LG G3

There's a hell of a lot to like about the LG G3. For a start it was the winner of the TrustedReviews Best Phone Award 2014. Its combination of clever design, excellent camera and top-notch screen made it a cult favourite that deserves to sell by the...

Pin-sharp QHD screen ; Good camera, particularly in low-light ; Extremely ergonomic for such a large phone ; Costs less than the competition ; Slick and simple UI

Average battery life ; Screen could be brighter ; Poor speaker

LG G3 review

A great handset that's only slightly let down by lacklustre design

Great screen ; Good camera in bright light ; Improved interface ; Can now be picked up cheap ; Android 5.0 feels smoother

Lightweight chassis disappoints ; QHD doesn't wow ; Screen isn't particularly bright ; Android 5.0 has slowed app boot-up times ; Not enough of Lollipop's visual sheen in update

A great handset that's more phablet than phone - and it's only slightly let down by lackluster design.

LG G3 review

The LG G3 matches brains with beauty in a classy, if oversized, phone

Remarkable hi-res display ; Laser-focused camera ; Slick new interface

It's SO big ; Plasticky back cover ; One-button control

LG G3

Everything we loved about its predecessor, and then some. LG has done it again

Stunning screen and video performance ; Intuitive user interface ; Usable smart features ; Strong camera ; Well designed ; High-res music support ; Powerful performance

Audio performance could be more exciting ; Size won’t be for everyone

Following any big predecessor is always a daunting task for any product, but the LG G3 has done it like a pro.

LG G3 review

The LG G3 follows hot on the heels of the acclaimed LG G2, a device that really pulled LG back into focus at the top-end of Android smartphones. The G2 set the bar high, a tough act to follow, especially having been on the market for less than a year...

Display offers lots of potential, design, great camera, power

Battery life isn't great, might simply be too big for some people

LG has thrown everything into the LG G3, looking to maintain the momentum of the earlier G2 and offer something that stands out from the pack. It achieves that with the Quad HD display, being the first of a new breed of super-high resolution smartphones.

LG G3 review | LG G3 specs, benchmarks

Why the LG G3 is still a great phone to buy in mid-2015

When the LG G3 came in at under £500 we were impressed. A year on and a phone that packs amazing features including a Quad HD display and a camera with a laser auto focus is one of the bargains of the market. The LG G3 is surprisingly small considering...

LG G3 vs Samsung Galaxy S5 comparison review

We'd happily own either of these two similarly specified smartphones, but with £90 between them the LG G3 is the more impressive device. Whereas the S5 is a touch faster and offers a fingerprint reader and heart-rate sensor, the G3 boasts a larger,...

LG G3 vs LG G Flex 2 smartphone comparison review

The LG G3 was our smartphone of 2014, and remains a must-have in this fresh new year. A flagship smartphone with an extraordinary display, it is a well-priced example of the best that modern smartphones can be. The G Flex 2 is LG's second-generation...

Price, performance and battery life remain unknown, although we can make solid assumptions on each. But on most other levels the LG G Flex 2 either matches or bests the LG G3. It is thinner, although heavier. But it has a newer OS (for now), the same...

LG G3 vs G3 S comparison review

Mini smartphones are now a standard part of the mobile market, offering consumers a cheaper and lower spec version of a firm's top-end flagship smartphone. The LG G3 S is effectively the LG G3 mini. It hasn't launched in the UK yet so we're comparing...

You will save just over £100 by opting for the more affordable LG G3 S over the flagship device. However, there are downgrades left, right and centre so you might want to save up the extra to get the best smartphone around. The G3 S only has a 720p...
