LG's new V20 smartphone has a relatively unique feature-set that you won't find on many other premium Android phones.

While some of these features are nice to have, LG seems to be avoiding requested features that helped catapult the Galaxy S7 into the top spot - like water-resistance, a beautiful design, and a camera that challenges (and beats) the long-time champion of smartphone cameras, the iPhone.

Still, the V20 is a solid phone, but it feels like it's designed for a niche group of people who are holding onto legacy Android features that are losing their importance.
