LG G4 Review: A Competent, Capable Android Alternative

Hot Hardware published a review on the LG G4: A Competent, Capable Android Alternative

A quote from the article:
The LG G4 is being marketed as a high-end, flagship device and you may wonder why there's a six-core Snapdragon 808 within rather than an octa-core Snapdragon 810. Recently, a Qualcomm spokesperson answered this very question: "The difference between the chips is that the 810 is scaled for end-to-end 4K and it's our flagship. The 808 scales for end-to-end 2k and it still captures 4k video but it's not built to display 4k natively on a screen."

In other words, the LG G4 apparently was engineered to work efficiently with its 2560x1440 Quad HD display.

With an off-contract starting price of $650 (2 year contract MSRP not final yet), the LG G4 is right in line with other hero devices like the iPhone 6 and Galaxy S 6. We'll seek to answer two primary questions in this review. First, is the G4 worthy of being classified in with flagships such as the afformentioned? Second, is the G4 somehow differentiated enough to be the go-to choice for a smaller niche that want features like expandable storage and a removable battery?

Let's find out...
