So LG released a white-gold G4 five days ago as a "Korean exclusive". Not for long though. Here in Singapore it was released on Saturday as a dual-SIM variant.

I bought it. (Btw, the back is has a white non-patterned matte finish.) There was a really good deal on it. For the same price as the leather G4 (on contract), you got the phone, battery charging kit, 128GB microSD card (Class 10 UHS-1) and two leather backs (pink and blue). I snapped on the blue leather back and here are some pics.

The "gold" sides look like gold as long as you're in good lighting. If not, it looks just like the sides of the regular G4. I like the matte feeling of the back, but the white has made me a little scared that it would get dirty easily.

They included 2 leather backs (pink + blue) -- which are NOT the official LG leather backs. They are VOIA brand. However, on the box of these leather cases, they call it "Original accessory licensed by LG". Design is almost exactly the same as the LG one, except there is no stitching and there is some metallic plastic at the sides (so the leather doesn't go until the very edge of the back -- see the photos). But texture of leather is exactly the same as the original LG one. I think this design will actually prevent the leather from peeling as easily as the original.

Besides that, they also gave a free 128GB microSD card (Class 10 SDXC, also Voia brand) and microSD adapter, 2 plastic screen protectors, and battery charging kit, which I appreciate.
