Your channel just keeps on getting better. Awesome review man. I like your sense of humor.
This is the video that made me get my LG G4. I still have it, and it's still holding up very well. I may have watched over a hundred videos about the phone before deciding to buy it, but this one definitely takes the price when it comes to getting in-depth about what it is and what it does. Thank you for the video and I hope to come back to your channel if I need to pick a new phone.
Max I just want to say I love ur channel. U have helped my get out of bootloops, discover awesome ROMs and choose which devices to buy? Keep it up man. You're doing great work!
You are one of the few channels who do give this phone the love it deserve.
Good job.
Thanks Max for the awesome review.
I just picked this baby up from tmobile and I haven't looked at my note 4 since. It's light, fast and the camera is awesome and the leather back feels really nice in hand.
Great F**King review as usual Max. I've got my fingers crossed for the S5 Note to be released.
Love your videos Max, awesome 😊😊
I'm waiting for the new Nexus devices. Not too blown away with this current crop that came out. The S6 is definitely top of the food chain with the rest of the share close second's.
Pretty much s6 nexus note 4 n one plus 2 will be the only upgrades this year
Max, bro great stuff as always, are you planning on doing a LG G4 vs GS6 Video ?
thanks
Nebuchadnezzar18 Yup working on that next!
yup working on that this week
whats that video you were watching that was 3d?
Amazing review!
Just found your channel today Max, great reviews. I'm about to buy the Edge 6 as my first 4k recording device, can you recommend the best Android video editing app and how do I downres my 4k videos?
Chill video as always. Stay high on Android!
Awesome review. LG did an excellent job with the camera. Very impressive. Sac Sac is the best! The white grape one is good too! I haven't had either one of those in years!
Please let me know name of the game on 2:30
that amazing sac sac orange ad placement tho
good review bro but you know full well this thing is a beast in the performance department! It may not have as high of scores as the s6 but it's still fast as hell and has less hickups than the s6. I just picked up the g4 after test driving the s6 for a week and after owning several high end samsung galaxy s devices! I just got bored with the Samsung ui! I owned the LG g2 when it first came out and I only wished it had a bigger screen back then and now it does and it has far exceeded the g2 in performance. That's saying something because it was a beast too. I don't need a finger print sensor that works only 60 percent of the time. I use knock code and have to mess with always hitting buttons on the side of phones either! Needless to say, I am a lover of all Android devices and Apple devices. This phone has not disappointed at all and would highly recommend if you want something as good as the galaxy s lineup or Apple but is different in 98% of its character and build! I mean, DAMN, its got a 6 64 bit processor , 3 gigs of ram a great graphics gui and a optional leather back! Oh yah, and one of the best cameras you can get anywhere this side of a $1000 camera!
one thing I really agree on is the battery. It was way better on the g2. Pushing this many pixels and this size screen, it should be much higher capacity . Like 3500 mah! That size would barely make a difference in thickness or weight! It's not terrible battery life but it could be better . But in the same manner, it's interchangeable and can get a bigger battery if I want! "Win-win"!
hey Max solid video but I had a quick question there are I a lot of really good phones on sale around the $350 mark and I've had my eye on the G4 for awhile now and I was wondering if you know the different model versions and the band's they support because I would like to make sure it's going to work properly when I pick it up
Worth the upgrade over my g3?
LG G4 or the Galaxy Note Edge? which one is better in your opinion and review
I have the LG G4 leather back and i really like the aesthetics and the feel of the phone but the performance is not that great to be honest.
I am very disappointed by its performance because it lags a lot and certain apps simply don't run or crash way too often.
Its caused by the LG software that is full of issues and bugs, lots of people on XDA are complaining about this you need to do a lot of tweaks in order to make it work right and fast. My HTC one M7 was A LOT faster and actually never ever had any problems or lags or whatsoever.
The camera is very very good and the quality is simply stunning but the OIS is way to aggressive and if you move while filming the image is unusable because its wobbling all over the place unfortunately.
I do like the option that you can swap the battery and the simplicity of repairing it yourself.
