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: SK텔레콤 T검색 탑재한 LG G4 후기삼성 갤럭시S6의 대항마 LG G4가 지난 29일 한국을 비롯한 6개국에 출시되었습니다. LG G4는 조리개 값 F1.8의 강력한 카메라, 더욱 높아진 색재현력과 정확한 터치인식 그리고 이번 갤럭시S6에 빠진 외장 메모리와 더욱 높은 배터리 용량을 탑재하고 출시되었는데요.특히 SK텔레콤을 통해 출시된 LG G4에는 모바일 통합 검색 서비스 T검색이 최초로 탑재되었으며 단말기 사용환경 최적화와 분실/도난 방지를 위한...
Abstract: LG G4 개봉기 디자인과 구성 뜯어보기 > 에서 잠시 소개한 LG G4 UX에 대해서 조금 더 경험을 해보며 정리 를 해보겠습니다. LG가 UX에 대해서 많이 신경쓰기 때문에 처음에는 별 생각없이 사용하는 UI였다가 은근히 중독되는 UX로 남는 경우들이 종종 있습니다. G4에서는 카메라를 중심으로 선택과 집중을 한 모습 을 보여주고 있는 것이 특징으로 보입니다.G4가 등장하기 전부터 이야기 되어왔던 LG UX 4.0 티저동영상 입니다. 사실 LG...
Abstract: LG G4를 사용한지도 이제 일주일이 지났습니다. 기기변경을 하고 본격적으로 사용한 기간은 5일정도 되는 것 같네요. 메인폰으로 사용하는지라 새로운 세팅을 만들기 위해서 시간이 있을 때마다 G4를 보며 기능들을 열심히 살펴보았습니다. 현재 G4의 여러가지 매력에 만족하며 사용하고 있습니다.오늘은 본격적으로 리뷰를 시작하는 첫 번째 포스팅인데, G4가 가장 자랑하는 기능중에 하나인 카메라 부분을 살펴 보도록 하겠습니다. 그동안...
Abstract: 지난 4일 저녁 LG G4를 긴급히 입수하였습니다. 컬러는 브라운이며 소재는 가죽인 커버의 모델을 수령하였는데요. 개인적으로는 지난 발표회에서 본 스카이블루 컬러의 가죽커버에 심히 꽂혀있어서 내심 수일내에 해당 컬러의 커버가 출시되지 않을까 기다렸습니다. 그래도 G4의 대표컬러로 인지되고 있는 브라운 가죽커버 모델에 대해 궁금하신 분들도 있으실 것 같아서 개봉기와 G4의 전반적인 외관 디자인에 대한 이야기를 함께 풀어보고자 합니다. 딱히 브라운에...
Abstract: LG G4를 받고 T월드에서 기기변경을 하고 메인폰으로 사용하게 된지 하루가 지났습니다. 그동안 늘 함깨했던 갤럭시S5를 떠나고 LG전자 스마트폰을 사용하다 보니 익숙치가 않아서 그런지 상당히 낮선 느낌이 있네요. 그동안 주로 아이폰과 갤럭시 시리즈만 사용했기에 더 그런 것 같습니다.그동안 LG 스마트폰은 리뷰를 위해서 잠시만 사용을 하고 메인폰으로 사용한 적이 없었네요. 아무래도 플래그십폰이 아닌 LG 중저가 폰만 주로 리뷰를 해서 그랬던 것 같습니다...
Abstract: LG G4 출시되면서 많은 사람들이 관심을 가지게 되는 것이 LG G4 vs 갤럭시S6에 대한 비교 가 될 듯 합니다. 기기 스펙이나 성능에 대한 비교는 개인적인 경험으로 가지는 편이고 다른 분들이 다양한 관점으로 많이들 정리해주고 있습니다. 그래서 저는 SNS 상에서 LG G4와 갤럭시S6가 어떻게 회자되고 있는지가 궁금했고 비교 해볼까 싶어졌습니다. SNS상의 빅데이터를 분석하고 소셜마케팅 자료로 활용하기 좋은 티버즈(Tibuzz)를 이용해서 회자되...

Abstract: LG G4 개봉기 디자인과 구성 뜯어보기 > 글에서 LG G4 디자인과 개봉기를 다루어보고 이번에는 관심이 가장 많은 LG G4 카메라에 대해서 경험 을 해봤습니다. 다양한 장점들로 무장했기 때문에 LG G4 카메라에 대한 관심들이 높을 듯 합니다. 개인적으로 LG G4 카메라에서 퀵샷과 전문가모드가 인상적 이었는데요. LG G4 카메라의 다양한 장점들과 함께 퀵샷과 전문가모드를 좀 더 살펴보도록 하겠습니다.LG G4 카메라를 이야기하면서 가장 많...
Abstract: 조금 똑똑한 소비자 입장에서 바라본 G4 발표회 > 글에서 블로거 간담회를 통해 LG G4미리 만나본 이야기를 했습니다. 분명히 많은 장점과 스펙의 특징이 있을 것인데 발표내용 때문에 조금은 불편했었던 심경을 정리하기는 했습니다. 사실 현장에서 찍은 많은 더 많은 사진이 있었지만 소개 해드리지 못했습니다. 아쉬움을 담아 LG G4 개봉기 를 정리하고자 합니다. 심호흡하고 LG G4 개봉기를 시작해봅니다. 이번 글은 LG G4 디자인 특징과 구성품 들...
Abstract: 요즘 스마트폰은 단순히 앱을 실행하고 통화를 하는 것으로는 부족하다. 세련되고 작은 패키지 안에 다양한 기기의 기능을 모두 집어넣어야 한다. LG가 새로 발표한 주력 스마트폰 G4도 마찬가지다. LG는 더 고급스럽게 보이고자 플라스틱 대신 가죽을 덧씌웠다. 그렇다고 겉모습만 신경 쓴 것은 아니다. G4는 주요 경쟁 제품인 삼성 갤럭시 S6에 비해 별 특징 없이 보일 수 있지만 색다른 것을 원하는 안드로이드 팬을 위해 많은 기능을 알차게 제공한다. 누구를...
