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

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

Lightweight
Great screen to body ratio
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
Graceful design, Gorgeous Quad HD display, Topnotch hardware and refined user experience, 13MP camera with laser autofocus
Still no customizable shortcuts for rear button, Would be nice to see Google Now integration in LG's cards widget
Move over, Galaxy S5. Take a seat, HTC One M8. We can unequivocally say that the LG G3 is the new Android smartphone to beat. LG did so much right in creating this handset while managing to avoid the pitfalls — bloated user interfaces, gimmicky features, ...
So what are you to make out of this comparison?Well, actually, things arent' as clear cut as you might have thought, specifically on account of the Nexus 5's enticing price point. Sure, looking at the full picture, the LG G3 proves to be the better overal...
Design is attractive and sturdy, Screen is simply spectacular, Handling is surprisingly easy, Top of the line specifications, Laser focusing system is indeed fast, G UI brings refined interface
Still a large device overall, General users may not notice 2K difference, Poor low light performance, G UI still somewhat cluttered and bloated, Smart Notice, in particular, not very useful
9.0 With its best in class display, incredible camera, and refined software, LG has succeeded in creating one of the best smartphones of 2014. For these reasons, the LG G3 receives our Editors' Choice award....
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, which is a given for those kinds of things. But it als
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 around
The G3 is a solid daily rider. LG made some big and impressive self-edits. They took out a lot of the bad and superfluous. Much of the bloat is gone.If, for some reason, you have your heart set on an LG phone or you were holding out for LG to fix some of...
The LG G3 is a mighty phone. I am not talking about just the specifications, or even the incredible sharpness of the pixels. It is impressive because it has a great balance of design, speed, ergonomics and battery life that should please users. Of course...

Although the Sony Xperia Z2 is a solid smartphone, the LG G3 comes in with newer and better technology – namely the stunning Quad HD screen – at a lower price point and inside a sleeker designed body. The LG G3 is a clear winner here....

The LG G3 and the iPhone 5s not only seem worlds apart when it comes to ergonomics and one-handed usage, but we found them to be quite different in terms of features, too. The steel-and-glass design of the iPhone 5s is more premium, and is way more comfor...

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
The LG G3 easily outshines the competition despite it being late to the party. Possessing the right blend of feature and design, LG may finally have the right phone to challenge Korean rival Samsung....
Knowing that the LG G2 had an outstanding camera, we expected nothing short of great results from its successor. And sure enough, the LG G3 did not leave us disappointed with its 13MP camera. The snapper is about as capable as those on the current leaders...

Powerful, versatile hardware, Aboveaverage fit and finish, Classleading display resolution, Responsive, intelligent software
Plastic build is easily scratched, Camera offers only average lowlight performance, Dimmer display than competition
The G3 is tangible proof that “iterative” isn't always a bad word. It combines the best elements of each of its predecessors –the Optimus G's beautiful hardware and responsive software, the G2's class-leading specs, the G Flex's bold style– into one very...
