LG G Flex 2 release date and price

The LG G Flex 2 release date was staggered as usual, with South Korea getting the device on January 30, 2015 and Singapore taking pre-orders as of February 27, followed by Hong Kong. Some US carriers are now making the phone available and Vodafone in the UK is also taking pre-orders.

The unlocked LG G 2 Flex price has not yet been officially confirmed, but US Cellular has an up front LG G Flex 2 price of 630 USD. Sprint has the LG G Flex 2 available outright for 504 USD. AT&T is taking pre-orders but there is still no word from Verizon or T-Mobile

LG G Flex 2 Video


LG G Flex 2 design and build quality

The first thing you notice about the G Flex 2 is its curved form factor, which LG claims provides an immersive viewing experience just like watching a curved TV, with a 5.5-inch phone at 30 cm apparently matching a 55-inch curved TV at three meters. In reality it feels pretty much the same as a regular phone, even if LG does have the science to prove it.

A superior audio experience is also promised thanks to the ergonomics of the phone, in relation to the curvature of the face, as well as the fact that the curved back allows the speaker audio to avoid being muffled when placed on a flat surface.

Call quality is improved by 2 dB over the original G Flex because the curve brings the mic a centimeter or so closer to the mouth. It’s hard to judge as significantly better than other phones, but when receiving a call from the G Flex 2 it does sound clearer with less interference.

The rebounding sound waves from the speaker also come out louder and crisper than with other rear-mounted speakers. But ultimately, the G Flex 2 is a curvy, bendable phone that looks cool and is an instant conversation starter.

On the back, the rear-key set-up has changed a little from the LG G3, but not by much. The central power button feels a little loose to me, and almost like you could pull it off, but the button layout, size and usability has greatly improved since the original LG G2.

Like the LG G2 and original G Flex, the back of the G Flex 2 is a monstrous fingerprint magnet that shows up all kinds of greasy markings right from the get-go. If you’re gentle on back cover abuse, the G Flex 2 should stay looking new for much longer, but I wouldn’t count on it.

On the front we’ve got a typically luscious LG display with minimal bezels (but nothing too revolutionary) coming in at 5.5 inches. The G Flex 2 once again brings a P-OLED display for improved durability, along with a custom treated Gorilla Glass panel to produce LG’s proprietary Dura-Guard Glass, but this time the display is much better than the original G Flex.

Dura-Guard is apparently 20 percent stronger than Gorilla Glass 3 and features much better strength and shock absorbency at the edges, where drops are felt most. I can’t say I’ve gone out of my way to drop the G Flex 2, but when it has taken a tumble it has been no worse for wear. The removable back cover reveals a non-removable battery and microSD and SIM card slots.

There are two color options for now: Platinum Silver and Flamenco Red which are tinted more at the edges and look quite good, even if they are a little glossy for my tastes. The front of the device looks pretty much like an LG G3 and the rear color doesn’t make its way onto the front of the device at all.

The G Flex 2 is 15 percent lighter than the original G Flex at just 152 g and only has a marginally larger footprint than the G3, measuring 149.1 x 75.3 x 7.1-9.4 mm. Of course, the G Flex fits your palm, pocket and face like no other device around but the curve is ultimately secondary in importance (in my opinion) to its flexibility and ruggedness.

LG G Flex 2 display

The G Flex 2 features a Full-HD, 5.5-inch plastic-OLED display with an acceptable pixel density of 403 pixels per inch. Making the phone more pocket-friendly and bumping up the resolution will please those who didn’t like the original G Flex’s size or screen quality, but the absence of a QHD screen may be a barrier for others. I’ll remind you though that the use of an HD display on the original G Flex was due to technical limitations – not choice – and the same may well be true here.

The display itself is pretty great – no visible artefacts or ghosting that I could see and good deep blacks, nice saturation and bright colors. The sharpness may not be there when compared to the LG G3, but for me it seems more satisfying, most likely due to the properties of the OLED display. The brightness has also been beefed up compared to the G3 and it is easily readable under direct sunlight.

While I’m not always a fan of overly-saturated and contrasty displays, it’s hard not to like the G Flex 2’s display, especially when compared to the original G Flex. Our test unit did seem to have an overly cool tint at first, but switching to the Vivid color setting and turning off the “Auto-adjust screen tone” setting brought it closer to white (although it was still a bit cool).

As far as the display glass goes, the Dura-Guard coating is chemically bonded to Gorilla Glass via a rather complicated gas burning-in process that improves on Gorilla Glass’ existing strength in the center of the display panel by providing additional durability around the edges, making the entire device even more indestructible than the first G Flex.

