LG G4: 5 Things to Know Before Buying! #Helpful Post

the LG g4 is here but before you pick

one up these are five things you need to

know so what's up guys Jonathan here

with TLD hope you guys are doing well

the g4 is in the house I've spent some

time with it and not only are these my

impressions but five of the more

important points but I think you should

take into consideration before picking

one up the first being the camera is

really good so I'm almost done wrap it

up my galaxy s6 with you and I can

without a doubt say that it might be one

of the best cameras on a smartphone this

year but the g4 might have just changed

that it boasts a 16 megapixel rear

shooter was a wide-open F 1.8 aperture

and that apertures was going to help out

with low-light performance and also give

you that nice blurred out background

shot with the subject in focus you

combine that with super fast autofocus

DSLR light control and the ability to

shoot RAW you have some serious business

going on in the camera department now I

want to emphasize that it's DSLR like

and it's not going to replace one but

it's still going to do a really good job

and I got a chance to shoot with it and

was really impressed with it so far from

what I can tell because it shoots in raw

and that's such a big file it gives you

a lower resolution preview and at first

when I was looking back at my pictures I

took I thought I was going crazy and

could not get it in focus but once you

actually zoom in a little bit you can

see how crispy and how detailed those

photos are it's kind of ridiculous so I

think it's safe to say the g4 is

definitely part of team Krispy in fact

it might be the captain of Team crispy

and I'm really curious to see how it

compares against the galaxy s6 if you

guys want to see a full comparison

definitely let me know by hitting that

like button the next thing you need to

know is that the buttons are on the back

now let me preface this by stating yes I

know it's not a new feature the g-force

predecessor of the g3 also had buttons

on the back but for someone coming from

any other phone on the planet without

buttons on the back they might be a

little thrown off at first it's not the

end-all be-all magical location for

button placement but it works well once

you get used to it and getting used to

it is what you need to take away from

this video I think for most of us

anything outside our comfort zone

generally tends to push us away

initially and right back to something we

are comfortable with so if you like

everything else about this phone just

give it some time you will get used to

it

now the third thing you need to know is

that you shouldn't be worried about the

processor or performance the big thing

in mobile right now is

a core or octa-core processor so in

theory an eight-core should

automatically be better than a 6-quart

right not exactly there's a lot more

that goes into how fast the phone

performs or more importantly feels the

g4 opted to go with a six-course

Snapdragon 808 over the eight core

Snapdragon 810 in the m9 or G flex 2 for

example the 810 is technically 2-4 core

processors while the 808 is a dual core

plus a quad core not only is the 808

surprisingly close and performance but

the 810 ends up throttling when it heats

up and performance dips considerably so

really it comes down to not letting

yourself get caught into these spec

craze or feeling like you have an

inferior phone because you have two less

cores from initial impressions the g4 is

really snappy but I will definitely

touch more upon that in my full review

so next up in what you should know is

that the g4 has a replaceable battery

and microSD card slot which in this day

and age in terms of flagships is a

rarity to be specific it is a 3000

milliamp hour removable battery which

should get you pretty solid battery life

and that micro SD card slot supports

cards up to 2 terabytes now real quick

before you get overly excited and end up

needing a wet-nap there's two things you

got to realize one there aren't microSD

cards up to that capacity yet and two

when they arrive they're going to be

really expensive obviously just because

you're probably not going to have two

terabytes of micro SD card storage in

there that's not going to be a reason to

shy away from the phone you can pick up

some pretty solid capacities for really

cheap and I'll post a few down below in

case you are picking up a g4 now the

last thing to know is that the screen is

beautiful but it sizes in at 5.5 inches

so I think for most people it's slightly

outside the ideal one-handed comfort

zone because for me the sweet spot is

between 4.7 and 5.1 inches so just keep

that in mind before picking up the g4

but besides that it is an amazing

looking display it packs resolution of

2560 by 1440 on an IPS LCD display it's

sharp

vibrant and crispy as hell so regardless

of what type of media you're consuming

whether it be video your reading text or

playing games it is downright just an

enjoyable experience aside from that
