Do Not Buy a Phone From LG

[ArchangelMadzz]

So I originally got my phone contract in November 2016 for a Oneplus 3t.

Beautiful phone, worked perfectly, great battery life, great features, fast etc. Only complaints I had with it was no optimal image stablisation, but other than that it was basically perfect for well over a year. 

Now the phone screen smashed so I called my insurance from o2 to get it replaced the next day, they told me that they had none and it had been discontinued and basically it wouldn't be worth waiting for a phone so they gave me a list of phones to choose from.

Form what I remember the options were an LG G5, Xperia M3 and some other phone that was very low range. 

Naturally the LG G5 seemed like the better choice on paper as it had the best specs, large screen, 1440p display, OIS, dual camera etc. 

Boyyy was I wrong. 

Phone worked well for about a month or so but I instantly noticed that the battery life was terrible, I had to leave the house with a charger if I was out all day. 

So I'm about 5 months deep into having this phone and it's literally breaking apart inside. It's perfectly fine from the outside no major scratches, screen in perfect condition I've really looked after it but as of now this is the list of issues in order of happening.

Major device slowdown and Lag
Battery life getting worse
Major screen ghosting
Phone call microphone no longer works, only the louderspeaker microphone
I have bluetooth headphones I cannot use cause when the Bluetooth is on on this phone for longer than 10 minutes the wifi drops
Headphone jack doesn't properly handshake anymore
The fingerprint scanner literally doesn't work anymore, the only good consistent thing about the phone was the fingerprint scanner being very quick and responsive every time. it started rejecting and now it completely is unresponsive and the software has noticed this and has completely taken the option away in the settings.

Also the phone doesn't even have ANDROID N. It's still on 2016 software. Android P is being rolled out yet this phone doesn't even have Oreo. 

Safe to say I cannot wait till I am finally rid of this phone and will be picking up the OnePlus 6t as soon as it releases later this year (if the pattern continues).
