Was alright, but had issues

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.

Still using it daily after 2 years

Phone owned for more than a year

Excellent blend of form and function. Outstanding in 2013, still respectable into 2016. Great screen-to-body ratio, knock-knock and genius placement of buttons.
Heavy daily usage for both personal and work, this phone never disappoint.

Underrated phone that can easialy go up against the big guys

Phone owned for more than a year

Simple clean phone with great rear buttons. Good camera and a screen that goes edge to edge. In my opinon the idea size phone for the advrage user. The UI is fairly stripped down but still seems a bit laggy for a phone with this much processor power. Decent built in storage and adquate battery life.

Best phone in 2013 - 2014!

Phone owned for more than a year

This is my first Android phone. It's amazing, fast, comfortable to hold and to use. It works very great after 18 months. With the quick window cover it will be awesome! It has only one problem that there is no micro sd slot available!

LG G2 Review

Phone owned for less than a year

Perfect phone. The only reason I sold phone its memory. Our operators sell only 16 gb version, and you get around 10 gb free space which is simply unacceptable. Great camera for filming, even in low light situation.

A Great Phone, Even in 2015

Phone owned for more than a year

Got my G2 used on Ebay for a little under $200, lightly used and unlocked. For the money, it is an excellent phone. If you are looking for a budget smartphone, i'd highly recommend this one. The phone may be almost 2 years old, but the battery performance, UI and camera are all comparable to today's flagship smartphones. The button configuration(buttons are on the back of the phone) and all plastic design are its only drawbacks otherwise, the G2 is an excellent smartphone

Just don't drop on the front....

Phone owned for less than a year

Great device from LG, but as i said on the title....drop drop it, cuz the screen is super frangile if it fall down. But after all is very cheap now and it will also get the android 5.1.1 update, which is a "plus".....for me at least.

Don't Bother

Phone owned for less than 3 months

I love this phone! But the design is terrible! Now, I know phones aren't drop proof but i dropped it once, barley cracked it and the screen won't respond to my touch at all. I would think that it was just the way i dropped it but the same thing happened to my boyfriend and his LG G2. I would really love to buy this phone again but its not worth the money to me.

worst phone evet

Phone owned for more than a year

I am now on my 2nd phone. This phone has given me more problems than necessary. The first phones screen stopped working in one spot causing very limited use and apps opening and running on their own. The only way to describe it is possessed. The current phone i am on worked fine for the first couple months, than problems. Shuts down, will not let me dial out and force closes phone and messaging, gets extremely hot, takes 20 mins "thinking" to send a message, the knock feature works when it wants, the camera on both phones is horrible and blurry.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS PHONE!

Phone owned for less than a month

After a year of putting up with a defective Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (that couldn't be completely repaired at the factory - used to shut itself off at will, take days to receive text/call messages and volume would turn off on text messages: so I would miss calls and texts) for a year, waiting for a Sprint upgrade that all but evaporated and reminising about my old, reliable Razor flip phone all the while ... after doing a ton of research on a very limited budget, I settled on this LG G2 (new in a sealed box) and couldn't be happier. It has renewed my faith in the cell phone industry as a whole. Even more so than the Galaxy S3 that survived a motorcycle crash (being in the thigh pocket of carpenter jeans) that took half of my left calf. Impressive indeed. I look forward to many years of service from my new LG!

amazing phone

Phone owned for more than a year

I love this phone, I feel in love right away. The thin bezels makes it look smaller than other 5.5 inch phones. The camera is all around one of the best, takes very fast pics and 4k videos and it has optical image stabilization, and selfies shouldn't be a problem in dark places with it's flash like feature. I don't know why people are saying that the screen isn't bright enough and that it's hard to see at direct sunlight, It looked great to me. Amazing stock keyboard, no need for 3rd party keyboard. The battery isn't as bad as people say, I'm a very heavy phone user(social media, YouTube,games etc.) and at the end of the day I'm left with about 20%. The back power and volume buttons is a great idea. Truly a piece of art.

Great phone, love it! It's quite new, and has something for everyone built in. It's not pricey as hell, it's pretty cheap for such an amazing phone. I love LG devices, always have and always will! It's not too big nor too small.

Went from Galaxy s5 back to G2

Phone owned for more than a year

I have had this phone for over a year and recently upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy S5 for a specific app that wasn't yet available on the G2 but end up returning it and going back to the G2 cause it is that awesome of a phone. I kept knocking on the S5 and would get irritated when nothing happened. The button placement on the G2 was awkward and cumbersome at first but once your used to it you won't want to go back, especially if you have stubby fingers like me. The one-handed features are much better than on the S5. The non-removable battery is not a problem because of how long the battery last (just make sure to keep google play in check, its a huge battery hog). And the lack of SD card is not that bad, you will get over it. Everything sync's to a cloud nowadays anyways. I loved LG as a basic phone and now I can love their smart phones as well. I was going to get the G3 but after playing with the S5 and coming back to G2 I figured why fix it if it ain't broke.

One of the best Android phones

Phone owned for less than a month

This is one of the best Android phones on the market, and will server basically anyone's needs. It has a great feature set, and the 3000 mAh that you need to get through a full day of usage. The only black marks I would give it are the awkward rear button placement, and the lack of a MicroSD slot or replaceable battery.

great phone

Phone owned for less than 3 months

This is a great phone. It feels nice, looks nice, and is highly functional. Plenty of memory, good ram, and is plenty fast when zipping around home screen or internet. This is a smooth fast phone with a real nice screen. I love the screen size and quality display. The G2 is a perfect blend of big screen without crossing the phablet line. I do not look forward to the day that I'll have to replace this phone; it is the perfect size. The power button on the back I've gotten used to but it doesn't impress me in any way I'm aware of. Maybe it makes the phone feel sleeker without having buttons all around the edges, maybe it makes the knock feature more convenient to show off, I don't know. I don't take a million photos, so I don't focus on the camera much. Seems to take good quality photos, but i feel like I want to zoom in some times.
Over all this phone has been a great experience, and I will compare other phones in the future to it, as I am very happy with my LG G2.

Great phone for the price!

Phone owned for less than a year

I've had the G2 for about 6 months now. Prior to this I had the Galaxy S4. There are some things I like more about this phone - battery life, small bezels, solid built quality. On the other hand, there were some things that this phone does not have that I liked more on the S4, such as - thermometer or humidity sensor (yes, I actually used it), camera not as good (no slow mo or fast motion), especially front camera, I miss the physical home button

Best buy

Phone owned for less than a year

I bought this phone 6 months ago. It's an amazing device with nice price. I love thin bezels and buttons position. I use it for gaming, music, instagram, browsing and everything works perfectly smooth. I only dislike front camera which is awful, much worse than one on my previous phone (Samsung ATIV S).

Dippy LG G2 Review

Phone owned for less than 3 months

Battery is long lasting for a day or so n usage is really easy n the best part is the OIS Camera.Far better than S4.Better to go for LG G2 than LG G3 as G2 has a great stand by time.
Had a great time with LG G2.Games played on G2 kill a lot of battery life.Music play and videos are no chance outstanding.