LG G Flex 2 special features

LG has introduced a more advanced second generation self-healing material that is supposed to repair scuffs and scratches in just 10 seconds, as opposed to the three-to-10 minutes of the original G Flex. In my experience, the self-healing back of the G Flex 2 doesn’t live up to the hype.

It’s all a bit complex, but micro-capsules inside the material burst when scratched and fill in the gaps to reproduce an uninterrupted surface. In my very first scratch test though, I irreparably gouged the surface and I wasn’t even pressing hard. The key was admittedly sharper than most, but it was indeed a regular key that lives in my pocket.

lg g glex 2 bend
The flexibility is not just about bending, but shock absorption too. / © ANDROIDPIT
Internally, the entire chassis is quite elastic, including a flexible battery, and the whole device bends just as easily as the original G Flex. This elasticity means that you have nothing to fear from sitting on your phone or dropping it, thanks to superior shock absorbency. This is the real jewel in the crown of the G Flex 2.

LG G Flex 2 software

The G Flex 2 software is Android 5.0.1 Lollipop out of the box with LG’s Optimus UI. Everything on the software side from the LG G3 has been ported over to the G Flex 2 along with a couple of nice new additions.

The best of these features is undoubtedly Glance View, whereby you simply swipe down on a darkened screen to bring up a preview of the time, date and any notifications you may have.

Unfortunately you can’t see anything other than icons in the status bar, but the idea is a good start. It would be nice if you could incorporate a two-finger swipe for expanded lock screen notifications, for example.

Of course, Knock On and Knock Code unlocking options remain as security features, but Glance View provides the opportunity to more intuitively – and more quickly – check the time and your notifications without the need for fully unlocking your phone.

AndroidPIT LG G Flex 2 selfie gesture

When it comes to other LG G Flex 2 features, the phone is also selfie-friendly, with Gesture Controls for snapping selfies from up to a meter-and-a-half away (selfie sticks, anyone?). Simply hold the phone up to take a selfie and close your fist to start a timer.

As you bring the phone down, the G Flex 2 knows the next thing you want to do is check your photo, so it automatically enters a photo preview and then resumes camera mode if you raise the device again. You can also disable this feature if you don’t like it.

Dual Window screen sharing is on board, so you can open two mini-apps at once for faster multitasking. You’ve also got Smart Notices (a kind of LG-specific Google Now for phone maintenance, reminders etc), Smart Tips to help you get the most out of your phone and resizable and adaptive Smart Keyboard.

There’s not too much else on the software front you wouldn’t already know from the G3 other than seamless Android Wear integration via stock mini apps, but LG seems to have learned that gimmicks for gimmicks’ sake are best left on the drawing board.

LG G Flex 2 performance

The LG G Flex 2 specs are pretty impressive: packing a 64-bit octa-core Snapdragon 810 clocked at 2.0 GHz, the G Flex 2 promises to ride high on the specs front for all of 2015. Backed up with 2 or 3 GB of RAM depending on whether you opt for the 16 or 32 GB version (like the G3 before it), the G Flex 2 has all the power you’re likely to need.

With greatly improved performance over the Snapdragon 805 – and better battery management – the 64-bit 810 is the next level in mobile CPUs. One thing that needs to be mentioned though is the issue of thermal throttling.

lg g glex 2 back speaker
Despite thermal throttling, the G Flex 2 dissipates heat quite well. / © ANDROIDPIT
While the issue of the Snapdragon 810 overheating seems to have been blown out of proportion, LG has confirmed that the CPU’s performance may be throttled back when under load to avoid overheating. I can’t say I noticed this in my time with the G Flex 2, but it is a consideration if you are likely to be using the phone for processor-heavy tasks like hi-res gaming.

Of course, this is nothing new either: the Xperia Z2 has a nasty habit of shutting down after shooting a short amount of 4K video due to overheating, and so does the Z3. The G Flex 2 actually dissipates heat quite well, and while I did get some irregular heat warnings while benchmarking, the device itself was certainly not hot enough to warrant a heat warning. LG had this to say on the matter:

“The devices sampled are representative of final industrial design and user experience but are continuing to undergo additional optimizations to enhance benchmark performance. We expect our upcoming software releases to provide further improvements in this area.”

