LG Optimus G Pro review: Proceed to checkout

8 March 2013
LG's first 1080p droid is also the company's first smartphone to cross the 5" mark, but a massive screen isn't the only thing that warrants the Pro tag. The LG Optimus G Pro boasts a new chipset too, and a significant software update over the...

      Anyone noticed how ugly S3 looked against this LGian. Really wish I could have this. Glad to see finally LG is trying to make things right. Hope they'd keep in mind the time factor also. 6 months is a really long period in today's ever changing phone market.

        another cheap copy cat from lg..
        combination of one x and s3..\
        lg faild again.

          Pressure is always on samsung, being market leader isn't easy. They have become the company that everyone wants to beat and everyone wants to compete against.
          But samsung bolsters their products much better than others. So it's game on from LG.

            Is there a way to disable the max brightness limit when the phone gets hot? Maybe an app in the play store can do the trick?

                  Its quiet dificult to understand LG'S logics behind to launch every competative phone product at six months let or too let against rivals,, specially against samsung.....very dificult.....

                      ' So unless you really need the S Pen or you simply can't afford the Optimus G Pro, than the LG flagship is the way to go now.' I think you meant Samsung flagship GSMArena.
                      But otherwise G Pro sounds like the best option to date!

                        Main disadvantages:

                        - Reflective screen doesn't do too well outdoors

                        - No Android 4.2 at launch

                        - 1080p video quality is unimpressive

                        - HDR video is poor

                        - Over-sensitive screen prone to accidental taps

                          If i was after a new phone this would probably be at the top of my list... I will keep my note 2 and wait to see what the note 3 brings.

                          Everything looks awesome but the battery life is a bit disappointing compared to the note 2.

                            Lmao..We'll see when the Note 3 comes around.
                            This is coming along time after the Note2 which is still as good as OG pro only lagging in benchmarks and display.

                                    At last, a great phone from LG ;)
                                    As much as I love the Note2, I'm glad there's heavy competition in the phablet range.

                                      The sheer power from LG's battery left me speechless and totally gobsmacked :)
