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

The editors didn't like
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
No rapid charging
Over-saturated colors in photos
No full Quick Charge support
Or wireless charging without using a case
Some superfluous software
Regular plastic backs are nothing special
But the removable back brings its own disadvantages. The G4 is just rather plain and the leather options and different colored back panels can only get you so far
I'm obsessed with smartphone speakers. Music is a massive part of my life and listening thr
Wireless charging is not built in
Bulky and awkward to carry in a pocket
Less premium than other flagship phones
No frontfacing speakers
Subpar software
No native wireless charging support
Quick Charge adapter not included with phone
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
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
Android skin sometimes gets in the way
If you don't go with the leather back plate option
The regular plastic back plate makes the phone look pretty ordinary looking
Underwhelming battery life
Somehow impractical design or at least not as comfortable as last year's (overall bigger size)
Unoptimized and heavy UI
Doesn't support wireless charging
Battery life could always be better
Screen
No fingerprint scanner
Slow OS updates
Bloatware-heavy. Runs warm when gaming
Battery life is average and improves little from last generation
Snapdragon 808 processing performs well but lags behind other current flagships
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
Shorter battery life than competitors
Faux metal back is ugly
Thankfully we have other choices. Display isn't extremely bright
Subtle changes from the LG G3
Performance hiccups
Still not a fan of the rear controls
Some testers found it too big
Software could use some work
Not on the most current version of Android
Wireless charging requires optional case
Quick Charging isn't as fast as other devices that support it and plastic backs are meh and those wanting a premium metal feel won't get it
No quick or wireless charging
Downmarket design
Except for the polarizing leather option
Overall
A timid update to the G3
A bit pricier for those on a budget
UAG logo is a bit big
Middling design
No wireless charging
Plastic build
Ugly software
Inconsistent
Ungainly software
Plastic version offers little aesthetic improvement over G3
Leather version wears easily
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
Slightly longer
Wider
And heavier than the G3
Color temperature is a cold ~8000K
Underperforming graphics processing
Chipset is not what we would expect of a flagship
Imprecise screen brightness settings
Insufficient battery autonomy
Average Battery Life
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
High levels of luminance noise and some chroma noise in some base ISO images
Edge softness in some images
Occasionally unreliable focus in Auto mode
Low quality slow motion video and no way to export
Pronounced rolling shutter effect in video footage
Design isn't as impressive as some of its competitors
Even with the optional leather back. Performance is marginally behind the Galaxy S6.
Abstract: 5인치 이상되는 LG G4, 갤럭시S5를 휴대하면서 운동을 하다 보니 특정 스마트폰 모델 암밴드 보다 벨킨 유니버셜 암밴드가 더 좋다는 것을 알게 되었습니다. 무슨 말이냐 하면 스마트폰 암밴드는 운동할 때 팔에 끼워서 사용할 수 있는 데 특정 브랜드 모델만 지원되는 암모델은 이외에는 사용이 어렵다는 이야기죠.예를 들면 아이폰 전용 암밴드 갤럭시S4 전용 암밴드는 다른 5인치 이상의 스마트폰과 호환이 되지 않았습니다. 하지만 이번에 사용해본 벨킨...
Abstract: 모처럼 인사동에 LG G4를 가지고 나들이를 왔습니다. 인사동 쌈지길은 유명하잖아요. 그런데 DSLR카메라를 너무 많이 들고 다닐 순 없고 간편히 찍기에는 LG G4 만큼 좋은 카메라가 없는 것 같네요. 그리고 전문가모드 LG G4 카메라 촬영을 해보니 야간촬영시 셔터스피드 조절로 2초 정도 노출을 시켜주면 빛으로 재미있는 장난도 칠 수 있네요.특히 DSLR 처음 입문하였을 때 "불꽃으로 하트 만들기"를 했던 것을 LG G4 카메라로 똑같이 해보았습니다...
Abstract: LG G4의 세번째 리뷰 시간입니다. 그동안 카메라와 디자인등 G4의 여러 부분에 대해서 살펴보는 시간을 가졌습니다. G4가 가지는 가치 중에서 가장 크다고 생각하는 것은 개인적으로 카메라 성능과 디자인이라고 봅니다.그만큼 G4의 디자인과 카메라 성능은 어디에 내놓아도 손색이 없는 모습을 보여주고 있습니다. 그중에서도 카메라 같은 경우는 경쟁 제품인 갤럭시S6 그리고 아이폰6 플러스와 견주어도 앞선 모습을 보여 주고 있습니다.마음 같아서는 경쟁 제품인...
Abstract: '정말 카메라가 그렇게 좋아요?' LG G4를 사용하면서 사람들한테서 가장 많이 들었던 말이다. 보는 사람마다 카메라 이야기부터 꺼내는 것을 보니 LG전자의 홍보가 제대로 먹혔구나 싶다.스마트폰의 스펙만을 비교하자면 사실상 거기서 거기다. 일정 수준 이상으로 발전한 탓에 성능이 좋다 나쁘다를 몸소 체감한다는 게 쉽지가 않다. 소비자가 수치상으로 확인할 수 있는 성능의 발전보다 직접 느낄 수 있는 카메라 성능이나 디자인 변화에 집중하는 이유가 여기에 있...