The Snapdragon 810 houses an Adreno 430 GPU for speedy pixel pushing and tri-band Cat. 6 LTE for 300 Mbps data speeds. Bluetooth 4.1, NFC, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac and USB 2.0 round out the specs sheet. Here are some benchmark results that put the G Flex 2 at the top of the pile, exactly where you’d expect it to be.

AndroidPIT LG G Flex 2 benchmarks

In practice, the phone is generally very fast and responsive, but I did experience the occasional glitch or hiccup when trying to force problems with rapid multitasking, app switching or swiping at speed. Returning to the home screen occasionally produces a noticeable delay as on-screen elements are redrawn. It's nothing too serious, but not what you'd expect from a 2015 flagship. On the other hand, Real Racing 3, our standard gaming performance app, performed very well and looked great too.

Some other minor performance issues worth noting are a little bit of lag in switching between the front and back-facing camera, which is very slow. Apps don’t always launch as fast as I’d like them to either. Swiping down the notifications shade also seemed marginally slower than it should be. But these are very minor issues: the G Flex 2 is one of the fastest phones around right now.

LG G Flex 2 Audio

The LG G Flex 2 has a rear-mounted speaker that produces crisp and loud audio. The LG G3 had a 1.5 Watt speaker but for the life of me I can't find the output of the G Flex 2 speaker anywhere. Nevertheless, it does sound a bit louder and better than the G3, which wasn't a particular slouch in the audio department.

If you want best-in-class audio, get the HTC One M9 and if you want the loudest speaker on the block you're looking for the Galaxy S6. If you're happy with a middle-of-the-line speaker with good peaks and decent enough bass (for a smartphone) that gets plenty loud enough then the G Flex 2 is perfectly satisfactory. Its positioning on the curved back does create a nice echo effect that amplifies the sound even further.

LG G Flex 2 camera

The G Flex 2 has the same camera module from the LG G3 but with improved software. The exceptional laser auto-focus module reappears too, along with OIS+. The same 2.1 MP camera appears up front and the camera interface is all very familiar, with just three preset modes: dual-shot, panorama and auto.

Shooting options are up to Full-HD video up front with 1 MP or 2 MP still photos, and the main camera has a range of shooting options up to 13 MP for stills or UHD video. The G Flex 2 also supports 120 fps slow motion and HDR.

The camera interface is very straightforward and intuitive to use. Camera detail is very true-to-life in terms of resolution and accuracy of detail. Low light performance is exceptional, thanks to the laser-auto-focus module and OIS+. Representation of color was very accurate, skin tones are very natural and HDR mode is excellent.

On the down side, shutter speed seemed surprisingly slow, considering the G Flex shares the G3's super-fast shutter. This created some difficulties when timing shots properly, especially moving subjects. Launching the camera app and switching between cameras was also slower than expected and it's also really easy to smudge up the lens seeing as it's so close to the volume up button. All in all, though, the camera results were outstanding.

LG G Flex 2 battery

The G Flex 2 specs include a 3,000 mAh non-removable battery under the back cover – a step down from the 3,500 mAh battery in the first G Flex. Nevertheless, the software and hardware optimizations of Android Lollipop and the Snapdragon 810 mean that the G Flex 2 does not suffer on the battery life front.

Fast charging technology also means the G Flex 2 can charge up to 50 percent capacity in less than 40 minutes. The G Flex 2 also makes use of stepped charging technology; where standard battery charging comes in at 1.8A, the G Flex 2’s stepped charging is capable of 2.6A.

Under the pressures of test conditions the G Flex 2 was making it through a day of heavy use quite easily. The combination of a good-sized battery, Full-HD display, battery-saving OLED screen, Android Lollipop’s power optimizations and the energy-efficiency of the Snapdragon 810, the G Flex 2 should have no troubles getting you through a normal day of usage.

Final verdict
The LG G Flex 2 is a very impressive phone that requires a lot of hard work to find flaws in (not including performance, which will hopefully be rectified soon with a software update). So much so that it almost feels like nitpicking. LG listened to feedback on the original and improved critical areas that needed attention like size, camera and display quality, while doing even more on durability and not loading up with new gimmicks simply for the sake of it.

Some may feel that LG didn’t go far enough: after all, the G Flex 2 has a very similar specs sheet to the original G Flex, with a much improved SoC coming at the cost of the larger battery, one of the original G Flex’s greatest strengths. But the improvements in hardware make that additional battery capacity unnecessary. The G Flex 2 also shares a lot of DNA with the LG G3, but considering how good the G3 is, this is hardly a bad thing.

