Do you think the G4 is beautiful?

I'm not trolling but I feel like its front is kinda bulky the G3 is more beautiful in my opinion. Maybe I haven't seen the G4 in real lifr so I dont feel it?

I didn't have the G3. But I've had the galaxy s1, 2,3,4 and the g4 is by far the best Android phone I've owned. The plastic removable back is super solid and the device feels great in hand. (Galaxy phones had backs that were always creaky) It took me 30 seconds to love the back buttons. I usually like more rounded edges, but this device suits me quite well. I think it's a thing of beauty

I was as skeptical as OP. However, in person it looks way better. I'ts not bulky it has very thin edges like 5mm that refine the look of a of a 9.8mm phone incredibly well. The bezels are just a bit larger than G3 but noticeably smaller than average. Mines catches lot of attention here. Just the Camera looks better fitted on the G3 but lets compare Picture Quality. The buttons are more comfortable to deal with on the G4. If ever rooted it'll be my 2 years Keeper.

Yeah is bulky and feels cheap in hand.

And root is coming on September right? The One+ you have measures 152mm vs 149mm G4. Both with 5.5'' screen.

Don't get it why you kids always get butthurt and take it personal. It is my opinion. You find it beautiful good for you. I reserve the beautiful judgement for top models and just so you know I have the s6, the g4, the g2, the 1+, the nexus4, 5 and 6 and yes the g4 is the least well built phone.

Feels and looks premium to me, doesn't even feel bulky. I love the carbon fiber look on the front too. Looks way better than the G3 with that odd color bottom bar.

it is slightly bigger than G3, be it in figures or in physique.
but it's definitely more comfortable to handle than G3, IMHO.

"Look" of the device (aesthetics)

Not bad concept at all

Kind of awkward looking, but have to case it up anyway

not the best but it's been a while I haven't wanted a case to change the look of it.

What's driving me nuts about the hate of this device is how many think the G5 sucks solely based on looks. Has the mobile tech sphere really become this superficial and shallow? It's a phone (not a purse) that has its form follow its function. I'll take practicality over useless 'good looks' any day.

Yeah. It is unbelievable how people choose looking over effectiveness and functionality. LOL If no one likes the G5 im open to receive all your phones. Just send me a message and i will give the address hahaha. And my phone will arrive soon, but by seeing the reviews on youtube it seems to me like a very interesting design though. Not too sophisticated but also not too Simplistic. It looks smooth.

If you slap a bulky Otterbox case on your phone, why would "looks" ever really matter? lol with that said, I like the look of the G5. The metallic body isn't HTC awesome, but it's far from ugly.

I think it looks great/fine. I have a clear case (Poetic Affinity) to show off the phone a bit more, and a kickstand non-clear case (Spigen Thin Armor) for when I don't care as much. Honestly I'm starting to prefer the Poetic just because I like looking at the phone itself.
That said, I've found that I stop caring about looks about a week after I get it. Maybe that's just me.

I actually really like the lok of the g5.. I do always run a case though. I have my silver g5 in a spigen neo hybrid case I really dig the appearance with the case even more then the phone alone.

Okay the phone is understated, but its ergonomically great. It doesn't scream for attention like S7 nor is it super thin and slippery like iPhone. Since i don't like using cases, this phone is perfect for me.
Though I have to admit, when you buy a premium segment phone, looks do matter. And LG tbh does disappoint there. Its just an average looking phone. Nothing to go ga-ga over , but nothing to hate nonetheless. Its simply a boring looking phone.

It looks good ;D
Gonna be my next phone after the Galaxy S6

Dunno...it's like a renewed copy of the Lg G2...is not that bad...i like it.

Well you can't deny it's a huge improvement from the G4 and its horribly shaped back. I do wish the whole front panel was glass though. After the 6P I think it's the best looking droid so all in all, can't complain.

Love it
I don't see why people think its ugly.....to each his own.

I think it's not that pretty... The back is ugly with the camera bump (camera bumps should just not happen, put bigger battery to fill the gap). I hate the curved glass. I hate any curved glass on a phone, it makes it impossible to put a simple tempered glass protector which I think is a must.
But.... the phone is great. Not my choice for design but it's a solid performer! From performance to sound and camera. Everything is rocking solid. I like it a lot!

The only negative point (in most aluminium/metal smartphones used to be) is buttons rocker (volume and power). I talked with the official chat and they answered me is normal. But with 2 years guarantee don't worry me.

Not sure where to post this... How is the GPS on this phone?

My previoue Moto X pure had better material quality...
Op3t good also but i don't like aluminium material ...so i use spigen case new hybrid and its ok now

The buttons on my 3 felt more sturdy than the black 3T. I wonder if it is because of the paint. Not sure. Either way, it is built extraordinarily well and easily exceeds most other phones in terms of quality.

