Morning conversation with the hubby:
Mommy Pehpot: waah I super duper love my phone (saying this while busy editing photos on my new phone).. Thank you so much Daddy!!!
Hubby: oo nga eh, hindi mo na nga ako pinapansin..puro na lang phone mo..
Mommy Pehpot: Hindi naman no (gave him a quick kiss then back to my phone)
Eh how can you not love LG G2? It has everything that I need and a lot of bonus!
Some of you may not know, but my primary concern when buying a mobile phone is the camera (and of course the processor)..I can’t live with anything less than quad core. I am not that techy with specs, I just don’t like waiting 🙂
Actually, it took me a while before buying another smart phone. My HTC died on me last year (December) and it’s only a year old.. haays nakaka trauma lang..I was smart phone less for 2 months. It’s hard to decide which phone to get.. ang mahal kaya ng smart phone, tapos masisira lang agad 🙁 I was looking for a product that’s worth my money..I was tempted to buy a cheaper phone, but the hubby said no.. let’s go for quality smart phone even we have to shell a few more.. OK FINE! (sya naman gagastos eh)
He’s using Samsung Note 3 at parang gusto ko na rin sya.. but it’s too big for me.. the size and the price hahaha
A few readings on what’s the best camera phone and I decided I’d go with LG G2 (best camera phone list includes iPhone 5S, Nokia Lumia 1020 , Samsung Galaxy Note 3, Sony Xperia Z1s, HTC One and of course LG G2). Out of all the brands mentioned, LG stands out the most, I want to try LG this time.
I won’t dwell much on the technical aspect of LG G2, I will just focus on the things I like about this phone:
The size and weight is perfect for me, not too big and not too small.
The camera is LOVE!!!
It has 12 modes:
and camera settings:
But what I like most is the editing software that comes with the camera..I can do so much with it!!
My very own photo editor! You can also tune selective areas on the photo 🙂
It also comes with different looks:
And a software to retrofy your photos, called Retrolux. You can add frames using the Frames effect
Aside from that, there’s also Vintage effects, Drama effects, Black and White, HDR, Center Focus and Frames. All these effects comes with different styles. Ayayay! I can spend the day just exploring this area.
One reason why I almost said no to LG G2 is the rear keys. It is located at the back, unlike usual phones where the rear keys are placed on the side. The keys include the home button and the volume, but since you can activate (and lock) the phone with a double tap and that almost all software (and games) has a screen volume control, I didn’t mind the peculiarity of LG G2.
At first, I had a hard time with the rear keys but as soon as I get used to it, I realized how functional it can be. I have more control with the home button being on the back.
The only thing that I don’t like with LG G2 is the screen capture, you need to press the home button and the decrease volume key together… and I do a lot of screen capturing..it’s just a minor thing though, not enough to make me love this phone less hihi
Oh by the way, Main camera is 13 megapixels with LED flash and F2.4 aperture. The front camera is 2.1 MP (time for selfies! hahaha)
Camcorder is 1920×1080 (1080p HD) with Optical image stabilization.
Other things I liked about my new phone:
- Battery does not drain easily (Battery saver is a real saver!)
- Wifi reception is strong
- Less hot (compare to my old HTC which is a quad core too)
Check out LG website to know where to buy LG G2 aka LOVE 🙂

March 25, 2014 at 2:04 pmI wonder how much does LG G2 phone cost? I also don’t buy expensive phones. I just need phone to surf internet while on bed plus a good camera resolution.
Mommy Pehpot says
March 26, 2014 at 8:00 ama bit high end but still cheaper than Samsung Note 3 🙂

Serene Shikukeza says
March 25, 2014 at 5:52 pmI am on the look also of a new phone because Samsung really sucks already. After shelling out that much of a buck ambilis nila masira nga. 🙁
I remembered my cousin-in-law recommended this to me and told me that this is the new flagship phone of LG. Finally, you have a new phone! Congrats! 🙂
(Hhhmm, makahirit na din nga!) Hahaha
Mommy Pehpot says

Cel Fajardo says
March 27, 2014 at 6:59 pmLooks like the specs are great and important is you can take pictures especially when with your kids you can capture the moment..
mommynuts says
March 27, 2014 at 9:17 pmI would consider a phone with good camera too so it wouldn’t be difficult to bring it on should I get too tired of bringing SLR. The specifications say it all, enough to buy this one especially with WIFI strong reception.
Jen Gangan says
March 28, 2014 at 5:22 amI want! Great features—-My sister had an LG Phone before, ang ganda talaga ng pictures lalo na kung captured during daytime and outdoors.
Roch says
March 28, 2014 at 1:09 pmOh yeah the camera pictures look crisp and really good!
arjayssa reyes says

Winnie Aurelio says
March 30, 2014 at 9:22 amI agree. I was able to persuade my hubby to buy a G2 instead of an Iphone. I love this phone and when he finally started using it, well let us just say, that he spent less time with me and more on his phone checking out its perks…hahaha.
Mommy Pehpot says
March 30, 2014 at 10:14 amhahaha cheers to us LG G2 users!
Trinket bulseco says
March 30, 2014 at 2:38 pmI’m no techie, I can survive with a basic phone. But with the trends of the time…kailangan sumabay! Baka daig pa Ako in Inday as phone! Would you say this is value-for-money purchase?
Mommy Pehpot says
