So long as you have a quality set of headphones/earplugs to plug into it, then this is an amazingly high "audiophile" quality DAC add-on attachment for the LG G5 (be extra certain however, that it is suitable for your G5 model... It works perfectly with the H850 version, however some phone versions sold in the US and possibly elsewhere are unsuitable for most of the "LG Friends" attachment options). Crisp in clarity with punch when it is appropriate, provided that you are actually listening to HD video tracks or high bitrate lossless audio codec files such as FLAC or APE and others of their ilk (rather than the pure junk quality of mp3 garbage files) in conjunction with a quality wired headset, then this Bang & Olufsen attachment makes a HUGELY positive difference to your listening experience. The potential and most probable downfall for people that find this B&O AFD-1200 fails to fulfill their expectations very likely rests entirely upon whether they have also met the necessary quality demands on NOT ONLY their choice of analog listening device, but also the frequently, severely, overlooked aspect of choosing a high quality audio source. For those discerning folk whom pay serious attention to such details and refuse anything below CD quality lossless audio files (with a strong preference for much higher grade audio sources), this attachment is a dream come true considering its price and convenient simplicity when slotting into easy replacement for the generic base of their LG G5 mobile phone (which is the intended primary market function of this device, regardless of its ability to be also used as an in-line headset unit on computers and other non-G5 mobile devices). One factor that also should be pointed out for those that will indeed be using the AFD-1200 as a permanent replacement for the stock base unit on their LG G5 is the size difference: This attachment is larger than the original base shipped with the phone! Being slightly longer means that any fitted case specifically designed for the generic G5 phone WILL NO LONGER FIT those carefully designed phone cases or wallets when this attachment is added. In fact, you will likely find yourself having to stand in store and test several cases designed for similarly sized phones, and very likely make sacrifices as regards the camera aperture openings in order to retain button and fingerprint scanner access since most cases will no longer align because +95% of the available case options for the longer handset were never designed nor intended for the G5 phone model. You might be lucky if you find the right retailer that just happens to have a case in stock which matches perfectly to the new size and layout, however I would not hold such high expectations. Personally, I settled for the obvious importance of button access, and must now remove my phone from its case in order to utilise the rear camera (which is not such a bother for me, as I most often switch out modules and utilise the CBG-700 LG Cam Plus when I intend on making heavy use of the rear facing camera functionality). If you do not use a phone case or wallet, then all of this is of course useless information.Read full review

For sensitive ears and a good pair of headphones this thing is wonderful! Every sound is more vibrant and punchy. The soundscape is more spacious and refined. I used to buy standalone players but hoped great dacs/amp would come out in phones and now it as... Of course it's less troublesome to have it in the phone like the Quad dacs in the V20 but hey! I only spent 200 for the phone instead of 800$. And only spent 60$ on this DAC so, money well spent i think...

The first delivery never came. The second delivery came quickly. The module is well packed, original, in a box and accessories. With LG 5, the sound is better! But does not work with wireless headphones. Also I could not use it with my phone. Overall satisfied.

You need to remove and start the USB cable in Windows 10. Or you should reboot after an error. The product also has a lot of heat. If the temperature rises too much, stop operation and put it on the cooler. All of these disadvantages are also recommended. I am satisfied with only music performance.
