[Q] g pro or g2 ? - LG Optimus G Pro

Hey guys i'm confused between g pro n g2. The only thing i need is a better battery life.If i go with g pro i have an option to buy the extended battery from amazon but reviews suggest both the phone are awesome i personally feel lg will give more s/w update to g2 than g pro(s/w update is not much a prob as we have custom rom's )
what u guys thing g2 or g pro ?
Thanks for you help

A co worker of mine has the G2 and I have the G Pro,, the G2 is a very nice phone but I prefer the G Pro. Removable battery expandable memory. Love the G Pro hands down.

Agree with you.
No expandable memory and replacement battery are BIG NO to me.

Thats true expandable memory n battery is the biggest advantage with g pro
So I will go with g pro!
Will get it soon
hope to c u guys soon in the development section
Thanks

Buy LGOG2 boot loader unlock if Wu LG
The device is out since last automn, it's not even one year old...
My next one is not for the next 1 or 2 year easy!
And, as of now, there's no need to "upgrade", there's no real gaint to get, performance wyze, at stock speed. So when it starts to get "slow", I'll overclock a little, install CM rom, and stuff like that!
But, for now, the device is doing everything I ask it to do, and fast!

OG is still lightning fast and running smoothly on all the apps. I 'll most probably wait for the G3, the time when OG really outdated.

LG Optimus G Nexus 4 mod

Hey there I'm thinking on purchasing the LG Optimus G instead of Nexus 4 because of the 32GB vs the 16GB , But the Nexus 4 as faster updates and I love the stock Rom , I wanted to ask if is it possible because of the hardware similarity turn the LG Optimus G into a Nexus 4 like put the firmware or something , because the are just equal expect the software
Hope some Dev read this and give it a shot!
Thank your for your time !

Cause you will endup with a semi-functionnal phone and will probably break it trying to get back / will not get everything working correctly. If you really want a nexus 4 go with it.

I know the Cm10 rom but I had some on my Galaxy s2 and I didn't like them that much and when I "played" a little with a friends Nexus 4 I really liked the stock rom!
I purchased on Ebay and was lucky really !
On Uk ebay you can get the Nexus 4 for about 250£ with extras and in mint condition!
The LG Optimus G was pure luck for me!

You're either going to have to make a compromise with the 16 gigs of storage on the Nexus 4, or make a sacrifice on the stock experience and the latest OS and go for the Optimus G. For me, it was the low storage capacity of the Nexus 4 and the smaller screen size (thanks to the on-screen buttons) that settled it in favour of the Optimus G.

Anyone switching to a G2?

Any one switching from the G Pro to the G2 or something else? Or have you switched and wanted to come back?

I am tempted but I probably stay at with the LG G Pro because removable battery is nice to have. And also the removable memory. I know for some it isn't a big deal but it is a pain when the battery in a phone goes bad and you have to swap out the whole device rather then just the battery. Happened to me on 2 devices with non removable battery. So I told myself not to switch back to a non removable battery device. But the G2 is a very good device.

The ONLY thing that is keeping me from coming back is how much easier the G2 is to hold, But other than that I LOVE my G Pro.

OK that isn't a problem for me. I have big hands so G Pro is good to hold for me. But I understand.

The G2 is a sweet phone but I love the bigger screen of the G Pro. I already have a 5" s4 active and started using that as my main until we were blessed with all these new ROMs (thanks to our amazing devs! ) Now its hard to go back to screen size like that. For me at least. I really want the G Pad when it comes out though I miss having an actual tablet. My next phone will probably be a Note 3 though maybe a few weeks after launch. I love my little s4 so it makes me want the giant version lol.

I'm not sure why anybody would want to switch from a G Pro to a G2, or any of the upcoming flagship phones for that matter. The only real competitor to the G Pro is the Note 3, and unless you're made of money, the G Pro is a considerably better bang for the buck. The rest...do you seriously need that Snapdragon 800? That's about the only advantage they all have, and you're actually downgrading on the screen size. So many of them won't have removable batteries or SD card slots as well (Xperia Z1, Nexus 5, G2, Xiaomi MI3). I'm actually amazed LG took out the removable battery and SD slot from the G2, given the G Pro had both, and the G2 does not sport some kind of premium unibody design like the Optimus G/Nexus 4 had. The Xperia Z1 has a better camera by pixel count, but again do you really need that?
Of course if you want a physically smaller phone...than by all means, trade in. I feel set for a while myself, especially once development ramps up just a bit more.
Not for me!
I'm keeping my G Pro. I'm not gonna downgrade my screen size from 5.5" to 5.2".
In fact, G2 has only 5" of actual viewable screen due to the fcuking On-Screen Button on pages and in most apps!
That's a massive 0.5" in reduction.
...and, do you wanna play games with the fcuking On-Screen Button stays on the side likes this! That sucks!

Should i buy g pro?

Hi all, i'm planning to buy lg g pro in India (e988). Is it a good buy? Main con seems to be locked bootloader. (Currently using atrix2,which also has locked bootloader )Any other negative points?
Other option i was considering was nexus5 but it is costlier than g pro and seems to have poor battery and camera.
So, should i go for g pro?

This is one of the most underrated devices on the market.... You cannot go wrong with it in my opinion.. Dev support is only increasing.. example is we have a stable cm 10.2 now..4.4 is already up and running and very soon official cm 11 will be here

Not sure I understand the question. Aren't the Optimus G and G2 phones rather than tablets? Why would anyone swap the G Pad for a phone?

I still don't understand why you'd swap the G Pad for a G2. If you already have an Optimus G as well it makes even less sense.

What's your Question again?
If you have an Optimus G and a G Pad, than absolutely not don't switch! That way you get a decent phone and a great tsblet instead of just a great phone
