If you’ve been waiting for a different kind of flagship, LG Malaysia has finally announced the arrival of its LG G4. For our Malaysian market, it is priced at RM2,499 that comes with a genuine leather back and it will be available for purchase starting 4th July. In addition, they are throwing a free genuine leather quick case plus a battery charging kit that comes with a spare battery worth RM580 for a limited time only. As spotted earlier in SIRIM, the LG G4 will be distributed by Zitron Enterprise.
To recap on the specs, the LG G4 gets a 5.5″ IPS display that pushes a Quad HD 2560×1440 resolution and it runs on a new 64-bit Hexa-Core Snapdragon 808 processor that’s mated to 3GB of RAM. On-board it gets 32GB of storage which can be expanded with microSD. The camera is one of its key highlights, offering a 16MP main shooter with Optical Image stabiliser, faster f/1.8 lens, laser auto focus and an array of manual settings. For taking selfies, it gets a larger 8MP front camera that even has a soft flash light. It runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop out of the box and it is juiced up with a 3,000mAh capacity battery which is user replaceable.
At RM2,499, it is RM100 lower than the other flagships like the Galaxy S6 and the HTC One M9+. It is also interesting to note the LG G4 is the only new high-end device that comes with both a removable battery and a microSD expansion slot.
