Description

The LG G2 is a high-end Android smartphone - an embodiment of cutting-edge hardware and precision-polished software, sprinkled with a handful of innovative goodies all over. It comes with top-of-the-line specifications, including a 5.2-inch, 1080p display made using IPS LCD technology, a quad-core Snapdragon 800 chip running at 2.3GHz, and 2GB of RAM. In terms of performance, the device should rank among the best handsets to date. Further down the list we have an advanced 13MP camera that stands out with cool features like optical image stabilization and 1080p video capturing at 60 frames per second. A notable multimedia feature is the support for 24-bit, 192kHz audio. The design of the LG G2 is quite unusual for its volume and power buttons are placed on the back. Its thickness of 9 millimeters is acceptable considering that inside the phone you'll find a 3000mAh removable battery. 32GB of on-board storage are present, expandable further through the use of a microSD card (in some markets).

This device is also known as LG Optimus G2, LG D802, LG D800, LG VS980, LG D801, LG D803, LG LS980

Was alright, but had issues

Posted: May 18, 2018, 8:46 PM

Phone owned for less than a year

I had it for about 6 months. The build quality was alright but it was all glossy plastic which looked and felt cheap. The buttons on the back were awesome though. The screen was very good and bright. The camera was very bad though, the worst ive had on a smartphone. The UI was also very very ugly.

LG G2 Review

Phone owned for more than a year

The really good things are UI speed and Battery, but you can expect a lot of problems with call quality, problems with microphone and speakers. The good solution is volume up/down key at the back side.

Great phone but I had this one issue..

Phone owned for less than a year

It's a really good phone, but I had this one issue where it cannot read my SIM card no matter what I do with it, I couldn't receive calls or text messages or use my data if it cannot read it. Though, it is a rare problem for this phone and I would still recommend it.