The LG G Flex 2 does something the original G Flex couldn’t: it puts forward a convincing argument for the possibility of a premium device with serious hardware backed up by all the benefits of superior durability, flexibility and ergonomics. As a normal phone the G Flex 2 would be great, but adding a near-indestructable build quality makes it truly outstanding. Stay tuned for a finalized review rating in the near future.

EVOLUTION OF LG’S CURVED SMARTPHONE UNVEILED AT CES 2015
LG G Flex2 Features Dynamically Curved Design Optimised With Sharper Display, Powerful Hardware, Intuitive Software

SYDNEY, 6 January 2015— LG Electronics (LG) continues to push the industryboundaries, globallyunveiling the new G Flex2 at the 2015 International CES®in Las Vegas.The original G Flex earned positive reviews for its innovative design and outside-the-box thinking. One year later, the GFlex2 improves upon its predecessor with a more advanced design, faster performance and most importantly, greater convenience.

G Flex2 1

The LG G Flex2 boasts sleeker, more stylish curves and a powerful Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 810 processorwith octa-core 64-bit capable CPUs for a nimbler and smoother performance. Its 5.5-inch display gets a bump up to Full HD, while the updated software offers even more convenience through all-new features such as Gesture View and Glance View. The unique “Self Healing” back cover from the original G Flex carries over to the G Flex2 and is now faster and more effective than before.

G Flex2 2

Beauty In The Details

The G Flex2 goes beyond its predecessor’s groundbreaking 700mm radius curved profile. The new smartphone harmoniously incorporatesa symphony of curvesranging from a radius of 400mm to 700mm across the front, back, sides and top-to-bottom edges. The dynamically curved layers deliver a sleek and dynamic look to G Flex2.

However, the G Flex2’s curves are for more than looks. The phone’s ergonomic design brings the microphone closer to the mouth, for enhanced sound pickup.The slimmed down 5.5 inches screen with curvatures is a stylish fit for eyes and the grip. The display’s 700mm radiuscurvature delivers an immersive viewing experience, while the steeper650mm radiuscurvature of the back is more comfortable to grip and fits easier in the pocket.The display’s resolution has also been bumped up to 1080p Full HD, which makes UI detail appearcrisp and alive. The P-OLED display, which gives the G Flex2 its unique shape and durability, is even more precise than in the original G Flex

Turning the phone over reveals handcrafted details such as the Spin Hairline Pattern on the G Flex2’s curved rear, which showcases the subtle yet brilliant polish of the surface from every angle.



Most Advanced Technology To Date

The G Flex2 is the first smartphone officially announced to come equipped with the Snapdragon 810 processor, featuring octa-core 64-bit capable CPUs optimized for Android 5.0 and the advanced Qualcomm® Adreno™ 430 GPU for stunning graphics performance. This makes the smartphone incredibly fast and efficient for multimedia and multi-tasking. The Snapdragon 810 also features fully integrated 3x20MHz Carrier Aggregation support for faster, more efficient connectivity.

What’s more, the G Flex2’s cover glass is more durable, thanks to aspecial chemical treatment technology developed by LG.

The Self-Healing back, which keeps the phone looking new even throughscratches from normal everyday use, hasalso been improved with significantly faster healing time.

Another innovative technology only available in LG smartphones is the amazingly fast Laser Auto Focus camera, first introduced in the popularLG G3. This technology enables the G Flex2 to capture the best moment — even in low light — by measuring the distance between the subject and the camera using a laser beam. Combined with LG’s proven OIS+ technologyand dual LED flash, the G Flex2 delivers images that rival even standalone point and shoot cameras.



Practical Solutions for User Convenience

The G Flex2’s curve-enhanced user experience carries over to softwareas well.It comes fully loaded with the best of LG’s unique software features optimised for its curved form factor:

Ÿ Gesture Shot - makes it easy to capture the perfect selfie with a simple hand gesturerecognisable from up to 1.5 meters away

Ÿ Gesture View - makes it easy to check your last shot immediately after taking a photo or selfie

Ÿ Glance View - displays key information such as time, recent messages or missed calls with a downward swipe of the curved screen even while the display is off

Ÿ Fast Charge - allows the embedded 3,000mAh battery in the G Flex2 — the only curved mobile battery in the world- to be charged up to 50 per cent in under 40 minutes

“The original G Flex demonstrated LG’s pioneering spirit and with the G Flex2 we have refined the curved form factor, staying true to our philosophy of innovation for a better life,”said Juno Cho, president and CEO of the LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “The G Flex2 not only has the stunning looks, it also has the powerful guts to be at the cutting edge of current smartphone technology. Simply put, it’s a true head-turner in every sense of the word.”

