There is some assurance to the robustness of the build, even if it’s only a placebo. Yes, there’s still a lot of plastic, but even the removable back plate has a good amount of stiffness to it. Compared to other more budget-oriented phones, though, the LG G4 Vigor easily holds its own. No one should or will put this phone on the same tier as something like the Galaxy Note 5. You can remove the back plate to get at the SIM and microSD slots, but you can’t take out the battery. Key highlights include the 1.5GHz Octa-Core processor, 1.5GB of RAM, Android 5.1 Lollipop, a 5.2-inch 1920 x 1080 full HD IPS display, 8GB internal storage, LTE (up to 150Mbps), 8MP camera, and 2300mAh non-removable battery. From what I can gather, the G4 Vigor is fundamentally identical to the G4 Beat sold in some other markets. Of course, being positioned as more of a budget-oriented device, the LG G4 Vigor also has to skimp on some of the features. The back looks more like the G3, for starters, based on the layout and the lack of leather. The funny thing is (if you can call it funny) is that this phone realistically borrows more of its inspiration from last year’s G3 rather than this year’s G4. ![]() A More Affordable LG G4 AlternativeĪs its name quite clearly indicates, the LG G4 Vigor borrows much of its inspiration from the real LG G4, except at a much more affordable price point. ![]() It’s likely not a phone that’s on the radar for most people, but the LG G4 Vigor might find its way into your digital life too, especially considering that you can get it for free on contract. While it is certainly true that the newest and shiniest flagships will always have the best features and the fanciest designs, those of us with thinner wallets can get something pretty decent too. In case you haven’t noticed, more affordable smartphones aren’t complete and utter garbage anymore.
