It has a newer build design, display, camera system, and much-improved computing performance. But does it really compete with other smartphones in the range? In this post, we have shared LG style 6 reviews to help you with the ‘Buy it or skip it’ question.

The LG Stylo 6 is nothing like the previous-gen models. It’s a completely new design with a much-improved screen, better color saturation, more brightness nits, and pixel density.

It is so sleek and well-polished that one can easily misunderstand this for a 2020 flagship smartphone. The Stylo 6 packs a massive 6.8-inches IPS LCD screen with 1080×2460 pixels. The screen has a density of 395 nits with an 82.5% screen to body ratio.

Now some of you may have a hard time using this smartphone because it has a massive screen compared to the previous model. With its boxed layout and gigantic screen, it feels like you’re holding a brick. But considering that most 2021 stylus-based smartphones are of a large screen, we can make an exception.

The overall quality of the screen is great, the color accuracy is perfect along with brightness contrast out-doors. You will have no problem using this smartphone in direct sunlight.


The phone build quality is manufactured from both plastic and NEG shock, which provide the same level of reliability as Gorilla Glass 3. The glass type back makes it prone to more finger prints. It has a horizontal-bar type camera system with a fingerprint sensor underneath.

The top of the smartphone is clear plastic, with a noise-cancelation microphone. The bottom edge of the phone includes a stylus port, a USB-C charging port, speaker grill, and a headphone jack.
On the left side, you’ll get a Google Assistant button (sort of like Bixby) and a volume rocker, as well as a hybrid Sim/microSD card slot.

On the right side, you will get a power button with a fine touch of clickable location.  The phone can stand a minor drop with a much higher resistance on the front-side.

Connectivity

The LG Stylo 6 is available through a number of carrier choices. We’ve tested both the LTE version and the 3G connectivity on this device and it worked surprisingly well. The Wi-Fi connectivity was also stable, and there was no network delay.

In terms of call quality, both the ear-piece and microphone worked well. We estimate that the upper ear-piece provides approx. 80db. For reference this digit is enough to make the sound on your ear loud, at the same time doesn’t leak it outside phone boundaries. The bottom speakers run at around 90db with a more wide-angle approach for the room.

Cameras

The LG Stylo 6 comes with a circular camera bump, which mounts 3 cameras and a true-tone LED flash. The camera mount features a 13 MP Wide PDAF, 5 MP ultrawide, and a 5 MP depth lens.


The cameras of style 6 perform like any other mid-range smartphone. In good light, the shots are crips, color-accurate, and there is more depth of field. However, the camera struggles to provide consistency in the low-light condition.
The 13 MP front-facing camera performs well in good light but struggles to provide consistency in low-light conditions.


Performance

The Style 6 packs Mediatek Helio P35 chipset with 3GB of Ram and 64GB of internal storage. Out of the box, you will get 41GB of usable storage. The performance is good and the transitions are smooth. However, if your aim is to go for performance, then this phone is not for you.
LG is also not good in terms of a software update, especially for the mid-range section. There are times when the phone felt slow because of a mediocre chipset and Ram management.

Battery

The LG Stylo 6 can easily handle day to day performance-based task without running out the juice. The massive 4000 mAh battery provided us with an on-screen time of 10+ hours at the end of the day. It can easily last for up to 2 days if you’re a normal user.

Stylus


One of the main highlights of this phone is the stylus. It’s the first smartphone lineup apart from the Samsung Note series that stayed consistent with the stylus from day one. The Stylus of LG stylo 6 is a thin slate, perfect for sketching or writing.
The software integration is also good for the LG Stylo 6. The palm rejection technology of the smartphone prevents it from further happening. There are plenty of options in the Stylus section that you can play around with.

Software

Out of the box, you will get Android 10 running on LG’s UX 9.0. This is a custom made skin that looks very much like Samsung’s One UI. It’s clean, simple and the majority of the settings are customizable.
As for future updates, there’s no news for Android 11. The chipset itself holds us to dream of the newer software update. However, the LG Stylo 5 recently got an Android 10 update so we are optimistic to get it shortly.

Price and Availability

The price of the smartphone varies from carrier to online retailers. The official price of the smartphone is $299.99, but you can get this as low as $ on selected vendors.

LG Stylo 6 Review – Final Update

The LG Stylo 6 is a complete redesign phone that competes very well with other smartphones in the lineup. It has a sleep and compact design, the screen is vibrant and the color accuracy is sharp.
The phone can be challenging for some individuals if you’re a performance-based user. Also, it has a larger screen. But if you set these things aside, you’ll get a beautiful looking phone with a stylus.