The LG G Flex2 will be available starting at the end of the month in Korea to be followed by additional global markets. Australian availability of the G Flex2 is not confirmed at this point in time.

The device will initially be available in two colors: Platinum Silver and Flamenco Red.

Like the LG G2 and original G Flex, the back of the G Flex 2 is a monstrous fingerprint magnet that shows up all kinds of greasy markings right from the get-go. If you’re gentle on back cover abuse, the G Flex 2 should stay looking new for much longer, but I wouldn’t count on it.

LG G Flex 2 scratch test

On the front we’ve got a typically luscious LG display with minimal bezels (but nothing too revolutionary) coming in at 5.5 inches. The G Flex 2 once again brings a P-OLED display for improved durability, along with a custom treated Gorilla Glass panel to produce LG’s proprietary Dura-Guard Glass, but this time the display is much better than the original G Flex.

Dura-Guard is apparently 20 percent stronger than Gorilla Glass 3 and features much better strength and shock absorbency at the edges, where drops are felt most. I can’t say I’ve gone out of my way to drop the G Flex 2, but when it has taken a tumble it has been no worse for wear. The removable back cover reveals a non-removable battery and microSD and SIM card slots.

There are two color options for now: Platinum Silver and Flamenco Red which are tinted more at the edges and look quite good, even if they are a little glossy for my tastes. The front of the device looks pretty much like an LG G3 and the rear color doesn’t make its way onto the front of the device at all.

The G Flex 2 is 15 percent lighter than the original G Flex at just 152 g and only has a marginally larger footprint than the G3, measuring 149.1 x 75.3 x 7.1-9.4 mm. Of course, the G Flex fits your palm, pocket and face like no other device around but the curve is ultimately secondary in importance (in my opinion) to its flexibility and ruggedness.

LG G Flex 2 display

The G Flex 2 features a Full-HD, 5.5-inch plastic-OLED display with an acceptable pixel density of 403 pixels per inch. Making the phone more pocket-friendly and bumping up the resolution will please those who didn’t like the original G Flex’s size or screen quality, but the absence of a QHD screen may be a barrier for others. I’ll remind you though that the use of an HD display on the original G Flex was due to technical limitations – not choice – and the same may well be true here.

The display itself is pretty great – no visible artefacts or ghosting that I could see and good deep blacks, nice saturation and bright colors. The sharpness may not be there when compared to the LG G3, but for me it seems more satisfying, most likely due to the properties of the OLED display. The brightness has also been beefed up compared to the G3 and it is easily readable under direct sunlight.

Colors are bright and vibrant, with good saturation and contrast (and a slight blue tint). / © ANDROIDPIT
While I’m not always a fan of overly-saturated and contrasty displays, it’s hard not to like the G Flex 2’s display, especially when compared to the original G Flex. Our test unit did seem to have an overly cool tint at first, but switching to the Vivid color setting and turning off the “Auto-adjust screen tone” setting brought it closer to white (although it was still a bit cool).

As far as the display glass goes, the Dura-Guard coating is chemically bonded to Gorilla Glass via a rather complicated gas burning-in process that improves on Gorilla Glass’ existing strength in the center of the display panel by providing additional durability around the edges, making the entire device even more indestructible than the first G Flex.

LG G Flex 2 special features

LG has introduced a more advanced second generation self-healing material that is supposed to repair scuffs and scratches in just 10 seconds, as opposed to the three-to-10 minutes of the original G Flex. In my experience, the self-healing back of the G Flex 2 doesn’t live up to the hype.

It’s all a bit complex, but micro-capsules inside the material burst when scratched and fill in the gaps to reproduce an uninterrupted surface. In my very first scratch test though, I irreparably gouged the surface and I wasn’t even pressing hard. The key was admittedly sharper than most, but it was indeed a regular key that lives in my pocket.

lg g glex 2 bend
The flexibility is not just about bending, but shock absorption too. / © ANDROIDPIT
Internally, the entire chassis is quite elastic, including a flexible battery, and the whole device bends just as easily as the original G Flex. This elasticity means that you have nothing to fear from sitting on your phone or dropping it, thanks to superior shock absorbency. This is the real jewel in the crown of the G Flex 2.

LG G Flex 2 software

The G Flex 2 software is Android 5.0.1 Lollipop out of the box with LG’s Optimus UI. Everything on the software side from the LG G3 has been ported over to the G Flex 2 along with a couple of nice new additions.

