LG G4 (CDMA)

Had a G2 for a week, and while in case it slid off a coffee table and it broke e.g. Screen cracked and wouldn't take any touch input.

Beautiful phone, but way, way to fragile

Won't get a small bezal phone ever again

NFC availability seems like table stakes in the post-2014 phone world.

This review made no mention?

Is there or isn't there? Deal breaker for me.

Can these be restored by any method?

Eric, there is one point you keep hammering that I beg to differ with you on. I understand you HATE plastic, but that doesn't mean "there's no point to buying the plastic version".

I ALWAYS put my phone in a case to protect it. Once its in an Otterbox or something similar you can't tell if its plastic or leather (or if its plastic or a metal/glass phone for that matter really). So one could argue as well that unless you were't going to use a case at all there's no point to paying extra for leather (that's going to be hidden inside the case).

Personally I think people are putting way too much emphasis on the materials and not on the performance of phones. I've had plastic phones and have a metal/glass one now. With it in a case you...

I have been a user of Samsung phones for a long time. I use my phones all day every day. I dropped 8 to 10 calls per day in some cases, where it was an unlisted number I could not reach the customer back unless they called me right back. After complaining about this problem with my carrier, they tried to replaced my Samsung phone with another Samsung phone. They replaced 2 Sim cards. After my Goggling my problem with a Samsung phone and reading about my dropping so very many calls. There were a lot of complaints on line about dropping calls. I asked the carrier to exchange the phone with another brand, they refused to replace the phone. They told me to call Samsung directly. I did that and got no where. I purchased an LGG4 with anothe...

This phone sounds like almost the perfect thing for me, except for that HUGE size. I would be happy with a 4.7", or TOPS a 5.0". Why so big??

I wish LG releases a mini version with the same components and performance.

It would be awesome if any other company besides Sony also made high-end COMPACT versions of their flagships, since they're ALL TOO BIG for my hands :-(

So I tried to preorder the G4 and it seems since I'm a existing customer or because I'm paying full price. It will only allow me to order the G4 with the grey plastic back. 😲
I try to select the other backs and it doesn't do anything.

Anyone else experience this?

Update: It seems if I go through as a new customer I can only get grey as well. Not the black leather.
Come on Verizon!

Soooo, why is Sony the only company who makes good, actually compact phones with the same internals as their larger siblings? Anything 5" and above is too big, even the 4.6" Z3 Compact is basically the largest I'd ever want a phone...

And then I don't get "randomly" selected...and now I get SPAM forever from LG

No thanks

I'm not really a glitz and glamour man. However, I do like nice things but, I don't need a phone to express my tastes. I have my house and cars to do this. My phone must retain the most functionality and self control as possible. After sale services in costs and support is more important than the device itself. Cheap battery replacement without down time and periodic inspections of the batteries are crucial to optimum performance before it's too late.

I waited to see what LG brought to the table. Our contract is up very soon and even though we enjoyed our last three Samsung S Series phones, we have elected to seriously consider LG due to retaining control over the power source and being able to allocate our memory where WE want without h...

Can we also have a Compact G4 Full featured full price , long lasting Battery?

Maybe 4.8" to 5" screen- Pocket Power .

what happens with the Note 5. But if the battery is sealed in and there's no memory card slot, this phone will be a serious contender as my next device. I love the decision to go with leather. It seems there are premium materials that don't hinder key functionality after all. Phonescoop may think LG is foolish not to follow lockstep with the trends started by Apple, but personally I think Apple will go the way of most trends. LG has the foresight to do something not just different, but better. I applaud LG for making a better device, rather than imitating a worse one.

Going to give the Galaxy S6 a run for its money!
