LG G3 - Hardware, performance and battery

 Performance


Under the G3's hood there's a Qualcomm 
Snapdragon 801 quad-core chipset clocked at 2.5GHz, along with 2GB of RAM. There's 16GB of internal storage and support for microSD cards up to 128GB. That's a typical arrangement, matching rival devices and the experience is pretty much on a par.
When it comes to opening apps and navigating the device, it is slick and fast. We think it feels a little faster than the SGS5 in daily use, with more immediacy in things like opening home screen folders.


Hardware 

  The hardware load-out means it's as adept at firing up hardcore games too. We were a little disappointed to find some app incompatibility - our favourite game Real Racing 3 isn't available and we're sure there are others. Games like Vector, however, look sensational.

Battery 

 

While the performance is perfectly competitive at the top level, the 3000mAh battery didn't give us the performance we were expecting. On heavy usage days we found it struggled to last, meaning we had to top it up more regularly than we expected. On typical days we've found the HTC One M8 to last longer.
That might be down to the different power saving options available on both devices, but could be the LG's higher resolution display demanding more juice. Certainly, keeping a rein on display brightness will help prolong the battery life. We'll continue to use the LG G3 long-term to see if our opinion changes regarding battery life over the coming months.