The best of these features is undoubtedly Glance View, whereby you simply swipe down on a darkened screen to bring up a preview of the time, date and any notifications you may have.

Unfortunately you can’t see anything other than icons in the status bar, but the idea is a good start. It would be nice if you could incorporate a two-finger swipe for expanded lock screen notifications, for example.

Of course, Knock On and Knock Code unlocking options remain as security features, but Glance View provides the opportunity to more intuitively – and more quickly – check the time and your notifications without the need for fully unlocking your phone.

AndroidPIT LG G Flex 2 selfie gesture

When it comes to other LG G Flex 2 features, the phone is also selfie-friendly, with Gesture Controls for snapping selfies from up to a meter-and-a-half away (selfie sticks, anyone?). Simply hold the phone up to take a selfie and close your fist to start a timer.

As you bring the phone down, the G Flex 2 knows the next thing you want to do is check your photo, so it automatically enters a photo preview and then resumes camera mode if you raise the device again. You can also disable this feature if you don’t like it.

Dual Window screen sharing is on board, so you can open two mini-apps at once for faster multitasking. You’ve also got Smart Notices (a kind of LG-specific Google Now for phone maintenance, reminders etc), Smart Tips to help you get the most out of your phone and resizable and adaptive Smart Keyboard.

There’s not too much else on the software front you wouldn’t already know from the G3 other than seamless Android Wear integration via stock mini apps, but LG seems to have learned that gimmicks for gimmicks’ sake are best left on the drawing board.

LG G Flex 2 performance

The LG G Flex 2 specs are pretty impressive: packing a 64-bit octa-core Snapdragon 810 clocked at 2.0 GHz, the G Flex 2 promises to ride high on the specs front for all of 2015. Backed up with 2 or 3 GB of RAM depending on whether you opt for the 16 or 32 GB version (like the G3 before it), the G Flex 2 has all the power you’re likely to need.

With greatly improved performance over the Snapdragon 805 – and better battery management – the 64-bit 810 is the next level in mobile CPUs. One thing that needs to be mentioned though is the issue of thermal throttling.

lg g glex 2 back speaker
Despite thermal throttling, the G Flex 2 dissipates heat quite well. / © ANDROIDPIT
While the issue of the Snapdragon 810 overheating seems to have been blown out of proportion, LG has confirmed that the CPU’s performance may be throttled back when under load to avoid overheating. I can’t say I noticed this in my time with the G Flex 2, but it is a consideration if you are likely to be using the phone for processor-heavy tasks like hi-res gaming.

Of course, this is nothing new either: the Xperia Z2 has a nasty habit of shutting down after shooting a short amount of 4K video due to overheating, and so does the Z3. The G Flex 2 actually dissipates heat quite well, and while I did get some irregular heat warnings while benchmarking, the device itself was certainly not hot enough to warrant a heat warning. LG had this to say on the matter:

“The devices sampled are representative of final industrial design and user experience but are continuing to undergo additional optimizations to enhance benchmark performance. We expect our upcoming software releases to provide further improvements in this area.”

The Snapdragon 810 houses an Adreno 430 GPU for speedy pixel pushing and tri-band Cat. 6 LTE for 300 Mbps data speeds. Bluetooth 4.1, NFC, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac and USB 2.0 round out the specs sheet. Here are some benchmark results that put the G Flex 2 at the top of the pile, exactly where you’d expect it to be.

AndroidPIT LG G Flex 2 benchmarks

In practice, the phone is generally very fast and responsive, but I did experience the occasional glitch or hiccup when trying to force problems with rapid multitasking, app switching or swiping at speed. Returning to the home screen occasionally produces a noticeable delay as on-screen elements are redrawn. It's nothing too serious, but not what you'd expect from a 2015 flagship. On the other hand, Real Racing 3, our standard gaming performance app, performed very well and looked great too.

Some other minor performance issues worth noting are a little bit of lag in switching between the front and back-facing camera, which is very slow. Apps don’t always launch as fast as I’d like them to either. Swiping down the notifications shade also seemed marginally slower than it should be. But these are very minor issues: the G Flex 2 is one of the fastest phones around right now.

AndroidPIT LG G Flex 2 camera interface

LG G Flex 2 Audio

The LG G Flex 2 has a rear-mounted speaker that produces crisp and loud audio. The LG G3 had a 1.5 Watt speaker but for the life of me I can't find the output of the G Flex 2 speaker anywhere. Nevertheless, it does sound a bit louder and better than the G3, which wasn't a particular slouch in the audio department.

