I'm not against covers and case. I use to use them all the time. What I think now is, we pay big $ for The phone and part of that is for the design and beauty of it. Why cover that with a ugly case if we pay for insurance too. Plus these phablets are big enough why make it bigger.

 
True, I dislike making a phablet even bigger, but I have to make sure my phone works even after a drop and that it lasts long enough to afford the expense.

I like the design of this phone and most other phones. I think they just look better without an ugly case on. Kinda like taking a brand new fancy looking car and sticking one of the leather bras on the front.

This phone is also massive already, a case would only make it larger. Ive always really careful with my electronics anyway.

 
Cases are less pleasant but safer in the long run, similar to seat belts in a car.
 
The V10 looks fairly rugged on its own (has some IP/military drop spec) so the case will only add to that. Guess I care more about safety/functionality than appearance.

For all cellphones in general I'd get a transparent case and use that for about year. Can't help it, I baby all my gear. And I have a toddler in the house.
 
I let it go naked after the warranty's up. By then scratches and small bumps won't matter.

I hate adding a case, especially on a beautiful device, but not nearly as much as that $175 deductible. That was for Notes, maybe this device is a little cheaper.

Don't know how much deductible is either but the V10 is already $100 cheaper than a Note 5. Was able to get my V10 with a $100 off coupon plus I'll be able to get the free 200gb micro sd card and extra battery through LG.
 
If it sounds as good as the reviews, makes it a steal compared to how much companies are asking for standalone android daps. Plus the V10 has 4 gigs of ram compared to 1 or 2 gigs in more expensive daps like the Fiio X7 and the ZX2.

Only downside of this are the speakers

Yeah, I wish LG had put a large, front-facing speaker on it. Plenty of room at the bottom front but I believe that's where the ESS chip and amp reside (saw interview with LG engineer saying he wanted the dac/amp chips there so they'd be close as possible to the headphone out for less interference). So perhaps not enough room inside for a larger speaker despite the phone's large size.

Dolby atmos increases speaker volume for music. Works well, good enough to hear in my morning shower.

 

[gr8soundz]

Don't you have to root the phone to be able to install V4a and Dolby?
 
Tested installing V4a on my unrooted Note 3 but it needs another app installed first and that app needs root access to work.
 
Don't plan to root my V10.

Unfortunately, yes.

Hello Guy's
I'm from Poland, yesterdey my LG V10 arrived to me.
I'm very happy with this phone, one of the best i ever have .
But, there is one issue that i have with the ESS Dac (Hi-Fi mode).
I only play music with the stock player. Now, when i plug headphones that have low impedence (max to 50ohm, like my Sony XBA-H3 or B&W P7) the toggle Hi-Fi off/on don't change enything! Now difference with volume or quality... but, when i plug headphones that have more Ohms, like my Sennheiser PC High model, have maybe 200ohm, then when i toggle on/off Hi-Fi i hear BIG difference with volume and sound quality! Some One of Yiou guy's have the same issue? Please respond, this is big trouble for me :/.
Thx for advise.
 
PS: sorry for my English, i know is not perfect

 

[Slaviola]

Aha... my model is HK version, H961n.

Could it be the adaptive amp/pump feature? Basically, the amp can tell how much resistance is in the headphones and adjusts the volume/current to compensate. That may be why some headphones don't sound so loud while others do? Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Not if you use a transparant case. Ringke fusion black looks really sick on it.

...That's twice now... But I'm stubborn
