Despite what LG told us at the launch event, the LG G4 has appeared on the list of compatible Quick Charge devices. Qualcomm Quick Charge is that thing that allows certain devices running either the Snapdragon 810, 808, 805, 801 or 400 to charge up incredibly quickly. Quite what …
Way back in March 2014, before I started going grey after typing a ber-zillion posts a week, I took a look at the banana-shaped G Flex from LG. What they were basically trying to do was make an impact. People had seen the same old political parties slab-shaped …
With all this talk of the new LG G4 it’s perhaps all too easy to forget about the G3. It’s still my daily driver and, despite me draining the battery surprisingly quickly, it takes great pictures and that 5.5″ screen really doesn’t feel like 5.5″. Yes, that sounds …
Following on from the announcement of the latest flagship from LG, two of the largest UK independent retailers have today started taking pre-orders for device. The G4 appeared just yesterday, with the launch attended by our very own Leigh. You can catch up on his LG G4 overview …
Just how do you pad out a story that really only has one nugget of information? Do you mention the specs and the general details about the phone in question? Do you chuck lots of images in to fill the void? Well, we’ll try both. The LG G4, …
To look at, the LG G4 is similar to the G3. It’s only really when you turn it over and notice either the leather back or the new switch assembly. In a way it reminded me of the HTC One M9. It’s not all about redesigning from scratch, …
I’ve been quite a fan of the LG G3 for a while now. Until I actually had one in my hand I’d perhaps not considered LG as an option and, to be honest, that’s a bit of a shame. The new LG G4, like the G3 before, is a …
If you’re planning on getting the all-new LG G4 on TalkTalk, good news. It’ll be arriving on the MVNO pretty soon. We’ve had confirmation today that the handset will be available to customers when it’s brought to the network, although there’s no news on dates or pricing just …
We’re here. We have nibbles, we have leaked specs and there’s even time for a coffee. Sit down and enjoy our live coverage of the LG G4 launch below..
Afternoon all. If you’ve been following our coverage of the LG handsets and devices, then you may be aware that there’s a rather large launch happening this afternoon in London. Leaker Evan Blass, who’s know a freelance writer-for-hire, seems to have already confirmed the LG G4 specs, which …
Invites have been sent out for the next LG launch. We’re suspecting it’ll be the LG G4 and it’ll be launched at events in New York, London, Paris, Seoul, Singapore, and Istanbul next month on April 28th and 29th. Other than this invite and the phrase “See the …
Rumoured for a next quarter anouncement, (which fingers crossed is April not May) more leaked renders LG’s next flagship device the G4 are hitting the internet. It’s said to be powered by an octa-core Snapdragon 810 processor, having a 20 MP rear camera, a 5MP front-facing camera and …
Back in the day I used to go out to Mobile World Congress on my own. Then it was held in Wolverhampton and there was me and a bloke from Nokia standing around a market stall. * This year there was several of us descending on the event, …
Yes, the LG G Flex2 does indeed look like my existing LG G3 after I’ve sat on it. The comparison shots below should hopefully show that. The G Flex2 doesn’t appear as curved as the original G Flex and there’s no concerns about the screen, which could “ghost” a …
Hello, what’s this then? The hot new LG G Flex2, on Vodafone with a G Watch R chucked in too? For £44.50 per month? Ohh, I’ll have a bit of that thank-you. Feeling a bit like a bendy LG G2, this has a 5.5″ screen and runs Android …
If you want the LG G Flex2 then get your wallet ready, it’s not too far away. LG have been in touch with us to state that Sprint in the USA will be getting the handset first, and then Europe and Asia shortly after. In the UK Vodafone …
These are either hot new handsets that LG wants to highlight several days before Mobile World Congress kicks off, or just some mid-range handsets that LG want to get out of the way. I’ll leave it up to you to guess which one it is, because LG have …
A short while ago I put together my ultra-cheap Google Cardboard headset. It’s something you construct yourself, pop on your head and then, using the Google app, you can step into a 3D world. Now, if you’ve got an LG G3 handset, you’ll be getting one free. It’s …
Want your phone to look like the all-new G Flex2? First up, you’re going to need a bowl and a blow torch. Get your phone, place it in the bowl. Next, get the blow-torch and heat your phone up until it melts into the shape of the bowl. …
For years I have wanted a flip phone, I used to like the form factor more than any other and my move to Android meant the acceptance of a lack of different forms. Samsung have made a few flip phones over the years and now LG have launched …
