And So, as far as the, at the end of July sale new LG G3 (actually came much earlier, but in a connected on Tverskaya I saw recently. However, the films do not have the display). Apparatus with ROSTEST is already available in a connected and Yulmart, and even in some stores.

Then I generally talk about unit, as well as give a few examples based on a comparison with the iPhone 5s and HTC One m8.

Impressions from LG G3

Just recently I bought a this unit to replace your LG G2. I want to say, what, really, LG has worked on a new flagship: inserted the display resolution QuadHD (well, or 4K), added the ability to insert a USB flash drive, increased display, while leaving the device is very compact and stylish appearance.

Detailed description

Display

As I have said: 4K display resolution, the picture looks nice, natural colors, illumination does not interfere with the white color to be white, on paper, and black – black, in general,, the absence of any color. I found on Yulmart Review, then the display, allegedly, worse, than HTC m8 iPhone 5s and what I can not thoroughly answer, I can only say, I'm not staring at screens all three phones and did not compare himself all colors, but the picture on this display appears clearly unrealistic. In general, result: display built on IPS matrix, color reflects the high quality and realistic.

Cpu

Since I have undertaken to compare the device with HTC one m8 and iPhone 5s, then let's compare:

• iPhone 5S has a dual core 64bit processor with a frequency 1300 МГЦ Cortex A7, which Apple advertised and praised.
• HTC One m8 has a processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 with 4 cores frequency 2300 MHz
• G3 processor bestowed Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 with 4 cores frequency 2500mgts

We will understand: iPhone 5S looks like a wimp here, if it faces off cores and frequencies, but it will work fast, the interface will not brake, because ios built on * nix and architecture for iPhone applications written in objective c, so it always takes a binary program, and nothing ever compiles. undoubtedly, this processor will be good to save battery, games and applications will not slow down for about a year, perhaps even two years, but still 1300 MHz is not enough, if required to do heavy calculation.

HTC One m8 has the same processor, as G3, but weaker in terms of frequency, albeit slightly. The advantage will be that, that will warm less, than the G3, and will also consume less, Although all of these things in the android phones are always tuned what some enthusiasts and optimization processor available by installing the new kernel. In this video shows a comparison of the rate of interfaces. In the video, HTC LG udelyvaet rapidity (thanks interface HTC Sense!), but testing 100% made in the mode Dalvik runtime (which, by the way, It varies both phones! Yay!). The ART LG is much faster and more pleasant, HTC, likely, too, will not be worse off switch in ART.

ROM

Everything is simple: iPhone 5s has 1GB of RAM, and that it is enough for all applications, even though there are few, and could add! But Apple decided to get programmers to write code, which intelligently uses memory. The device is operating normally, as follows. Though here after installing Jailbreak and hanging heap of useful tweaks will decrease the amount of free operatives, and memory, as money, many never, there is only a little and only: a couple of years ago for Apple 1 GB was enough, but now everything is going to, that this little.

The HTC One m8 integrated 2GB of RAM, clocked at 933mgts (if you believe 4pda), for android 4.4 2GB – enough. free memory is always somewhere after 400-500MB, the system will devour everything in the cache. This does not mean, that everything will be blunt and slow down: Android will give much any application memory, how much it will ask. And if not to be missed – kill some applications in order to free up more memory, so that, if so sue, the program includes all 2GB memory, minusuem this about 500MB, who uses the system, and will remain 1,5 GB of memory on your games and applications.

In LG G3 more interesting: there is a version ROSTEST, which has 2GB RAM, and version EVROTEST, that comes with 3GB of RAM. It's all the same, that of the HTC: Android will manage the memory and will be available for the 1.5 GB of memory games and applications in the case of versions with and ROSTEST 2,5 GB of RAM in the case of the version with EUROTEST. Agree: extra gigabyte is not really an extra.

Support for LTE, 3G, Wifi

In Iphone 5s there is only one model with support for LTE in Russia. And it will cost more, of course. Though actually, if you do jailbreak, you can simple hack to enable LTE on almost any iPhone 5s. The device also supports 5Ghz Wi-fi network standard 801.11a / b / g / n and 3G network too.

The HTC one m8 LTE working in Russia without any problems, Wi-fi supports 5Ghz all standards (including super-fast Gigabit 801.11ac standard), Well, as with all 3G.

LG G3 LTE supports Russian, on ROSTEST everything works out of the box, but on EUROTEST LTE once I have not earned. Had rutovat phone and delete the file from the folder LTEconfig.apk / system / app.

