The verizon models are low as $200 if you don't care about not being to root or remove Verizon's bloatware.
There's a reason it's cheap and cheaper. Not v20 but Google for "LG V10 bootloop of Death". Reddit already opened a petition for LG to admit the problem.
Is there a specific way to trigger this? I've the T-Mobile version on Android 6.0 (bought for $350 in February) and have not experienced such a thing. Sporadic, random occurrences I assume? Am looking at the V20 once I can find it for around the same price, so hopefully the V10 holds up until then.
seems to be a hardware issue with some LG phones that might have to do with heat..but it def does happen according to a few searches.
the big question is, how common is this issue? maybe you wont have to deal with it but it is a little concerning for me since i just ordered one.

Heat eh? I don't game at all on mine. Hottest it gets is when recording video or watching youtube. Listening to music should be no problem at all. Perhaps I haven't pushed it to the point where the issues start triggering, and now I'll make sure I never do. :tongue_smile:
I have not had any even close to heat problems with V10.
Sometimes during heavy use and holding it directly with any case... but.... it does get warm.
A thin case fixes this properly.
It is nothing like my BlackBerry classic which ws a hard warmer in the winter and force shut off itself during the summer for overheating.
PS I make a point once a week minimum to review my HWMonitor Pro graphs. I am very confident i know what is using my battery.
It's just not the app that use the battery. There are many native processes and tasks run below, and the kernel itself sometimes can encounter deadlock which raises CPU to 100%. You can never be sure that you can stop that from happening.
It's widespread problem. Hundreds of people reported it here
