Great screen
Improved design
Immensely powerful
The interface is a huge improvement. The G3 lost a lot of the bloat that plagued the G2
And gained a few useful features. One big one is the smart keyboard that learns how you type the more you type. It also gives you the option of changing the size or o

The LG G3 has a great camera

When LG revealed the G3 to the world at its London press event
We were told that "simple" is the key ethos for the company's latest phone. We're not sure if that's really the case
As the sheer amount of tech stuffed into the flagship G3 is more than lik

The editors didn't like
Lightweight chassis isn't premium enough
QHD doesn't wow and could hurt battery
It's annoying that you have to take the back off to remove the SIM. And I have said the same thing for the G Flex
I really hate the placement of the volume rocker and power button on the back of the G3. It's annoying
And I feel like I'm always fumbling
Audio performance could be more exciting
Size won't be for everyone
Battery could be better
Screen needs to be brighter
Below-average battery
Some pointless software additions
It's SO big
Plasticky back cover
One-button control
Some unnecessary features
May be too large for smallhanded people
The new QHD display with its 2
560x1
440-pixel resolution is quite a power-hog
So the phone will barely last you a day without a charge
Knock On can cause issues with unwanted screen activation
Gets hot
Some scenarios tax the battery
Battery life good
But not G2-good
Metal look
But not metal feel
Screen not the brightest
A little large
Chassis is not real aluminium
Knock Code unreliable
Display drains a lot of battery when brightness is on max
Builtin speaker a bit disappointing
There's no question that the LG G3 is jampacked full of top tech
But that does mean it can get a little hot under the collar. We found that the Quad HD screen made the G3 run pretty toasty
Making for an uncomfortable phone in your pocket that sometimes
OverallThe LG G3 is a remarkable smartphone in many ways, and the screen is definitely one of its more notable features. The massive, 5.5” piece of glass does not only have an imposing size, but also a staggering resolution, which is sure to attract a lot...

Second fiddle is no longer LG's position. The years spent as an also-ran copycat mostly ended with the G2, and the continuation of those benefits into producing the G3 have confirmed that the company is capable of producing great works. The G3 is a wholes...
Abstract: The LG G3 is the best Android phone I've ever reviewed and one I can confidently recommend. In this LG G3 review, I'll explain why I was so pleasantly surprised by it and explain how it stacks up against the competition.The LG G3 is one review unit I'm go...

Big, beautiful 5.5" QHD Display, Solid general performance, Great camera performance with no fiddling, Innovative UI features like QSlide and Split Screen, Thin bezel, tight design for a 5.5inch device
Slightly slower overall performance vs other Snapdragon 801 designs, Occasional stutters rendering 2560 res, Softer overall battery life
Performance Analysis:The LG G3 offered up solid performance in many of our benchmark metrics, though it did trail a couple of other high-end smartphones on the market currently by small margins, when it came to graphics performance and memory-intensive ta...
Ultimately, I don't really have any complaints about the G3. I'm not the biggest fan of the rear button placement, but that's about the only thing I can immediately think of. The overall design is just average, though the bezels around the screen are some...
Abstract: The latest 2014 flagship smartphones from all major Android OEMs are now available, and it's always interesting to see how they fare against each other. Every flagship may have some key features in common, but also manage to offer something unique, be it ...
Abstract: The LG G3, the best Android smartphone? We'll have the LG G3 vs HTC One (M8), Samsung Galaxy S5, OPPO Find 7, and OnePlus One soon! The LG G3 packs a 5.5-inch 2K display, a Quad-Core SnapDragon 801 chip, 3GB of RAM, and a 13MP Camera with OIS (optical ima...

Ultra-sharp screen, Improved design, A feature whore's wet dream, Fast, great quality camera
Battery life takes a hit, Smart Notice is pointless
After running down most of the LG G3's features, we're now well and truly spent. There's an awful lot packed inside that gorgeous faux-metallic frame, and most of it is absolutely marvellous.If you're after mobile entertainment, the ultra-sharp screen and...
Abstract: The LG G3 is the company's flagship Android smartphone for 2014, and it's a big one, literally and figuratively. Actually, for a 5.5" phone, it's surprisingly compact, and it's not much larger than the smaller-screen HTC One M8 and Samsung Galaxy S5. The ...

There's no reason why LG shouldn't be running with the pack with their G-series smartphones with HTC, Samsung, and Apple in the United States. Unfortunate for them, Samsung has the advertising finesse required to show themselves off as the fine-quality ...
