By the numbers: Lumia 950 / XL vs the Android competition
Android smartphones and the iPhone tend to lead the way in the mobile market but Microsoft hopes that Windows 10 can change this status quo and has today unveiled two new devices to hoping to do just that: Lumia 950 and the Lumia 950 XL.
The most advanced Windows smartphones ever produced, the Lumia 950 and the Lumia 950 XL may certainly make a stand in the market but how do they compare to the best that Android has to offer? For this comparison, we’re bringing out the big guns in the form of the Galaxy G6 Edge, Galaxy Note 5, Xperia Z5 Premium, the LG G4 and the Google Nexus 6P.

While many predicted that display technology would plateau at Full HD or QHD, this year has seen Samsung push the boat out with the curved QHD AMOLED display on the Edge range and Sony has trumped the competition with the introduction of the world’s first 4K smartphone display on the Xperia Z5.
The Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL are the first Windows powered smartphones to offer Quad HD resolution and with a pixel density of over 500 pixels per inch on each AMOLED panel, the displays can certainly challenge the best that Android has to offer. A key feature of the new devices is Glance Screen, which allows Microsoft to only turn the pixels it needs to display information at a glance as soon as you pull your phone out of your pocket.
Although Microsoft has previously insisted that the optimisation of the Windows core means Windows Phone doesn’t need quad-core devices, the company has included the latest Qualcomm chipsets inside its new devices. The smaller Lumia 950 comes with the hexa-core Snapdragon 808 found inside the Nexus 5X and the LG G4 while the Lumia 950 XL comes with an octa-core Snapdragon 810, as found in the Nexus 6P and Sony Xperia Z5 Premium.
With so much processing power, none of these smartphones are going to struggle in demanding scenarios but there’s a key reason Microsoft chose these processors for its new devices; when paired with the new DisplayDock, both smartphones turn into a fully fledged PC. Windows 10 comes with universal apps, which means when connected to the DisplayDock and sharing to a big display, the same Windows Phone apps become full-sized desktop PC apps.
Last year, Microsoft completed its acquisition of Nokia and with it, the company gained Nokia’s pedigree for making smartphone cameras. In the time since Nokia last made a flagship smartphone, Android cameras have improved dramatically and Microsoft’s latest smartphones certainly have a challenge ahead.
Galaxy Note 5 vs Sony Xperia Z5 Premium
The company says the handsets have a 20MP PureView camera with Carl ZEISS Optics, fifth-generation Optical Image Stabilisation and a three-LED flash that helps to prevent Red Eye and results in clear photos. In comparison, Samsung has its highly impressive 16MP OIS camera in the Galaxy Note 5 (and S6 Edge), LG has a 16MP camera with OIS, laser autofocus and a colour spectrum sensor and Sony has a new 23MP camera inside the Xperia Z5.
Google has taken a different approach in the Nexus 6P, packing it with a 12MP camera with much larger pixels (1.55µm pixel size) and laser autofocus, which produces outstanding quality images. Which camera is best on the market remains to be seen but there’s no doubt that any of these smartphone cameras will be good enough for whatever you throw at it.

