The LG G2 is without a doubt a great deal. If you are in the market for an Android phone we can't recommend it enough. And you would save some money buying the LG over upgrading to the most recent high-end iPhone. But we think that your smartphone is wort...

LG has reclaimed its place in the smartphone market with the introduction of the LG G2. A big plus is the powerful quad core processor that runs on 2.3GHz for each core. This is supported by 2 GB of DDR3 RAM and an Adreno 330 Graphics Processing Unit whic...
If you can live with the fixed battery and equally fixed storage, the G2 is a rather impressive bag of tricks. It's surprisingly small and svelte for something with a 5.2-inch screen and that screen is a very good example of the breed. The battery is use...
The LG G2 is a great phone, with a bit of fiddling it's an amazing phone, with a bit of hacking it would be an astounding phone. It's just the normal person buying one of these won't probably be able to even turn off some of the unnecessary features. Whic...
Fantastic screen, Top notch processor, Clever user interface tweaks, Good camera
No expandable storage, Plasticky chassis
The inability to add extra storage is a real downer, and a very unfortunate decision by LG. I'm not a fan of the slightly budget feel of the G2's backplate either – a more premium finish might have done better in the style wars. That said, there's loads ...

We love the LG G2. It's fast, fun and has the best screen you'll ever see.If you want a larger phone, this is one of the best on the market.The only thing that lets the G2 down is its plastic back cover, which makes it feel cheap.Had LG included an alumin...
Android phones continue to lead the smartphone pack when it comes to downright ludicrous screen sizes, and while the G2 isn't the biggest out there, it's still something of a whopper, running almost edge to edge with minimal bezel. At 5.2-inches from corner to corner, the full HD IPS+ panel offers a pixel density of 424 ppi - putting aside the technical mumbo-jumbo for a moment, that basically me
The G2's rear-mounted Power and Volume keys are likely to divide opinion - LG claims they rest in a more natural position but we found they take a bit of getting used to. It's also fair to say that the handset isn't the most attractive Android blower available right now. It's certainly far from ugly, but it doesn't have the same head-turning quality that the HTC One and iPhone 5S have. Android 4.
With that massive screen and super-fast quad core CPU, the G2 leaves practically every other Android phone in its wake. It's so powerful that we couldn't get it to stutter no matter what we threw at it, so if you're an advanced mobile user who enjoys p...