The warranty on the other hand is ridiculous tho, if you have to RMA it it will be a pain because it can take over 3 weeks when you get it back and if there are errors with it that according to them you conflict them yourself you have to pay for it and you don't get your phone back if you don't pay..
Battery life is actually pretty good and i can last one full day with only 1 charge.
Are you planning on setting up an root guide for this phone like you did with the Samsung and LG G3 Max? that would be awesome because hopefully we can get rid of this awful buggy and lagging LG software.
+Jeffrey Marroquin wait really!?!? I was looking around and everyone was saying this was a great phone but now I don't know what to do! I was gonna pick this over the note 4 because of all the bad reviews on it, but now, poop :( now I'm stuck with my stupid iPhone 5 from 2012.
+Gabe It's a phone worth having but just know that a moments it lags alot. Apps close at certain points also. Of course it's Android! If your a heavy gamer it's a great phone but it will over heat at points. Social Media is fine but again the apps randomly close. As I mentioned earlier, if you care about your Snapchat Camera quality, this is not your phone. The leather also wears off so if your thinking of getting it I recommend a Ringke Fusion case. It shows the leather but prevents leather damage from keys, jeans etc... Other wise it's a fine phone. I'm just kind of personally done with Android but stilling looking foward for the G5
Love you're videos…
mohamed salama your*
What's the name of the GAME 2:33 ?
does the screen heat like the g3?
i was gonna get note 4...been waiting for it to go down in price since b4 it came out and had galaxy 5 which i was content with. this would be used as a second phone replaceing our home phone anyhow so was ok with waiting. note wasn't going down and rogers rep said this phone just came out and was $200. down where the note is 300. once he told me it could be expanded 2tb with SD and offered us 100 off I gave it a try. only in a few days and liking it...I'm no pro but one thing I found was the pics don't look quite as sharp to me as the gal 5 even? that surprised me but I'm only using it on manual mode. I could have also got the note 100 off for 200 down and not sure if i made right choice. I do find it comes on quickly and has smooth quick response. I like everything else bout it but really was desiring that pen too and love galaxy cam on 5 so I would think the note would be better. not sure if i should take this one back or not...they gave me a nice lil kit with it too..extra batter with a battery charger pack, extra cover (one leather one grey plastic) i read somewhere that with recent updates note 4 got laggy?
Great phone but i have been noticing really shitty battery life. I play a lot of games like Clash Royale and Fallout shelter so i couldnt even hit 1 day which is kind of expected. Bought a spare battery and i still cant really hit a day. My phone consumed like 18% battery in 1 hour which doesn't seem natural
Max, can you please make a video about fixing g4's 4g/lte problem
My lg g2 in 2015 still good. I have played heavy games on it and still no lag. So i thing wait for lg g5 to urgrade this
I love the FM tuner on my LG G3. Does G4 have a FM tuner? None of the reviewers have talked about G3's tuner and G4'; if indeed it has one.
split window is not copied. its android's 5.0+ feature
What beach? Ventura?
Good review Max, I think I will pass because I've had a couple G3's and there is no great improvement, I can see other than the camera. I'll stick with Note 4 for now and keep eye out for G4 Stylus or Note 5 coming soon.
Hey max everytime i try and use things like game cih and game killer, it wont let me choose an application, it just says touchwiz home instead of the app i want to use it on. I have a rooted gs6
T mobile offering 128gb sd card with purchase until June 21 im thinking about getting this if I do I'll be rooting it as soon as I get my hands on it..599 isn't bad nether plus should I say it again a free 128gb micro sd card included
how max have you found a way to root g4 model h818p?
That phone would be perfect if it had a fingerprint scanner.. .. JS I'm having a hard time choosing between the lg g4 or HTC one m9
En dónde puedo encontrar el vídeo de cámara lenta del LG g4
1:25 lotte sac sac orange haha can't get more Korean than that love you man haha :D
Takes me back to my high school days when I used to live there :3
On paper, G4 looks good compared to the new iPhone 6s plus .. I'm rockin the G4 now, BUT debating on jumping ship to 6s now. Any thoughts on it? I know you're against apple, etc .. But just wanted your view on it.
