Dat arrangement, speaker, camera and light, is a straight copy from the galaxy s3

Actually the older design of LG Optimus phones resemble the galaxy more. But now I think LG tries to differentiate from Samsung with their new models

But with a bigger battery, faster processor, high mp camera, and glass (not Plastic) design.
Will it perform as well as the Note? Doubt it.

In the first LG Optimus G video you see a lot of lag .
Lag in 0:31, 1:14, 1:25, 1:29 time .
That's because LG Optimus G or because Android ??

ok LG that was unimpressive...apart from the screen being 1080p there's no real difference in hardware from the awesome Note 2...the bacl looks more glossy than the Note 2....and the most importantly this thing does not have half the unique software features found on the Note 2!
So why would anyone in their right mind buy this? the Note 2 blows this out of the water with software alone becuase its not a phone...its so much more! And lets not get started with the Note 3...
Moreover I smell a lawuit coming up as the front is too similar to the Note 2 as well...I am not in favor of a lawsuit but I smell it coming

Super nice! Huge battery, buttery smooth! Can't see any downsides to this as of yet....need to see some camera shots.
2013 is gonna be great for android!

Cough cough I would never look at any lg device ever period, mate u get this might be good in first couple of months and booomm days it lg has forgotten this device, no updates no nothing
5. drpain posted on 25 Feb 2013, 05:46 2 7
android has matured. no need for constant huge updates

A downside? It is LG........ sold my LG Optimus 4 HD after a week and CEX couldn't shift it even though it was not yet released in the UK as I bought it from Amazon.de! No resale value is also a killer added to non existent updates! Pass, methinks!!

Love the screen specs and slim bezel but the ui looks to lag a little in places on that video

benchmarks are pretty low for a flagship device...13k + only on Antutu? what the hell happened there? im not shitting look it up on google

It didn't quite make a stir like how HTC and Sony did with their flagships.

This doesn't have achance againste the Note 2 No way. Even Droid DNA is better.

Why LG? Your other designed phones look so good but this? No thanks.. I would think I had a SS phone if I had this..

Only thing missing from the device, project butter; new device such lag.

Nothing cool...I dont know why these people are not understanding that it's not only about GHz or MegaPixels...they need to put new things in the OS like samsung's multi windows, smart stay and so on.... so i think S3 is still better and note 2 is still the king

Screens are getting larger by the day, at least have some features like the Note 2. Otherwise an impressive looking phone and not half baked

HTC One is there to put an end to ever increasing screen size and camera resolution-decreasing both from its predecessor

wouldnt it be more fitting if you compare the optimus g pro versus the note 2 Ray?

I thought this was a Note 2 before reading the title...

Touching screen while downloading and installing programs? See the upper bar on the screen with arrow on it. isn't it unfair for showing a new product?

"The phone is quite compact for the screen size and with minimal bezel on the sides, aiding the slender profile, yet it feels larger than the Galaxy S III we had"
Umm....dont you think this should be compared to the note 2 instead.... O.o
