I'm about to buy an LG G3 for 350 euros. (16 Gb, black)
I don't want to buy another mobile phone within at least 2-3 years as I'm starting high studies and I won't have much to spend then, but I really need a mobile that can handle everything and can last a lot.
Do you think it's worth it or is there another mobile coming soon that's better? Is it going to be supported by the community for a long time?

One can always wait for the next great product.
If you like the features then get the phone. It has gotten good reviews and has a good reputation here.
Go for it. This phone should last you the amount of time you want it to without it feeling outdated by the 1 year mark. Hard to say what will be our in 3 years but I plan to keep mine for to better part of 3 years.
I'd wait and see if there's gonna be a new nexus phone with L or go for the N5. This phone lags sometimes, has pretty low development activity (yeah, I know the reason, no complaint but a fact). After my nexus 4, I should've gone with the N5. The G3 is an okay phone in my opinion and looks sexy but the wow factor is missing for me...
The phone is great ..... but its really what you want your phone for and whether it fits those particular needs, I'm afraid there is no absolute answer, its about your needs and whether this phone fits them or another is more suitable.
I would advise research and checking it out and the competition, sorry no easy answers.

I'll try to tell you my history, from a person that doesn't change their phone every 3 months, or.. in a better way, a xda-user exception.
Got the Gnexus almost on the end of its lifespan (4 months before Nexus 4 release). It lasted 2 years when I gladly changed it to LG G3.
I saw a lot of reviews to after choose LG G3. What you will see outside is questions about the battery life due to the "unnecessary" QuadHD display.
Having a Gnex for 2 years is undoubtedly a nice school for battery life and screen on time use...
I really don't care about that after having that phone for 2 years.. and in every aspect besides battery life, LG G3 wins (for me).
So, tl:dr, buy it without doubt, grab a spare battery if you care so much. The design and the display of LG G3 destroy every other phone released till today.

Well, yeah, if you can't wait, go into a shop and try it, play around with it and decide how it feels for you. At end it's gonna be u using it I'm not happy with it but I'm okay with it personally. Only reason I got it is that I broke my nexus 4 and got a good deal on it from my SP. Otherwise I was thinking about ordering a nexus 5. Had it in my hand, used it before, I just simply love nexus phones for aosp android, quick updates knowing Google is behind it and if they screw something up in the software they will be quick to release a fix while manufacturers won't be, and to be honest they make shifty UI except Sony imo but I had 2 Xperia phones, both were flagship devices and both sucked.
But as said before, it's your own personal preference. Try it in a shop and you'll see it for yourself. It looks really sexy with the huge display with the tiny bezels and reminds me of the nexus 5 a bit as well. Though I miss my aosp android experience and the quick updates. I however appreciate for instance the IR control and the camera.

So, should I wait for it? It's gonna cost $600+ and I won't buy any other phone in 200 stellar galaxy years after that. lol

The Note 3 was announced early last September and released at the end. Samsung staff have been told there's going to be no annual leave around the middle of Septemeber, the correlates to what happens around their releases. There's no way they'd wait over a month from when they announce to being on sale.
The G3 struggles with the 801 powering it. Check out the videos of a comparison of the G3 805 Vs G3 801. Check out the articles on Samsung's new QHD screen technology also,it uses less power. There may be other better phones out later this year or next but it would be mad to buy an 801 QHD phone when the other major companies are about to release their 805 versions.

Just out of interest, would that be a grey import? The cheapest I can find in UK which is probably imported from EU is £390 which is about 480 Euros. Or is it second hand? Makes more sense if it is the latter.

Would love to read about their new screens using less power, do you have a link?
IMO, it would be worth the wait to see if we get this.

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!
Ok so I don't know if I should have this discussion here or not but here it is.
How many are tired of their pixel I have a XL and Pixel both are unlocked and on stock they was originally on pure Nexus and at first I loved this phone but here lately I hardly even use my phone when I had my note 5 I always used it but idk if it's because I am getting older or what but I think I'm going to sell my pixels and move on to another device . Anyone else getting a lack of interest in the pixel?
Agree, you're getting older.

You probably should've researched your phone buying choice more
The beautiful thing about the Pixel is that everything just works. I have an S8+ and don't really use it because it's just not a smooth experience. I also just got a OnePlus 5, and it's not really a match either (worse display & camera).
Your Pixel is not growing old.... you are.

Have you any idea how ridiculous your op is? There was no insult I was just mirroring your mature thoughts about growing old. Leave it at that and buy another device. You're getting older and this device is just not for old folks.

