Terrible retailer - avoid.

Price is getting closer and closer to my buy price of £250!

Which just goes to show how ridiculous review sites are. I know where I'd rather spend my money.

Well, how it went ? Still worth it ?

Seems to be showing a lower price for me than the original deal posted - cheapest is now under £388 with the £10 off code. Was it lower yesterday?

yes but that was with the 3% discount already included in the price. So they have increased the price as the 3% discount period is over but now you can use the discount code to lower it. Think it's overall the same price as I paid £390 for the platinum.
Just noticed black colour is at it's lowest price with discount

Same here. Price has gone up since yesterday

mine came today brand-new working great got Plusnet in SIM 1 ruining 4g and 3 in SIM 2 ruining 3g.

Mine's just been dispatched, 4 days after ordering

Any taxes to pay?

Getting mine delivered in about an hour by DPD - must say very fast service. Ordered on Saturday.

Did u pay for the insured shipping option, or opt for free delivery?

And what's it like?

How is it? Worth getting?

Just been delivered :smiley:

(y)

It looks like mine will be delivered via DPD tomorrow which is fantastic service! I have ordered items from many UK retailers that take longer than 4 days, touch wood the phone itself is fine :smiley:

Want the black one as the borders when viewing certain video content will become annoying with new aspect ratio

Just ordered one too via paypal.

First time I've ordered an Asian import phone or electrical product from China directly.

I double checked it and it should work all ok on EE.

Wonder if it will come quicker and come with shipping tracking details.

Just ordered mine through PayPal, I'll post updates as and when.

Just be aware, if you choose the V20 It might be difficult / impossible to source brand new, genuine batteries for it - unless you know otherwise, or willing to risk it with secondhand / generic batteries.

Had a shipped email overnight :smiley:

Took a punt on the Platinum version, Thanks OP :smiley:

I'm holding my breath sionyboy!

Let us know how u get on with eGlobal.

I have bitten. It's the phone I'm after for the other 'alf and this non UK version is the dogs bits. Thanks OP.

Eglobal currently have a 3 day 3% off flash sale, so the white model is now down to £391.87

Exactly my theory on the battery. Husband uses his phones a LOT and after a year they really go downhill and he always ends up upgrading early. I travel a lot and have three spare batteries so I never need to do the constant looking for a plug thing. I think this alone will make it the v20 for me.

Currently asking myself the same question.

G6
+ 821
+ Waterproof
+ Smaller

V20
+ Removable battery
+ Second screen
+ Larger screen

Removable battery is pretty important to me, not so much so that I can carry multiple around, but I know that after a year the battery will have degraded and I can easily buy a new one. With the G6 (or any sealed battery phone) you're a bit screwed when the battery life starts to drop off.

However... G6 is smaller, faster, waterproof and dare I say a better looking phone.

Course the other option is to cheap out and get a G5. :/

This or the v20? I haven't had any issues with LG customer service despite having to send my G4 back twice, and I would rather keep the removable battery feature in my next phone.

Just bought one. I know I won't get warranty from LG but it's worth the gamble for the price and the features mentioned above. I've bought from eGlobal before with no issues, but they sound hit and miss, so here's hoping.

Sounds like you need to trade him in for a more reliable model.

When you take into account the much higher cost (£600?) of the UK model, then this is much better imo. You're getting double the storage here & 2 extra features for £200 lower.

Never mind the warranty but wouldn't paying with PayPal/ credit card be safe? I they don't deliver you can always use charge back and get money back.

Hardly better than:

32GB is not a problem as it has microsd slot (up to 256 GB supported)... but I agree that 64GB would be handy.
How many people care for dual sim? Never had a need for it in 20 years..
Would you really hear difference between Uk version and the one with quad dac? or is it just a gimmick?

64gb storage (UK is 32gb)
Dual sim
Quad DAC

Main differences - this has 64Gb, dual-SIM & the quad-DAC. UK version only has 32Gb, single-SIM & no quad-DAC.

It have some better audio processor as far I know. Also EU version isn't a dual SIM I think.

What's the difference please??
How is this WAY better than Uk variant?

I'll upgrade my G4 once it gets to around £300

No duty to pay on eGlobal items?

Love my G4.

