aamir, 22 Aug 2014hi, what about the battery life? I need to keep on Wifi or data all the time. plz inform you... moreI only use data via 3g so never have wifi turned on. I streamed 3g content (youtube, play movies etc) for pretty much 7 hrs solid @ 55% brightness in a dodgy signal area so battery is definitely good for heavy use. My Xperia Z gave about 3 hrs for comparable usage if that helps as a comparison.My Flex has been on for 7 hrs + since full charge, of which 3.5 hrs have been movie streaming/web browsing and battery's now at 65%.

One thing that's particularly good is very low battery drain when screen's off. Overnight it might loose 1 or 2 % but sometimes it even gains a couple of % throughout the night, go figure??

Samar, 20 Aug 2014I am using G Flex from one month and facing problem in You Tube as picture turns green every t... moreI also had a problem with green video on Youtube after updating to KitKat, but simply deinstalling the Youtube update in GooglePlay and updating it again fixed it.

Other than that, fantastic device so far. The only thing that's bothering me a bit is that Knock On does not work when Knock Code is enabled (Knock Off still works, luckily), as sometimes I would like to just get a quick look without unlocking the screen. But that's a minor thing. :)
Before I got it, I was a bit worried about the screen because of low ppi, but there's nothing to worry about, the screen looks absolutely beautiful.

Hi, thought I'd share my experiences with the G Flex. Was originally gonna go into detail but would be here far too long so very brief rundown as follows:

The screen is so much nicer than pixel peeping reviewers would have you believe. Yes there are flaws (ghosting in certain scenarios and noise in grey scenes when playing video) but the pros far outweigh the cons. The colour reproduction is exceptional, so natural and the screen has real depth. It's also forgiving to lesser quality content.

The audio is actually suprisingly good and loud too, with the speakerphone being loud enough to use in the car with ease.

The size and shape of the phone are spot on. Genuinely useable in place of a phone and a tablet. Less noticable in pocket than other significantly smaller phones and not too big for my small hands to struggle with.

The UI on this phone really isn't that different to the G2 but where there are differences they make it a wholey better user experience. Honestly, this is so much nicer to use and look at than the G2, with subtle but well thought out improvements that mean in use the two feel worlds apart.

As a package this phone is very hard to beat at the £380 I paid. It's the kind of phone I had to live with for a bit to really appreciate but, I can honestly say that for general phone use and media consumption, I don't think there's a better option out there at the mo.

If you can get used to the increase in size from your typical five inch smartphone and free yourself of any hangups about pixel density, this is really gonna impress.

Hope this is of use to anyone thinking about a G Flex, please feel free to ask any specific questions and I'll answer next time I'm here.

Thanks

Your wifi router needs to upgrade as it won't be much efficient for the latest technology Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac

The old one are with Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n only.

If you wish to buy a new phone right now, and price isn't a problem, then go buy an LG Flex, LG Pro 2 or better yet, an LG G3. You can't go wrong with any of these phone, that's for sure.

AnonD-287629, 27 Jul 2014i meant online :) any website you can refer thanksWell, in China everyone uses Taobao and I've seen some on there for 1600 RMB which equates to $260 USD at current exchange rates.

The problem with Taobao is it's all in Chinese and sellers generally don't ship internationally and payment must be done through a local bank or Chinese paypal. However, you could use a Taobao Agent like www.bhiner.com to buy one and ship it to you for small commission (around $15 USD).

It's best to find one on www.taobao.com first and then copy-paste the url into www.bhiner.com and it will translate everything for you. I'm not recommending or endorsing this agent, use at your own risk. You can search for other Taobao agents on Google.
