Unqiue design, Fantastic battery life, Capable camera
Creaky build, Display is average, Childish icons, Very expensive
While I'm not the biggest fan of the world's biggest phones, I don't mind the LG G Flex at all. Perhaps the curve makes it interesting, or maybe I've just gotten used to bigger phones. Whether the curve is just a gimmick or not doesn't matter because it'...
The LG G Flex's contoured display renders media watching more immersive, it features a scratch-resistant coating, and its sizable battery provides an adequate amount of juice

The LG G Flex has some decent hardware including a great camera and more storage than usual. Excellent software is also a lure but its main feature, the curved screen, is too big, only 720p and offers no real benefits. This phablet is too gimmicky so you'...
