LG G4 Gaming Review with Indian Dual Sim Variant

The Drift Experience: Smooth Performance and Temperatures

As we resume trying the drift, I'm pleased to report that the performance is very smooth and I'm not noticing any lagginess whatsoever. This is great news, especially considering the processor used on this device. It's based on the Snapdragon 808 chip set, which is a six-core processor. While it may not be as powerful as the Snapdragon 810, it's handling these games without any issues.

Regarding the temperatures, I'm not noticing any heat at all during this gaming session. As we can see, the screen temperature is around 42°C, and the back of the device is slightly warm but not hot, with a reading of 43°C on the top and 43.6°C on the bottom. This is great news, especially considering the leather back design that helps to dissipate heat.

After 15 odd minutes of gaming, I noticed that some devices start heating up, but thanks to the leather back, this device was touching around 43°C. It wasn't feeling hot in terms of touch response, and I haven't noticed any frame drops or lagginess. The performance is still very smooth, and I'd say it's similar to what you would expect from a Tokyo-level gaming experience.

To test the device further, I decided to play another heavy game and see how it handles. As we can see, the device is handling this game without any issues and without any lagginess or throttling. The performance is still very good, and I'd say it's one of the smoothest experiences I've had on a device with this processor.

However, as the gaming session continued, I noticed that the back of the device, particularly where the volume buttons are located, was getting slightly hotter. As we can see in the temperature readings, the screen is touching around 46°C, while the back is touching around 44-45°C. This is still within a safe temperature range, but it's worth noting.

To further test the device's performance and temperatures, I decided to play another heavy game, Nova 3. As we can see, the device is handling this game without any issues or lagginess. However, the temperature readings are more concerning, with the screen touching around 48°C and the back touching around 50-51°C.

