If you manage to get one then let us know how you get on.
I know a Mobile Engineer who works at one of our big phone company's in Australia, he tests mobile phones and wouldn't advise anyone to buy a LG device.
I've seen a couple and to me they look very flimbsy compared to what's on offer from Samsung and Sony.
I do know that LG take shortcuts in the manufacturing process wherever they can but then again there are a lot of manufacturers that probably do that.
And - again a personal observation and this one is general - most of the people I've seen on lists with Android phones having problems seem to own a LG phone.
LG have launched a phone in Australia which is capable of receiving DAB+ Digital Radio broadcasts but I'm wary of this unit given its price of $425 Asutralian dollars, just sounds far too cheap for anything too good.
Actually getting the phone to receive DAB+ is probably easier than it looks, the phone already has a front end and antenna? All that needs to be don is to modify the SDR unit to receive the appropriate frequency's, I'm assuming of course that all phones now days use SDR units - SDR being Software Defined Radio -.
The other thing which occured to me when thinking about the new LG unit was that many - if not all - the DAB+ stations in Australia can be received over the Internet as is and in probably better quality most likely.
Anyway it will be most interesting to see how LG go with this phone, about time we had a phone that offered DAB+ radio.

Hi! I read from a Hifi newspaper i have that the LG G5 can be equipped with something they call LG Hifi Plus. It is equipped with a very good headphone amp from what i read. It is able to drive planar headphones from what i understand. It also has a 14 bit bluetooth apx interface. Seems like something i would invest if i can afford it. /A
