LG G3 - Specs and Features

LG has launched it's most awaited new flagship smartphone LG G3 yesterday. After lots of leaks and rumours, finally LG has launched this smartphone which is having some great features and upgraded specifications than it's previous model LG G2. With it's brilliant design and specs, it is going to give a great competition in the market. Let's see all the specs and features of this phone.

Design -
In we consider the design, it is similar to LG G2 or LG G Pro 2. LG has given a shiny, metallic look to the backside of the phone. They have used polycarbonate material which is lightweight as well as finger-print proof. Like LG G2, this smartphone also has buttons place on it's backside and not on front side. It is having power button and volume buttons on the backside. Backside of the phone is curved and all the buttons are flattened which makes it less prone to scratches. Dimensions of phone are 146.3*74.6*8.9 mm. LG has tried to give maximum possible area for display. Design-wise, G3 is really brilliant and worth it's price.


Display -
As I said above, LG has tried to give larger area for display. LG G3 is having 5.5 inch qHD display with resolution 2560*1440 pixel and pixel density 538 ppi. This resolution is four times the HD display and around two times the full HD display. Even the competitors of G3 such as Samsung Galaxy S5 and Sony Xperia Z2 are not having such high resolution. This is a great advantage of G3. It is having a large screen as well as high resolution.

Processor -
Processor is something that play a great role in functioning of the phone. LG G3 is powered by quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor which can be clocked upto 2.5 GHz. It is having an Andreno 330 GPU. It comes in two variants, one having 2 GB RAM and 16 GB internal memory and another is having 3 GB RAM and 32 GB internal memory. It is having a large expandable memory of 128 GB with the help of microSD card.

OS -
As expected, LG G3 comes with the latest version of Android i.e. Android KitKat 4.4.2 with LG's Optimus interface. Well, this interface is different than that of we have seen earlier. LG has tried to design flatted, rounded and less childish icons which suits better to it's design. Also, LG has introduced some new features such as 'Smart Notice' which gives you notices according to your location and time.

Camera and Battery-
LG G3 is having a 13MP rear camera and 2.1 MP front-facing camera. LG has introduced some new features such as OIS +, dual LED flash and laser autofocus to improve the picture quality and focus sharply.

Battery backup is something very important for every smartphone. LG G3 is having 3000 mAh  battery which does not differ from it's other competitor smartphone. We can't say about the battery backup right now, as the competitors Galaxy S5 and Xperia Z2 are not having qHD display and such a high resolution.

Price and release -
LG has launched G3 on 28th May. But, it is yet to come to India, so the price is not declared yet. It's expected price is around Rs. 52,000.

Final Words - 
If we compare the specs, features and price of this LG G3 with it's other competitor smartphones, then design-wise LG G3 is very good. Also it is having very good resolution. In case of camera, though it having some new features, it can't record 4k videos as done by Samsung Galaxy S5 and Xperia Z2. Also, we can't give opinion about batter backup right now. So, from design and display LG G3 is a good phone to buy. But, we can't give a final conclusion about LG G3 right now.
