I may swap S7 edge (dual sim version - SM-G935FD) for V20 H990 (dual sim, dedicated microSDXC slot version)

I also want the v20
How you thinking of purchasing it, via Amazon and third party forwarding ?

No, just directly on eBay and then Fedexed directly to me.

Has anyone been able to get this phone on the advertised special of R10999? Vodacom wants R12000+ cash price

Okay waited long enough
What is your overall opinion on the v20
Better than the s7 range?

Battery on the S7edge is better.
Samsung's screen is better, but I still like the look of the LG's screen as well, just gives me that "somthing different" you need.
The fingerprint reader on the LG is better, because you don't have to press it, in order for it to start reading your finger, you just touch.
The S7 feels faster, but LG has always been known to make their animations a little bit slower to make make the transitions feels "buttery"-smooth.
Camera wise, I think the LG is oh so very slightly ahead, but the difference in margin is tiny.
Even though the V20 is heavier, for some reason it feels lighter. Don't ask me to explain that one.
I prefer the bigger screen on the V20 and really don't miss the edge of the S7.
I love the extra functionality that the 2nd screen gives on the V20, as opposed to the lacking Always-on display of the S7.

Doesnt seem like many people have the v20, only you and Rochaza post... Quiet sad

WRT the weight, the S7 Edge may feel heavier as it packs the weight in a smaller footprint vs. the V20 which is larger and spreads out the weight much mover evenly, LG had a larger area to better spread it around.

Sad that the marketing is letting lg down... That is a good device yet its not getting the credit it deserves.... Mayb after the g4 bootloop issues and the failure of the G5... People are mayb more cautious

LG are becoming like Sony when it comes to marketing; when they have a great product they market it poorly, when they have an average product they go all out, just so weird.
I keep hearing ads on radio, marketing that awful LG Stylus 2, when they have the damn V20. Its like BMW marketing the 116i more than the 135i. Halo products are what get people to look at you, especially amongst all the Galaxy and iPhone clutter, and even Huawei are getting very handed with their marketing.

Agree... Huawei is making a good name for themselves.
Lg need to either pull finger or get out of the mobile game.... Its shocking

I prefer the LG OS over the Huawei one though, it's the only thing stopping me from upgrading to a Huawei phone come upgrade.
