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: LG has really changed things with their flagship devices, this year the LG G4 moves that needle forward with more than just specs boost. Lets go back to the LG G3; LG crafted a smartphone that could hold its own, there we saw the shift to the rear button ...
Abstract: The LG G4 is packed with great hardware, but its camera is one of its most important features. Our G4 review is in the works, but for this video, we explore all aspects of the LG G4's 16-megapixel shooter and test out its new optical image stabilization s...
Aesthetically unique and attractive design, Quad HD 5.5-inch screen is vivid and great for media, Snapdragon 808 shows how optimization is recipe for success, Backing is removable, comes in leather or plastic, Removable battery and expandable storage, Cam
LG UX still a bit bloated, Still some smudgy post processing in the camera, For those that don't want leather backings, plastic backs are a consolation prize
9.0 With a unique and attractive design, great performance, and a fantastic camera, while also being the only current flagship to feature a replaceable battery, LG is attempting to provide users with a phone that offers literally everything you may want....

Mostly great cameras, Long battery life, Has a microSD card slot, Bright, vibrant screen
Bland design, aside from that nice leather option, Trails its rivals in gaming performance, LG didn't include its Quick Charge technology
LG's 2015 flagship has a lot going for it, including a lovely pair of cameras and a screen that promises to be the most accurate on the market. As solid as the G4 is, though, it feels more like an iterative update than what LG really needs: a truly excit...

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
Though it feels too similar to last year's G3, the LG G4 is an excellent big-screen smartphone that will appeal to budding photographers, and has old-school features missing from rival flagships....
Abstract: So you're an Android person, and you're hunting for your next phone. The Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge obviously have the market edge with big sales and a stunning new redesign. But LG surprised the world with the very good LG G3 last year--a big screen p...

Beautiful, comfortable fit and finish, One of the best smartphone cameras available, Striking display, Expandable memory, removable battery
Inconsistent, ungainly software, Plastic version offers little aesthetic improvement over G3, Leather version wears easily,
No smartphone gets everything right, and the LG G4 is no exception. The software is by far its biggest shortcoming, lacking a unified look and feel and bringing little added utility to justify its existence. Also, with the plastic version the G4 gets c...
Abstract: There's £100 between these gorgeous Quad HD Android phones , but how cheap does the LG G4 have to be to make you choose it over the spec-loaded, performance heavyweight that is the new Samsung Galaxy S6? We compare two of the best new phones of 2015 spec ...