If you want best-in-class audio, get the HTC One M9 and if you want the loudest speaker on the block you're looking for the Galaxy S6. If you're happy with a middle-of-the-line speaker with good peaks and decent enough bass (for a smartphone) that gets plenty loud enough then the G Flex 2 is perfectly satisfactory. Its positioning on the curved back does create a nice echo effect that amplifies the sound even further.

LG G Flex 2 camera

The G Flex 2 has the same camera module from the LG G3 but with improved software. The exceptional laser auto-focus module reappears too, along with OIS+. The same 2.1 MP camera appears up front and the camera interface is all very familiar, with just three preset modes: dual-shot, panorama and auto.

AndroidPIT LG G Flex 2 camera color repro

Shooting options are up to Full-HD video up front with 1 MP or 2 MP still photos, and the main camera has a range of shooting options up to 13 MP for stills or UHD video. The G Flex 2 also supports 120 fps slow motion and HDR.

The camera interface is very straightforward and intuitive to use. Camera detail is very true-to-life in terms of resolution and accuracy of detail. Low light performance is exceptional, thanks to the laser-auto-focus module and OIS+. Representation of color was very accurate, skin tones are very natural and HDR mode is excellent.

AndroidPIT LG G Flex 2 camera low light action
Low-light performance is outstanding, but the shutter speed seemed a little slow. / © ANDROIDPIT
On the down side, shutter speed seemed surprisingly slow, considering the G Flex shares the G3's super-fast shutter. This created some difficulties when timing shots properly, especially moving subjects. Launching the camera app and switching between cameras was also slower than expected and it's also really easy to smudge up the lens seeing as it's so close to the volume up button. All in all, though, the camera results were outstanding.

LG G Flex 2 battery

The G Flex 2 specs include a 3,000 mAh non-removable battery under the back cover – a step down from the 3,500 mAh battery in the first G Flex. Nevertheless, the software and hardware optimizations of Android Lollipop and the Snapdragon 810 mean that the G Flex 2 does not suffer on the battery life front.

Fast charging technology also means the G Flex 2 can charge up to 50 percent capacity in less than 40 minutes. The G Flex 2 also makes use of stepped charging technology; where standard battery charging comes in at 1.8A, the G Flex 2’s stepped charging is capable of 2.6A.

Under the pressures of test conditions the G Flex 2 was making it through a day of heavy use quite easily. The combination of a good-sized battery, Full-HD display, battery-saving OLED screen, Android Lollipop’s power optimizations and the energy-efficiency of the Snapdragon 810, the G Flex 2 should have no troubles getting you through a normal day of usage.

Final verdict
The LG G Flex 2 is a very impressive phone that requires a lot of hard work to find flaws in (not including performance, which will hopefully be rectified soon with a software update). So much so that it almost feels like nitpicking. LG listened to feedback on the original and improved critical areas that needed attention like size, camera and display quality, while doing even more on durability and not loading up with new gimmicks simply for the sake of it.

Some may feel that LG didn’t go far enough: after all, the G Flex 2 has a very similar specs sheet to the original G Flex, with a much improved SoC coming at the cost of the larger battery, one of the original G Flex’s greatest strengths. But the improvements in hardware make that additional battery capacity unnecessary. The G Flex 2 also shares a lot of DNA with the LG G3, but considering how good the G3 is, this is hardly a bad thing.

The LG G Flex 2 does something the original G Flex couldn’t: it puts forward a convincing argument for the possibility of a premium device with serious hardware backed up by all the benefits of superior durability, flexibility and ergonomics. As a normal phone the G Flex 2 would be great, but adding a near-indestructable build quality makes it truly outstanding. Stay tuned for a finalized review rating in the near future.

Lol this thread machiam become one copy and paste from mobile website liao ah

 

[slayer2004]

I did tried using the demo set, simply gorgeous. Especially the red...

 

[jtec14]

I think the Laser Focus is certainly something to forward to to help achieving better focus

What is this laser focus? For the camera?

 

[jtec14]

with the rage about bending phones these days, obviously the LG g flex will outperform the rest as it is designed to be able to bend and flex without any permanent damage. having lollipop out of the box is great too, much better than most of the phones still stuck at kitkat.

the self healing technology is also one of a kind, people are so worried about scratches on their phones these days. with this self healing we would not have to worry about any more scratches on scratch prone areas on the back

What the flex! The LG Flex 2 can withstand a load of at least 25kg.

