LG G5 review: An interesting idea, shoddily executed

On paper, the LG G5 seems like a great device. There’s an innovative modular design that gives you both a removable battery and an aluminum unibody enclosure. It’s got the usual high-end 2016 flagship specs: a Snapdragon 820, 4GB of RAM, and a 5.3-inch 1440p display. All the little extras seem to be there too: a microSD slot, a USB Type-C port, a fingerprint reader, and an IR blaster.
