We are headed that direction...point still stands, though.

haha I was thinking the same thing when i read it haha

a phone with 5.6" screen from LG is just an equivalent to a phone with just 5" screen from other manufacturers.

No it isn't. Even the super thin bezel if G3 made it about 74.6 mm wide. We can easily expect this to cross 75 mm. Now the m9 is 69.x mm and the S6 is 70.x mm. They are much smaller. Note 4 is 77mm.

I was waiting for G4 but looks like I'll pass on this one too if this is true. Anything greater than 70 mm is a no go.

S6 Edge is 70.1 .....hope u will not say NO :(

LOL. If the battery life of S6 is decent, I might go for it(not the edge).

The thinness makes up for the 0.5-0.6 mm as they are much thinner than rest of the phones and decrease the overall circumference.

you don't get it!
the point is LG can make a phone larger screen but almost the same overall in size with other phone with smaller screen.

also don't forget to think G4 is a curved phone meaning its more ergonomic and feels comfortable in hand than other phone that has flat back!

75 mm width is huge, 5.6" or not. The other 5.5" phones are bigger but this is still much more bigger than 5" phones and hence too big for one handed usage.

LG G2 is 70.9 wide?

51. TyrionLannister (unregistered)

And it's hardly usable with one hand. I can't use a phone wider than that. So no to G4

Your hands are small, without a doubt so stop complaining

No. People want a phone they can use one handed, not a tablet in their pocket. Your brain is small.
I agree that 70mm is the WIDEST I would ever want my phone. 67mm is the sweet spot.

54. TyrionLannister (unregistered)

My hands are not small. I can use a g3 with one hand if I move the phone in my hand. But I want a firm + want to reach the top corner. That's not possible with a 5.5 inch screen.

Rumor has it that g4's dimensions are 148.9 x 76.5 x 9.9 . That's SO not compact

32. TyrionLannister (unregistered)

That's almost a Note 4 LOL.

No way that's accurate, rumors are usually bs

well who's laughing now?

S6 is good all-rounder device, if not the best. S6 hefty price tag may be a reason for some people including me to consider LG G4.

How about the NOTE 5 ?

12. Martin_Cooper (Posts: 1599; Member since: 30 Jul 2013)

Probably it will have even higher resolution, maybe bigger screen. I predict same s**tty battery as G3 at best. And I agree, sammy truly innovated with a brand new amazing 14nm cpu, brand new flash memory, first phone ever with DDR4 ram. Most of other OEM's just pick from the shelf parts and make their own designs. On the other hand sammy and apple actually design most of their tech thats inside the phone.

Why are people saying Samsung was first with DDR4? LG G Flex 2 was first, then came Xioami Note Pro (4GB even!), and HTC One M9 with some hours. Samsung fanboys are turning into mindless people saying Samsung was first with everything and not even checking facts. This is what people were calling Apple fanboys mindless over. Congratulations, you guys are the next generation of blind worshippers!

Exactly. Pure, blind fanboizm.

43. Hyperreal (Posts: 317; Member since: 08 Oct 2013)

first ddr4 ram bla bla bla. gflex2 was the first one. And check battery life of s6 in gsmarena test. its pathetic for a 2015 flagship and 14nm cpu doesnt help this tiny 2550 mAh battery.