Ah, but you was in warranty. And I had the hairline crack issues which never really was resolved. And once out of warranty I barely got a reply or any help what so ever.

S8 is better, this is cheaper

Lg were great with my bootlooping g4 after 14 months. Collected and delivered back to me

They had other websites before. Stay away or at least use credit card.

as he says.... this or s8 ?

Having had to chuck an LG G4 in the bin, if it is down to the problem the others had it should be solved, dodgy soldering. However if it is a generic point about no warranty, then, point well made.

:smiley:

This or S8?

The cam is way better in the 6

My experience will LG G3 is the same, had the hairline crack issue 4 times, on the 4th time is was out of warranty.

The LG customer service is poor. They do not care one bit.

I have to say that I was impressed with Lg's customer service, my wife's 13 month old LG G3 had a problem and they collected it at my work and it was returned by courier a week later with 6 month guarantee on the repair.

Caveat emptor eGlobalCentral. Customer service takes 48 hours on average (excluding weekends!) to reply, and expect a 3 month turnaround when returning items that are faulty.

of this is a non eu version lg won't help you if anything goes wrong ( ie bootlooping).
still I'm tempted...

Yeh, I thought it was very good offer quit smoking, in return he gets a phone and saves money in future.

Yeh does my head in he smokes, he can't afford to smoke... He bought a vaping set few months back and he was alright on it, then come weekend he was in pubs and smoking just because drinking... I wasn't even there but knew he would and I sent him text and said you smoking I know and I'm not even there!

vodaphone gave 2 years warranty guys! so those who have a lg g4 from vadafone you may still be in warranty from lg

I wonder if my girlfriend would price match this offer!:smile:

This is an unbelievable price for such a new phone. I'm guessing LG UK won't honour any warranty?

Voted hot.

Everytime I see a deal for this phone I keep showing my boyfriend. He is desperate for one, I said if he quits smoking totally and doesn't rely on the ecig within a month of stopping I will buy him one.... He declined the offer. He's too much owing on current phone can't upgrade and can't afford to buy outright etc.

What's happened to my post

used them once, had a massive problem with them after my LG G4 boot looped. After six months of chasing them (with them "repairing" my phone in Hong Kong), and back and forth emails they sent me a refurbished Nexus 6p (Netherlands IMEI) with me paying a little extra. Never complained since. It seems that they get legit phones from countries like Korea, China, Indonesia etc.

so what happens if this bootloops like the other lg's? no uk warranty?

Shame this isn't the US version with wireless charging, the upgraded audio is obviously better than UK version though but I really want the wireless charging

These are the bands this model uses:

4G Network - FDD 2100(B1) /1800(B3) / 1700(B4) / 850(B5) / 2600(B7) / 900(B8) /700(B12)/ 800(B20) / 800(B26)/ 700(B28) MHz


4G Network - TDD 2600(B38) / 1900(B39) / 2300(B40) / 2600(B41) MHz

Perfect that worked, thanks :smiley:

What code?

I bought one a week ago for higher price. Arrived within 5 days. Brand new phone, dual pin charger with UK adapter, earphones, USB-C cable. You can use PayPal. They offer 12 months warranty on mobiles too.
This is Hong Kong version phone.
Getting 4G on Vodafone easily.

Price is getting closer and closer to my buy price of £250!

Used site lots. Bought iPads and iphones and Samsung phones. No problems ever.

Dodgy Site. So not worth it.

Which just goes to show how ridiculous review sites are. I know where I'd rather spend my money.

didn't they put a much worse camera in the g6 than the g5?

This is the Japan version with 3 pin plug

in the clearance deals??? it hasn't been out long has it?? :laughing:

is this the UK version?

These guys are horrific to deal with. Avoid at all costs

unbox your phone :wink:

Used this retailer a couple of times , once for a camera and another time for a phone . Both arrived within a week with no import duty to pay. As for warranty not sure as I don't keep my gadgets for more than a few months. Voted hot.
Way better spec than the uk variant and about £200 saving.
Don't forget quidco

Terrible retailer - avoid.

Check it has all the 4g bands for UK networks, these tend to be imported

Very tempting. Hot.

I was expecting worse...
Its rating is better than amazon.co.uk's