If you even think the screen on the 6s looks better, you're losing your mind
+Tak Taker I still have the G4 and got the iPhone 6s Plus. Screen does look crisper on G4 but you really have to be paying attention to it to notice it. The naked eye cannot see the slight differences unless 100% focused on it.
+Monty Dizon I kind of disagree with you. The LG G4's screen could be seen as way better when looking at both phones, the difference in how they look is very easy to be seen. I would understand if you were talking about let's say the Samsung Galaxy s6, comparing the screens of these to phones is really hard because they both look great... but at the end of the day you'd have to give it to the s6. I personally think that the 6s's screen is a small disappointment compared to the LG g4.
Tak Taker Most definitely, I agree with you on that. The 6s' screen is a small disappointment compared to the G4. I just prefer the smooth software of iOS but love to mess around with Android. So, for me, having both phones is perfect. My daily driver is the 6s but I have the G4 under Wi-Fi for watching vids etc. Nothing like going from 0 to 100 in battery swapping.
can you help me fix my max one 5.5 its from ionephone
if onlty it had the finger print scanner
I am confused why this scores 47,000 on benchmark but my older nexus 6 scores 10,000 higher is it a upgrade or downgrade.Anyone know please comment it would help me decide if i want to switch.
i still dont want to get rid of my s5.
I'm using sony xperia Z2 , i'm looking to upgrade to a 5.5" or above phone that is reliable for the camera and also most of the game are playable . I do not play graphics intensive games , but i do take a lot of pictures. my Z2 just keep on crashing for the camera app , and since the first update from SONY , it just couldn't take a good picture and launch so slow. Is this the phone that i should get ? or S6 ?
G4
Hi i have a big problem please help me my problem is
wpa_supplicant.conf. broken password on note 4 whay ? Help please 😣
You want see go my chanel i record my problem please help me
Great Wallpaper! :D
Shutter speed in auto seems to lag :( That sucks!
With the lg g2 being such a great device I think I will wait for the lg g5 XD
The lg g2 with a g4 ROM and xposed should be just be enough 💁
Awesome!☺
i work for Verizon and had both phones the lg g4 has a brighter better screen
Dr. Hsieh lol
You reported the LG G3 has leggy as fuck UI / Software. I'm assuming the G4 is in the see boat?
The g4 is being for Lg as the s5 was for samsung... so disappointing.
In what way?
Good job
thx master!
10:40 lol nice review
i like g3 design
Man find some awesome rom for it........
when Note 5 and Edge come, it will destroy all phablet, i guarantee it
Another quality review! And "keep it simple, stupid." *****
you're drinking SACSAC..

Tempting. It has an SD card slot dude 👌

If only it had an 810...
Jesus christ, do you not realize that the 810 fucking sucks? It was under clocked for the M9 due to overheating... The 808 is just fine, especially because it's optimized for the G4
Would there be any real world difference if it had an 810?
***** Yup already know that, but I was just asking rhetorically to Erich Lang.I mean I don't really see any other reason for getting the 810 other than bragging rights coz I don't think there is even an app that fully utilizes all that processing prowess. Kinda like putting nitros on your car and just driving thru traffic all day.
Wow , this guy is really goofy can't believe that these people are doing a review and expect people to take them seriously joking around like that . Unless you an 11 year old kid . Nice phone used to owned the G2 and it was a nice phone . So I think if you own this phone and lg follow on the foot steps it should be a nice phone to own. But dude am not hating or judging but a little be more professionalism will help in your reviews.
We like his wacky ,upbeat approach,that's why we watch.If you don't just go watch one of the hundreds of reviewers that are so boring that they'll put you to sleep faster than sleep aid.
This phone blows..if u want bigger than S6 wait for Note 5
G4 .? No thanks. Im happy with my note 4.
쌕쌕 오렌지!!!
wait for NOTE 5...sorry G4 not ass good enough
0:11 haahahahaha
