LG’s 2014 flagship couldn’t really reach the heights that its predecessor achieved. The phone’s headline feature, its QHD or 2K display, was also the reason for the problems that users who bought the phone, experienced.
Despite being powered by a 2.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor and 3GB RAM, the display took a toll on performance and led to lag and stutter.
Battery backup was also sub-par compared to the LG G2 and the plastic, removable back in place of the unibody form factor, made the phone feel less premium. The QHD display is more about adding to the spec list and doesn’t feel really different compared to full-HD screens.
