March 2014 was the first time LG introduced their LG_G-flex at their Tech-Show in Delhi. It was a very nice attempt to re-imagine the smartphones. The phone looked quite well and was nice with its Specs but even if the curved display was path breaking, the screen resolution and camera credentials didn't justify the then steep price tag. Now after an year LG is coming with their all new LG_G-flex2 at the 2015 Tech-Show India. This second Gen have learned from the flaws of its predecessor. now the big question is 'is this form factor ready to go mainstream?'.
Lately the iphone 6-Plus 'Bendgate' video's and images went viral all over the internet. The G-flex2 bents slightly by its own design, don't expect it to flex a zillion degrees though when quite a few flagship devices are playing it well! LG deserves appreciation for bringing in the 'bending' rule to this platform. when going through the Build-in quality the LG_G-flex2 have taken a big leap comparing to its first Gen. The weight is slightly less and the screen inches have gone down from 6 to 5.5 inch. It not only makes it easier to fit in to that tight jeans's but is also easier to press against your ear for phone calls. The screen resolution has also gone up from 245-PPI to 403-PPI. On papers 403 per inch may not be the best in class,but the curved screen display makes watching videos an amazing experience. With a better speaker entertainment capabilities of the device could have been better!!
The new rear key really works for the device's curved shape, No volume rocker or hot keys are there to disrupt the elegant lines around the device. At first the rear key gets a bit getting used to but works without a fuss once you start the switching. A unique 'self-heal' coat instantly smoothness scratch's out. While it may work for untended brushes with your car keys it's not ready for a colleague's scratches with a blade!
When we go through the hardware ,LG G-flex2 is the first to bring the snapdragon 810 procrssor(64 Bit Octa-core) to the market.
