As you may already know, LG G2 is the flagship smartphone of LG Mobile. It’s the only Android phone on US Consumer Reports’ Top 10 Electronic Products of 2013 and has been hailed as “The Best Smartphone in the World” by Stuff Magazine.

What sets it apart from all the other smartphones in the market is its Rear Key Button, which is a unique innovation inspired by the human use of the index finger when using a smartphone. (You may check out this TVC to get an idea.)

Here’s the mechanics of the challenge:

2. Upload it on YouTube.
3. Video title should be “YugaTech – LG G2 Index Finger Challenge: Your own entry TITLE here ”
4. Video description should include “LG G2. Learning from You.” and this link to the LG G2 TV commercial http://bit.ly/1diSWIi

You may submit as many creative entries to increase your chances of winning.

Our criteria for judging:

Hi! Here’s my humble entry. :)
http://youtu.be/RdxyRbG7aNE

Kahit na cheap ang ginamit kong video camera sa sobrang labo (Nokia 5320). I made pa rin para ilabas ko yung idea ko.

Wag naman sanang okrayin pati yung video editing, eh sa 5320 Phone ko rin yan inedit eh. :)

May sakit ako sa puso. Hinay-hinay lang sa pag-comment. Please be careful with my heart :-)

hehe · 13 years ago

i will try to think for a creative idea,,,, using my index finger!!! hehe

mich · 13 years ago

I’m just wondering? Is the LG G2 really have one button? rear key? what I mean is… amazing :)

fdsf · 13 years ago

I hope the judges DO NOT base their decision on how ‘professionally made’ the video is. Lugi naman yung mga hindi masyadong marunong sa video editing.

gaspershut · 13 years ago

Actually sir/ma’am, the judges must use background check. I’m a Nurse and doesn’t have an IT background. Halos half day ko din ginawa yung videos ko na yan at sobrang hirap. Medyo d lang ako ngandahan sa comment mo sorry. Pero wala naman sa criteria a na bawal gumamit ng Video editing software. Sabi kasi creativity, at dun ko nakikita sarili ko sa creativity. And there are tons of way to do amazing videos the key is just “Creativity”

Justin · 13 years ago

Hmm…. I don’t think fdsf said na ‘bawal gumamit ng Video editing software’.

homer · 13 years ago

Video editing, you can not edit videos without using a Video Editing Software ar applications. A simple splicing or changing the format of a video uses a video editing program.

sdr · 13 years ago

nakita mo ng 70% will be based on creativity, natural hindi pipili ang mga judges ng hindi pinaghirapan na video. kahit na may background sa video editing yung sasali, kasalanan ba nila kung sanay silang mag-edit. alalahanin mo hindi pisong kendi ang prize.

myn · 13 years ago

This is really great! What a fantastic smartphone. I wanna grab one now :)

mayn · 13 years ago

70% will be based on creativity/ Grabe . dapat creative ka talaga. bawal puchu puchu :(
