nope sorry.

Speaker is pretty good actually. It's sharp and loud. Not exactly boom sound, but better than my Z1, even if it is back facing.

Got mine today Out of curiosity, how does the screen seem to anybody else? White's seem very subtlety yellow (warm) on mine, especially when you compare it to lets say, my main desktop IPS monitor. From reviews, the G4 isn't meant to have bad battery life (averaging in about 4 hrs 30, which is decent but not amazing)

Small things annoy me, like I can't have a live wallpaper on my lockscreen, nor can I find the way to change the lock-screen unlock effect.

When you change the lock screen to swipe, you can change the animations they're below it in settings, or is that not what you mean?

I'm finding the battery life on par with my G2, I had it on 100% coming into work yesterday (8am) and it was on 9% at 11 o clock last night. I'm a pretty heavy user, watching youtube videos, imgur, spotify and the usual social media so I thought that was pretty decent.

Love the feel in the hand, for a big device it doesn't feel cumbersome.

Also on the camera, people don't believe that I've taken the pictures because they look so good! Not a camera expert though so I'm not the best to be reviewing the camera.

Only one thing I'd like to change, I'd like to be able to change the size of the icons on the home screen. Oh and when I press the 'Clear All' in the recent apps in seems a little slow.

Mine is showing export from Bologna on Friday, still delivery for Wednesday.
I'd say your tracking just has a glitch, give it time. It will prob update again within 24 hours.

If it does fail, your contract is with the seller, not ups.

Redundo

Just so you guys all know, komplett.ie have the LG G4 in stock for 649.00 (plastic back).

Are irish operators not subsidising the g4? Its supposed to be the best handset of the year so why is it not in the shops???????

Thanks for that pat. I didn't know lg weren't in the market here. With the s6 battery life issues it doesn't leave much options then. I had thought huawei p8 or lg g4 so this narrows options to 1!

Any questions, feel free to ask. I'll be away for the next couple days but I'll answer any when I get back.

I haven't had it yet for a normal couple of days. I've heard that battery life gets more consistent after a few charge cycles. I'll report back in a couple days now I'm back home/work.

My guess is going to be under 3 hours SoT. I was hoping for 5+.

mine showing as Barking now. as of 3pm
im assuming yours is on a similar course.

I think it would be cool if you could have a gps real time logger for any parcel you want.

I'm finding the SOT to be fantastic. 41% remaining with 3hrs 50 screen on time. 11 hrs 20 min off charger Seriously impressed. This is with heavy draining battery life apps such as Facebook installed.

Thats disappointing. Im getting 6 or so hrs on my current phone.

Facebook, Gmail, Internet and google play music.

So is it 11 hours once fully charged or 4 hours? Seems like a big difference!

Interrobang

I'm in a holding pattern now, trying to decide between the G4 and the G3. Those of you who have used both, does the G4 justify the extra spend?

N64

11 hours refers to how long the device has actually been on for (incl. standby) 4 hours refers to how long the screen has been on for.

Squeeonline

57% remaining
Been using for 8hrs 34min
Estimated time remaining 9hrs 37m
Screen on 46 min = 10% battery use.
Like an hour and half listening to spotify (only trying it out, I don't like streaming.

me=not happy.

I have a feeling location pinging is draining the battery but cant be sure since I can't root and look at wakelocks.

N64

I have location on and it dosen't effect anything. Try disabling the smart notice ****e

Smart settings? I like that.

Otherwise I'm using Nova launcher so very little default LG remains already!

edit: Does anyone else notice that the battery sits at 100% for ages then drops? I estimate that 100% lasts for about 3-5% of normal. Been listening to podcasts, flicked through reddit briefly, 17 min SoT and still at 100%.

Nope I'm at 92% with 18mins SoT