Abstract: 지난 보름 동안 LG G4를 메인 단말로 사용해오고 있습니다. 개인적으로는 전에 사용하던 아이폰6 플러스처럼 G4도 꽤 괜찮은 후면카메라를 가졌다고 생각하는데요. 관련해서 이전의 전문가 모드와 RAW촬영에 대한 후속 포스팅으로 오늘은 G4와 아이폰6 플러스의 후면카메라의 결과물을 비교해봤습니다.이전글2015/05/12 - LG G4 카메라. 전문가모드와 RAW 써보니..2015/05/07 - LG G4 개봉기. 무난한 브라운 가죽커버와 곡률 디자인참고로...
Abstract: 아마 요즘 스마트폰을 고르는 기준은 차이는 조금씩 있겠지만 디자인과 카메라 기능을 중점적으로 살펴보지 않을까 싶습니다. 디자인의 경우 개인의 선호도와 취향에 따라 달라지고 카메라의 경우 스펙과 성능에 따라 그 기능의 차이가 있습니다.G4의 경우 전면 800만 화소 후면 1600만 화소 조리개값 1.8의 렌즈를 사용하고 있습니다.순간을 포착한다. 퀵샷후면키를 사용하는 LG 스마트폰의 공통적인 기능이긴 한데 후면키의 볼륨 다운버튼을 카메라 셔터로 사용할...

Abstract: LG전자가 G4 출시와 함께 지겹도록 강조한 부분이 있습니다. 바로 카메라죠. LG전자는 G4 홍보에 있어서 카메라 파트에 목숨을 걸었다싶을 정도로 관련 정보에 대해 일찍부터 풀어놓고 알려왔습니다. 실제로 LG전자는 G4 이전에도 G2에서 OIS를 국내 스마트폰 최초로 도입하고 G3에는 Laser AF로 초고속 AF 기능을 제공했죠. G4는 이들의 전통을 그대로 갖고 왔고 더 발전시켰습니다.G4의 카메라 관련 제원에서 일단 눈에 띄는 특징은 역시 F1...
Abstract: LG G4 개봉하자마자 달려 있던 보호필름은 엑스블루 블루라이트차단 보호필름으로 바꾸었습니다. LG G4 전용 보호필름이고 장점이라면 블루라이트차단으로 눈의 피로도가 감소한다는 것이죠. 그외 G4 보호필름에 지문번벅이 되지 않게 손자국 방지가 됩니다.퀀텀 디스플레이를 탑재한 LG G4가 화면의 색감과 화질은 쩝니다. 하지만 서른 넘고 장시간 볼 경우 나이먹어서 그런가? 스마트폰 태블릿 모두 장시간 볼 경우 블루라이트로 인한 눈 손상이 걱정되더군요...
