rather than minutes. LG's demonstration at CES with
wire brushes was certainly impressive.

Hardware and specs
As we mentioned the phone is smaller and uses a
5.5in screen which matches that of the LG G3. The
fi rm says this is the sweet spot between and decent
amount of real estate and usability. As with the
G3, the G Flex 2 doesn't feel like a phone with that
screen size. LG has consistently impressed in the
way with thin bezels. The bump in resolution to Full
HD is much needed and the P-OLED display is now
nice and crisp although a little way behind Quad HD.
So LG has addressed two of the main problems
but has continued to make improvements on the
hardware front. It's the fi rst phone we've seen with
a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor which
is 64-bit, 2 GHz and Octa-core and
accompanied by an Adreno 430 GPU.
Like the G3, it comes with either 2- or
3GB of RAM and 16- or 32GB of internal
storage. There's also a microSD card
slot which states it can take a whopping
2TB in the spec sheet which is by far the
highest we've ever seen.
On the power front, there is a decent
sized 3000mAh battery which LG says
can be charged from 0 to 50 percent in
just 40 minutes.
It's good news to see the same 13Mp
rear camera which is found in the G3
which we know is a class act with OIS+
(optical image stabilisation), dual-tone
LED fl ash and a laser auto focus. At the
