Initially launched in the leather back and ceramic white variants, the company decided to launch the Smartphone in the metallic variant after the positive response the G4 received from consumers.

The G4's camera features a rare-in-smartphones F1.8 aperture lens which allows 80 percent more light to hit the image sensor than in the LG G3.

This, coupled with a first of its kind manual mode, Color Spectrum Sensor and OIS 2.0, makes it one of the best camera smartphones available in the market today.
