Reviews around size (4.53 of 5)

  • The size of the screen, 5.5 inches is very easy on the eyes
  • great phone! and the camera is awesome as well :) love the size too
  • I love the size but it's glitch a lot for a brand new phone almost a year later after buying
  • Splitting hairs, I'd recommend the G3 for casual smartphone users because it offers a screen size almost indistinguishable from the N4 in a noticeably smaller, lighter body
  • Well the size of the phone certainly isn't a problem, at least for me, nice big bright screen and easy to hold

Reviews around condition (4.41 of 5)

  • Real bothersome to me, but I like the rest of the phone well enough to just go with the flow (I use the APP and have changed the sounds)I do feel the LED notification lights are just a gimmick
  • Condition of phone good but battery drains fast and charges slow and when plugged into charge it tell me to use original charger
  • It turned out the vendor that I purchased the phone from listed as very good condition
  • The front facing camera is also very washed out, almost to the point that it looks black and white in poor lighting conditions
  • Phone came in what I feel is perfect condition, there was an issue where a certain area in the screen was unresponsive

Reviews around feature (3.74 of 5)

  • Amazing phone, great battery life, and every feature you want.
  • This phone has great features: open 2 apps at once, customization options, and my current favorite feature is Screen Mirroring(Miracast) which allows me to transfer what is on my phone to my TV
  • Knock Code feature is the easiest, quickest screen lock I have ever used
  • Applications begin to close by itself, Camera decides to freeze randomly when trying to switch modes, and the WORST feature about this phone: LG DOES NOT COVER SOFTWARE MALFUNCTIONS!
  • The knock on knock off feature is going to keep me using future lg flagships for years to come, i couldn't imagine going back to using buttons to wake my phone up.

Reviews around g3 (3.58 of 5)

  • So, also, google what apps to disable if you get the Verizon G3 because your battery life will suffer and your phone will get hot.

Reviews around sprint (2.23 of 5)

  • Perfect n exactly as described and up and ruinning in 10 minutes

  • so sprint has disabled the simultaneous voice and data.

Reviews around code (1.00 of 5)

  • Having knock on and knock code at the same time causes a delay and the phone doesn't know which knock to register (I just stopped using knock code)
  • Also, you can knock a code on the phone to log into it, which is really neat and convenient, but it doesn't always register, so it can get frustrating at times
  • The phone also has a good array of features, such as knock-knock, knock code, quick access to the camera by volume button, and so much more.
