Abstract: Curved. Adjective: A sure indicator that a phone is designed around a gimmick. Sample sentence: “Hey, I bought a curved phone yesterday,” said the dumb gadget enthusiast. At least, that's how it's been for the past couple years. LG's new G Flex 2 redefine...
The LG G Flex 2 sports a uniquely immersive and comfortable arched design, a sharp 1080p display, the latest Snapdragon 810 processor and a scratch-resistant coating
The device's camera takes muted photos, its battery capacity is smaller than its predecessor, and performance can be slow at times
No longer just a daring experiment, the G Flex 2 finally has the killer screen and top-of-the-line processor that its bold design deserves....

There are few smartphones around that can match the ability of the LG G Flex 2 to turn heads, so if that's a key part of what you want from a handset, there's nothing here that's going to put you off. It's a fast phone, and the screen, camera and battery...
