Great Phone!
One of the best phone I have ever used. The screen display is one of the best I have seen on a smartphone. The build is awesome. No problems with the battery life for good to average day use. Camera quality with AI Cam function is pretty good. No complaints so far.

Buy if you want to be a great LG troubleshooter
Do not buy this phone no matter what other reviews may say; unless you want constant frustration. I've hard reset the phone multiple times and still running on Android 9 and have NEVER received a single patch update, security update, and no one seems to be able to help and blame the other party - LG and AT&T - and don't bother trying to download the Bridge or PC suite offered by LG because they don't work on at&t phones, weird huh? Not really, both are garbage. I'll never own another LG product See more

Best LG Phone to Date
7 years ago
Well, I reluctantly switched from another big name manufacturer to LG due to so many hardware issues and horrific warranty support. So glad I did! This phone is a beast. It is incredibly fast and the screen is amazing. That along with the additional cameras checks all the boxes for me. It may be on the pricey side but AT&T runs some good promotions so be on the look out
Pros:
Screen to Body Ratio ++
Included Optical Zoom Camera
6GB Ram
Octacore Processor
Compatible w/ SD Card
Wireless Charging
Android++
Cons:
Battery Life is AVG. It's not poor by any means, but probably doesn't keep up with the Note
A bit pricey

Q: Will this phone be Volte compatible
5 years ago1 Answer
- A: Hi Tim0239. As the name suggests, Voice over LTE (VoLTE) is what happens when your carrier allows you to place a phone call over your LTE connection instead of the older legacy voice networks. Here in the U.S., most carriers have rolled out the red carpet for Voice over LTE. AT&T relied on a combination of LTE for data and HSPA+ for calls and would drop down to a 3G signal when talking to someone on the other line. With VoLTE, neither of these scenarios is necessary anymore. Most carriers refer to VoLTE as HD Voice for marketing reasons, as it points to its increased fidelity compared to a traditional cell call. Wi-Fi calling tech is nearly identical to HD Voice from the user's perspective in that it uses a Wi-Fi data connection to complete the call instead of LTE data. On the LG V40, you can ThinQ™ | AT&T, Model # LMV405UA use Wi-Fi calling to improve your coverage and to make phone calls over a Wi-Fi network when the network is available, but it does not have a setting for VoLTE...^IFV2 years agoHelpful?
