Given the hardware configuration, don’t look at the G4 Stylus as a gaming device. With a 1.4GHz MediaTek MT6592 octa-core CPU, Mali-450 MP GPU, and 1GB LPDDR3 RAM, it’s only good for light to medium tasks. Although UI navigation is smooth, app launches and switches tend to be slower than we’d like. It would have been better though if LG provided it with 2GB RAM considering the price.
Call quality is good on the G4 Stylus and accepts to micro-sized SIM cards. There’s no LTE so you’re stuck with 3G mobile data and there’s no NFC as well.
While the CPU, RAM, and internal storage seem underwhelming, LG made sure that the battery life is not something to scoff at. Packed with a 3,000mAh removable battery it was able to last 9 hours 34 minutes on PC Mark’s battery bench.
In our routine test which involves playing a 1080p file on loop in Airplane mode at 50% brightness and volume with headset plugged in, and we got a good 12 hours and 9 minutes worth of playback.
The LG G4 Stylus is a stylish and good-looking smartphone with a nice large display and a decent camera with Laser AF. It also comes with a stylus for those moments that you want to use it as a notepad. Although useful, the overall experience is impaired by the very limited RAM and internal storage. You can ignore this if you’re a very light user but for it’s asking price of Php10,990 it will be difficult considering that its competitors are offering better specs at a much lesser cost.