| Weight | 150g | 164g | 180g | 171g | 132g | 155g |
When it comes to additional features, each of these handsets has something that makes it truly unique; Samsung’s S-Pen sets the Galaxy Note 5 aside, while the unique dual-curved edge set the Galaxy S6 Edge apart. Sony remains committed to water and dust resistance, while LG have opted for a removable battery and expandable storage – which are missing from many flagships – to set the G4 aside. For the Nexus 6P, Google has aimed to combine premium specs with a super smooth experience and fast updates to set its flagship apart from the competition.
There’s no denying that fingerprint sensors are a key part of the experience and most of these flagships sport one, except for the LG G4 and the new Lumia. Instead, Microsoft’s new devices come with a feature called Windows Hello that promises military-grade security and lets you unlock your phone just by looking at it. Which is perfect for you depends on whether you want a physical fingerprint sensor or want your phone to unlock automatically, but there’s no denying that biometrics are having an increasingly-growing part to play in the way we interact with our smartphones.
A key difference between the new Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL and the best of Android comes down to the platform as Microsoft’s latest devices run on Windows 10, while the other devices run on, well, Android. Microsoft’s platform is similar to Windows Phone 8 (albeit with some major improvements) and for the most part, the simplified interface and ease-of-use certainly make the handsets an interesting alternative to Android. Although Windows doesn’t have all the apps of Android, it does have most of them and devices like the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL may help to reduce the gap further.
So what do you think of Microsoft’s new devices and would you buy either? Let us know your views in the comments below guys!
Which T-Mobile phones will get Android 6.0 Marshmallow?
Wondering if your phone will get Android 6.0 Marshmallow? Be sure you are not alone, we’re all desperately waiting for that notification. Android fans are quick to jump on Google whenever they learn a new major update has become available from Google, and the lack of information can be rather frustrating. T-Mobile subscribers won’t have to look through multiple news sites and forums, though. Magenta is being awesome and revealing its entire upgrade plans for Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
T-Mobile’s dedicated Android 6.0 upgrade page is pretty straight forward. It shows a list of devices that will eventually get the new software. Devices are then labeled into 3 categories: Manufacturer Development, T-Mobile Testing and Completed. These pretty much describe the stage at which each phone can be found.
The list of devices to get Android 6.0 Marshmallow includes the following:
- HTC One M8
- HTC One M9
- LG G3
- LG G4
- LG G Stylo
- Nexus 5
- Nexus 6
- Nexus 7
- Nexus 9
- Samsung Galaxy Note 4
- Samsung Galaxy Note 5
- Samsung Galaxy Note Edge
- Samsung Galaxy S5
- Samsung Galaxy S6
- Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge
- Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+
- Samsung Galaxy Tab S2
As you can expect, very few of these devices are on the Completed stage at the time of this post’s publishing. Most of these are still under Manufacturer Development, essentially leaving Nexus devices alone in other categories. Most Nexi are under Completed, by the way; only the Nexus 6 is still undergoing network testing.
What a handy tool this is! T-Mobile users can just click on the button below to head over to the carrier’s Android 6.0 Marshmallow update page. Details will continue to be updated as the roll-out advances. Don’t we wish all manufacturers did this?!

T-Mobile details which devices will see Android 6.0 Marshmallow
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
Earlier today Google released the coveted Android 6.0 Marshmallow factory images for the Nexus line of devices. While a good number of you out there are all about the Nexus and more than capable of installing the images on to your devices, there are still plenty of standard users out there who use other devices. If you are a T-Mobile subscriber then you might be curious as to which devices will be making the cut from Magenta. While the list might not surprise some, it is still good to have handy as a bit of a secondary confirmation. After all, a manufacturer could say they are going to make the update available, but it is still on the carrier to push it out.
In the case of Magenta they offer up a pretty nifty little page that keeps users more informed than some carriers out there. The page lists out devices along with the current stage of the update. It doesn’t offer up any time lines as to when an update is expected to move tot he next stage or when the update may become available, but if you check in frequently you could be surprised by a “Complete” status and begin mashing the update button.
Unsurprisingly we see the Nexus 5, Nexus 6
Samsung
- Galaxy S5
- Galaxy S6
- Galaxy S6 Edge
- Galaxy S6 Edge+
- Galaxy Note 4
- Galaxy Note 5
- Galaxy Tab S2
LG
- G3
- G4
- G Stylo
HTC
- One M8
- One M9
Some devices, like the Galaxy Note 4, you see additional details. For instance, the T-Mobile Note 4 hasn’t seen Android 5.1.1 because it is skipping straight to Android 6.0.
I will keep my eyes peeled for all my Magenta sporting friends for updates to as many of these devices as possible. Hopefully they will all be coming sooner rather than later. However, we have seen some updates take quite a while in the past.

Could the LG G2 get Android 6.0?
An interesting piece of information showed up yesterday, indicating that it won’t be long before the LG G3 and G4 get the upgrade to Android 6.0. And according to recently leaked benchmarks, the LG G2 could be seeing Android Marshmallow very soon as well.
The phone was caught on Geekbench running Android 6.0. It certainly wouldn’t be surprising if the device received the update. After all, with the Snapdragon 800 chipset, 2.2GHz quad-core processor, and 2GB of RAM, the handset can more than handle the latest Android has to offer.
LG hasn’t made any official statements regarding their devices getting Android 6.0, so it wouldn’t be wise to get your hopes up just yet. Either way, the LG G2, G3, and G4 can most definitely handle the Android Marshmallow, so it’d be quite a disappointment if LG were to shy away from offering it on the G2 and G3.

