This is LG’s new leather-bound smartphone, the G4

The G4 is LG’s newest flagship smartphone. It has a 5.5-inch, 2560 x 1440 pixel QHD IPS display, 16-megapixel camera, and a Snapdragon 808 processor and runs Android 5.1 Lollipop. The G4 looks similar to last year’s G3, but it has a slight curve and comes with an optional leather back instead of the glossy plastic of the prior model. It will be available in the US in late May or early June.

Z-Axis image stabilization? Yes, please! Can't wait to review this!

You forgot to talk about the RAW capabilities of the camera. In my opinion, this is its most standout feature. Can't wait to see how it performs.

Well played LG, I think you will keep receiving more phone awards.
I think maybe a metal framework (without loosing the feature of removable back) and fingerprint scanner, would be the perfect phone for me.

The phone looks good (and I'm sure it will be good), but those icons are just terrible. Why would they put a square around some of the icons but not all of them? So tasteless.

Awesome. Love LGs take on phones. Hoping for a WP version.

Hey The Verge, the Mi4 from Xiaomi also uses a f1.8 lens from Sony.

I have an LG G2, i'm still not convinced by this, i'll have to wait for the reviews, and see if it's worth upgrading, the LG G2 is still an awesome phone.

Looks like it'll be a great device.  Disappointing there's no quick charging, but the battery life will probably be solid anyway.  Inclusion of expandable storage is great too, it'll make this an easy choice for a lot of people.

All high end phones made in 2015 should have a front facing speakers. That's a must.

it will make you ditch your DSLR? Oh LG, don't make me laugh...

[carvesk]

Thank you LG for keeping the ability to change battery and upgrade the microSD, I hate that samsung S6 got rid of that capability.

I liked the g3 roundness theme in it's icons more. Square is for squares. A curved phone with square icons? Want my round icons back please

[ncdfan]

The icons are ugly, but that leather removable back is awesome and the camera looks like it has serious potential.

What camera is on the table on minute 1:34?

[JasonLock]

If I were to switch from iOS this might be where I land. Like the camera. Like the removable back. Don't have much issue myself with the icons.

LG goes in the right direction IMO. not bigger, but better camera and screen. I am still fully content with my nexus 5 but I'd buy that!

[MrWerirdguy]

Honestly, I dont get why so many people complain about the looks of LG's sofware. You can always download the googlenow launcher, and solve all your problems. (almost)

[SuperZeroon]

[cornelisvandijkhuizen]

Is Bradley Cooper reviewing phones now?

[HypertronicTeddy]
