LG G4 Concept




Been a long time since I tinkered around with Photoshop just for fun. Just wanted to modify the G3 a little bit here and there, but ended up going a little overboard. LG G4 concept perhaps. Lol. Anyway, this is how I would “change” the aesthetic of the G3, but of course it’s purely my personal preference.


  • Dual front facing stereo speakers

  • Even smaller bezels if it’s even possible

  • No front LG logo

  • Metal band surrounding the sides (think Nexus 6)

  • Small slit at the bottom to remove the back

  • Simplified LG logo on the back

  • Removal of FCC labels, etc

  • Slightly different rear buttons design

  • Rear button further away from camera so less likely to smudge the camera


That’s about it I guess. Hardware wise LG has been pretty decent in most aspects in recent years, even the camera and battery capacity. So the only thing I would prefer is if they went back to the G2’s screen size at 5.2” while making the bezels even smaller than they already are (fat hope, but one can dream).



Software wise I’m still not a fan of LG’s skin. Granted the one on the G3 is much improved over the G2, but it is still a bit too much for my taste. While Google’s stock Android would be nice, but it’s kinda unlikely to happen. An example of a company with a nice balance would be probably be HTC’s Sense 6 UI. It has HTC’s design language and flair, adding useful features to stock Android, while not going overboard.

Actually, end up it looks more like an LG Motorola Nexus mash up. Lol.
