We thought that most smartphone manufacturers had abandoned the high-end segment, crushed by Apple in favor of medium range, volumes of quality. But two exceptions prove the rule. If HTC One dares with the M9, if Samsung intends to rub apple with Galaxy S6, it will not be the only South Korean to fight on this ground since LG today unveiled the new version of its flagship.
The G4, that’s his name, takes the sober and slightly curved design of its predecessor, the G3, according to the manufacturer ensuring resistance 20% higher and better grip. Or.
It has a Quad HD 5-inch screen (2560×1440) slightly curved like G Flex family (but less pronounced) equipped with Quantum Dots technology, which would provide contrast 50% superior to conventional qHD screens, a Snapdragon 808-6 hearts Qualcomm (a modified too hot 810) clocked at 1.8 GHz and 3 GB of RAM, all accompanied by Android 5.1 an overcoat home.
In addition to these specifications, LG is how he differentiates Apple or Samsung? The giant put particularly on the quality of the screen, similar to the S6, and finishing the smartphone notably through a back cover made of genuine leather. The question is whether the leather is not too fragile face to wear, stains, scratches, everyday life … The less careful can opt for a classic hull, plastic …
Without really be original, LG also emphasizes the quality of its photo sensor to 16 megapixels thought to be effective in difficult conditions (with optical f1.8 and 50 possible settings). It is also possible to record and play videos in 4K or enjoy a sensor on the front of 8 MP for selfies. Again, the idea is to go beat Samsung on this ground where S6 is widely acclaimed. Battery side (removable), LG promises an autonomy normal use day thanks to its 3000 mAh.
As for prices, the G4 will be in the range of high-end handsets with a price of 699 euros for the leather version, and 649 euros for plastic versions. It will be released on June 5
With this new terminal, LG’s goal is clear:. Confirm or amplify Manufacturer encouraging results in recent months. Indeed, LG is now in a good current. Having fallen into the depths of the world rankings, the conglomerate has started a spectacular recovery, precisely supported by the premium range G including the G3.
In Q3 2014, sales were also up by 40%. However, its global market share is still low: 4% in Q4 2014, according to IDC
