LG Velvet with DualScreen review
Ғылым және технология
The LG Velvet is an upper mid-range smartphone with LG's DualScreen which so far has been reserved for more expensive devices. That's not to say this phone is cheap but none of the midrange 5G smartphones is cheap anyway. Join us as we take an in-depth look at the LG Velvet's top features, build and screen quality, battery life, performance, and camera image quality in a short and sweet video.

LG really outshone itself in terms of innovative technology with the dual-screen integrated LG Velvet. I never thought that we would have such futuristic devices on our hands in such an accessible manner. I personally love the camera design as well - the rain drop pattern is not only unique but adds a different style aspect to the phone as well.
The LG Velvet has such impressive name and design. OLED Screen and USB-C cable speaks excellent security. Its slim design is easy on hand for anyone regardless of gender and age. As time progressed smart phones at its solid-state design got stronger and each user have gotten more familiar to their phone.
"The LG Velvet takes the cake" 😆 I see what you did there, Will. Great review as usual

The quad dac was the thing making LG phones special
i love your review, it is smartphone review! main focus is to better detail the smartphone specs for people who really want to get info about a specific smartphone!
This smartphone has all the features that one would love to have and the dual-screen in this is the best thing. One of my friends has this smartphone and I take it to play games regularly. Tell you what, the smartphone does really well in terms of its performance and the battery backup is also quite good.
You guys are the best ever
1:35 the video called Morocco 4k .. watch it on a TV and feel the spiritual vibe👍🏻
What's the song in all your videos on the sound test part. Really like it. Would appreciate a response
Hi. Does the phone record 4K 60 fps with it and does bluetooth support Ldac?
Does the dual screen charger adapter still work with android auto when plugged in
how can i get the android 11 update for my lg velvet 5g u+ korean variant in other country?
Hi. When SIM card 1is on 5G network, the othe SIM card 2 is working on 4G or is being disabled (like the Poco F2 pro is disabling the sim card 2). Thanks
Good review. Is that battery test done with the dual screen case on or as a standalone phone?
great review
It is anyhow for me the dual screen case. For my LG velvet. Please let me know.
How are quality sound since Quad DAC is missing?
is every lg velvet dubbel screen, or not i like to buy one , soon, any know where the best price is, im in Greece now.. Help
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? Did anyone notice this when theirs was new?
I like LG's. They're not as expensive as other phones and they hold up pretty well

LG is no longer making phones
Hope LG would do the same to the next high end line. Bacause i would gladly fly to hongkong just to buy it open line. LG left our local market last year.
Hello. Can I pls know when LG will release the unlocked version of the LG V60 thinq. We will love to buy that phone in Ghana.
The dual-screen feature by LG has probably gained more headlines that anything it ever delivered and now that LG Velvet is in the market, I think the other brands might revise their strategies a bit. Powered by Snapdragon 845 processor, I think this smartphone will surely be a great seller in India and hoping that LG would use the competitive pricing strategies as they did in the past.

That’s the 4g version
I'm getting this with free dual screen and self-hygienizer air buds, I think it's a good deal! I'm a bit worried about the cameras though :(
I broke my brand new moto 5g ace so I decided to try this since they are so cheap now. its going to be here in a day or two. I would love to get the sunset version and even the second screen but they are nowhere to be found. I opted for the mediatek version it rates 46% better versus the snapdragon for some odd reason? So it makes it on par with the lg v50 thinq. which is right bellow the v60 so I thinQ I chose right? great review man, i appreciated it. I always use GSMarena for my tech specs, I never knew you guys did YT channel though. so SUBSCRIBED
This phone now goes for around €400-450 which doesn't put it up against most flagship phones in the €600-650 range while still offering 5G and Wireless Charging support, rated IP68 (water resistance), and of course an audio jack + expandable memory slot. I don't think there's a real alternative if you're looking for those features in a upper mid-range phone. Other mid-range phones do offer better cameras (Pixel 4a) and sometimes a better CPU/GPU but without most of the other features I previously mentioned.

Would have liked this phone to go head to head with the best ones. It's not bad though, but it lacks the same level of fine things the top flagships have. The design is the standing feature, that's a good start.
If the velvet is a midranger to you,than where do u put my a50?
I just paid off my samsung A50 do you think it is a good idea to get this phone over what I am using?

Please,i need LG V60 review
which is better OLED or amoled
Why would they remove the quad dac!!!???
Is this better than the Samsung A71?
Pretty cool
For me, the reason why I would want to buy the V60 is because of its camera performance. That's not to say the Velvet's camera is bad, it's just not on par with the V60. The reason why I would want to get the Velvet is because it's way cheaper than the V60 with DualScreen case and its design. Not gonna lie, the Velvet is a seriously good looking phone.
This year quite tough , maybe next year would be great year to spend money to buy new phone.

Most of the carriers here you can get the V60 for literally half off or buy one get one free or the screen case added free,but that's just one option. Even ebay is priced way below for new devices through these wholesalers. That's why I don't get it with the pricing structures with LG especially. As usual 2 months after they release a phone it's dirt cheap and priced close to the same as a new device but better specs

Lets say its an aesthetic oriented phone
Just came over from Sony to LG as Sony withdrew in my Country. This phone is amazing and will surprise all the nay sayers. We bought 3 in our family and everybody is very happy. To all the specifications chasers, realize that this chip set is well implemented and so outclasses many phones with better chip sets. This is a trick I learnt long ago with Sony vs Samsung. Samsung always better on paper, but in real life the Sony beats it with speed. Go and look on YTube at the test of the LG V60 vs Samsung S20. LG beats it! Now learn to read between the lines. Also on YTube , V60 vs Velvet speed test. The difference is milliseconds ! The Velvet is an Amazing phone . 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). Take a guess what phone he just got? Samsung S20! and he likes the Velvet more. LESSON.....Stop buying phones on specifications and reviews , go and experience it yourself! LG VELVET IS THE BEST PHONE BUY FOR 2020 , PERIOD
This is a great phone. The review is looking more of an advertisement to me. Watching from an older LG (stylus 2)phone here.
