LG G Flex 2

Curved phones are not so common in our life. Have you ever seen anyone using a curved phone. The last few curved phones are absolute failures. Lg's g flex was one of them,despite its high end specs and curvature.
Thankfully, LG's turned its game around. The G flex 2 is certainly a step in the right direction with its 64-bit processor and 1080p P-OLED display.
The second-generation G Flex 2 is a massive improvement over its predecessor. Whereas the G Flex was a ginormous curved phablet, the G Flex 2 is merely a “bent” version of LG’s flagship, the G3. Its smaller size makes it easier to wield, too, and the mid-chassis curve makes it comfortable to hold up to your ear for phone calls or to type out replies to long text messages. Its plastic backside is “self healing,” meaning whenever the back of the phone endures a minor scratch, it immediately repairs itself. LG improved upon this technology so that it heals faster than its predecessor.Overall, the G Flex 2 is stylish.

Like its chassis, the G Flex 2’s 5.5-inch P-OLED display is all plastic. The 1080p display is a big improvement over the 720p display of the G Flex—it has a much higher pixel density of 403 pixels-per-inch (compared to 245 pixels-per-inch on the G Flex). You don’t typically need much more than that on a smartphone, anyway.
Your smartphone is typically the device that’s always with you, so it should have a very capable camera. The G Flex 2 is a worthy player in this department. Its 13-megapixel rear-facing camera sensor is a souped-up version of the G3’s, though its flagship counterpart performed better in some instances.The G Flex 2’s camera sensor performed particularly well in well lit situations, though you could see it start to struggle in low-light situations. It wasn’t too good about capturing foggy days either, and the flash took about two whole seconds to calibrate before it fired.
If you like what you see, you should seriously consider giving the G Flex 2 a try. It’s a massive improvement over its predecessor, and this second-generation phone sets the precedent for what curved phones should be. They should be both high quality and comfortable to hold, with features that mirror those of other flagship phones. Curved phones shouldn’t be just niche devices, but a merely another design option.
I was thinking about our life with curved phones. How it will feel when you put a curved phone into your pocket. Well it will take some time to get used to of this new curved device.
So best of luck to LG for its new smartphone..
