LG G3 review: Dream catcher

06 June 2014
Late as usual but ever so strong. In an industry where timing is almost as important as quality, LG's highly anticipated G3 flagship makes landfall in the second half of 2014, a couple of months after the flagships of the other major players. Such a late...

    AnonD-265341, 07 Jun 2014I like to follow everyone. And this phone had alot of hype ... moredepends on person ..... g3 battery will last atleast for a day which is more than enough .... if anybody really wants a higher capacity , they can replace battery with aftermarket batteries available ...

    all reviewers are satisfied with screen , battery , camera, ui , performance( not considering s5s overclocked antutu scores ).. if we are getting all these features in a handy phone , certainly its the best .... most sammy /sony fans are in this thread only bcoz they are envy ... everbody knows sony and samsung will come with a qHD screen and small bezel ... till then this is a superior differentiating design in handy device

        I would really love to see a comparison of this phone to something older. Currently I have an iPhone 4 and am looking to upgrade... but the screen review of the iPhone 4 seems to suggest that it may be better in sunlight than the LG G3... since the iPhone 4 is already not that great in sunlight I'm a bit concerned.

        Any chance of someone doing a side by side review for those of us on longer upgrade cycles?

But it turns out to be a gimmik phone with below competition battery and a screen that just doesn't wow people. But the camera surprised me. The phone is very good, just not as good as people had expected. Imo.

                        Happy to see both s5 and z2 fans in g3 review (even to post negative comments ) .. yes friends this proves you are following g3 .. now samsung and sony need to follow lg by cutting down bezels and moving to qHD( z3 and note4 may b they will market it better and all these blind fans will support qHD ) thats their fate ...

                        to all other ppl who loves g3... yes this is a game changer u can read any reweiws gsa, phone arena, cnet, erica griffin,
                        only one phone they loves g3 ... no marketing terms ... just simple and humble g3 .. own it if u like simplicity.

                                  You almost say that as if you feel that just because it's good and was reviewed as excelent...but in a battle was nudged over in a victory means they were talking bad about it.
                                  Nothing here said anything bad or does not "praise" it.
                                  It was a battle of another top device that though the G3 is very good in areas was bested by something a little better in most areas.
