LG G3 was announced in May 2014 and the phone was available for sale from in June 2014. It features a 5.5 inches True HD-IPS + LCD capacitive touchscreen with more than 16 million colors. As great as this phone may sound, it can create a lot of troubles when it gets stuck in various apps or stops responding to commands. Read this guide to learn how to deal with these issues by appealing to a smart procedure called a soft reset.
The resolution of the display is 1440 x 2560(~ 538 pixel density). The processor of the smartphone is a Quad-core 2.5 GHz Krait 400; Qualcomm MSM8974AC Snapdragon 801, while the graphic processor is Adreno 330. The phone has an internal memory of 16 GB or even 32 GB and 2 GB or 3 GB of RAM. The operating system is Android OS, v4.4.2 (KitKat), upgradable to v5.0 (Lollipop) and the device also comes with two amazing cameras. The 13 MP one is the main camera – it comes with auto focus and LED flash and also takes video – while the frontal 2.1 MP one is definitely not worth overlooking, either.
