Coolsmartphone | Leigh Geary

Premium quality build, design and features plus a form-factor that stands out. Fantastic camera, fast UI and stacks of storage.

Ubergizmo | Eliane Fiolet

The LG G Flex 2 is very impressive, both in terms of hardware specifications and pure product design. This is a very unique phone that is a refreshing change from the traditional small "slate" format.

The Street | Gary Krakow

Overall, we really like LG's new G Flex2 smartphone. It's a great combination of a large (but not too large) screen and modern features in a great-looking, ergonomically curved wrapper.

NotebookCheck | Florian Wimmer

This is a device for tech geeks who are looking for something out-of-the-ordinary. The second edition of LG's G Flex is still an eye-catcher. However, more practical devices are available for those simply looking for a phablet.

CNET UK | Lynn La

The LG G Flex 2 has what it takes to compete in this year's smartphone arms race. As it stands, the G Flex 2 falls a hair behind.

AndroidPit | Kris Carlon

The LG G Flex 2 is a very impressive phone that requires a lot of hard work to find flaws in. As a normal phone the G Flex 2 would be great, but adding a near-indestructable build quality makes it truly outstanding.

Phone Scoop | Eric M. Zeman

Even if the LG G Flex 2 weren't curved, it would be a great phone. LG did a bang up job designing and assembling a spiffy phone of remarkable quality... The Flex 2 nails pretty much every feature across the board. The screen looks fantastic, data and call performance was quite good, and battery life was superior.

Digital Trends | Andy Boxall

Curvaceous and capable, the LG G Flex2 should be a top choice for anyone who values style in their phone... The G Flex2's high-end specs are overshadowed by its even more superb aesthetics and ergonomics. It didn't end up bothering us much that the software had a hiccup or two, pre-launch, because LG has patched the phone and it works as fast as you'd expect.

The G Flex 2 is still a pricey little sod, just like its predecessor

The G Flex 2 seems like it's the kind of phone that would live or die by its striking design, but the truth is that it'd be fantastic with or without its curves.

The LG G Flex 2 is something different - a smartphone with a curved screen and body. It's certainly designed to attract attention, but is a practical option too, with careful thought going into its unique design. It's also a high-spec smartphone with an 8-core processor and an excellent camera.

Android Authority | Joshua Vergara

Great design and looks elevate this curved phone, but performance is hindered by a software experience that is not fully hashed out... It will be going too far to say that this isn't a worthy phone for daily usage, but without some real optimizations in the software, it's clear to us that this phone goes a few steps forward, but loses footing in where it counts most.

PC Advisor | Chris Martin

It's still packed with tech but it's a shame to see occasional laggy performance which puts a dampener on things.

T3 | John Mccann

More manageable in the hand, with an improved display and super speedy self-healing back - there's a lot to like about the LG G Flex 2. It's not small and it won't be cheap, but you'll be getting an unique device.

Pocket-lint | Chris Hall

Although the G Flex 2 might not stand up against the inbound flagship refreshes, it's an interesting device, an improvement over the original, and certainly a talking point. It's less a gimmick, more a unique, powerful prospect for those seeking something a little different.

PC Pro | Jonathan Bray

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 life all hit the mark too. Even if you ignore the curved screen for a moment, it's worth noting that the LG G Flex 2 offers pretty good value for money as well

SlashGear | Vincent Nguyen

If the price is right when US carriers weigh in over the coming weeks, and you can resist the charms of whatever Samsung and HTC have in store with the Galaxy S6 and One M9, that leaves the G Flex 2 a distinctive device well worth keeping on the shortlist.

LG's G Flex 2 is the company's second attempt at making a curved, flexible smartphone, and it's like the first try with properly bumped-up specs and a more manageable 5.5-inch screen.

Wired UK | Dave Oliver

The LG G Flex 2 has made some significant improvements to the original, with a beefed up processor and greatly improved screen. It's a little smaller overall, as is the battery, but with more sensible pricing this is now looking like a genuine contender.

The Telegraph | Sophie Curtis

In all, this is a highly desirable device, both aesthetically and practically. Apart from a few quibbles with the overheating and the shiny back, it's hard to fault.

Stuff | Andrew Williams

If you're after the ultimate smartphone, this isn't it, and in the coming weeks the flood of new flagships will only make that more obvious. But if you want one looks unique, feels great in the hand and has power and battery life to spare, there really is no better option than the G Flex 2.

Going back to the drawing board has paid off for LG because with the G Flex 2 they have managed to bring the specs of their flagship onto their wing-man category while preserving its quirky nature.

It's not a perfect phone, but it's a really great attempt at doing something different with a mobile phone.

The Verge | Vlad Savov

It stumbles on the more prosaic problems of software optimization, but that's where so many other phones have faltered, too. LG deserves credit for trying and succeeding at being different. Now the challenge is to be better.

pocketnow | Michael Fisher

Once LG corrects these issues, via its promised software updates or hardware revisions, the G Flex 2 might live up to the potential of its impressive specs and futuristic design. For now, it's more valuable as yet another reminder that specs aren't everything.

LG has certainly tried to produce a unique smartphone that breaks away from the usual mold of flat, boring slabs, I'll give them that, though unfortunately it hasn't quite come off. This brings me to the price.

OtherGadgette | Holly Brockwell

This phone shouldn't be positioned or priced as a flagship: it's a mid-ranger. And a good one, too... It looks cool, lasts ages, takes great pictures and has some really thoughtful features (like the button placement, or Gesture Shot). Yes, it has some big flaws: the WiFi issue, the overheating issue and the lag, but that's much more acceptable in a mid-range than a flagship.

LG has improved the design of its curved smartphone greatly with the LG G Flex 2, but it's a shame it didn't pay as much attention to performance.

Digital Versus | Rémi Jacquet

The G Flex 2 is proof that LG has faith in its curved smartphone design. But for us, this second offering was as disappointing as the first. What's more, the optimisation isn't tip-top: the Flex 2 is hindered by an SoC which has clearly disrupted everything. We're a long way from what you'd expect at the high end of the range.

The G Flex 2's curved screen looks great, but an overly glossy chassis and average battery life detract from its overall appeal

How HandsetExpert Works: We don't run ads on the site, or charge users to use the site. The site is funded using commission links, where we may receive a commission if a phone or tariff is purchased via HandsetExpert. Our editorial, phone scoring and recommendation system and deal-finding algorithms are not affected by this; we are fiercely committed to providing unbiased, independent information.

Important notes

  • We aim to compare as many tariffs in the marketplace from the UK as possible. However, we do not include every package (e.g. legacy tariffs no longer available, or tariffs only available to existing/specific customers), nor do we detail every aspect of every tariff (e.g. international out of bundle rates, on-network minutes, etc).
  • SIM only deals are limited to 30-day and 12-month plans, excluding shorter plans and Pay As You Go rates.
  • For tariffs which offer "unlimited" allowances, there may be times where traffic management or fair usage policies apply.
  • Additional charges for payment methods other than direct debit and for itemised/paper billing may apply.
  • Data only SIM cards, mobile broadband packages, and pay monthly tablets are currently not included in the comparison.
  • Out of bundle charges are not included in the calculation of Average Monthly Cost.
  • Contracts may not be available for some phone models in all colours and/or sizes, and a small number may only be available either as a pay monthly contract or a contract free handset, but not both.
  • Providers may increase the cost of your contract by RPI (inflation). However, if prices are increased that then cause a materially detrimental impact, you have the right to exit your contract without penalty. More details available from Ofcom plus comparative information on customer service and complaints handling & their guide on how to complain.
