The LG G4 is out! I have a reviewed several phones in my blogging career, and this is the first with a manual mode camera that has 15 settings and 135 options, right in the phone!
Camera
• f/1.8 aperture for impressive performance in low light situations
• Manual mode with 15 settings and over 135 options for photo enthusiast level control over how photos are captured
• Improved Laser Auto Focus so you’re always ready to capture the moment
• 16MP rear facing camera and an 8MP front facing camera for high quality photos and selfies
• Improved Optical Image Stabilization steadies the shot for sharp, focused images
• RAW image file capture for the highest possible image quality
You have to go into Best Buy yourself to see how remarkable this phone camera is. My picture does not do full justice to the options available on auto-mode vs. manual-mode. I have only ever seen, or owned, a phone with the minimal capabilities that you see on the left. I used to say as a blogger I need the best phone camera made, but now everyone does. We are a society where everyone is taking selfies and posting pictures on social media all day long. This is the phone camera that offers the best capabilities for that!
Phones are improving with every new model, the display on this newest LG is also remarkable:
Display
• Cutting edge 5.5” IPS Quantum Display for an outstanding visual experience
• 25% brighter display* for an enhanced viewing experience in various lighting conditions
• 50% improvement in contrast* for richer images
• Quad HD resolution with 538 PPI for incredible detail
Does you phone fit well in your hand? Try this new curved design! Does you phone battery die too quickly? This phone has a high capacity battery, my son is already begging to replace his current phone with this one, his battery doesn’t seem to last more than a few hours! And a huge upgradeable memory! As a blogger, I have thousands of pictures on my phone. And now more videos than ever! I need more memory. I love my new Periscope app, but the videos I take with that app eat up my memory faster than me at a buffet!
Design
• Genuine leather, metallic and ceramic style back covers for a premium look and feel
• Fits in the palm of your hand with a gentle curved design for ergonomic comfort
• Upgradable memory up to 2TB with micro SD card and a replaceable high capacity 3,000mAh battery
The bottom line is, I hate carrying bulky cameras, but I need good pictures. I only just recently realized that the quality of the pictures I was taking with my tablet was inferior to the ones that I take with my phone. For those that know my work, I post pictures all day long and am currently using my phone camera over 90% of the time. The superior camera on the LG G4 is the best next step for me to take so that I have the best phone camera available!
