Are LG Android phones any good? 6 years ago i had a LG flip phone and it was crap... But im not going to lie this one really got me looking and maybe keep me with the T-Mo...

Same. I'm holding onto my early upgrade waiting for it, then will be selling the Vibrant.
Dang it looks really similar to our phone.
I'm holding off for the HTC Pyramid, whenever that comes out, that phone looks sick nasty.

+1 this phone looks ridiculous. I just hope it feels better than the thunderbolt.
LG typically makes mediocre phones at best, at least in my experience.
According to most of the reports this thing is insanely fast. I for one am picking one up plus its running stock android and so far all the "g" series phones have large development communities.

Screw it ill stick with this phone. I'd rather get better battery life with a slower phone. I mean this phone is already really fast and once there are custom roms out it will be even better. Ill be getting a new phone next year anyways because of the whole at&t thing.

Actually the dual cores have better battery life apparently because they don't kick in the 2nd processor until needed. That's what all the articles I've read have said.

Oh I just thought it would have worst battery life because it only has a 1500mah battery while an atrix has a 1900?mah battery and it gets the same battery life as our galaxy s in comparison videos.

Screw that phone. Ill stick with my phone which i can actually use the entire day without needing to carry around a spare battery or charger. From reading the lg optimus 2x forums apparently that phone has absolutely TERRIBLE battery life. I can understand why too, its using a 15000mah battery with hspa+ and dual core. Just look at the atrix, it has a 19000 mah battery and yet its battery life is close to our phone which is not impressive to begin with.

1,3,4,5 = Fixed with new rom's.
2= Have you tried taking pictures with "night mode"? I would (and have) put this camera up against any camera phone w/flash any day (or night ).
And yes, IMHO, the screen is a huge improvement over similar phones. I held mine next to a mtg4g, HD7 and a g2, no comparison. Now idk about the newer phones.

The G2X has 4.0 Inches, WVGA 16M Colors, TFT Capacitive Touchscreen I will go to T-Mobile and Verizon today and compare my phone with the other phones, see if I can see a big difference or not
Night mode sucks let's not be fanatics now, no flash = BAD PICTURES There is a reason why flash was invented there is no workaround for that
So let's keep this a matter of facts Flash is better than No Flash That's a fact
Why?i thought we had the better gpu? In reading the galaxy 2 is in the 40s stock, and I got 25fps not overclocked... I guess I could try the test at 1.2 ghz but that wouldn't put me in the 40s...
So how come the sgs2 beats the g2x by a lot when were supposed to have a better gpu? Sensation gets what we get and it has way more pixels...

there is no standard across the different chips... some gpu's can produce shapes or run executions that other chips cannot... try playing monopoly classic on your g2x... you cant because it requires a snapdragon chip to produce certain textures a certain way yet our phones are way more powerful than the mt4g which runs the game fine...
this is also why companies like gameloft have to produce different versions of their games for different phones... its next to impossible to accurately benchmark phones yet...

Hes right.theres a video where they both play 1080p in the browser and g2x skips and the sgs2 plays beautifully..
That's because the SGS2 supports the NEON instruction set, which accelerates video decoding. The latest Flash Player takes advantage of this and uses the phone's GPU to accelerate decoding Flash video. The Tegra 2 doesn't support NEON, so it has to be done using the phone's CPU, which is why it's choppy.

This CPU is great for keeping stuff moving. I can listen to Pandora while using maps and its smooth, then the phone rings and there's no lag, and it keeps things responsive. So that's it, the dual core snapdragon keeps things moving and it does one hell of a job at it.

Definitely worth the upgrade. Only thing the Vibrant has over this phone is the Super Amoled. The G2x has a faster processor, 1080p Video recording, front facing camera, 8 megapixel camera, 4g (feels way faster than my myTouch 4g and G2x) one of the loudest speakers I've heard on a smartphone and I've owned numerous of smartphone's (Nexus One, Nexus S, myTouch 4g, G2, Vibrant, HD7 etc.). The screen has a nice curve around the edge that feels so good when swiping across pages, pictures etc. The issues this phone has is mainly software based since Gingerbread isn't intended for dual core. ICE CREAM SANDWICH should fix this issue if we will ever get an official release from LG. If not there's always XDA devs that will be more than willing to bring this update to the G2x.

