LG’s new G Flex ad is pure nightmare fuel

Posted on March 6, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

The LG G Flex is one heck of an innovative, eye-catching phone. Between the curved, flexible body and advanced features like its self-healing plastic, it’s the kind of phone that feels like it’s coming from twenty minutes into the future. You’d think that wearing its features on the surface like that would make promoting the G Flex a marketer’s dream job… but then somehow we ended up with the clip embedded below. Really good, engaging ...

LG G Flex to gain 4K video capabilities with Android 4.4 update

Posted on March 4, 2014 by Jaime Rivera

LG has done a very interesting job with the G Flex. Even though lots of people still debate the need to even consider a flexible phone, that doesn’t change the fact that it’s been selling rather decently around the world. The company is planning to offer its Android 4.4 update for the device in the next coming weeks, and this could mean more than just a software update for you all. We’ve already seen how XDA-Developers was able to port the G Flex to allow 4K video recording, aside from even 120fps video recording capabilities. What we didn’t expect was for LG to ...

AT&T’s LG G Flex: self-healing curves with 4G flair

Posted on February 4, 2014 by Michael Fisher

Sometimes when we get a carrier-specific version of an already-released smartphone, we’ll go ahead and do a separate full review on it – like we did for the Galaxy Note 3, whose AT&T version got a full review just two weeks after the initial review landed for the international version. Other times we’ll do what’s called a “review rebuttal,” where another Pocketnow team member takes a ...

T-Mobile finally confirms LG G Flex launch details, also announces LG Optimus F3Q

Posted on January 27, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

After hearing LG go official with its introduction of the G Flex to US markets at the CES, the last couple weeks have been bringing us the specifics on how different carriers planned to welcome the phone. First we heard from Sprint, and then AT&T followed-up last Monday – the only holdout was T-Mobile. Today the carrier finally comes through with the news of how its subscribers will be able to get their hands on the ...

AT&T follows Sprint with news of its own LG G Flex pre-orders

Posted on January 20, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

The journey of LG’s G Flex to US shores began in earnest last Thursday, as we heard from Sprint about just how the phone would be coming to its network: prices, pre-orders, retail availability, the works. But there are two other carriers who we know will be offering the G Flex as well, and as of the end of last week, neither T-Mobile nor AT&T had come forward with plans of their own. Well, we’re waiting on T-Mobile, but today AT&T speaks up, getting into the details of its own LG G Flex launch plans. While ...

LG G Flex suffering from “bumps” on its curved display

Posted on January 17, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

With the LG G Flex preparing its United States debut, you had better believe that the unusual curved smartphone is about to start getting a lot more attention. Apparently, though, not all of it will be good, as we’re hearing about a problem that’s been plaguing the phone’s display, wherein small raised bumps appear on its surface. Some reports suggest that the bumps are there right from the factory, but more have noted their appearance following forceful bending of handset – but what’s certain is ...

Sprint announces start of pre-orders for LG G Flex

Posted on January 16, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

It may not be for everyone, but the curved-screen LG G Flex emerged as a surprising late-year favorite for us, and after some leaked renders pointed to interest form US carriers, we’ve been anxious to learn how the smartphone would come to the US. Last week at the CES, LG confirmed what those renders suggested, announcing that Sprint, T-Mobile, and AT&T would all be picking up the G ...

What new technology are you looking forward to seeing at CES 2014?

Posted on January 3, 2014 by Taylor Martin

CES 2014 is just around the bend. Anton D. Nagy, Michael Fisher and yours truly will be in attendance, and coverage will begin shortly after we land in Las Vegas Sunday afternoon. This particular show has been growing in size and attendance almost every year since its induction in 1967. But for us mobile guys, the show has become far more sparse with juicy details and big product announcements. It’s far too easy for a major device to get lost in the mass of new announcements at a show like CES. As such, companies like ...

LG G Flex renders leak for two more carriers, hinting at launch plans

Posted on January 3, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

LG’s G Flex is that rare smartphone, one which on first glance appears dominated by some overly gimmicky feature, but by some lark of fate, everything just works – perfectly. Where 3D displays couldn’t live up to the hype, the G Flex’s curved display is surprisingly unobtrusive, intuitive, and just pleasant to interact with – and as a result, it ended up a late-stage contender for some of our 2013 best-of lists. Over the course of the past month, we’ve been tracking the phone’s progress towards international availability,

LG G Flex review rebuttal: a curvy ergonomic conundrum

Posted on December 21, 2013 by Taylor Martin

As efforts like After The Buzz, the Pocketnow U-Review, and Empty Nest demonstrate, we’re constantly searching for fresh ways to review mobile technology. The newest product of those efforts is Pocketnow’s “Review Rebuttal” series, in which a member of our team is assigned to test a smartphone or tablet that’s already gone through our standard review process. While the resulting video or editorial doesn’t affect the “official” Pocketnow review score, we hope it provides added context by showcasing an editor’s personal opinion, rather than a team-wide consensus. We call it ...

G Flex vs Galaxy S 4 (Video)

Posted on December 17, 2013 by Taylor Martin

LG’s G Flex broke the bounds of normality in search of a form factor and device which is more resilient, ergonomic, and beneficial to the user. The G Flex is a compelling product and a step in the right direction which, hopefully, will encourage other manufacturers to solve real problems. Samsung also attempted to solve long-standing problems with its Galaxy S 4 through software innovations, and it has since become ...