It's great, no issues. Works like any other phone would

A couple of problems, but not deal-breakers:
1. Weak vibration feedback
2. Speaker a little weak, easily gets overdriven, could break if always used in full volume

Highest quality ever experienced, nothing more to say

The power button and volume rocker are little clumsly and loose , i hate that but i love the tactile feedback they give upon pressing.
Overall good built quality

My black 3T has small dents/scratches running across the top of it, the paint is chipping off on the top edge a bit. I've taken good care of the phone, it looks like something might have been trying to eat it... Lol...
Otherwise, great feeling phone.

No issues with build quality. My gunmetal 3T feels like a premium device that would usually cost $650+. I like how they used sapphire glass for camera lens cover and ceramic for FPS. Definitely feels higher quality than my Nexus 6P.

How a device looks doesn't always show the build quality. The Moto XPE may not look as nice as the 3T but the build quality is very good. Same with the Nexus 6.

My screen went blank within a month of normal usage and I really doubt about the quality of components used as it is also a known issue with oneplus 3T.

I love the build of the OP3T, the smooth and solid feel in the hand is superb , the buttons offer the most tactile feel i've ever had. the only gripe i have is the antenna bands get dirty over time when used with a TPU case and the steel rim near the camera loses paint

my 3T slided off my pocket while riding my scooter ~30mph, no cover/bumper/anything
Rescued and - with surprise and relief - realized was still pretty much intact! The only "major" damage was to the rear camera glass, which has a vertical crack: this sort of refrains a bit the light when i take pictures, but is still usable.

It's just a great feel in the hand No homo

The 3T is a beautifully machined phone. Very nice to hold and use, very slim.
It's a well crafted phone.

samsung typical cheap plastic trash, hate it, always will, they do intend you to break it easy so you buy another after all.
i dropped my moto z force on concrete tons of times with no damage, not doing that with an s10
edit: nearly forgot this one before, but with the battery moto mod on the moto z force i had before this it was way more comfortable to hold in landscape orientation, the z force without the mod had the same issue though but i have to ding the s10+ cause the only solution is a bulky case that some people probably don't want and even then it's not as comfortable to hold due to the thinness of the device.

Actually the higher the build quality "feel", the more likelihood you will have damage during a drop. The old plastic phones like my Blackberry 15 years ago could be tossed all over the place without a case and keep on chuggin'.
This is why the case industry has grown into a billion dollar business!
That said, the ceramic S10+ is in a league of all its own.

Nobody cares if your cheaper old plastic phone survived drops easily, plastic absorbs impacts in a different way, while scratching and losing material very easily.
This phone is in its own league, it's not made to be dropped since there are other devices for that, but the feel is the best you could get and the ceramic version showed very good durability while having top class comfort.
As a matter of fact this device is one of the most expensive ones to manufacture, if not the most expensive one at all.
https://www.notebookcheck.net/The-Samsung-Galaxy-S10-costs-just-US-420-to-build.411858.0.html

Materials are awesome. I got the ceramic version. But hell, that thing is slippery without a case.

Comparing it to my Note 9 , the Note 9 wins hands down. I'm not just referring to the Note 9 weight either. Example first things I noticed with the s10+, back glass resonates when watching YouTube videos at 50% volume or more. As does some voice calls using the earpiece, I can feel the back glass resonate if the other party has a bassy voice.
Furthermore, no matter what color you chose on the s10 the frame is a painted chrome color, another cost cutting corner by Sammy. Where as on the Note 9 the chassis would also be the same color of the back as was the lens camera surround.
This flagship almost reminds of my favourite chocolate bar of yesterday's. Everything is cut down and reduced.
Don't get me wrong, the build quality is still high, but lower than what my expectations are from Samsung.

The buttons and the frame are pretty solid. Also, the phone is not heavy weighted, which is excellent for one hand usage. I'm not giving it a 5/5 just because I think that the aluminum frame could be of a better material. It scratches easily. If you simply miss the charging port at night and gently scratch the frame, it will get scuffed.

Are you sure? Dont know there, but here the frame does match the color of the back. My brother got a blue s10 and its frame is different from my white one.

materials are great and feel very premium, the only downside is you need a case

i designed an app to disable the edge display

this is something noone else has thought of either because it's a very stupid idea or because noone wanted it or thought about it, but i thought i could try any way, this app disables the edge display on the galaxy note 10, it disables it both visually and physically, touch will be completely disabled, i plan on having button shortcuts added too so you can launch the camera for example like a shutter button, this is a very niche idea that i doubt will be of interest to anyone, i am considering releasing it just as an experiment though, i made this thread to see what interest it gets in order to know if i should release it or not, my way of thinking when it comes to apps is just different, i don't like curves i don't like edge displays hence why i tried to get rid of it both for design and for the picture being distorted by the curve, theres ofcourse bugs associated with this, as the screen is meant to reach to the edge text or buttons can be difficult or impossible to press, so yeah a very niche idea but honestly it's growing on me to the point of the phone looking strange when i disable the app, it completely changes the look of the phone makes it almost unrecognizable like a note 9 with a flat display

Wasn't able to add a picture

It sounds interesting, I will try it if you release it

It really is growing on me

thank you i may actually do that at first i thought it was a stupid idea everyone would hate but it's growing on me see the last picture i posted it's not ugly.