Android Marshmallow update for the LG G3 and LG G4 are coming very soon
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
When Android Lollipop was released late last year, LG was one of the first to release their software update to their then latest flagship, the LG G3. While that meant that the LG G3 wouldn’t get Android 5.1, it was still impressively fast for a manufacturer not called Google or Motorola. Although it remains unannounced, it looks like LG is about the repeat the feat with the Android Marshmallow update for the LG G3 and LG G4 as LG’s Korean support website has been updated already with instructions on how to update the device to Android 6.0 i.e. Android Marshmallow.
While that’s no real confirmation that the update is coming soon, the pages have since been taken down, which is a sure sign that they were prematurely posted. Naturally we’ll have to wait for the official announcement, but presumably it will be in the next week or two.

LG V10 vs LG G4: quick look
Now that the LG V10 is out, you can definitely expect a lot of coverage, including some comparisons. But there is one phone we just have to put the new handset against. We are obviously talking about the LG G4.
The LG V10 isn’t exactly the G4’s successor. These high-end smartphones are targeting different audiences and both serve their purposes. The real question here is: which is the right one for you? Let’s take a look at them and figure that out!
Design
LG hasn’t strayed too far from its winning formula when it comes to the design. The LG G4 is a very well made smartphone, and such remains the case with the LG V10. Both include signature elements like the rear button layout and thin bezels in the front. There are some significant changes in the newer handset, however.
The LG V10 sports much more durable materials and a sturdier build quality. This gadget is made with a stainless steel frame and a plastic-based material LG calls DuraSkin (soft to the touch, yet very durable). It’s definitely a much stronger phone than the LG G4, as the V10 was certified with MIL-STD-810G Transit Drop Compliant shock protection.
The back also features a grid-like pattern that is unlike anything we have seen coming from LG in the past. It looks good. Probably not as elegant as leather, but it does give you the feeling that you are holding a resistant device.
And while we are on the topic of leather, that is something that truly differentiates the LG G4 – its distinctive leather covers. You can really make the LG G4 look unique, and it can even be customized on-the-go, as these back covers are replaceable.
Both devices feature removable back plates, giving you access to the battery and microSD card slot (both dying breeds in the mobile industry). And while the back buttons have made a return with the V10, the latest flagship also includes capacitive features and a fingerprint reader in the power button.
Changes from the LG G4 are noticeable up front as well, particularly towards the top. The V10 features a secondary display and a dual front-facing camera setup right above the main screen. These new elements do make the device longer, which is something you must also consider, as handling it will take some getting used to. On the other hand, the LG G4 was very comfortable to hold.
Oh, and let’s not forget them curves! The LG G4 had a curve (a la G Flex), which some argue make the phone fit better on your pocket, face and hand.
Display
Both the LG G4 and the V10 feature nearly identical IPS LCD Quantum Displays with a QHD (2560×1440) resolution, so you won’t be missing much in this department. The only difference with these panels is that the G4’s measures 5.5 inches, while the V10 screen is 5.7 inches. This results in slightly different pixel densities (538 vs 513), but you likely won’t see a difference there.
By the way, LG’s screens may not be as vibrant or deep, but their offer color accuracy that is second to none.
The LG V10 does cause a stir by implementing a secondary screen, though, something you definitely won’t find in the G4. This 2.1-inch display has a 106×1040 resolution and retains a pixel count of 513 PPI (similar to the main screen). More about that in the software section.
Performance
Looking for performance? You will be disappointed by neither of these handsets. Both feature a Snapdragon 808 processor with an Adreno 418 GPU backing them up. The main difference is that the LG G4 has 3 GB of RAM, while the V10 offers extra power with 4 GB on board.
Regardless, both devices will be just as snappy and smooth, but the V10 may get a bit of a boost with better multi-tasking.
Hardware
While the LG G4 comes with 32 GB of internal storage, the V10 doubles that with 64 GB. The good news is that both come with a microSD card slot.
The V10 also sports a fingerprint reader, which can be used to unlock the phone, use Android Pay and perform other biometric authentication processes compatible with Android. This is something you definitely won’t find in the G4.
The LG V10 also introduces 32-bit Hi-Fi DAC by ESS Technology, which can automatically detect connected devices and provide sound control options. It’s also the first commercial device to adopt Qualcomm’s QFE2550 closed-loop antenna tuning solutions to improve voice quality and expand network coverage.
On the battery front we can find the same 3000 mAh battery in either gadget. This is no longer a special occurrence, but the lure about these phones is that the batteries are removable, which means you can carry multiple spares and swap at will.
Camera
The LG G4 has an amazing camera… one of the best in the industry. This means LG fans will be happy to hear the V10 retains the same technology on the main shooter. Both feature identical 16 MP sensors with an f/1.8 aperture lens, laser auto-focus and OIS (optical image stabilization).
These devices also offer the same level of deep manual control, which allows you to manipulate ISO, shutter speed, quality and more.
Now, let’s turn to the front, where there are more obvious differences. What’s up with those dual 5 MP front-facing cameras? The advantage is that these couple lenses allow for creating wider angle shots, which is definitely welcome.
Software
It’s obvious that these phones will come with very similar software experiences. They were both released in 2015 and run Android 5.1.1, with LG’s G UI layered on top. The experience is a little bloated, but things are getting better, and there are plenty of awesome features to be enjoyed. Not to mention LG’s optimizations between hardware and software, which do make the phone rather snappy and smooth.
The main difference in the software experience definitely rests on that secondary screen the LG V10 rocks. When your main display is off, the ticker can showcase the weather, time, battery and date. Things get pretty handy once you turn your phone on, though. This little display can save your shortcuts and favorite apps. I also love the fact that it displays notifications while one uses other functions of the phone. This means you can say goodbye to interruptions while watching a video, gaming or doing anything else.
Which one wins?
It’s hard to tell you which phone is “the best”, simply because we all have different needs and preferences. If you want a straight answer – the LG V10 is definitely the most impressive, powerful and full-featured of the two. It has that secondary display, a better front-facing camera, more RAM memory, more internal storage, improved audio and a much, much stronger build (see our LG V10 drop test for more on that).
On the other hand, the LG G4 fits better in the hand, has a curved screen and a very elegant (and customizable) design. It will also likely be more affordable and still has all the awesome specs, stunning camera, removable battery and expandable storage support. The choice just depends on your needs and how much you value the extra things the LG V10 has to offer.

