Recent reports have claimed LG’s latest flagships will skip Android 5.1 and be updated straight to Android M instead, but that may not be the case for 2013’s LG G2. One report claims the device will get an Android 5.1.1 Lollipop within two months. “We have received joyous news for all owners of LG G2 directly from Korea,” reports AndroidPIT.de (machine translated). LG is said to be...
LG’s G2 currently exists as the company’s high-end flagship smartphone, and today a new competitor entered the market. HTC officially took the wraps of the highly anticipated HTC One (M8) on Tuesday, a device that was built to go to-to-toe with all other flagships. So, to help you out, we built spec comparisons that show the internal specs of each and how they compare side-by-side....
Yesterday's pairing of the Sony Xperia Z2 vs. the BlackBerry Z30 resulted in a win by the Z30. The Z30 will advance on to the next round to go up against the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Today's pairing will feature the LG G2 vs. the iPhone 5c.
LG recently announced the G2 Mini and we had a chance to check it out up close and personal at Mobile World Congress. We also compared it to the G2 — while the two phones look similar, they are also very different. LG told TechnoBuffalo that the main focus of the G2 Mini was the mid-range market and that it didn’t see the demand to simply create a smaller version of the G2. Sony did the...
We’re here reporting from Mobile World Congress in Barcelona where we just had a chance to check out LG’s brand new G2 Mini. The device is very different from its larger brethren, which served as a flagship, and instead will launch around the globe as a mid-range smartphone. That said, it packs a really compelling set of features. The screen isn’t anything to call home about – we like...
We haven’t heard word directly from LG just yet, but it appears that the LG G2 mini and its specs are now official. The company already confirmed that the smaller version of its G2 was going to be unveiled during Mobile World Congress next week, and now we have a list of the specs that the phone will offer. Unfortunately, they’re going to be disappointing for anyone who was hoping for...
LG isn’t like most other phone makers. Sometimes instead of leading us on and on until a major press conference, the company comes right out and tells us what to expect. Earlier this year, for example, the firm told us that it will announce the G Pro 2 during Mobile World Congress. Today, it basically confirmed that it will also have a smaller version of its G2 handset, the G2 mini, on...
It’s that time of the year again: when we bring you our quarterly report on the top 5 Android smartphones out on the market right now. The industry has been relatively quiet over the last few months though — at least in terms of new device launches — primarily because Mobile World Congress next month is the big show ground for the latest and greatest phones. While there are a few new...
Apple wasn't technically the first to make gold a "thing" with mobile phones, but it definitely took the color option mainstream in 2013. Following the launch of the gold-colored iPhone 5s, HTC introduced the gold hued-HTC One and HTC One Max. Likewise, Samsung introduced a rose gold Galaxy Note 3. Not to be outdone, LG is also throwing its hat in the ring. The company recently...
It’s been five long months since LG unveiled its latest flagship, the G2, and now we’re hearing the first rumors that the South Korean company may be preparing the release a “mini” variant of the 5.2-inch handset. The report comes from Greek site TechBlog.gr, and cites unsourced “exclusive information,” so we’re definitely take this rumor with a grain of salt. The LG G2 hasn’t posted...
