LG G3

    The LG G3 is a fantastic device, Which doesn't come as a surprise, from it's excellent design, great battery life, speedy user interface, innovative software features and outstanding camera, it has almost all bases covered. Packing a 5.5-inch QHD display, it was the first widely available Android to feature that screen definition, but it didn't take a hit on battery life due to LG’s clever power optimizations. The LG G3 is a well considered improvement to its predecessor, the underrated LG G2, but improves on several key features that really matter, proving that LG is listening to their critics too.
    The LG G3 is one of the best Android smartphones of 2014, standing up very well to the high expectations placed upon it in the lead up to its unveiling a few months ago. We've had a couple of months to get used to the G3's quirks and characteristics and seen it through a recent software update as well. Here's our in-depth LG G3 review to show you what best LG smartphone has to offer. Straight up, the LG G3 is a very good looking smartphone. The screen takes up a huge 76.4% of the front of the device and has very small side bezels. The rear of the G3 is curved to fit more comfortably in your hand, making its rather large footprint less noticeable. The G3 is like a more refined G2, with the same rear-key configuration on the back with slightly larger and easier to use power and volume buttons, and a nice symmetrical placement of the laser auto-focus module and dual-LED flash on either side of the camera lens.
    The rear cover is made of a brushed aluminum-look polycarbonate that LG calls ''metallic skin'' and it feels much better than the slippery cover on the G2. This time around though the rear cover is removable, making a removable battery and micro SD card slot a reality. An IR blaster, LED notification light and support for Qi wireless charging round out the list. The device is definitely large and would not suit those with particularly small hands, but the size is really not that noticeable due to the well thought out button placement and curved back panel. The G3 also has a 1 Watt speaker mounted on the back of the device that benefits from the rebounding sound waves between a flat surface and the back of the G3. The sound is solid and loud, but not quite up to HTC's Boom Sound experience. All in all a great phone, no wonder it made its way into the top 10 android smartphones of 2014.
