LG G3 Review Summary: Price, Specs, Pros and Cons You Need to Know
Here's our breakdown of everything you need to know about the LG G3.
Pros and Cons
The LG G3 delivers the perfect balance between quality and value, featuring one of the best
displays in its class. It has a relatively large display for a smartphone, featuring a 5.5-
inch HD-IPS + LCD screen with more than 500 ppi. The 32GB model has 3GB of RAM, while
both the models can be expanded to 128GB storage.
The 13-MP camera may not have the most powerful lens, but it is still a high-resolution camera
that can capture images at 4160x3210 pixels. The front camera comes ready with built-in selfie-gesture detection system. The G3 has a powerful 2.5-GHz quad-core CPU and provides faster
data support on 4G. The phone also supports NFC besides Infrared and Bluetooth.
The LG G3 doesn't seem to have any major drawbacks. It may have a 13-MP camera, but a
number of other brands outclass it with more powerful camera lenses. The so called metallic skin
is actually polycarbonate. The phone may be an elegant piece of work, but its design features
haven't improved over its predecessor.
Specs
The LG G3 features a 5.5-inch, high-pixel density touchscreen. It may be a smart phone but
the large display and form factor fits more into the "slate" class. The screen has a stunning 534
ppi density and supports 1440x2560 pixels. The phone is available in 16GB and 32GB storage
configurations with expansion slot for maximum storage of 128GB. The two models support
2GB and 3GB RAM respectively.
The primary camera in the G3 has a 13-megapixel lens and the secondary camera has a 2.1-
megapixel lens. The smartphone is powered by Android KitKat and runs on a 2.5-GHz quad-core
Krait 400 processor. The phone weighs around 149g. Its 3,000 mAh battery can support up to 21
hours of talktime and over 560 hours of standby.
Talking Points
The LG G3 was released in June 2014 as a successor to the G2. The polycarbonate "metallic
skin", quad HD display and a neater UI are some of the major improvements in the phone.
Prices
The LG G3 costs around $520 when purchasing on Amazon.
Conclusion
LG has long claimed to be producing some of the best smartphones in the world. It may not
have received an apt response to this claim in the market, but the G3 certainly is much more than
a smarpthone - it really is more of a phablet and its 5.5-inch large display with 500+ ppi density and a
powerful CPU, all combine together to create an amazing phone at a great value.
