I wouldnt chance this - LG T&Cs state specific retailers and Ebay/Technolec_UK are not on there. Yes ebay protection might help, but probably not worth the chance

it's really a nice smartphone but the processor is little bit backdated so best of luck maybe someone waiting for this. :smile:

I'd be nervous of the Bootloop issue with this phone, and LG have shown they're not fond of warrantys

Does this suffer from a bootloop issue? My LG G4 had this so I'd assumed they would have fixed this in the newer models.

Why would you worry about that if you have a two year John Lewis warranty?

Second this comment, too many LG phones suffer with bootloop issues. My G4 was with repair centre for 2 months, I rang every week and was told to call back the next week, appalling.

Third the comment. LG G4 was by far one of my fave handset to date until it died. LG didn't want to know about it.
Never again LG, out of principle I will never buy from them again.

I was lucky, my phone was rooted and they still covered my bootloop issue under the warranty. They did the same for my sister too who also has a G4.

I'm sorry but having read your comments above .... You're telling everyone that you Allowed the Repair Centre to keep Your phone for 2 Months...or 56 Days...? And you Allowed them to do this..? Surely after a reasonable Time Span...shall we say 14 Days of Not having your Phone - that was being Repaired - due to their Fault..You didn't take Further Action to either have your Phone back Repaired or Replaced...their is a Compensation issue here that would have been Addressed if it were me...The Small Claims Court & a £25 Summons for starters...I just don't understand how some people tell the world(as you described) and yet don't seem to do much....Come On..

That right there is some weird capitalization, and half way through you seem to move into Pidgin English. Anyway, I doubt an English court has much sway over a Korean company

LG had my monitor for 3 months before ultimately failing to repair it due to discontinued parts and issuing me a refund. However for the entire 3 months I was continually assured that the fix was imminent and it would be back with me soon, had to call them each week only to be fobbed off with another excuse. Easily one of the worst customer services experiences I've ever had with any company in my whole life. I was simply being lied to over and over and the fight I had to put up to get the refund was beyond belief

Samsung had my s7 edge for 6 months in repair , worst customer service ever.

Unlucky. My Nexus 5x came back in 5 days including weekend. But they gave us big reason to think 10 times before buy next lg device.

I'd be more nervous about the easy cracking lens on this. Not covered by warranty.
Cracked rear glass but its still a cracking good phone.
Will get a case to hide the cracks.

They were great with me... 18 months after purchasing the handset... and they fixed and returned it within a week! Amazing service for me personally!...

I had a g4 with bootloop an did a RMA with LG. LG G5 has a common GPS aerial issue. (Soon to RMA) and g6 is plain and simple a g5 with a different screen resolution. Which I am not willing to pay for. Will see what the g7 looks like!

Similar to the Motorola + headphones deal earlier in the week. Bundling something people want with something no one wants and charging the price of the thing people want is NOT a deal. Cold.
