OP
Lol, doesn't matter how much research you do, if you had luck nothing can save you. I found a new hardware bug that was discovered a day ago. Without writing again, here's the review which I just posted on Amazon. Important part is bold.
After my Moto X 1st gen was crushed under a car, I needed to buy myself another Android. After weeks of research and using a cheap Micromax phone for the duration, ended up finalizing this bad boy. I knew it's shortcomings like bad front cam and non stock UI and also its strengths like wide angle cam, hardware, water proofing and Quad Dac. So I knew what I was going into.
Needless to say when I finally received the phone, I was on seventh cloud. The phone feels premium and works as expected. EXCEPT, the wide angle cam. One thing that wasn't discovered when I bought this phone was that the phone comes with 2 versions of wide angle camera module, one has poor image quality. One with 2.01 focal length and other inferior with 2.09 focal length. The wide angle pics taken from the 2.09 focal length camera has bad blurry on the edges. You can refer this reddit thread for details: LG G6 is produced with 2 versions of wide angle camera module, one has poor image quality • r/lgg6
Unfortunately I received a unit with bad focal length one, and I can't return it since return window is closed. But it's hard to recommend this phone now. Know this issue before purchasing the phone. If you still want to buy this phone check the focal length in image properties and return it if you find picture quality unacceptable.
