LG G Flex LS995

The LG G Flex has self healing and is pretty durable withstanding a 32 kg weight as well as a human elbow and sitting on it.  Interesting video to watch.  Personally I think the LG G Flex is more interesting than the Samsung Galaxy Round since it seems to bring more to the table.

Another interesting thing is that the LG G Flex looks to have the same multiwindow feature as Samsung which LG calls Dual Window.  I hope LG doesn't get sued for it and can use it because that is the one feature that I liked about Samsung phones and hoping it gets brought to the LG without issues.  I really liked the Samsung multiwindow feature and I hope to see this feature brought to the LG G Flex and hopefully the LG G2 in the Android 4.4 KitKat update. Watch from the 0:50 - 1:20 mark.  What is also great is that the LG G Flex will be the first LG smartphone that will contain a microUSB 3.0 port.

I wonder when this thing will hit the FCC. I really hope this is triband LTE device at this point and Sprint Spark available out of the box.

I hope so too Eric. And I hope it'll be available before the end of the year.

AWWWWWEEEESOMEE.  Can't wait to play with it.  I hear its also has microUSB 3.0 too so that will be LG's first smartphone using microUSB 3.0.  I just hope it comes preinstalled with the Dual Window feature for multitasking.  What LG really should do is bring that Dual Window feature to the LG G2 in the KitKat update.

I'm just glad it's Tri band, the more of those available the better.

At this point, I would be highly shocked if there were any more high end LTE smartphones that were still single band.  The top 3 OEMs for Android phones: LG, HTC and Samsung have showed that they are making triband LTE phones from this point forward.  The Note 3 for whatever reason was an anomaly but was probably in the works since Spring 2013 so it was borderline.

I would too, but my point is that the more Tri band phone Sprint sells the more likely the average consumer will end up with one, thus giving them a better experience.

EDIT: damn it seems it was already posted :(

 

HAHA..nickel beat you to it.  But yes it looks to be a solid device.  Triband LTE support.

So, which thread are we going to use, this one or the LS995 one?

 

I think the responses in the two threads should be combined and the title of the thread is changed to "LG G Flex (LS995)"

And now it appears that we have a launch date for Sprint: available online on Jan 31st and in store on Feb 7th. Sprint gets it first! :tu:

I think I may pick up a G Flex to try on AT&T once they drop down to about $350.  It may be soon since LG devices don't hold their value.   :clock:

I'm thinking about picking one up as well. The idea of a curved, flexible form factor is intriguing, so I will definitely be checking it out once it hits the stores.

    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.    
    • What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
