I'm pretty much sold on it as long as it supports Google Wallet, which I am sure that it will. I
Of course AT&T would blow a great phone and give it a crap camera.
See the following CNET review:

I'm almost thinking about switching to Sprint, since I'm really having a hard time finding a phone I truly like. Good job to Sprint for keeping the BEASTLY 13mp camera.

You should, just hopefully you don't use too much data if you don't live in a LTE area. Their speeds are terrible! I personally don't have them, but I have some friends that do. It took around 10 minutes to download a 10 MB file.
Looking forward to getting this phone as iv been using optimus one for longest time and been very happy with its proformance

As a long time sprint user (also my parents and grandparents, uncles, etc) use sprint, I believe that is a device or location specific issue. On 3g I've downloaded files that size in under a minute. In a few seconds on wimax. I might upgrade to this from the classic Evo. Just got an upgrade two months ago.

There is no facepalm great enough to express my reaction to your post. Bigger isn't always better
EDIT: Link to camera comparison
I pre-ordered my yesterday , I have 14 days to return it if it doesn`t pan out, but from the specs and everything it should be awesome, I know there is a lot of people bashing it on here from the S3 guys, I had a S3, you know what, got rid of it because crappy reception, I flashed every file know, and it never fix it, so I off it for Sony Xperia Ion, its night and day difference I`m able to make a call.,

Yeah, I have an Optimus S, but seeing as I had to overclock it to make the performance even just acceptable and then having support mostly cut off for it makes me not want to go LG again. So it's the GSIII for me. And seeing as I don't play any games, I don't think I will have any issues with it.
Guys I have my G already and it's amazing. I work for a marketing company partnered with LG. Art release will be the 2nd and sprint will be the 11th. The phone is stupid fast. Great battery life and cool camera features

Nokia no way dead phone
I went to the store, I saw the one S, I was about to take it but turns out it only has 16GB and not SD slot so no go for ONE S.
I saw the ONE V, its nice and small, with SD card but cpu is 1 core only.
anyway, there wasn't much of a choice, xperia models are all old, no xperia T , thats it I couldn't find any other phone beside the iphone 5 crap =))
so i got the one V but I didn't un box it yet so I may return it if I found a better phone soon.
thanks guys for your help

AGREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE:good::good::good::good:
I tried the Note 2 and don't really like it. Everything about the phone is good but its size and build. I like the speed and special features together with huge battery; however, the size is way too big for me to handle. Sometime it becomes inconvenience for me. I decided to stay with my HOX International

I thought it was some sort of Paintballing Company or something, sorry im a 90s kid
Common haha! S3 is awesome. I sent my S3 to repair some stuff (read this: ClickMe LOL)
Then i bought a HOX, i really enjoyed the phone but htc made some limitations, that's why I preffer S3. Its a plastic made phone but its very resistent, I love to flash roms but unfortunatly I got a S-ON device.
This year I bought 5 phones: iPhone 4S, Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy Note 1rst gen, Galaxy S3 and now HOX.
About iPhone 4S:
It's a very nice phone but I have always had apple devices, all iphones and i wanted to try something new.
About Galaxy Nexus:
I don't know if it's only in Brazil, but i got an international one, and there was no Gorila Glass o.0. Camera is really bad. At least nexus is on top to receive new updates.
About Galaxy Note:
It's a HUGE phone lol. Now I started to think i'm unlucky lol. Most of G.Note came with a Bug that you can't do a full wipe coz it erases the efs partition and you turn your device into a brick.
About Galaxy S3:
One world? GOD.
It's the best phone I've ever had. It's fast, beautiful, awesome camera quality. It's "wow". You can be sure it will receive many updates since the "S" line is very famous. You can say it's "cheap plastic" but why do u want more? Are you going to play tennis with your phone?? LOL
About HOX:
Loved HTC sense. Too bad i got a S-ON device and _044 cid. I'm a "rom-flashing" fanatic. I love to try as many roms as i can in a day lol, with this limitation by htc forces me to use S3 as main. Battery also SUCKS BY ALOT.But i'm gettin HOX+ as soon as its avaliable.Too bad I live in brazil and need to buy this phone in Paraguai lol its gonna take 10000000 years.
Sorry for my english typos lol
Hope this help you

