What The Flex can the LG G Flex2 do?

[xiaowhois]

yes, the web browsing battery life not bad, but I think the CPU snapdragon 410 is slow, antutu benchmark only less than 20k

depends what you plan to use the smartphone for. Most of the time the phone just use little % of your phone even for LG Gflex 2 high end phone. As long as watch video/play game or other stuff which you normally do no issue/lag than there wont be any problem using snapdragon 410 than use LG G flex 2's snapdragon 810

LG G Flex2 is available in Flamenco Red and Platinum Silver in Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 chip. LG G Flex 2 is noticeably smaller and easier to hold with a 5.5-inch screen full-HD curved P-OLED display with a 1080x1920 pixels resolution and a 403ppi pixel density. LG G Flex2 display has a 700mm-radius curvature, while the back is slightly sharper with a 650mm-radius curvature for grip. Its Corning Gorilla Glass 3 with Dura-Guard.

Its not remotely rugged in a traditional sense. Don’t drop the G Flex 2 down the toilet as its not waterproof. Despite the fancy coating, the back panel is still a thin curvy bit of plastic that will scratch and crack just like the rest if you abuse it hard enough. The self-healing layer can only do so much.

Its a phone with a bendable technology. However, its also pretty practical given its slightly gimmick beginnings. As with most other top end LG phones, it also uses rear volume/power buttons rather than ones on the side. This does feel odd at first, but doesn't take long to become a convert. Like the curve, they just make sense ergonomically.

The other features include Gesture Shot recognisable from up to 1.5 metres away with either a palm or a fist. Gesture View to check last clicked shot and Glance View to swipe down for notifications even when the screen is off. Voice commands like Cheese, Smile, Whiskey, Kimchi and LG can be used. There is Fast Charging which can charge the battery up to 50 percent in under 40 minutes.

cannot unless you ask LG to customise the phone for you. the commands are preset.

Only the voice commands are fixed for photo-taking on the LG G Flex 2 ?
How about the gestures ?

opps, I think the LG G Flex 2 FLEXIBLE curved P-OLED screen was not as durable as thought, 50 kg pressure withstanding the front screen may break, and this was just a drop test~

The LG G Flex 2 is not meant to be dropped onto the hard floor leh. 50kg weight on it is different from a drop test.

Most other phones will also fail this kind of drop test.

 

[koreanlover]

Tear down video of LG G flex2. According to the video, the battery is not curved, however is flexible without the hard plastic casing of removable battery. I think it is due to the flexible battery requirement, that is why the battery cannot be removable.

If people buy the original flexible battery from LG, I don't there would be much problem if the battery is removable.

OMG. Cannot spam hastags, now people spamming paragraphs of the features.

This is damn nonsense leh....Don't like that leh, 2 days I was gone and I have 7 pages to read.

this drop test is tested on LG G Flex1 and not Flex2. the photos are also of Flex1.

the drop test from waist level done on Flex2 showed the phone is still working. the video is below.

same for gestures. the phone only recognised either a palm or fist.

 

[koreanlover]

The LG G Flex 2 is curved, so when taking selfies with the front facing 2.1MP camera, will the photos turn out different from other phones and will there be a blind spot somewhere ?

And how fast does the rear camera focus with its laser auto focus feature ?

After hearing a lot of good, here are some not so good reviews on LG G Flex 2

My G Flex 2 impressions: falling short of expectations

All-in-all, I am sorely disappointed with the G Flex 2, and were it to be in a contest for “biggest disappointment of 2015″, it would be neck-and-neck with the HTC One M9 in my book. Granted some of my gripes might be of a far more personal level (the “small” size for example) and your own impressions may differ.

Regardless of my own personal points, this device has lost momentum at a momentous meter, in no small thanks to the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge. Samsung has knocked the ball out of the park with the premium design factor, and meanwhile this plastic-plated piece comes across as being a pricey proposition.

Frankly, I think comparing one unique LG phone to another flagship HTC phone is like unfair...the least the reviewer can do is compare it to a LG G Flex...It is no wonder he/she was sorely disappointed.

Anyhow only.
