I mentioned in other posts that I had a new LG G5 before I got the BLU 
(the G5 died withing three weeks).  I preferred LG phones to Samsungs 
over the years so I stuck with them.  I read a quote from an LG 
marketing person indicating that the G5 had adoptable storage.  I wanted 
that feature.  Others reported that the G5 does not have adoptable 
storage and they were right, it does not. However, it was pretty easy to 
format the SD card to get it to work as adoptable storage in the G%.  I 
had to use a couple of developer tools.  It worked fine.  Since the BLU 
Pure XL I have no has 64GB of internal storage, having adoptable storage 
isn't important to me any longer.
