LG G2 Now in the Philippines

I witnessed the grand launch of the internationally-acclaimed LTE-ready LG G2 in Solaire Resorts in Manila few days ago. With the theme “Learning From You” LG Mobile’s newest premium flagship smartphone is packed with amazing features anyone would like to experience. 

The LG G2 smartphone boasts of a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 Processor, Graphic RAM (GRAM), and an above-average 3,000 mAh siO+ battery that can last the whole day even for a demanding user.

With a 5.2-inch Full HD IPS display and superior graphics courtesy of IPS technology. It comes with a 13-MP camera and Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) similar to that in DSLR cameras which prevents blurring and allows clearer, brighter, and sharper images even in motion or low-light environments.

Moreover, the camera is equipped with 8X Digital Zoom, 9 Multi-Point Auto-Focus, and recording capability up to 60 fps Full HD. The studio-like audio quality is made sure by the 24 bit/192kHz Hi-Fi sound playback.

Features the world's first Rear Key, which is used for switching on and off, activating LG's Quick Memo and launching the 13-MP Full-HD Camera.

The LG G2 also incorporates new and practical UX feature such as the KnockON, which turns the display on or off by tapping twice with a finger.

Guest Mode, which protects the owner's privacy by displaying only pre-selected apps when guests access the phone. Answer Me, which automatically  answers the call after lowering the ringtone when the phone is raised to one's ear.
