The LG X Power Review

In the mid-range segment of the smartphone market you really have two types of products. The first are smartphones like the Moto G, which try to provide a good all-around experience. They aren't really exceptional in any respect, but the hope is that providing a decent experience in every respect will lead to a good overall user experience. The second type of device is one that really sells itself on a single feature. Whether it be a great camera, or a great display, the phone's identity is based on this one aspect. That doesn't necessarily mean that the other aspects of the phone are bad, but there may not be the same balance as there is with a good all-around performer.

The smartphone I'm reviewing today falls into that second camp. It's the LG X Power, a device that really sells itself on being a smartphone that will last far longer than any other. The LG X Power is just one device in LG's line of smartphones that all focus on being the best at a single thing, with some other devices in the line being named the LG X Style, LG X Mach, LG X Max, and LG X Screen. The LG X Power is the first device I've ever reviewed that really ties itself to a single feature, so read on for the full AnandTech review.
