True. I don't feel that 808 has any big difference much compared to 810.

sigh kinda stuck in dilemma between G4 and Huawei P8. Gonna wait until August to see if Huawei releases the 64GB variant in Singapore otherwise I'll probably hoot the G4

G4 will b interesting...3rd party price had been around 750..a huge drop against its launch couple of month.

 

[fortunecat]

oh no..

don't be sad bro, part and parcel of technology, at least you had it early and satisfied your craving for it

any Telco having special promotion for G4 now if i sign up new line?

All telcos have the battery pack promo and if you buy leather they give you a leather quick circle cover.

Haha @waterballoon think you better do more homework. The reason why LG went with 808 instead of 810 as planned is because 810 has overheating issue. This issue is well published across many android blogs and also acknowledged by Qualcom. Hence 808 is technically an "upgrade" not downgrade.

I definitely disagree

I meant a downgrade in terms of benchmarks and raw power. Let's not deceive ourselves to say that 808 outperforms 810....... it doesn't.

sure 810 overheats and I hate it too but to say that 808 is better? LOL maybe we have different definitions for hardware upgrade la hor

That is caused by the screen responsiveness as discussed in the previous pages. Are you using glass protector?

Unless you play tons of games and always timed them how fast in milliseconds they launch, you won't find any difference between different cpus for this year or even last year's.

I definitely agree.

but I think some of us here need to re-evaluate some terms.

to say that Huawei P8 is a midrange phone lol.. I mean I'm not a huge fan of any brand but the underestimation of China brands is silly at best.

going on to say a Huawei flagship is "midrange" while the LG G4 which clearly used an inferior SoC for 2015's lineup in terms of RAW POWER AND BENCHMARK numbers (importance up to individual's perspective) is "top of the line" s a joke.

if the Huawei P8 is a "midrange" to some people here, then the G4 is most certainly a midrange phone too.

and you know what, they both aren't. they're both flagships.

so that person should be ashamed of himself for throwing terms like that around loosely.

LMGTFY..

Snapdragon 810 seems to throttles heavily when it overheats. It is a flawed SoC, Qualcom really ****ed up the 810. Otherwise it will be in the G4. G4 is still a FLAGSHIP phone, whether you accept it or not.

can you go back and review and tell me where i said the G4 is NOT a flagship to me?

i was annoyed because someone pointed out that the Huawei P8 is "Midrange" when I was deciding between it and the G4, and i was sarcastic and said by that ignorant standard the G4 probably is "midrange" too since it uses the less power SD808...??

are you guys incapable of reading or something? look SD808 is inferior to 810 in terms of raw power.

808... IS..... INFERIOR... TO..... 810.... IN TERMS OF... RAW.. POWER....

i hope it gets drilled into all your thick numb skulls!

and AGAIN....

thre is... NOTHING... WRONG... with the 808..... It's just.. really less... POWERFUL... than.... the..... 810.....

THERE, you guys got it?????????? Jesus seriously while the G4 is a stellar phone it's no reason to say the Huawei P8 is midrange when it's not like LG is using top-of-top SoC for its flagship *rolls eyes*... stupidity ensues.

 

[platee]

G4 still havent got root yet?

G4 still havent got root yet?

have you checked XDA?

I think there's a pre-rooted V10A ROM. also there should be TWRP available liao. probably no custom ROMs yet though

Chill la, bro, you are going to burst your own balloon if this goes on. Chill chill...

just because someone cannot accept Huawei P8 is "Midrange"phone.

 

[studmufn]

yes.. i even removed the glass screen protector that i had on and it's the same.
recently tried using my old G3 and it's so much smoother with no mistouches. sigh...

Hi guys, have a question for current users of this phone, do you guys experience any issues with the touchscreen being unresponsive / mistouches etc?
