Great Cam for ATT version LG G5

The CBG-720 is the AT&T variant for CAM PLUS. Not to be confused with the CBG-700 which works with almost all other carriers. This allows me to use a dedicated camera button and hold my phone in a more natural shooting position. It works great and was immediately recognized by my ATT phone (H820). It also adds about 1000mah of battery life. For the price , it was a great dedicated camera option for vacation, birthday party , etc. Due to the bulk I won't be using it full time, only when I plan on taking lots of pictures.Read full review...

Can be useful. Makes sense only at a discounted price.

Here are points from my usage:
o Provides extra 1200mah battery.
o Does not improve shooting experience much. For me boils down mainly to auto prefocus ability with a button.
o When attached charges the phone even when it is completely full. After that depletes and becomes unusable. Could not prevent from doing this.
o Makes phone charging slow. Input max 500ma vs 1800ma without it.

Worth playing with for the discounted price. Maybe useful but power banks are more versatile.
CBG 720 also works for Canadian H831 G5.Read full review...

Little Bit of Extra...

This Product gives some quick camera functionality and a little bit of extra battery juice. To people already swapping batteries instead of plugging in this is of little help. You cannot charge it outside your phone. and when its fully charged it slowly discharges keeping your battery reading at 100% until gone then discharges your swap-able battery. Creates a little awkwardness in the way its weighted and would be much better with a 20-30 dollar price tag.Read full review...

Works as designed with a few drawbacks

This camera grip / battery pack does its job but I have a few issues with it. The zoom wheel is too "loose" and I often bump it accidentally, causing me to switch between cameras on the G5 when I don't mean to. Also, sometimes the slide button to turn on the camera doesn't respond to the first press. Also it seems that the half-press on the shutter button always focuses in the center of the frame, which is not very useful.

All in all, at a steeply discounted price, it is worth a try if you think you might like it.Read full review...

Works great with compatible AT&T lgg5

When you purchase the cam plus modular friend for your lg g5 be sure its the version that's compatible with your LG G5 phone. I have the AT&T unlocked lg g5 and this friend works great. And the price and shipping time cannot be beat. Love it !!Read full review...

Great add on..

I don't know why people hate or talk bad about this product...
It's awesome.. I love it.. Not just it helps with camera controls.. It also gives my phone almost 40% extra battery and a nice grip while holding.. Because of extra weight at the bottom the phone does not flip from your hands..Read full review...

$70 MRP is a little crazy for this small accessory

I got it $8 and it well worth for a trip taking many photos. However, you don't need it everyday.

Not bad

Does what it's supposed to albeit in a not so user-friendly manner. At it's current price, it's not too bad a deal. Buy it for the novelty of it all if for anything else because it does work. However this is definitely not a must-have item. You'll be fine without it.Read full review...

Awesome add-on

Great price for this lg g5 cam plus controls. It has a internal battery that charges up your battery and just the right amount of grip when holding the phone. Just stinks you need a whole other case for it. Otherwise good piece of equipment.Read full review...