Good luck for you. But just curious why you bought this phone if you don't like curve screen.
Your idea is basically making a think bezel at the side.
Regarding accidently touching, Samsung already made an app called Edge Touch, which can customize area that immune to touch.

well theres no new phone without an edge display, theres two things i hate with new phones, edge displays and curved display corners, i just want a square flat display but thats pretty much if not impossible, i bought the note 10+ because it looks similar to a sony xperia with thin bezels, i only bought the note 10+ because it has a boxy design something that appeals to me, otherwise i would never buy it if it looked like a galaxy s10 i wouldn't even look in it's direction, i just tolerated the edge display but i never wanted it it ruins the phone the curved display corners ruins it too these are things that makes me want to send it back and buy a sony again but sony has curved displaycorners too which i hate so much i ended up sending the xperia 1 back as i could not stand those corners, the bezels on a xperia 1 or 5 are also uneven thicker at the top than the bottom which i can't stand i am also not a big fan of the 21:9 aspectratio which leaves practically no phone left, all phones look exactly the same the one plus 7 looks like a galaxy, the rog phone looks like a galaxy with thin bezels and ridiculous back, what i wouldn't pay for a sony xperia xz1 same metal build and design with an oled panel and bezels as thin as the note 10+ i would pay 1500 or more for that for that as i find myself wanting to go back to my xz1, the note 10+ is not good enough for that cost but it's very very close, the design makes me incredibly biased towards it, i also don't like how warm the display is even at the colest possible setting every time i look at the xz1 i just prefer the display more, i know about that app i use it myself, this app was meant to also remove the edge display visually.

s10e is way too round so i can't get that one
mi6t too round
oneplus 7 too round and a notch
what i require from a anew phone
1.boxy design like the note 10+ (anything rounder than the note 10+ and i won't even consider it i got the huawei mate 10 pro and it's nice but too round but i still got it as i knew flat square displays were a dying breed)
2.square flat display with no rounded screen corners
these are two things that simply do not exist in a new phone apart from the razer phone but that one has giant bezels and no oled, for some reason they are that rare the xperia 1 and 5 is as close as i can get, xperia 1 and 5 and note 10+ are the only phones for my taste theres nothing else i've looked everywhere it just doesn't exist it seems people are obsessed with round phones why i don't know, it's like i am an alien when it comes to smartphone design taste, i just don't understand why people want a curved display and when they say anything bad about it it's that it's pretty but not practical, i neither want it for the look or for it's feel.

I'm not obsessed and think that the wrong term, The edge Display (Agreed not practical) as in its functionality, however it does aid in the slimmer feel, mainly yes aesthetic, I have the Mate 20 X 5G also, that is a flat Display (7.2" of goodness) but I do appreciate the curve as it looks and yea feels good.
We are all into different things and for an OEM or OEMs to cater for every individual likes or wants (needs) then come on that's just not viable.
You are another level cookie ...... cant imagine there will ever be that device for you, especially now with the waterfall Display and folding phone Era
Not having a good not everyone is comfortable with the curve that's perfectly fine, but it's not going to change with Samsung, They might evolve the note line into the fold, but as if now the curve is here to stay.
The App is a solution for you and if it makes it a better experience then that's great, for me personally, obviously I bought the Note knowing its curve, so its neither a hindrance or a bother to me....

www.facebook.com/symetium/videos/2135545376537234/
did a curved design too this is where a curve is justified and i do like that type of curved design
and the app was not made just for that reason it was also made as a fun test

i use edge touch as that also disables the edge screens , find it within goodlock

Apple is trying really hard to make their phones uglier than the Pixel! Have you seen the new design?

Late reaction but I too want the ability to deactivate the edges of my screen. My reason is that that XServer XSDL used in combination with Linux Deploy will take all the available screen to display and that leads to buttons on the curved edges being almost hidden. I realise this is either very difficult or impossible to achieve and that a simpler solution would be to find/make another XServer application but this can be help in other situations. But since this thread is there I was hoping to check if zzcool or anyone else had a solution.

If you use something like the Zizo Bolt case accidental touches just don't happen.
This phone need a good case or it will be damaged... eventually.
I use the curve portion to house One Handed Operation plus, it works out nicely.
Occasionally I need to rotate into Landscape mode when cut/pasting, more often I do that for lengthening the search bar though.
I like the curved display... after some adjustment.
The square corners is what I really like... rounded corners look hideous.
iPhones look goofy... trix are for kids
