LG G5 Cons:
Less battery capacity: Battery has always been an issue, and LG has surprisingly reduced the battery capacity from 3000 mAh in LG G4 to 2800 mAh in LG G5. We know, process and OS have been optimized for less battery consumption, but more battery capacity is always welcomed.
Always On Display Battery Consumption: LG claims that the AOD is using just 1% of the battery power each hour. Well it means 24% a day. By the way, AOD can be turned off from the LG G5’s settings.
Missing APP Drawer: There are some rumors that Google is going to delete the App Drawer in Android N and bring everything to the home screen. We have already seen it in Huawei phones and LG G5 is also missing the App Drawer, as well as the Galaxy S7. Unlike the Galaxy S7 which you can bring back the App Drawer, there doesn’t seem to be the same feature available for LG G5
No Adaptive Storage: If your device is running Android Marshmallow, you have the option to define your external storage as your OS main storage. So, your internal storage may exceed up to 200GB of storage. But LG G5 doesn’t support the Adaptive Storage and you have to live with it.(Update: It seems this feature is disabled by default, but you turn it On)
Modules are Gimmick? This is something we still doubt about it and we should wait to see what LG has prepared.
Speaking of Modules, the main disadvantage of the modules on LG G5 is the fact that you have to switch off your LG G5 each time you want to try a new module.
