price? [...]

For me, Juan's review is a breath of fresh air in support of the many unbiased reasons why I made my choice to go with the LG Velvet. [...] and I eventually chose the LG Velvet, a mid-level phone. At a Verizon special price of $140 for the phone and an LG price of $180 for the Dual Screen... I feel I have been fortunate and found excellent value in a solid package that meets my current needs. [...] A great & comforting review, Juan!

I love the way u go hard for lg cause people really be trying to do them in and I've owned a few of them last one being the v30 and before that was a g4 and although I had the loop issue I wasn't giving up so I found a way around it and never had another issue besides that I'm waiting on my velvet now coming from iPhone 11 and I cant wait to get it

[...] My brother in law helped to set my mom's one up (she is 85) and phoned me to order himself one too ( we got them all with dual screens). [...] LG VELVET IS THE BEST PHONE BUY FOR 2020 , PERIOD

god I love where LG is heading, I've been rocking an LG phone since the g3 and despite their issues I have never been able to switch to samsung or apple and I finally am feeling vindicated in sticking around for so long. My biggest issue with the dual screen is that it's not left hand friendly. I know we're not a huge chunk of the population but it'd be nice to have the option to get a left handed dual screen case for those of us who would actually make use of it.

Me make algorithm happy and post comment. My comment is this.... I've had this phone for 10 days now and the day I was allowed to install a SIM this became my one of my daily drivers!

[...] Have been using LG since the G2. [...]

I'm a LG consumer..Can I have a cup of coffee too? LG Velvet is coming to town and I am whaiting for mine.Friend, i promise to say something about the performance.Ciao🙏✨🌹

Good evening, I have a pixel 3a xl and I'm interested in this lg velvet, what do you think about the cameras? Is it worth the change in all aspects considering audio,battery, screen and cameras?

I already have LG v30 in India and I am planning to upgrade to LG velvet- snapdragon 845 4g version only for the bigger screen, looks and slightly better processor. Will this be a improved camera upgrade or worse downgrade. Please suggest.

I have an LG v60 but it's stuck on android 10 😢. Love it but wish I had the updates.

I got this phone back when it first came out and it started glitching and I was forced to update to a google pixal 7 liked my LG way better.
