Too poor to afford a chick? The LG G2 has you covered

In case you missed out on our review, we could say that, in a nutshell, it's undeniable that LG has managed to etch a place in our hearts with the G2. With a view of the white version of the G2 sitting on my desk as I write this, I realize that this is actually one of very few Android devices in the history of the platform which have managed to get us to all collectively agree that it looks and feels elegant.

Fortunately, the bezel-less good looks of the phone are hardly all there is to the G2 – it's insanely powerful, and is currently one of the fastest phones on the market, period. It's camera – one of the best we've seen. And while the megapixel wars threaten to wipe all that makes a great camera, it's good to see that LG understands that there's more to a great cameraphone. Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), for one, has remained a rather ignored area of the entire package, a feature we've come to love, especially in tandem with the buttery-smooth 60FPS capture that the G2 offers. Best of all, you don't even have to trust us on this one, folks! Simply check out the video below for a practical, no-nonsense demonstration.

PA. Please ask LG to fix their G2 retail mode. I witness a few display set phone just hang. I may not buy their phone due to their lie on optimus 3d ics update but every brand is good for the competition good for the consumer. If Samsung don't pay enough for advertising than they deserve to be penalized.

"one of very few Android devices in the history of the platform which have managed to get us to all collectively agree that it looks and feels elegant" I think you mean the HTC One and the Xperia Z (not the Z1). I've not seen the G2 in person, but from the images, it doesn't seem to be upto the elegance of those two (in the Android world).

PA, you should disable comments from when you post such article. It is an advertisment, not an article that we desire to read. At the same time, it draws so many negative comments about the ad and the phone. I don't think it does any good to LG. Just saying :)
