If that's your style then i would say go for it. I personally didn't like it. Lagged majorly and was oversized. I have big hands and this thing was abnormally huge to grip and use as a phone.
I heard its coming to sprint and Verizon coined the "journal" but its all rumors for now. Check it out yourself, only way to get a true perspective

I've read that if you can palm a beach ball, it won't be too awkward. Also saw news of it coming to CDMA as journal, but not confirmed.

I Phone 3.5
I left Verizon and iPhone for this marvelous phone. Also there was a big progress from iPhone 3 to 4, compared to that, 4S seems like regressed version , so I would call it I phone 3.5 and when the I Phone 5 comes I am not getting that either, I made a mistake of going from Android to iPhone...never again.
Why would anyone switch from this to an iPhone?...

No way. Never had an iphone and probably never will. Trying to talk my wife out if it though.

Nope, this phone is perfect for me, I have no desire for anything different... esp the iPhone.
IPhone isn't even a remote possibility based on the size of the screen alone. Itunes is another dealbreaker. Having to jailbreak it just to do half the things I can do on Android without rooting pushes the iPhone option into the furthest reaches of the galaxy.
I'd rather be run over by two chimpanzees in a hot rod than touch an iPhone again.

Nope. My Olivia Wilde wallpaper will probably look like trash on an iPhone.
Plus, I just found out that auto brightness is stupid and wastes a lot of battery...And I also found out that 50% brightness is all you need to be able to see the screen outside.
Nope..
I just don't like the way Apple doing business. No i-anything in my household.
Android already has app drawer... No need for an iphone.
I would if it wasn't so locked down
Hate them but their stuff lasts

Hold off til the new nexus comes out. After getting the nexus 7 i will never buy a non nexus device ever again.
$2? I say go for it. Its about the same quality of phone but the nexus will be supported software wise.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
If you have strong 4G LTE where you are, I'd say go for it. If not, and your 4G Wimax is good, stay with the E4GT.
I'm in Dallas and bought a used Sprint Nexus when LTE first hit here. It was so weak and sporadic that my Wimax was better, so I came back to my trusty E4GT.
Yes I would say it comes down to LTE. As far as the phone I prefer my s2 compared to my wife's G Nexus.
She uses my camera more than she uses her phone.

This is not necessarily true.
Is there a way everyone can get this deal or did you work it out with an employee you know or something? And would I be able to do it if I'm nowhere near an upgrade?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Id get it over the Epic because of LTE & Jellybean alone. BUT, I wouldnt want to use the Nexus for two years, at this point. So id pass!
I had to work it out with an employee, this is after all the rebates and trade in and stuff

The deal is with 2 more years?

Anyone going from the SGS II to the iPhone 5?

Just posting a question as I want to know and hear if anyone is even contemplating on making a switch? I'm no iPhone fanboy and think the Samsung Galaxy S 3 surpasses the iPhone 5 on many levels. :good:
Edit: The title states Samsung Galaxy S II but I meant III
I am but i will keep my sg3 as well as my one x.

Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I won't be switching to the iPhone 5 because I love T-Mobile, I love tinkering with Android, and because I love my SIII.
However, everyone keeps going on about how it looks the same as the 4s and I just can't agree with this. Yes, the front looks the same (just longer) but they really have updated the features that I hated about the 4/4s. For example, I thought it was ridiculous that they made the back of the 4 and 4s glass. It looked lame and was just one more piece to easily break. I also didn't like the silver bezel (not a fan of it on the SIII either).
Now that the bezel is black and the back of the phone is no longer glass, I am actually a fan of it. I especially like that it is a bit thinner than the 4/4s and skinnier than the SIII.
If I was a big iTunes user, needed my phone to seamlessly work with my Macbook Pro (Android sucks at this), and enjoyed the simplicity of IOS I would probably get it. But I'm definitely sticking with Android. The SIII is the most solid phone I've ever owned.
Apple says the gs3 basically is an iPhoneso I got the best iPhone already

True that the SGS 3 might be like the iPhone 5, but I would take the SGS 3 over the 5 any day. The only nice thing I like about the 5 is the aluminum body and how solid it feels (if its anything like the 4). Other than that, they can have it

Why would you want to downgrade phones? Isn't the whole point of getting a NEW phone to UPgrade? iPhone 4SXL is lame...

