Thanks @Nikt! If you are needing any volunteers to help test drive it, I'll put my hand up hahaha (cheeky but got to ask 
).

I see that LG have confirmed the 16th of November for release via JB Hi Fi Australia. Should we expect a similar timeframe in NZ?

NikT: Can’t wait to show you guys the promo we’ve been working on. No spoilers, but I will say it’s immensely satisfying to put together an offer I’d gladly take up myself.
LG have been kind enough to send us a unit, so any questions, fire away.
Battery life? How's the screen look? Any trace of screen discolouration issues that were seen when it was first released? Will you be bringing in accessories like cases, screen protectors, wireless fast chargers and if so when?
Ohh I could ask so many questions, but the boss expects me to work not be mucking around in forums..Damn him
Opps, forgot to add...Thanks in advance

Battery life is shockingly good so far. New phone to be fair, but I've loaded it up with my usual app/data suite including Exchange and it belts through a full workday and evening with ease, even when using the Quad DAC for extended periods (I like the Quad DAC very much, it can merrily power extremely demanding headphones like the Sennheiser HD650). I've yet to go to bed with below 40% left, although it is to be fair not my primary device. The Snapdragon 835 impressed me on the OnePlus 5 so I'd expect an even better performance here with newer drivers et cetera. The only phone I have ever actually gotten two days out of
Screen I like a lot, much more than I was expecting to given the brouhaha around the Pixel 2 XL. There's a full range of customisation options for screen colour, including preset modes for movies/photos/web browsing + an option to set your preferred screen resolution as 720p/1080p/1440p. Given the S8 series comes as 1080p by default, I've set my V30 to that too, as outside of Daydream VR I'm happy with 1080p over 6". Have set a custom colour temperature I'm very pleased with. Loads of options for the always-on display too, including a nifty half-red clock I'm fond of.
Yes, accessories are a go. V30 uses Qi wireless charging so is cross-compatible with everything that charges iPhone 8/X and Galaxy S. Cases are on the way. Screen protectors TBC as curved screens are a real pain to get right.
The 6" 18:9 form factor is what I was most keen to experience given it'll be used for a large number of devices going forward as an effective replacement for 5.5", e.g. Pixel 2 XL, OP5T, HTC U11+, OPPO R11s. It's a great form factor and the little extra bit of width makes it much more comfortable for my usage than the S8+ was.