Google Nexus 5X versus LG G4
Today was a big day for the Android world, as Google introduced two all-new devices, the Huawei-made Nexus 6P and LG’s Nexus 5X. Both are impressive phones, but the Nexus 5X was arguably the most anticipated given how well the original Nexus 5 was received.
The Nexus 5 was a great smartphone, but it didn’t stack up well with big contenders like the LG G4 as far as specs go. But now that the Nexus 5X is here as the Nexus 5’s successor, let’s just see how well the Nexus 5X and LG G4 contend, shall we? Hit the break to see these two players go head to head!
Design
The newly announced Nexus 5X sizes in at 147 x 72.6 x 7.9mm and weighs a light 136 grams. It’s fairly plain on the front, but has the usual button layout–power, volume rocker, and SIM card tray on both sides of the device. Around the back you’ll find a rather large Nexus logo with LG’s own logo right under that.
The LG G4’s features similar dimensions at 148.9 x 76.1 x 6.3 – 9.8mm and weighs in at 155 grams. It’s button layout is more unique, sporting the power button and volume rocket on the backside of the device right below the camera.
Winner: Nexus 5X
Display
The LG G4 sports a 5.5-inch 2560 x 1440 IPS LCD display. Additionally, it has a pixel density of 538ppi and is equipped with Corning’s Gorilla Glass 3. It’s a gorgeous display and easily one of the best on the market.
The LG-made Nexus 5X has a 5.2-inch Full HD 1920 x 1280 LCD display. It also sports a pixel density of 424 pixels-per-inch. As for protection, it’s also using Gorilla Glass 3.
Winner: LG G4
Hardware
Google’s Nexus 5X has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 chipset, a quad-core 1.4GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and a dual-core 1.8GHz Cortex-A57 processor, backed with 2GB of RAM, an Adreno 418 GPU, 16/32GB of internal storage, a 12.3-megapixel rear camera, and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera. Interestingly, under that rear camera is a fingerprint scanner and there’s also USB Type-C support.
Under the hood of the LG G4 is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 808 chipset, a quad-core 1.4GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and a dual-core 1.8GHz Cortex-A57 processor. It has 3GB of RAM, an Adreno 418 GPU, 32GB of internal storage, a 16-megapixel camera, and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera.
Winner: It’s a tie.
Battery
The LG G4 features a massive 3,000mAh battery, and is equipped with Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 2.0 fast charging technology. In addition to that, it does have Qi wireless charging capabilities for those that want to pick up a wireless charging pad.
On the other hand, the Nexus 5X is equipped with a smaller 2,700mAh battery. That’s not necessarily a bad thing considering the noticeable difference in screen specifications, meaning the display is putting out less power, thus using less battery.
Winner: LG G4
Software
Google’s Nexus 5X is running the latest version of Android–Android Marshmallow. As has been historically the case, the benefit of owning a Nexus like the 5X is the lack of bloatware, faster speeds, and timely updates.
The other extreme is the LG G4, which is running the UX 4.0 interface atop of Android 5.1.1. Much like TouchWiz, UX comes with a lot of features, such as QuickMemo+, a built-in File Manager, a bevy of camera options, and much more. Unfortunately, LG isn’t exactly known for its timely updates.
Winner: It comes down to preference.
Availability and Price
The LG G4 is immediately available for purchase and will normally run you $199 on a new two-year contract or $699 outright. However, there are installment plans available through most carriers ranging from $15 – $35/mo.
In contrast, the Nexus 5X is currently pre-order only and will not be available through any major retail outlets or carriers. Those interested can pre-order it from the official Google Store, starting at $379 for the 16GB model.
Wrap Up
And there you have it folks, the Nexus 5X is almost identical to the LG G4! Manufactured by the same company–LG–that isn’t quite surprising. Despite having lower specs than its big brother the Nexus 6P, it’s still one powerful phone at a much lower price point.
Both the LG G4 and Nexus 5X are nice devices, and when it comes down to it, you’re just choosing the experience you want–one from LG or one from Google. It’s merely a matter of preference, as in this case, one isn’t inherently better than the other on paper.

