As a phone repair guy.  I love seeing those screws under the back cover.

In 2016 I absolutely rocked G4. This brings me right back to 10th grade. My favorite part is when he said "it's got a 5.5 inch display so it's a pretty big phone." Oh man XD. I didn't care when the news broke that LG mobile went under, but looking back, It's almost a shame to think about how their phones could've progressed differently, or maybe that's just my nostalgia speaking.

I LOVE the quality of ur videos, not just the actually resolutions but the actual quality that makes a mkbhd video a mkbhd video, the video pan and lovely Marco shot I LOVE and the subtle but u can still hear it music in the background. U are my favourite YouTuber on your tube that I actually get excited for the lovely animations and lovely camera zooms and pans, good on ya marquees! Please keep up the excellent job that u are doing!

I had this phone and I loved it. It was my first "high-end" smartphone and I saved money for an year in order to be able to afford it. I used it for two years and have never been more happy with a smartphone. Especially the camera was amazing. And then it started to boot-loop. A sad ending to a great story.

"LG says it is a plastic infused with metal, but I can't really tell.
So I'm gonna call it plastic"

HAH

I love how his last video explains YouTube video processing yet everyone is still asking, "WHY IS IT ONLY IN 360P?!"... It takes time to process (encode/compress) the original video file that he uploaded.

Love the idea of buttons on the back. Seems super convenient on a bigger sized phone. Way easier to keep your grip.

It's 2018 and I'm watching this on my original G4 with the red leather backing super comfortable. Runs great never had a boot loop issue. Cheers!

your motion designer forgot to flip "G4" text vertically in the reflection at 0:10

Didn't even know about the double-tap picture snapping.. a year after owning it lol.

[AlexWohlbruck]

Lol this is great when played at half speed. He sounds like he's drunk.

[VespertiliKildem]

Ok the approval face at 3:17 was killer.
You are very serious in your videos, so everytime you "derail" from the script, you're very funny.

[eh]

I'm watching this on my G4... anyone else?

[GH]

Is it just me who thinks that the G4's pic of that horse is better than the S6's ?

[sewashburn]

Great job doing the review. You sold me on the phone. You are very articulate and have a great voice for the video (no mumbling and no shouting). Thank you for taking the time to do the video.

Marques Brownlee you are a beast on the tech reviews☺ and Congratulations on your Bachelor Degree👏👏👏

Was looking for the 2024 LG G4 Oled tv and found this gem.

[BrentSalamorin]

Still at 360p. How long do we have to wait to watch this bad boy get reviewed? Haha

[CollegeTalkTV]

My biggest complaint is the battery life.

[GabrielIgnacio]

Ah, the G4 and V10 were devices that I thought was gonna push LG up higher to potentially combat the G4 display retention issues and that infamous bootloop of death occurred. Those problems also manifested themselves in the V10 as well and in smaller cases, the G5 and V30, with the G6 having isolated cases of image retention on the display.

That being said, I still love my V10. Got it fixed back up with a new display and frame and using it as another camera buddy paired with a Zhiyun Smooth 4 for vidya situations where I find my Sony a6300 too clumsy
