A cheaper alternative to the S6 plus removable storage and memory card. The best all round phone of 2015 and that's from someone who is very pro Samsung. Come on Samsung, stop trying to copy Apple and give us a removable battery and stop trying to rip us off by having to buy a bigger phone capacity. Memory is cheap and I for one have been lost to LG.

Unbelievable. Replacement order should have been delivered yesterday, this morning "Lost in transit".
I can't even reorder it from Amazon as it's no longer offered by them.

i received my lg g4 today. it has android 5.1 should i update it to 5.1.1 and also does anyone know how to play full hd videos on YouTube as it only goes upto to 720p
thanks

Mine says 5.1 but whe i checked for update it says am up to date. Wonder why that is.

G4 will not be getting 5.1.1 yet
think it will go to Android 6.0
another down side to a non nexus device, its a guessing game when updates come through

I just tested this out for you on my G4. When you are playing a YouTube video press on the top right 3 vertical dots and choose Quality then 1080p. Not all YouTube videos have the option. The following one works fine on my phone: https://youtu.be/9Sc-ir2UwGU

That's a shame. Been looking forward to it too. Liking the build, camera and the second screen. Problem with having 2 flagship-quality phones I guess. Limited release.

You may have to file the slot bigger where the charger lead goes in as some leads have a fatter plastic bit on the lead where it plugs in. the slot on mine was just a tad too small. It's the same with the ones on Amazon but bought from ebay as they were cheaper. See the reviews from amazon below. It's a different make but identical to the one I bought. All other ports and cut outs are perfect and it has the raised bezel around the camera lens to protect it. Make sure you get a tempered glass screen protector. Mine is 0.3mm thick and works ok although I may try a slightly thinner one next time.
Although it doesn't say I don't think it's ideal for the leather back G4's. I would also recommend a screen protector as the hole for the quick circle is a hole.
Can you give me the eBay link please, so that I can have a look at it. I haven't took the plunge and bought the phone yet. But I think I will have, by midnight.
Well, call me disappointed, it looks like LG is following Samsung and may be deciding NOT to release the V10 here in the UK. I've just sent them a tweet calling out Samsung not releasing the Note 5 here, and hoping that they DO release the V10 here. Sheesh.
Otherwise I'm getting an iPhone 6S Plus.

I don't think its meant for the leather backed cases. Had mine for 3 months now and no cracks. Are you sure it was a genuine Nillkin and not a copy, not that you would be able to tell perhaps.

A really good price, but I be waiting for the LG V10. Finally a device that has the potential to hold its ground in the audio department versus the Apple and HTC devices.
Hot from me, but like I said, I'm going for the V10.

Nillkin quick circle cases are nice for these. I have the brown one for mine. Looks like the brown leather standard case. It has wake and sleep as well which is useful and it stays shut. Can recommend this case bought on the bay. Can give you link to the same seller if you want. £7.98 inc quick post with 100% feedback.
BruTamUK to Smartguy1
10 Oct 15#83
I bought the Nillkin brown leather case after good reviews last week and it's cracked around the top corners already. I don't think it's suited for the leather back g4's. Probably a better fit on the plastic back.
Disappointed really as it's a great looking case.
Smartguy1
10 Oct 15#81
Would you really want to buy from someone called 'Gullible' lol. It's probably £64 just for the leather back without phone. It's gone now but you can still buy one for £2,600 + haha. I have this phone and love it.

I have the G2 and get around 2 days battery life from it; how does the G4 compare?
f1refox to WiZZer
10 Oct 151#78
It's not as good as the G2. It has the same size battery but higher spec. I would say it's around 1/3 less depending on use. You can carry a spare though as its removable.

Bought this 2 weeks ago from Amazon around the same price. Good phone and it's the best place to buy it. Don't trust the other cheap websites that get their phones from hong kong and china.
messiahcomplex8
10 Oct 15#75
Hmmm, are you sure it has wireless charging? Was looking online and it can be added with cases and stuff but doesn't seem to have it as standard? (I might be missing something) Other than that slowly coming round to the G4, especially as Oneplus has such a weird buying system and problems with CS in the past I've seen...
Hmmm, thanks for the info!

Can anyone who has one of these comment on the lack of fast charging on this phone? Recently I've been spoilt by fast charging and not sure I could go back to a phone which doesn't have this feature.
these are great phones much better than the g3..
