LG new flagship is finally here in the country! Got to test it out for a while.
In terms of design, LG always pushes things further by incorporating genuine leather in black, brown, and red with threaded stitches for LG G4 to provide a very sleek look and premium feel, . Fashionista may want this to pair of with their ensemble or ootd. Or you may opt for a futuristic 3D array pattern back covers in metallic grey, white ceramic, and shiny gold.
It is easy to hold that comfortably sits in your hands and has nice grip to it that can be attributed to LG G4 Slim Arc Design. The 5.5 inch QHD Quantum Display produces a very crisped, detailed, and rich colors.
Under the hood is a 1.8GHz Hexa-Core Snapdragon 808 Processor supported by 3GB RAM with 32GB Internal Phone Storage. MicroSD card slot is available for additional storage. The LG G4 with Android 5.1 Lollipop was quick and I hardly experience any lags considering many apps run on the background as there were many who tested it before i got my hands on it.
On to its camera features for which I think is the LG G4 major selling point. The 16MP primary rear camera is very snappy, accurately focuses your target, and captures it in great detail. With F1.8 lens it let you take in more light that is very ideal for low light capture. With Manual Mode. you get to experience taking shots like a pro by changing you ISO (50-2700) settings to control noise and sensitivity, Shutter Speed (1/6000 sec to 30 secs) for long exposure, White Balance and Manual Focus.

For connectivity, you have the complete range from the normal WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS to USB-OTG, MHL or HDMI via slimport and also NFC. It is a Dual SIM handset so you get to have more networks available to you.
Battery is at 3000mAh which should be sufficient for your moderate use of phone functions, internet and games. You do need a Quick Circle Case and Wireless charger to wirelessly charge your G4.
One comment though, the leather back is prone to wear and tear as seen o the picture above so guess need to be careful and stay away from sharp objects.
Overall, LG G4 is on the forefront again in terms of design, built, optics and functionality. At a glance, you can clearly distinguished the LG aesthetics to standout. Incredible built quality is assured with well made and quality polycarbonate. Lots of customizations for the User and great value added apps. Excellent Optics that let you capture moments in focus like a pro in a snap. LG might once again snag the King of Phones title this year.