Traded Note 2 for Sprint LGOG

All I can say is wow. The display is beautiful just amazingly clear and sharp. The S4 Pro Krait is just a work horse. In the last month I did a few trades. S3, Evo lte, iphone 5 and lastly the Note 2. I found a winner and the phone feels great in the hands. Build quality is top notch. Looking forward to jellybean.

i traded in my photon for the G. absolutely loving this thing so far!
Omg note 2 is worth so much more than lgog I hope you got money on top of that trade.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
Ya at first I thought amoled screens were the be all, end all. As soon as I saw LGOG I was like wow. Everything is so crisp and colors were natural. Did a lil research on the screen and it turns out that it's 100% RGB accurate. My laptop has IPS and its only 60%ish.

I love this phone. Even bone stock it kicks other phones in the nuts! Rooted or not. Hands down best Android I've owned so far.

As much as I love my LGOG I still think my Note 2 is a far superior phone no matter which way you slice it.
Not to mention the LGOG is very unpopular and people are pretty much giving them away on eBay for under 300 bucks so like someone already mentioned, I hope you got some cash in return for your Note.

Not really sure about that. It's running an outdated chipset, but the only thing going for it is that massive battery.

Outdated? I still get quantum scores equal and sometimes better then the OG. I agree the Qualcomm processor is better then the Tegra 3 but a phone is more than just its chip.
My LG suffers from weak 4g signal. Wifi connection doesn't seem as smooth as with my Note 2. An example is web pages don't load as fast as my Note 2. Lets not even discuss the camera and video playback.
You want to talk about software features? I think not. S-pen? Let me stop there.
LG, nice screen nice chipset. I give it that.

Ok so LG got a nice screen, chipset, but it ain't made of cheap piece of plastic. Doesn't feel premium to me and forget about one handed txting!

What ever chip it has weather its old or new, the thing performs great. I could show you some quantum scores if you want.
Like I said the lg optimus G has a great chip I won't argue that. But unfortunately a great chip doesn't help with a lot of the other Corky stuff my LG does.
They will get it right with the LG Optimus G pro

The note 2 is cool and all and popular but I didn't want a phablet anymore. It was huge and just wanted to get rid of it ASAP even swap I didn't care. Hardware wise the lgog is king of android IMO. Just think of the performance with JB. LG did great with this phone and I'm very pleased I just love the fit in the hands. I'm sure we will see some bug fixes the phone has only been out a minute. BTW the s3 feels fragile in the hand maybe because of the plastics.

I look at it the opposite as you. I feel like Samsung will get it right with the Note 3. The screen is blurry and blue, its made of crap materials, it has an obsolete processor, hugh bezel and a stupid hardware button.

That's all you could really say. I don't think anyone hear, said anything bad about the phones chip.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Premium HD app
Not sure why you are even comparing the G to the Note 2. The Note 2 is in the Phaglet category and the G is in the Phone category. But, if you do want to compare... the G has better build quality, premium materials, better screen(true rgb and higher pixel count), better processors, better(not bigger or removable) battery and better one handed use. That's a lot of "betters".

I believe you meant" here". And the screenie was an indirect way to say "I'm satisfied with my LGOG, no complaints here." I have nothing negative to say as they're both fine devices in their respective classes.

This Phone...

OMG. Just got it in today, havnt put it down for a second. This is rediculously better than the last phone i used and i am now a proud samsung supporter. Have already tested out 3 roms, sad to see no good themes for the white phone around But, regardless
