Abstract: The LG G Flex is one of the most expensive smartphones you can buy at £650. For that amount of money you should expect top of the range perfection from a handset. What you get with the G Flex is certainly different, but we aren't sure a purchase would be ...

The LG G Flex comes with some impressive innovations, with its curved screen aiding video viewing and ergonomics, and its self-healing back protecting the phone against light wear and tear.However, it's a device that falls short of its potential, given th...
Unique curved design, Great battery life, Impressive Android skinning
No memory expansion, Poor screen considering handset cost, Expensive
The LG G Flex seems to be a lot more about showing off what can be done, rather than actually producing a compelling handset that lots of people will want to buy. If you like the way LG tweaks Android and the design feature of having volume and power but...
If you're going to get one of these, go into Settings->Display and tweak the brightness up a bit (but keep it on “auto”), then set the screen timeout to more than 15 seconds, change “Screen mode” to vivid and turn off the “auto adjust screen tone”. It doe...

Distinctive style, powerful processor, good battery life
Expensive, camera not great, no expandable memory
The LG G Flex is certainly an attention grabber, with its curved, bendy body, rear-mounted controls and huge screen. But it's mostly a disappointment with its sub-par display and camera taking the shine off its innovations and making the high price seem...
Distinctive design, Great battery life, Big screen, Useful software touches, High-res music capability
720p screen, Camera could be better, No microSD slot, Expensive
There's no doubt that the LG G Flex is an impressive phone. Its problem is it has a seriously capable smaller brother in the G2 at nearly half the price, and a number of big-screen competitors snapping at its heels with full HD screens.At this price, we c...
Striking curved design, Powerful processor means great performance, Flexible construction protects against impacts, ‘Self-healing' back protects from scratches
Only a 720p screen, Expensive, A bit awkward to use one-handed
Overall, the LG G Flex is a powerful phone offering exceptional performance.The G Flex is a bit of a mixed bag then: on the one hand, it's a striking attention-grabber of a phone with some truly unique technology. But on the other, the software is nothing...
Ginormous battery life for a phone this size, High performance and responsiveness, Nice design, wellfinished body, Sound quality
Screen resolution, Display: posterisation and finger trails are just inconceivable in 2014, Mediocre camera with no optical image stabiliser, Nonexpandable memory
The G Flex is supposed to be a sort of crowning jewel for LG, a product symbolic of the future of mobile devices. But its greatest asset is also its greatest enemy: the curved screen, whose utility is still open for debate, that has lower resolution than ...