I think all you Pixel lovers are going to be in for a rude surprise when these start failing in large numbers like the Nexus 6P did. This phone is poorly engineered and runs way too hot internally. Unless Google has managed to reinvent the wheel high temperatures and electronic components have never been a good combination. The Pixel also has truly dreadful speakers. The 6P sounded so much better Google should really be ashamed. They're charging 300 dollars more for a device that runs much hotter than the 6P and which actually sounds worse than a garbage phone that my friend got for 30 dollars at the Cricket Store. I honestly think Pixel owners are in complete denial when it comes to this phone. Yeah the Pixel runs fast and smooth but the CPU gets so hot to achieve that performance that you'll probably have to buy a new Pixel every two years.
I have no problem with Pixel manufacturing or design, aside from the frame not being glued to the screen in the top right corner, which every Pixel device has, no idea why.
My problem with Pixel is that it is a dumb phone compared to something like Note or even Galaxy. All it does is browse the internet, that's it. It does browse very fast, but I could have gotten an iPhone if I wanted a fast dumb phone...
Not a bright OP really, stuttered to figure the English out anyway.
No, not tired of the phone, seven months old mine, and I love it. Best android phone I've ever owned, all I ever wanted was smooth android and Pixel is the first one fulfilling my need, so I'm gonna keep it for as long as I can unless I am really sold to the next iteration. Garbage UI like Samsung and LG's exists, making Pixel the so much better phone anyway.
Pardon the troll above mine, as always.
Lmao the fact people can't take a joke and differentiate between a joke and seriousness is sad.... my op was a serious question all of you who had to make a attempt at being funny ruined a real conversation. It's funny that's y'all was ok with being a prick till it got turned around on you. This is the internet so best not get offended over pettiness. I still stand by my op. It's sad you can't have a conversation these days without some smart as es who gotta ruin it for everyone.....
The pixel could have been alor better idc who you are but is my opinion you could have contributed to this post instead you had to try and be funny. As for the conversation it's still open is like to hear you thoughts

Not for old folks? I'm 76 and loving the rooting and romming of my Marlin. But now that I know it's not for old folks I guess I'll have to get rid of it and dig out the old Star-Tac.
Is been only 3 months since I got my Op5 and there is already a new phone. Why OP why?
Saw the official post on instagram.
The phone will still be the same. I got mine by the end of july and i dont regret it at all
Because that's the way it goes. Same as people who open an new thread for similar questions that's already been answered.
My question is: "Why not?"
I'm gonna be pissed if it's not waterproof. Then it's really just large screen and slightly better front cam based on the rumors.
hopefully they kept capacitive keys, too, otherwise there's even less incentive to upgrade.
I agree
...with OP, this is ridiculous.
It was one thing for OnePlus to come out with the 3T, to incorporate the off-cycle introduction of the Snapdragon 821. But they now expect to support 2 flagship phones a year, every single year? They expect customer loyalty, when they just chose to obsolete us every six months? Insanity.
If your marketing tactics have a loyal, repeat customer such as myself wondering ”why the hell did I even buy this thing?" after only 5 months, you've failed.

Why not? I have this phone from June and i'm happy to have a new variant borderless & APN optimized. It's the same CPU/RAM, so performances will be the same, it's not a mandatory to change mate !
Ofcourse its not mandatory to change but when I buy a new phone, I dont expect the company to release new *flagship* killer phones every 6 months. I mean that's insane.
I mean, I'm sad because if you end up releasing new phones every 6 months with some changes to the previous models, I would always keep waiting as a consumer to buy a new phone from the company because I want the latest model.
Imho, they are just losing customers releasing new phones this quick.
I have a brilliant idea: Only buy the T revision phones, instead of being impatient. That will also teach OnePlus a lesson when their sales plummet.
If the jelly screen bug from oneplus 5 is gone i will get an 5T to replace my Mi6.
Really miss the 3.5 headphone jack.

I like this idea!
Business is business unfortunately.
I genuinely don't mind flogging my OP5 in favor of putting up an extra £100 and buying the 5T.
New phone that incorporates some features I want. Honestly don't see what the issue is.
Also I don't see an issue with a company trying to improve it's product.

Look Ma! I got famous! ????
It should be atleast 50$ costlier than 5
Other smartphone manufacturers do this as well. It actually maximises sales.
The 5T isn't marketed to 5 owners. They're going after 3/3T owners looking to upgrade.
They should have added a microSD card slot, how much more can it be? The phone is big and already has room for it.

These days, people are after big screens, headphone jacks and large batteries. I think storage options seem to be okay with the 128gb in there. 256 would have been welcomed I suppose.
I would be happy to get updated phone even every 6 months or so, that would perfect.
Just came across the unboxing video link..

I'm just curious how many of you plan on getting the XL3. I've bought a new flagship every year since 2011 but I'm not really liking the leaks I've seen of the XL3. Perhaps once I see one in person my opinion will change but right now I'm seriously thinking about keeping a phone for 2 years for the first time. I would consider the Note 9, V40, etc. but I'm pretty much sold on the Pixel line and don't really want a third party device. The smaller Pixel 3 looks nice but I don't want a small screen. Even 6in feels small to me these days so I know I wouldn't like anything less than 6.
What are y'alls plan this fall? Please vote in the poll.

I am on same boat, but most probably will buy Pixel 3 XL unless it is too ugly
Nope. I don't see the need or even want to get a phone yearly anymore. I don't even get people who switch multiple phones within the same year. The differences and advances are so subtle. Waiting every 2 years makes it more worthwhile.

Can't argue with you. It would definitely make a lot more sense to wait 2 years.
No, waiting for the notch fad to die, then I'll get a notchless Pixel 4 XL
And I don't think the new SoCs and features are enough these days to upgrade yearly. The benefits hardly justify spending $1000 (in Canadian Monopoly money) every 12 months
Like OP, I get a new phone every year and that trend will most likely continue when the 3XL releases. I don't mind the notch, so no big deal for me there!
Absolutely
No. To be honest Pixel 3 is more interesting for me. Quite compact, no notch. If it will has good battery and really new features I will think about switching from my 2xl.