Not to argue, but my reason behind saying gingerbread isn't optimized is that when Google created gingerbread there was no dual core around. The software had single core in mind. G2x users are still experiencing random reboots, but not as frequent as before.

Because the gb update is still ****!!! Cmon I think there even saying T-Mobile pulled the update to fix some bugs and gb is more optimized for dual core then froyo is what I was getting at. Dude gb is definitely good for dual core especially if optimized rite and all the bugs are worked out u can manage ur apps better and gb has a built in task killer if u choose to use it and I/0 is better. Oh and better battery management, idk I would say gb bug free is definitely great for dual core phones look at the sgs 2
Hands down a major upgrade!! I've had a mint vibrant sitting around the whole time I've had a G2x, and never have seriously considered using it during the trials and tribulations with the G2x. The GPS is all but unusable, and while the screen is very contrasty, saturated and bright, it's also grainy, not very sharp for the resolution specs. I prefer the sharpness and clarity of the G2x IPS LCD.
I ended up getting a second G2x for testing/hacking and sold the Vibrant. A good phone, but the useless GPS was completely unacceptable.

You can buy it from overseas and use At & t for using the 3G/4G speeds. And AT&T has a $50 unlimited talk, text, and data.

I was gonna wait for a SGSII Varient, or the Hercules, but i just didnt feel like waiting for the SGSII, and the Hercules screen is probably going to be too big. So i went out and bought it.
Gonna root and put CM7 on it. Hope its worth it!
Thanks everyone!
Its definitely worth it u will be happy your video camera will do 30 fps. , u will still have screenshot, just hold power down u will see the menu, cm increased data speeds, fixed battery issues, there's touch to focus for the camera, alot of nice **** that cm has incorporated into our phone download the latest nightly it is very stable and more stable then rc1 plus more stuff has been incorporated since rc1. Oh and we have voodoo sound for the g2x which is sick just flash fauxs kernel I think he's the only one with the loading module in his kernel, and we also have tons of roms to choose from if u ain't feeling cm, I love my phone with cm tho, the g2x is the best phone state side
Where does it say that the G2x has an IPS display? I thought the resolution on our G2x is 800x400?

IPS refers to the technology used in the display. It has nothing to do with resolution
Just wait another month and get the Hercules or SGSII variant.

IPS = In Plane Switching. Here is a link explaining the technology.

Thank you sir. I half knew what it was but only remember seeing it implented on phones with resolutions higher than 800x400. But that has cleared up my confusion.

HTC One X or S3? lemme know ur guys thoughts on this!!
Sounds like the US model will be lte.. probably getting the dual core kraits like the One S/X Att model. I have the One S, the only advantage to me would be removable storage of the S3. I prefer smaller screens and the One S form factor is awesome. I think this year's releases from both HTC and Samsung look promising.
I guess the last point or question would be Touchwiz or Sense? I have always prefered Sense if It's not vanilla aosp.

Dual core for the USA? Really? Sad. I was prepared to make the jump. Oh well. Better luck next time Samsung.
Its quad core for USA isn't it? It'll just use 21 mbps

For tmo it might use the exynos, LTE versions might use the S4 because of qualcomm still not working with some manufacturers the do LTE on other SoC.

That would make me jump ship, but I have seen multiple reports stating it will be dual core for T-mo because t-mo is more concerned with the high speed data.
I guess it is wait and see at this point. We can hope.
The tegra is the only cpu that has issues with LTE from what I've seen. Every other chip should be fine.

What does the processor have to do with internet data?

Take the T-Mobile Galaxy S II for example. The original Exynos processor found in the international Galaxy S II wasn't compatible with the full speed 42mbps HSPA+ that T-Mobile has, so T-Mobile opted for a Snapdragon S3 instead.
