This phone is as fast as my LG G3, is very responsive and fluid, and easy to use. LG has made some minor tweaks to the Marshmallow OS, and some are great, some not so great. The great - you are able to use the apps launcher available on previous versions with the simple installation of an app from LG. I like being able to sift through my alphabetical list of apps. I find it the most convenient way to locate and launch an app, which is important when you have more than 50 apps installed. It also includes the new verbal Google "OK Google" search feature. This gives you a Siri-like assistant which helps free up your hands for other tasks. Now for the bad - LG left off two very important features when they tweaked the firmware and the OS for this phone. They have disabled the ability of formatting the SD card to be used for internal storage, and they are still preventing users from moving apps to the SD card. This was the #1 reason I switched to a Marshmallow phone, and was greatly disappointed to learn that LG made this less than customer-centric choice. My suggestion - beat down the doors of LG and demand a firmware update to fix this issue. 16GB of storage was a lot 5 years ago, but I use 22GB of the 32GB on my G3, so I'm now going to have to pare down my list of apps to transition to my new phone. Come on LG - give us some love!Read full review

I purchased my Lg X Power as a second phone to use in Mexico with Boost Mobile. Works great and has Android 6.0. The screen is good enough but the speakers aren't that great. On the hardware side the processor and GPU are good enough but you aren't going to play the latest AAA Android games on it,but you will be able to play most games with pretty good performance. In the gaming department I give it a 3.5/5. Also you NEED a screen protector and case with this device since its EXTREMELY thin and doesn't have a premium build. The battery life is great because of the massive battery. The back facing camera is serviceable, but not top of the line. This is basically a mid-range smartphone with most of the bells and whistles of Android and I would definitely recommend this smartphone.

This phone has a lot of good qualities, that I did look for in a phone, 1)Price 2)Storage 3)Screen Size 4)Android 5)Bluetooth 6)Battery Life. It is not without its flaws...the camera does not self focus, you have to go into the settings on the camera and choose which option of 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, will sharpen the image for you, not cool if you want to sneak a shot or just used to self focusing cellphone cameras. The very obvious flaw with the LG X Power, is its sound quality, it is not very noticeable every time I have used the phone but in the 12 days I have had the phone there have been definite sound quality issues that were very annoying and obvious only to me but not my caller. With that said, I am still content with my purchase of the phone because I wanted the larger screen and prefer to text....I have not paid attention to; if the sound quality was due to signal interference because of the multiple wifi and bluetooth using items connected to the surrounding devices, or any thing like that, but overall, I would happily tell others about the LG X Power and let them make their own choice as to purchasing one. Peace in 2017Read full review

I originally got a LS755 with a cracked screen, working still for 20$! I loved the phone so much I bought a brand new one so I could truly utilize this phone to its best potential. Don't get taken with super expensive phones, you'll likely never use the computing power anyway! LG Xpower has truly changed my view on LG phones, this phone it definitely one of my favorite in the last 10 years. Super fast, stable, good enough screen to watch almost anything. This is a phone you dont have to worry about so much either. If you lost it or break it, just go get another one! They are super cheap. Personally I can't believe they are this cheap for what you get!! The camera isnt the best, that was the only bad thing I could say. Its still works great though! LG way to go! College kids, if you are on a budget and you know you are... this is a nice phone!Read full review

It is a big upgrade in regards to the phone size, but I like it; I bought a pop socket and it has helped me grip the phone better and I feel more comfortable handling it. It has a great battery life but it does heat up fairly quickly. The interface is great. Without out the flash the picture quality is grainy. But overall it is a great phone!
