Such a shame this isn't available officially in the uk. Specs are perfect for what I want.

Agreed, I have a note 4 and having a few issues with it so need something else and the V20 looks the best upgrade but not keen on a grey import especially with LG's recent track history.

Have they sorted the woeful battery performance that the V10 suffers from? Suspect not given they've increased the screen size and only increased the battery to 3200 mah.

is it worth an extra £40 to upgrade to the G6?

They're both similar devices, both have 5.7in displays but the LG G6 is physically smaller and its display is 18:9 rather than 16:9, the V20 has a secondary display on top of the main display. The LG G6 has a weather sealed body with a non-replaceable battery while the V20 isn't weather sealed but it's one of the last flagship phones to have a replaceable battery. The G6 has had a much wider release than the V20 which could mean user support is better as there should be a lot more of them out there whereas I find the V20 forums are generally comparatively quiet.
Personally I'm considering the V20 for the replaceable battery particularly as the current rumours are pointing to the V30 having a sealed design similar to the G6. However having to buy the V20 as a grey import and the quieter user forums are big black marks against it, the cheaper price is making it a more difficult choice.
Thanks John, food for thought.
I'm edging towards the G6 due to the upgraded CPU....

There isn't much difference in the processors, the 821 is a slightly higher clocked version of the 820 but that's pretty much it - you need an 835 to get a proper upgrade.
I haven't used either phone although if the replaceable battery isn't a requirement, I'd probably go for the G6.

The V20 is a media beast and if you're that way inclined its the way to go.
Any battery wows are negated by the fact you can swap the battery out in seconds
It's crazy price for a 8 month old Flagship device which is the best media device bar none and tempts me even more as the price falls fortnightly.
