LG Electronics has unveiled today its eagerly anticipated LG G4 smartphone at launch events held simultaneously in New York, London, Paris, Singapore, Istanbul and Seoul.

The LG G4 will be available in handcrafted, genuine full grain leather in six beautiful colors. The colors of the leather on the G4 are rich with warm tones that look authentic and change over time. The vegetable tanned leather is environmentally friendly and can be recycled easily. Other material options for the G4 rear cover include pure Ceramic White with 3D patterns, artisan-forged Metallic Gray as well lustrous, Shiny Gold.

The  LG G4 has full metal designs, which is defined by the Slim Arc, which runs along its entire body, highlighted by a display with a subtle curvature. More than just a design accent, Slim Arc offers 20 percent better durability than a flat smartphone in face-down drops and gives the smartphone a more comfortable and secure feel in the hand.

In the LG G4, the icon colors are more vibrant with icons that have rounded corners, consistent with the Slim Arc design. The Smart Notice widget automatically changes its background and text color based on the home screen image selected by the user.

The LG G4 is the first smartphone to feature LG Display’s new 5.5-inch IPS Quantum Display (2560 x 1440, 538ppi), which is claimed to offer 20 percent greater color reproduction, 25 percent improvement in brightness and 50 percent greater contrast. It is the first Quad HD display to employ Advanced In-Cell Touch (AIT) technology, which combines the LCD and touch sensor into a single layer to provide better color reproduction and touch sensitivity.

The LG G4 runs on Android Lollipop OS, and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor with X10 LTE, coupled with 3GB RAM and 32GB of internal storage with the provision of expansion with microSD card. It is fuelled by a high-capacity 3,000mAh removable battery, which is estimated to last 20 percent longer than the G3, from the same capacity battery.

The LG G4 is equipped with 16MP rear camera, which is capable of capturing images even under low-light.  The camera module features a wide F1.8 aperture lens that allows 80 percent more light to reach the sensor. For selfie crazy people, this phone has 8MP front-facing camera for sharp, detailed portraits and group shots.

The LG G4 is the first phone to incorporate upgraded UX 4.0, which has following feature:

  • Quick Shot allows customers to take pictures without opening the camera app by double tapping the phone’s Rear Key while the display is off.
  • The new Gallery makes it extremely fast to scroll through thousands of pictures and view them on a timeline.
  • Event Pocket allows users to create one, unified calendar by dragging and dropping appointments and activities from multiple calendars and social media sites.
  • The improved Smart Notice provides more personalized notifications for weather, travel and more by analyzing habits, such as how a user commutes to work.
  • Quick Help allows users to search for instant answers to any questions about operating the LG G4, right in the Smart Notice widget.

Besides above,  Google Office comes pre-installed on the LG G4 for easy collaboration on-the-go and G4 owners will receive an additional 100GB of Google Drive storage free for two years. With MirrorLink and LG G4, owners of Volkswagen vehicles will be able to view a car-friendly version of the G4 interface on the in-dash display for full integration with contacts, navigation and music on the smartphone.

The LG G4 will face competition from Samsung Galaxy S6 & S6 Edge and HTC One M9+. In India, the LG G4 is expected to be priced in the range of Rs. 45000 to 50,000.
