Excellent hardware that fits well in my hand, superb 4.7″ True HD IPS+ display, speedy Qualcomm S4 Pro Quad-core processor, Quick Memo is a handy screen snap and note taking app, excellent battery life
Camera is not good in low light without a flash; Q slide is gimmicky; ships with Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0.4) rather than Jelly Bean (Android 4.2)
The LG Optimus G I've had a love-hate relationship with Android for some time; I'm not sure exactly when it started, but I think that it was around the time that I realized that just because an app was available, it didn't mean I could necessarily instal...

Sharp Design, Great Build Quality, Gorgeous Screencolors/brightness/viewing angle/resolution, MicroUSB charging, Very Fast–Processing and ATT Data, Amazing Battery, LG Enhancements are useful and pretty, The
No Dedicated Camera Button, No Removable Battery, No Jelly bean yet
On paper, the LG Optimus G is as good as it gets for Android; it has every spec you could possibly want. In-hand, it definitely lives up to it's potential. As long as you're okay with a very large handset, you'll be happy. Even with large hands, it ca...
Great performance, Slick design, On-screen doodle function, Inbuilt NFC & Miracast, LTE support
Poor viewing angles, Dated Android 4.0.4, No Google Wallet support, Loads of AT&T bloatware, 13MP camera found on global variant
Beyond the high performance though, things get a bit murkier. If you're in the market right now for a phone like the Optimus G, then you are -- by default -- in a market that includes the Nexus 4. Strangely, that phone is also crafted by LG, and in practi...

Great screen, Fast performance, NFC tags included
Disappointing camera, No MicroSD card slot on the Sprint version, HDMI only via MHL connection, Nonremovable battery
The LG Optimus G isn't a bad smartphone: it's fast, has a lot of storage, a good screen, and a decent (albeit not extraordinary) battery life. However, the two biggest features that are intended to make it stand out of the pack — the quad core processor a...

Fastest Android smartphone on the market, by a longshot, Wonderful display, Sleek design on the Sprint/world model
Eco mode is more than what users should have to handle; when off it reduces battery life significantly and the phone overheats quickly, Camera is mediocre, AT&T version has significantly worse aesthetics and feel
The Optimus G is an impressive smartphone in many, many ways, but it has one critical flaw that is a major blunder: Eco mode. Best-in-class performance is a great thing to have, but the beauty of smart devices like smartphones and tablets is their ability...

Abstract: I have used quite a few smartphones over the past few years, but never had the chance to test out LG products until my recent T-Mobile Optimus L9 review . For the past couple of weeks I have been using an excellent device, the AT&T LG Optimus G. This is t...
Abstract: First let me start off by saying I have never owned a LG phone and I know I'm not alone, when have you ever seen anyone say ” Did you see that new LG phone that came out? I can't wait to get it” not many. In the past the phones just looked cheap and bulky...

With the Optimus G, LG has crafted a phone that's more than capable of competing with the market leaders. While the phone falls slightly short in some aspects, such as battery life and not allowing expandable memory, its sheer performance capabilities ...

between the speed, build quality, industrial design and awesome screen, the LG Optimus G is a real winner in my opinion. While I haven't given up my iPhone 5 quite yet, I'll be using the Optimus G as my preferred handheld gadget for surfing the web, vie...
Abstract: A phone's camera can make it stand out from the pack, and the Optimus G's 8 MP camera with 360-degree panoramic capture does more than take great photos. It takes pictures by voice command.Your subject simply says "cheese" or "whiskey" or one of several o...