Camera

The iPhone is set back 8megapikselnaya camera from Sony, enough quality and good camera. Also there is some processor for images, which is only concerned with image processing to help the CPU. This allows you to quickly take pictures, as well as shoot video slowmotion (one of the chips iPhone 5s).

The HTC One m8 set behind two 4MP camera with Ultrapixel technology, but I always thought advertising. Front costs 5MP camera on the (without supertechnologies). I do not know, why there is a second front camera (3D stereoscopic do???) and image quality can not say anything, only to watch and test yourself.

In LG G3 camera interface is simplified to the impossibility! It'S Nothing “excess”: you can not even adjust the ISO sensitivity hands; You can only adjust the flash, hdr and option “chiiz” (if you say chiiz, whiskey or LG, then clicks the phone, he sees). The camera itself to 13MP, photographs really quickly, no more welcomed all, that the focus is fast thanks to the laser focus! Turns, that the laser, probably, It measures the distance of an object, therefore only the camera adjusts focus at the desired distance. Manual focus can not be adjusted, unfortunately.

Sound

iPhone 5s is a player in a sense,, ie includes iPods. Ayodhya could never boast sound quality, a player interface, then the same: sound tinted, CAP Weak, no FLAC will not support out of the box (NEVER!), Only if you put a third-party player, but why? 24bit audio characteristics in principle supported out of the box (формат go, alac, wav), but with a maximum sampling rate 48 kc. In other words, listen then rips with no sense Vinyl. Although the sound for the average listener will be enough normal, but I spoiled my ear has heard, the sound is not so, but especially to find fault with this I can not.

The HTC One m8 used Beats Sound technology, which embellish the sound is essentially an equalizer in my opinion. In general, besides the ordinary listener music fans have nothing to fear, it will arrange everything, WOW effect will be even.

The LG G3 Sound decided not to split hairs, We put some very simple chip, likely (in the G2 was Wolfson audiophile, which the, even shouting at high frequencies, but still gave good sound)

Scope of delivery

iPhone is ROSTEST (+20000 to price) and EUROTEST (less adequate price). Rostest can in theory exchange in which case a new, it gives an official guarantee from the apple. EUROTEST warranty fix will be only at the service center, which offers shops, in which you bought the device.

The iPhone is always the same package: tupeyshie headphones Earpods for schoolchildren, book of 50000 languages ​​the word “Hello!” (also in different languages), pin to open the tray simkarty, charging (in Japan or as three fork, or two as in the US plosskie, version only and ROSTEST – earthing-pin)

Complete set HTC One m8 not seen, can not say anything. Well, at least the European outlet there just give, I think.

In LG G3 with ROSTEST places without headphones included. Charging for evrorozetok there. In the version with EUROTEST Outlet also for Europe (in Russia is connected, Hooray), and there are headphones! Headphones, by the way, very good, the same, as in G2.

custom, rekaveri, root, etc..

Here it gets interesting: LG G3 currently has no rekaveri TWRP or CWM (although there TWRP, but it can not enter without a computer) already appeared first TWRP, which is sewn into the system. However, there is no support for Loki, means, that if you set a custom rom, then you first need to flash official ROM from LG that version, which is based on cereals custom rom. They must be the same, but the HTC One m8 has all these buns (well, he, properly, I came before, HTC also makes it possible to officially unlock bootloader, and at the same time immediately void your warranty). В LG бутлоадер залочен, official unlock and never will be, LG will not be anything unblock – they said so yourself, We have to wait for the informal (if). I suggest you sign petition for unlocking the bootloader. Well, at least, have root (links to 4pda below)!

Appeared recently “Bump” – a kind of signature for the nuclei and rekaveri. This gave ample opportunity to raise any core phone. Congratulations to all the victory! All information about the nuclei, firmware and other things here http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=616815

Alternatives

Since, I learned, that LG will not unblock loader, I decided, what, if you do not come out of all of a custom, I wanted to, I run to buy Sony Xperia Z3. In my opinion, this is the best, that now can be found in the phone market: great camera 20MP, sound, brand, no disappointment in the sense of downloaders and other, as well as a version with two SIM cards! That's just it would be necessary to study more, whether it is the same number of custom bikes, as well as on odnosimochnuyu. But personally, for me to have two SIM cards – this is great, as recently I switched to the operator YOTA, succeeding in this room. Samsungi do not like because of the AMOLED screens, which inaccurately transmitted color.
