The editors didn't like
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

Abstract: Every year the smartphone junkies look to a few select manufacturers for their next-gen purchase. At least in the U.S., the Android field is primarily HTC, Samsung and LG at this point with Motorola and Nexus phones being more niche (but still great) prod...
Beautiful 5.5-inch 2560 x 1440 Quad (2K) Display, 16 Megapixel Camera that's great for beginners & advanced enough for photography enthusiasts, Gorgeous genuine leather materials and design accents that add form to function, Micro-SD slot for expandable s
The display brightness and viewing angles could be better, Squared edges can be uncomfortable at times, and the plastic model is very slippery, Battery life is average at best
Outstanding camera with sharp detail and pleasing colors, Unique leather option, Removable battery, Base model with 32GB of internal memory and expandable storage, Slick metal body, Quality audio output and stereo speakers, Polished HTC Sense interface
Display The display on the G4, while not particularly accurate, is very bright with impressive levels of contrast and substantially improved viewing angles, especially when compared to the G3, Big phone, small footprint The G4 has a big 5.5" screen that o
Not any faster While not slow, the G4 really doesn't feel quicker than a G3 running Lollipop, still gets smoked by the Galaxy S6 in most benchmarks, and can occasionally exhibit undesirable stutter and jank for no readily apparent reason
While the G4 does have its flaws, it's still a significant improvement over the G3 in multiple ways, and that alone should win LG some praise (one could not necessarily say the same of, for example, the One M9). The excellent camera experience (DNG issues...
Pricing, Unfortunately, we don't yet have pricing information on the LG G4. I was handed a G4 as part of the TMobile Preview Tour and US carriers have not yet provided pricing information. I think it will be similar to other high end Android devices, but
The LG G4 is a fantastic device, and in my eyes, has no major flaws that should turn away any potential buyers. It is 2015 and there are a ton of great phones on the market, so while Samsung may have brought the “Wow!” factor in the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge...

Best manual still camera controls, Removable battery, upgradable storage, Androidy UI, light on bloatware
No quick or wireless charging, Downmarket design, except for the polarizing leather option, Overall, a timid update to the G3
With awesome manual camera settings and a gorgeous display, the LG G4 is one of the best phones of the year. And depending on your preferences, it might even be THE best phone....
Fantastic display, Excellent camera, Smooth, responsive performance, Solid battery life, with removable option, Premium leather backs are gorgeous
No full Quick Charge support, or wireless charging without using a case, Some superfluous software, Regular plastic backs are nothing special
As LG positions itself as the major rival to Samsung in the Android space, the G4 emerges as one of the most important launches of the year. And depending on how things pan out, it stands a decent chance of being one of the best Android phones of 2015. It...
Abstract: A 5.5-inch phone that retains the design language of the LG G3 with LG's signature rear-positioned buttons, the LG G4 focuses on two key areas for improvement: first, it's style, with a new leather back cover option and second - an improved, 16-megapixel...