Following the launch of the new, higher-resolution G-Flex2 yesterday (which has a 5.5″ screen and a number of other similarities with the LG G3), Vodafone have approached us this morning with some juicy information. Vodafone will have a network exclusive for 6 weeks from the launch of the …
Not long ago today we posted leaked information and a press release about the new LG G Flex2. This was about to be announced in Las Vegas at CES. Now this is very real thanks to the full and official LG announcement Whilst the original G Flex might not …
Just a few short hours after the sneaky camera shot and here we have some leaked details about the new LG G Flex 2. According to tbreak.ae it’ll look like this… Also we’ve got the full leaked press release, which details that the handset will first be available …
Although we do see a few launches of new phones at CES, a lot of companies tend to hold off until the more mobile-centric event at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Despite this, we’re hearing that a number of manufacturers will be announcing new phones in the next …
First it was Vodafone-supplied G3’s, now it looks like unlocked handsets are also receiving the update to Lollipop. We’ve received a number of emails and tweets to say that handsets have updated, but handsets from other networks don’t appear to have the new version just yet unfortunately. As …
OK, I’ll be quick with this one as Aran is going to update you on all the Vodafone Black Friday / weekend deals in a moment, but you can bag yourself the rather nice LG G2 (which we lovingly reviewed here) for a mere £150. That’s not an …
I do rather like the LG G3. It’s the first LG device I’ve owned in a long, long time and overall I’m very impressed. It packs a 1440×2560 5.5″ inch screen at 534ppi WiFi, Bluetooth 4, 4G and a 13 megapixel camera at the back with laser focus. …
The LG G3 is a cracking device, possibly one of the best phones this year, with great specs and a huge great 2K display. I really like mine and no doubt many readers will do too. It’s about this time of the year that people start looking to …
What’s the “S” for? Supercharged? Superfast? Well, if you read our LG G3 review but wanted the device to be just a tad smaller, the LG G3S is probably the device for you. As is the tradition now, a “mini” version of the flagship is now in stores …
Owning a flagship device is tough sometimes, the constant anguish over potentially smashing your phone into dozens of pieces is a daily problem for me and as such I always try and buy the most rugged and tough case I can find for my lovely phone. With my …
I’m going to write this while it’s fresh in my head because I’ve reviewed a number of phones over the years and, quite honestly, I’m a bit bowled over. Now, we’ve already published our LG G3 review, but I’ve only just got my hands on one. James told …
Whilst looking around for a new handset, I stumbled across a sale that Vodafone are doing. They’ve discounted the £99 up-front fee normally charged on their contract LG G2 and you can pick it up (until September 17th) for free on plans starting at a measly £18.50 per …
A few weeks ago LG published a promo video for the LG G3 Beat and at the very end of the video they used a graphic showing all of the G3 variants, the funny thing was that one of the phones on display didn’t exist, the G3 Stylus. …
LG have always had a lower spec and cheaper range of devices, which up to now had groovy names like LG LII 2, LG have announced the L Fino and L Bello. Much better names. The are basically a 4.5″ low spec phone and a 5″ not quite …
Back in March we had a look at the LG G2 mini which you can view here and as you know us here at Coolsmartphone love a good bargain. Well over at UK Hot deals there is a deal where you can grab the LG G2 mini for …
In the mobile industry the word “flagship” is banded around a lot, it refers to any manufacturers current top end device. With every company out there having one it’s often hard to decide which one you want for yourself. I’m lucky enough to have a few of them …
When we heard about the forthcoming LG G3 Stylus, we were expecting hoping for the phone to be a bigger, badder, better version of the G3. We wanted something could take on the might of Z Ultra or the Note 3, and really show us why bigger meant …
LG have announced another variant of the G3, the G3 A. It is a weird device, that is smaller and lower spec’d than the G3, but larger and higher spec’d than the G3 S. It seems to be a Korean specific model so I shouldn’t be too upset …
The LG G3 Beat is the next upcoming phone from LG, it’s basically the G3 Mini and in preparation for that LG have created a rather jolly video promoting some of the features of the G3 Beat. They’ve published it on YouTube and they kind of forgot that …
Do you own an LG G3 and the QuickCircle case as well? Do you like playing puppy based games? Can you never be bothered to open the case up? If you answered yes to all of those questions then you are in for a treat later today. LG …