In conclusion, while the device is handling heavy gaming sessions without any major issues, it's not immune to heat. With extended gaming, even the Snapdragon 808 processor can get on the hotter side. However, this is still a minor concern, especially considering the device's overall performance and smoothness during normal usage. The full review of this device will be posted soon, so stay tuned for more information.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhi there this is ranit and I have the LG G4 and in this video we'll be doing the gaming review and this is the dual SIM variant that is officially sold in India and let's start gaming with some casual games like Dead Trigger then we'll move on to heavier games and we'll also test the temperatures as you can see uh right now I'm in AC room there and the ambient temperatures is around 26° C we'll uh test the temperature after gaming so this is dead trigger let's roll and the thing that I like is the speaker though it has just a mono speaker the speaker is uh actually very loud and clear let me actually lower the speaker volume it's pretty loud one notch lower also the screen quality is really nice and as you can see it's handling this uh without any issues very smooth game play and some people were asking me about the touch response as you can see the touch response in gaming is very good but I noticed minor keyboard lag uh U at times I would say it's lag but uh I would have expected uh the keyboard to be a little bit more responsive when you type fast that's what I have noticed that was nasty so as you can see it's running this uh Dead Trigger without any issues uh let's now move to some heavier games and let's see how it handles so let's get out of this one one thing that I've noticed is that I also tried to run this model Combat X but the game is crashing always there is one setting if you go to the settings and if you go to the battery options uh let me just look at that here this game Optimizer is enabled and what it does is it actually scales the game to 1080p instead of the Quad HD but even when I disabled this I thought that might be causing the issue still this model combat SX is actually just crashing so I'm not sure why it's doing that but let's move to another game so this is Riptide gp2 and we just uh move to steer along the Boost and as you can see it's handling it very well again the sound output uh is really nice it's actually very loud and clear and as you can see it's running this reptide gp2 very well also the screen quality is excellent the Quad HD quantum display is really nice the colors look uh pchy and the screen is actually pretty bright I'm not on the maximum brightness I'm just at 45% brightness if I would have kept it on high brightness it would have been very bright but as you can see even with around 42% brightness it's very good even in outdoor sunlight when you keep it on auto setting the brightness uh the screen quality is really nice and it's easily legible in even direct sunlight so as you can see it's running this one very well without any issues again it's not a very heavy game uh but let's just move out of this one also now let me just swipe that away also so let's just clear everything and now let's uh run asphal 8 so this is asphal 8 let me actually show you the graphics settings and as you can see I'm at the highest Graphics setting and I'm using the onscreen stering so let's play a few levels and see how it behaves so this is asphal 8 and this is the Iceland level and I'm using the on screen steering let me just pause for a second let me increase the brightness a little bit as you can see I'm just on 43% brightness let's keep it at 55 now and let's resume trying the drift very smooth and uh I'm not noticing any lagginess whatsoever and regarding the processor used on this uh it's based on the Snapdragon 808 chip Set uh which is a six score chip and the GPU is the adreno 418 so technically speaking it's not as powerful as the Snapdragon 810 but as you can see it's handling uh these games without any issues and definitely I would say it's not heating up that much as compared to the Snapdragon 810 chipset let's continue gaming and we'll check the temperatures also and it's been just around 7 OD minutes since we were gaming since we started this gaming sessions so let's look at the temperatures also I don't noce any heat as of now but let's look at the temperatures as you can see it's around the 42° C Mark here on the screen and here on the back again it's around the 43 it's res ring it's slightly warm but not that hot 43.6 it's resisting but let's continue generally some of these is after 15 odd minutes of gaming they start heating up uh but thanks to that leather back though it was touching around 43° C it was not feeling that hot in terms of touch response really nice have and uh I haven't noticed any frame drops still now very smooth so this is the Tokyo level we'll play this for a minute or two then move to another heavy game and we are at the highest Graphics uh setting still very responsive touch response is still excellent and I can feel now the back is a little bit warm it's feeling a bit warm not very hot but uh a bit warm we'll look at the temperatures a bit later but still in terms of game play it's playing it very well I would say so as you can see it is handling this game without any issues in fact it's playing it really well so it's playing it really well uh do not notice any lagginess but now uh the back particularly where the volume buttons are located uh it was getting a little bit on the hotter side Let's uh look at the temperatures now if I don't crash yes uh and it's been about 12 odd minutes since we were gaming and now definitely as you can see it's touching around on the 46° C Mark 45 46 here on the screen let's look at the back uh here again uh near if you touch the camera it's about 44° C uh 44 to 44.5 yeah underneath this uh LED flash around 45 here uh as you can see here I was telling it's getting a bit toastier uh it's around the 46 celus 46 to 47° C Mark so definitely the back here it's getting a little bit on the harder side so let's get out but the good thing is that in terms of game play we did not notice any throttling so it's handling the game play fine let's also try Nova 3 which is sort of a heavy game and let's see how it handles so this is Nova 3 and this is a pretty heavy game and I've noticed this game to stress many devices so let's see how it handles this one let's see if uh it's not free follow my so as you can see it's handling this one without any issues and I'm not noticing any lagginess matter so for gaming it's uh actually performing very well uh but this level is done so let's quickly look at the temperatures again and as you can see the screen is getting pretty toasty around 48° C almost touched 49 here at the top here it is really hot this area around 40 lower 47 to 48° I would say let's look at the back and here again as you can see it's touching about the 50° 51° C Mark so yes even the Snapdragon 808 is exhibiting uh quite a bit of heating uh when we stress but with my regular usage when I using uh was using it normally it was not getting that hot so definitely with extended gaming it can get a bit on the hotter side uh that we have noticed but the good thing is that it could handle any game we threw at it the most of the heavy games that we threw on it without any issues and without any lagginess or throttling but again it couldn't run this particular game that was model comback so even for gaming it's actually pretty good considering the fact that it has 32 gigs of internal storage and a Micro SD card slot but yes with extended gaming and with heavy gaming even the LG G4 can get on the hotter side I'll also be posting the full in-depth review for this device very soon so stay tuned to my channel thanks for watching this is ran and I hope to see you in my next videohi there this is ranit and I
