Fail to begin with,
G3 performs better than G4...
Are they nutz?!
This is a midrange phone with top camera and screen.
For that price performance ratio, it is a scam

those who say 808 is an underpowered soc before they had a chance to check out LG G4 are, let me put it mildly, are not very bright.. this benchmark game is pointless, its always about optimization, if 808 handles every daily task smoothly then LG G4 is an excellent phone, if it staggers - than not. It has same scren resolution as LG G3, but a better processor, so forgive me if I can't take the crying of the funeral squad seriously, I expect it to perform very well. Btw, currently I have G3, and not a single time I had to throw crazy 36DD graphics at it, I use it for web browsing, twitter and various messaging, works totally fine. I got PS4 for gaming, sorry, I'm weird like that.

Also, I wish GSM arena stopped pointing out the 'inferiority' of LG G4 every time they post a new piece on it. It's pointless, it just looks like someone is paying them to do it. Instead of blindly comparing benchmarks, reviewers should honestly be answering one simple question - does the phone stagger in everyday use, when you open 10 apps one after another, use multitasking, run repeatedly throught menus, etc. This is what is important for most users. It's like reviewing cars - let's compare all cars to Bugatti Veyron and conclude all other cars are have insufficient power. LOL.

Anonymous, 29 Apr 2015The question is: Is this twice as better as G3 ? At this moment G3 is £260. You should compare the price of G4 with G3 after one year later. This is common sense. If you still could get a G3 then.

This phone has an underpowered lower end snapdragon 808..... Its not a flagship since its too slow compared to m9 and s6. Don't buy the G4 for £500, its not good enough! You want to be silly,a fool and her money.....

AnonD-94604, 29 Apr 2015$750 for plastic phone with SD808? Noooo wayDon't know what you are talking about. If you look at the current price of G3，you will never say LG phones are high price.
No one force you to buy a new released smartphone at high price. Wait a few months and you will find the true CP value of its phone.

Flagship with reasonable price, that's more like it.

808 or 810, it doesn't matter. With good ROM, even my note2 performs as good as new phones.

Anonymous, 29 Apr 2015Question is, how much 808 will throttle. Might be that 2xA57 are faster in prolonged use than... mores810 much bad show, heats a lot, and his declining performance, when heated.
