With so many flagship "plus ones" out there, it's refreshing to see
something truly revolutionary. The LG G Flex is curved like a
Beckham free kick and has a flexible screen and battery, along with
a unique self-healing coating on the back. LG G Flex official images The LG G Flex is curved top to bottom and, as the name suggests, it
can flex. It's not bendable like rubber, you have to really put some
muscle to it. It's quite impressive all the same, as nothing about
phones is flexible, not the screen glass, not the screen itself, nor the
motherboard or battery. Oh well, they didn't use to be.

Key features Unique:
curved design
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support;
CDMA and 1xEV-DO Quad-band 3G with HSPA; Penta-band LTE Cat. 4 6" 16M-color 720p curved POLED capacitive touchscreen; Gorilla

stereo sound;

transparency (QSlide) Accelerometer and proximity sensor Active noise cancellation with dedicated mic Non-replaceable 3,500mAh Li-Po battery IR emitter for remote control of home appliances Main disadvantages Screen has low ppi, issues Rather large device even for a phablet No optical image stabilization for the camera The hardware controls at the back take some time getting used to No microSD slot Non-replaceable battery LG leaned on its component manufacturing skills and created a
Plastic OLED (POLED) screen that's flexible (more so than the G Flex
itself). The next step is a curved, flexible Lithium Polymer battery (a
world first). Despite its odd shape and 8.7mm thickness of the
phone, the battery has a respectable 3,500mAh capacity. The screen measures the massive 6", but the curve of the device
helps the ergonomics. While it impresses with size and flexibility, the
screen has only 720p resolution (245ppi). Here's hoping that the
new technology makes up for the lacking density. While flexible screens and batteries might become more popular
with wearable devices (say a smartwatch that wraps around your
wrist), the next trick might become standard for all sorts of devices
- the coating on the back can heal itself if scratched. This will put an
end to all the silly cases and protectors that just make phones thick
and ugly.


Any Questionss??

Even with its awesome specs, after about 2 years (or even less) LG will abandon it and software updates would be pipe dream. See SGN 1, it's still stuck on Android 4.1