Agreed.. ps. Only thing i don't like about Note 2 is the battery, thing doesn't die even how hard i try! 9hrs screen on time with WiFi on, all the syncs on and heavy use browsing xda and internet. How you can Kill the battery in 1 day? Impossible.

An interesting trade

Ok, I need a couple of opinions on what to do ... Just an hour ago I've recieved an intruiging offer ... To trade my GNexus for a LG Optimus G ... My GNexus is really in a mint condition, from the day I bought it it had an SGP Case + screen protectors, so no visible scratches on it ... And today a guy offers me a brand new, unopened Optimus G in trade for my GNexus ( which, by the way, has a decent amount of accessories - extended battery - regular battery - 2 back covers - 5 screen protectors - 2 SGP Cases ) + 120 $ ... I mean, I have to pay additional 120 $, not the other guy I wasn't really planning to buy another phone ( YET ) ... Atleast for another 10 - 12 months ... But he made such a good offer I don't really have much time to play with my GNexus lately, since I got a new job ... So what'cha think folks? Trade or not?
Check out the optimus forum and get a feel for the community and check the q&a section for common problems and general section to see how complicated it is to root and what not.

As I said, don't have much free time lately ... So don't know IF I will root it at all ... Maybe a bit later, wanted to hear thoughts of the GNexus community first
this is a pretty good deal. its a much more powerful phone, it Should have Jellybean Fairly soon, build quality is really nice, and screen is amazing. the UI is a little "meh" but the bad part (launcher) can be covered up fairly easily. but you just have to ask yourself what is more important to you....quick updates with new features about 2 times a year, or powerful hardware that will probably not get past 4.1.1

I was rather waiting on a new Nexus device, or perhaps for the Phone X ... So I would switch my phone anyway in about a year or so ... And what's crossing my mind is the fact that I'd probably sell Optimus G for more cash then I would sell the GNexus in a period of 1 year ...
So you have time to read our comments but not to take less than a minute to look in the Optimus G section? Seems legit.

Actually I did read about the Optimus G, not really much of a dev support there, no need to flame right away mate ...
What I'm looking here, are opinions weather some1 else would accept the same trade ... If yes, why - if not, why again?
there is a reason why he makes such a offer.
im coming from a lg device and would not take that bait

i think the older devices were pretty poor. but i really haven't heard anything bad about the Optimus G. the build quality, and screen are great.....the OS is "Meh" but how bad can ICS or JB really be on a device with a quad core processor and 2GB ram? probably not that bad.

Am I missing something...

I just got a T210r as a gift. I was excited to get it. Once I cracked the box open and got it charged, accounts setup on it (Google and IMAP for work) I gave it a reboot and started trying to use it. However, this thing is so laggy and slow it is unreal. I have a $80 Coby that out performs this thing.
Am I missing something or is this thing just that bogged down from Touch Wiz? Is the only way to fix is root and rom it? Wishing there was some stable ASOP love for this but that doesn't seem to be an option.
What are folks doing to get this to be a usable tablet?
Thanks in advance for info!

If I had paid for it, I would be taking it back for sure. Thankfully I have someone that wants a e-reader that they can check their email with and another buddy who has a Dell Venue 8 Pro. So I am selling the Sammy for the Dell. Thankfully I still have my Asus TF101 tab!

Yeah, I love my Tf101. I got the 32GB with the dock and all when I got mine. Was lucky and my work bought it for me. So I rock that dude out as my daily driver tab. Got the Sammy Tab 3 for free when I moved ISP's.
Been playing with the Venue 8 Pro this weekend and I think I am gonna pull the trigger on this thing. Super fast, smooth, accurate touch screen. Nice because it is a full version of Windows. Makes life at work much easier for sure!

