Media Launch of the LG G Flex 2

The hottest curve is back with its latest launch.

With LG G Flex popular in demand, LG Electronics (LG) is back with the new G Flex2, a stunning smartphone that steals all the attention with its curves. 

A beautiful blend of form and function, the G Flex2 improves upon its predecessor with a more refined design, faster performance and greater convenience.

The launch was held at KU DÉ TA Restaurant, located at Level 57, Sky Park @ Marina Bay Sands. This was my second time to KU DÉ TA, my last visit here was actually 4 years ago.

The host of the event was none other than Sonia C from 987FM.

Everything about LG G Flex 2 is hot.

Hot Style

With a symphony of curves across the front, back, sides and top-to-bottom edges, it deliver a sleeker and more dynamic look.

The phone’s ergonomic design brings the microphone closer to the mouth, enabling better sound pickup. 

The curvature of the slimmer 5.5-inch screen enhances comfort for the eyes and grip. The curved display has a 700mm radius which delivers a truly immersive viewing experience from any angle. Resolution of the display has also been increased to 1080p Full HD, which makes every UI detail appear crisp and alive. 

Hot Performance

Featuring octa-core 64-bit capable CPUs optimized for Android 5, G Flex 2 is incredibly fast and efficient for multimedia and multi-tasking. The Snapdragon 810 also features support for faster, more efficient connectivity. 

Protected by DuraGuard glass, G Flex2’s cover is approximately 20 percent more durable, thanks to a special chemical treatment technology developed by LG. 

The unique “Self Healing” back cover from the G Flex carries over to the G Flex2. This feature keeps the phone looking new even through the nicks and light scratches from normal everyday use, has also been improved with significantly faster healing time. LG reduced the healing time from about three minutes to within just ten seconds at room temperature. 

Another innovative technology is the amazingly fast Laser Auto Focus camera, it enables the G Flex2 to capture the best moment — even in low light.

Hot Solutions

The G Flex 2 comes fully loaded with the best of LG’s unique software features optimized for its curved form factor: 

- Gesture Shot makes it easy to capture the perfect selfie with a simple hand gesture recognizable from up to 1.5 metres away. 

- Gesture View makes it easy to check the last shot immediately after taking a photo or selfie. 

- Glance View displays key information such as time, recent messages or missed calls with a downward swipe of the curved screen even while the display is off. 

- Fast Charge allows the embedded 3,000mAh battery in the G Flex2 — the only curved mobile battery in the world to be charged up to 50 percent in under 40 minutes.
