It comes with a 13MP rear camera, and a 2MP front camera.

“The LG G Flex is the best representation yet of how a smartphone should be curved,” said Dr. Jong-seok Park, president and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “The LG G Flex with its distinctive design, innovative hardware and consumer-centric UX represents the most significant development in the smartphone space since smartphone became part of our regular vocabulary.”

The vertical curve on LG G Flex improves the sound compared to flat smartphones, according to LG the video experience is also best with IMX like experience and better viewing angles. It also bears the rear key which gives quick access to the volume rocker, power button, it came first with the LG G2 smartphone.