If you're still on the fence about a Note 4, I would hold out just a bit longer...

IMO, it would be worth the wait to see if we get this.
http://www.phonearena.com/news/New-...sung-Galaxy-Note-4-may-be-coming-soon_id63730
From what I have been seeing, it will be regional in South Korea. Interesting if it should turn up here but would it really matter? The current specs handle just about anything you can throw at it. Same chassis with minimal day to day operational improvement just doesn't seem worth the wait. The note 5 would within 6 months of this coming out.

I guess IF we get it and it's close to or the same price as the Note 4 now, why not? If some are still waiting to see if AT&T/Verizon variants get root, it wouldn't hurt.
playing the "let's wait because something marginally better MIGHT be coming a few months from now" just doesn't work for me any longer. Doing this you are always waiting because something marginally better is always just a few months away...
pre-ordered my Note 4 and got it on release day... couldn't be happier... Also I could honestly care less if we get root on this thing or not at this point...
this isn't going to be released here.. s6 will be the first US bound samsung 810 phone.
Did this with the lg g3 and it never came to the US.

Too many complaints, too many wishes, too many spoiled first world people who cannot be made happy by anything.
This is a great phone. Nothing is perfect, because we are all different people who want different things. But as of November 2014, this thing rocks. Sure I am certain that in a couple of years we will look back and wonder how it was ever possible we lived with such a crippled device... but its not a couple of years from now, its today, and today I couldn't be happier. Just sayin'
So far there's no snapdragon octa phone i know of that supports US LTE.. It's apparently a hardware limitation but maybe the s6

A bunch of people did this with the S5 too and all they got was the Alpha which was not only not what they were expecting, but even a step down from the S5.
Just get the phone that you like today and don't worry about tomorrow as it's not guaranteed anyway.

Agree with this some what. But I would wait for a phone if it's a different class. Like I waited for LG g2 when I had my gs3.
But with likely chances of the 810 Note 4 showing up in US is probably unlikely. Get the note 4 now. I'm very happy with mine. And compared to the LG g3 it's very snappy and every all that I them row at it just flies.

Me too. My problem is that i have stoped following most note 4 forums. They tend to involve posts like "the s pen is just too long to be useful.. this phone sucks" or other posts like it, nit picking a damn good phone, and then concluding through the nit picking that the phone sucks. The 805 is a darn good processor. Waiting for the 810, or worse complaininh that we got ripped off because its only been a month an now the 810 is availible is just spoiled whinning.
Trust me, i have as many or more first world problems as the next guy. (Skype just wont consistently notify me of my new messages. Driving me down right crazy)

i will agree with ya on that. i was using my iphone 3g (its my ipod so it dont see much use) but the camera, and the phone it's self was really slow and lacked vs to what we are used to today. (i had a 3gs as my first iphone best at the time (had a curve but it wasnt worth keeping the trac ball kept on going out.) not sure how long i had that for? maybe 2 years
havent had a chance to run the note 4, or any other new phone next to my s4, anyway my 2yr contract is up next month, (i buy a new one around that time.)

Come on man, you are spoiled. You have a galaxy note 4, food to eat, water to drink, electric, medical care, internet, money, meanwhile kids in Africa are walking 12 miles through the bush to get buckets of brown drinking water from a creek that is covered with malaria infested mosquitos for their family to drink, that they will have to carry 12 miles back home with the bucket on their head full of the brown water. Get life man. Whatever you do to "work your ass off" is nothing compared to that. You have a galaxy note 4 lol, you're spoiled by the fact that you are able to even have it. Man people really do not see the big picture these days. Go to the third world and ask em what a phone is, I bet they won't even know or even care for that matter, cause they are more worried about getting one bite of food and hoping they do not get malaria. Stupid!
