  First, last and only good LG phone

  I bought it secondhand (Sep '15) for really cheap about $70 (just phone) and used it for about an year. I really liked it until the biggest problem arrived but I'll get to that at the final moment. The volume keys and power button are smartly placed at the back and is convenient to reach. Taking a selfie with this feels good. Anyways, it's REALLY snappy, as it is powered by the Snapdragon 800, faster than iPhone 5S and Galaxy S4. The display is really good, a tad saturated but the sunlight legibility is poor. Photos taken with this camera is amazing, coupled with OIS, it's sharp, gives good colours and low-light samples are still decent. Videos are stable and great. The phone also supports 4K video recording with a mod. After the Lollipop update, the UX design changed drastically. It really looks neat but then I realised battery life took a toll. 16GB can be quite struggling to live with. No microSD card slot too. I stopped using it when the touch dead zone appeared.

  Pros

  • Snappy, smooth
  • Good, sharp display
  • Compact, high screen-to-body ratio
  • Great camera
  • Presence of IR blaster

  Cons

  • Mediocre battery life after Lollipop update
  • No microSD card slot (for international)
  • Battery not removable (for international)
  • Poor software UI design

  • 8.9
  • Screen7.5
  • Performance6.3
  • Camera7.2
  • Connectivity9.0
  • Battery7.0
