Plastic model feels cheap
Average battery life
The battery life is still too poor – what on Earth has Google done with Android to make Lollipop so thirsty on the power
I never
Ever got through a whole day on battery with the G4
No matter what I was doing
And quickly found myself topping up at 4PM
But the removable back brings its own disadvantages. The G4 is just rather plain and the leather options and different coloured back panels can only get you so far
I'm obsessed with smartphone speakers. Music is a massive part of my life and listening th
Screen
No fingerprint scanner
Slow OS updates
Camera launcher could be better
No QuickCharge technology
Jury is out on leather durability
Though the phone's battery life is adequate
It doesn't last as long as its competitors. There are no significant new software features and its design feels uninspired
Overly large
Missing features
Underpowered somewhat
Plastic backplate feels cheap
Hexa-core not octa-core processor
Quite similar to the G3
Nonleather finishes are underwhelming
Battery life could be better
Leather and plastic?
Poor battery life
Chunky design
No universal search
Battery life not great (much like G3)
Big for a phone (larger than G3)
LG UX interface feels over fussy
Plastic back panel looks a bit naff compared to leather option
Bit of a fingerprint magnet
Bigger and heavier than a lot of its peers
Lacks the quality feel of metal competitors
Disappointing battery life
Not as expensive-feeling as S6 or M9
Not quite the best battery life of them all
Middling battery life I Plastic back option not the best
1440p display is beautiful, OS is simple and colourful, Snapdragon 808 is very capable, Camera is simply incredible for a smartphone, Phone is easily to hold
Average battery life due to 1440p screen, Slightly bigger than LG G3.
Having owned a LG G3 previously, I had high hopes for the LG G4. And it is safe to say I was not disappointed.The G4 is well designed, to begin with. For one, the back is now textured, meaning the phone is easier to hold and won't slip out of your hand. L...

Without a doubt, this is LG's best phone yet. While processor speed and spec wars are fun, for most people they're not the most important aspects of a smartphone. For most people, the list is short: They want a phone that's fast, looks good, takes hig...

Excellent handling, Display quality / great contrast and brightness / very high resolution, Responsiveness, Removable battery, microSD card slot, Great main camera (picture quality, modes) with excellent stabilisation, Good music and video players
Not that different to the G3, Great battery life, but it could still be better, Leather back easily damaged, Graphics not quite up to other premium handsets
It was perhaps a wise move from LG not to try and revolutionise the market. The G4 retains two of the most appealing features of an Android smartphone: a removable battery and a microSD card slot. On top of that, LG has more or less kept the design of the...

So should you buy the G4? Probably not.Its screen is stunning and the camera is possibly the best of what is currently available on the market.The G4 is also insanely fast and with all this going for it, it should be winning every award going.Sadly, we do...
The LG G4 is a great handset which suffers from the company's decision to faff around with aesthetic materials instead of focusing on the device itself. The camera, which was the main selling point of the G3 for me, remains outstanding, the display is gr...

If you've the yen and the yearning to pay in the £40/month range for a swanky flagship, then the G4 needs to be on your shopping list. HTC's out of the running because its camera doesn't cut it and the 810 processor zaps the phone, to no great advantage...
