Testing Out the Sprint LG G4 #SprintMom #IC

I participated in an Ambassador Program on behalf of Influence Central for Sprint. I received a Sprint device to facilitate my review as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation.

For the past few weeks I have been using the New Sprint LG G4 and I’m impressed. It is the next generation G series smartphone from LG that has a lot of great technology packed into it.

With two cameras, it takes selfie taking tot he next level which is a rage that I don’t see going away anytime soon. It is the first smartphone from Sprint with a total of 24 megapixels (16MP rear-facing camera and 8 MP front-facing camera) – which translates to awesome photos.

Here are some pictures I took with it:

Here is my favorite picture, I took it from my back deck:

Now here is another picture I zoomed in on the tree from the same spot – Amazing detail!

The rest of the features are pretty standard but for the value of the phone it really is a great deal. I love that it runs off the Android operating system which I have become used to and that it has 32GB of memory on it – perfect since I tend to take lots of pictures with my smartphone. The talk time is 23 hours and I will say if I am using this phone heavy throughout the day I can get it to last a whole day, if I am using it here and there then I can get it to last a few days.

Sprint has also launched the Thumb Wars Campaign. The Sprint Drive First App can help prevent a young person from using their phone while on the road. It is a FREE app that sends calls to voicemail and silences email and text alerts when a vehicle reaches 10mph.  It can even track miles driven as well as lock or enable certain apps. Texting while driving is something that honestly freaks me out. I know that I am a good driver and refrain from using my cell phone but I fear others who do use their phones while driving. It’s not just young people either but people of all ages. Did you know that when texting, a driver spends approximately 10% of their driving time outside of their lane? Which leads to texting drivers being 23 times more likely to get involved in a crash.  40% of American teens still admit to texting and driving. The Sprint Thumb Wars campaign encourages young people to use the power of their thumbs in a fun and engaging way to prevent their friends from texting and driving.

How It Works:

Young people sign up at ThumbWars.org and receive two pairs of yellow anti-texting thumb socks.

Then, they pick a friend or loved one they know who texts and drives and share the socks with them in a surprising way.

They snap a pic of themselves and their friend wearing the thumb socks and send it back to DoSomething.org

Young people can also share important texting-and-driving stats (available on ThumbWars.org) to educate their friends.

Not sure about the cost of getting a new phone? LG is super affordable with Sprint’s new Lease program. It is just $18 per month for 24 months and if you are using the Sprint Family Share Pack Plan, a family of four can share 20GB of data with unlimited talk/text for only $100 a month! That is an awesome deal!

  • this sounds like an awesome phone great pictures and with 2 cameras that to me is cool but even cooler than that is the safe teen driver