Body:
Weighing at just 152g and With a superb curved body and design that gives an ergonomic hold on the phone, users can hold and use the phone comfortably.

Display:
These days, consumers are going for bigger screens and the LG G Flex 2 is certainly no disappointment. Sporting a 5.5 inch P-OLED touchscreen in Full HD (1080 x 1920 pixels), users can enjoy watching shows and beautiful graphics games on the go!

The LG G Flex 2 comes protected with a highly acclaimed Corning Gorilla Glass 3 that helps to protect your screen against cracks and scratches on this little beauty!

Memory:
While the phone does not come with the option of 64 gb or 128 gb internal storage space as what we see in other phones, users can rest assure that their storage will not be a problem.

The phone supports microSD cards of up to 128gb and that is certainly more than enough to store all your games, music and all other files! As long as a fast microSD card is used (e.g.: Class 10), there will not be any dip in performance.

The LG G Flex 2 is also packed with 3gb of RAM which enables you the run multiple applications and the latest games at blistering speeds. Game on!

Other features will be covered later

25kg! What's interesting is that the phone is temporary flat with that weight however it could recover to it's original shape again (this is demonstrated by first G-Flex before). Don't worry about the scratches that might be caused by the weight because the self-healing cover will heal it back to new in no-time!

the LG G Flex 2 is also powered by the following technologies:

OIS+

Yes, it is very gorgeous but I dunno I get used to the curved form... While I probably won't attempt to try to sit on it with my >25kg butt.. lol

I think the Laser Focus is certainly something to forward to to help achieving better focus

Ok, found in LG official website:
With Laser Autofocus that’s fast and accurate and OIS+ that reduces the effects of camera movement, images are clearer and sharper every time.

 

[Alexz_Hong]

Forgotten the part about Gesture View and Glance View that improve the screen off and camera experience.

I find gesture view and glance view more of a gimmick than anything. lol.

 

[jtec14]

So now for vs against, haha hope my points dun get deducted due to this post.

1) 5.5 inch Full HD display, I think I might be able to accept it(current phone 5.2 inch). Anything more, probably turned me off like Nexus 6.
2) Curve form factor, you either love it or hate it. I read somewhere it is slightly flexible? Curve to straight and back to curve?
3) While it is reported improved camera features, this is not a dealbreaker for me since nowadays 13mp looked like 8mp to me(commented by matchy earlier as well)
4) Battery not swappable, up to now I still dunno why is this a dealbreaker, I believe battery capacity is more of a concern.
5) Self healing back, while the Flex 2 have this feature, I noted that the back seems very prone to scratches from a demo set.
6) I loved the glossy back but also a fingerprint magnet.. sigh it is hard to have the best of both worlds.
7) More durable, Dura Guard glass
8) Inconsistent CPU speed
9) poor battery life, hope it is something firmware updates can fix.

I dun think i am getting curved TV for my home any sooner, so if I get LG G Flex 2, this maybe my portable curved TV.

Read up more on the recovery rate of Self Healing back cover, will vary depending on ambient temperature, scratch depth and amount of wear and tear already present. In one of the review online, it mentioned the recovery could be as fast as 10 seconds.

So LG is using Knock Code™ instead of fingerprints reading to unlock phone. The Knockcode offer 86,367 different ways/combinations to unlock the phone by just using 2-8 point customized pattern anywhere on the display using just one hand. Seems cool.

There are reviews of memory cards performance in phone. It is so much slower than the onboard storage that the fastest and slowest memory cards speed difference is insignificant. Some phones will force to use the onboard storage for some camera modes.

Seem like the trend is going towards super fast onboard storage only.

But when an increase in onboard storage space means an exponential increase in price...

Have la, hot curves tempered glass screen protector need a high precision machine to make nia

Why LG never give free 1 year screen replacement like in South Korea sia Like that will just stick a normal SP instead of tempered glass



So meaning LG G Flex2 UI will be different from G4?

I think still got many areas of improvement Android can work on. Battery that can last for 1month, better camera for night shots or poor lighting conditions, glass screen crack-proof, water-proof and durable like Nokia drop onto floor many times still can work



Hahahah most likely big cannon fairy then. If can get I sure won't do that, I always take good care of phone de. Likewise, you let me know if you get the prize ok Duno still got warranty cover then?

Should have rahz, moi dunch mind trying with moi big fat behind to test the 25kg claim~

if the phone have so much memory...why their is need for 128gb microsd card?

Because storage space, like Rams & money, are never enough?
