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

A great camera with full manual controls and output to DNG. And the color sensor seems to actually work, The Snapdragon 808 fixes many of the 810's issues. This won't be the reigning benchmark champ anytime soon though, A removable battery and SD card sl
No matter which back panel you get, the major contact points—the sides and buttons—are still plastic, No always-on voice commands, LG merged the individual notification and power settings panels into a single panel, and it's very cramped

I admire LG's restraint. The company took the best of last year's G3 and spent its time refining the key elements: display and camera, and that focus has paid dividends. The G4 has a fantastic screen and a camera capable of taking on Samsung and Apple's f...

Abstract: LG's newest flagship, the LG G4, is no longer a subject of rumors and hearsay – it's already official and poised to hit the market later this month, relieving the LG G3 from its flagship duties. The phone will certainly play a pretty important role in LG...
Abstract: LG's G4 arrives with a 16-megapixel camera (same as the S6), but it features a larger aperture lens (f/1.8 versus f/1.9 for the Samsung), which should result in better low-light shots. Plus, the G4 has a color spectrum sensor for ensuring accurate colors,...

LG thinks the G4 can compete with the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S6. And I think they are right. The LG G4 seems to check a lot of the boxes on checklists for an upgrade. Better performance, better display, better battery life, better camera, just abo...
Abstract: LG and Samsung have been in constant competition against one another for the last several years, but if we're to strictly base their success on sales figures, it would arguably be Samsung who would claim bragging rights. Seriously, there's nothing wrong ...