First LG G5 rumours suggests phone will have Snapdragon 820, custom camera sensor
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
The LG G4 is one of the standout devices of 2015, so it’s natural that we look forward to its eventual successor with high expectations. A new rumour has surfaced today which suggests that LG‘s next flagship, we’re assuming is called the LG G5, will have the latest and greatest processor from Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 820, as well as a custom Sony camera sensor. The news of the processor isn’t particularly surprising seeing as how good the Snapdragon 820 is expected to be, but recall that LG shunned the more powerful Snapdragon 810 this year over rumours of overheating in favour of the more stable Snapdragon 808 – we wouldn’t expect this to be the case again next year, but there’s always a chance.
The camera sensor mentioned is also quite interesting – the rumour says that the sensor will be a 20MP camera, up from the 16MP sensor in the LG G4, and it will measure just 0.5-inch wide and built by Sony. Given how impressive LG’s cameras have been over the last few years, we’re properly excited to see how this turns out if this rumour turns out to be true. Naturally, we still have the better part of half a year before LG will be releasing the LG G5, so we’ll keep our minds open for now.

Deal: Pick up a brand new 32GB unlocked LG G4 from eBay for $399.99
It seems like the LG G4 has been consistently dropping in price ever since it made its way to market, and that still holds true today. If you’ve been waiting to get your hands on LG’s latest flagship but aren’t keen on paying the full retail price, there’s a deal on eBay right now that may be worth your while.
Right now, you can purchase a brand new factory unlocked LG G4 (H815) with 32GB of storage for just $399.99. Since this phone is factory unlocked, it won’t come with any carrier bloatware, which is a big plus. You’ll be able to use it on either AT&T or T-Mobile’s networks, but it should be noted that it doesn’t come with band 12 LTE support. What’s more, you can select from various color options including Black, White, Gold, Black Leather, Brown Leather, Red Leather or Orange Leather. You don’t need to pay any extra money for the leather options, either.

Although it may have been out-shined by Samsung’s Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, the LG G4 is still a really nice phone. It sports a big 5.5-inch Quad HD display, a Snapdragon 808 processor, 3GB of RAM, microSD expansion up to 128GB, and has a very powerful 16MP rear camera. The 3000mAh battery is also removable, which is something many newer flagships have been ditching as of late.
If you’re interested, head to the eBay link below to purchase your own G4.
