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... Also what type of video files would it play (ex. .mkv .mp4 .vid so on) i ask because a cool thing about the SGS 4G is i dont have to convert the videos i DL like i had to with my CrapPhone oops i ment iPhone...

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.

On the contrary, the fact that its carrying a Tegra gets me all hot and bothered under the battery cover.

Crap, I should have waited. How much do y'all think a used galaxy s 4g is worth?

lol, I'm not sure, check your local craigslist and eBay.

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.

It was initially planned to have a Dual Core Tegra 2, I believe.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App

I dont see what the fuss is, my thunderbolt kills my xoom w/ tegra 2 all over the cpu benchmarks. Dual core is more of a gimmick than anything right now with these phones.

I still don't see why we need dual and coming soon quad core processors. With stock android everything runs great.

When the os is written to make use of multi-core processors battery life should improve. That's the biggest plus I can think of at the moment.

By the time that happens, youll be on an new phone anyways (probably another year or two). I guess some people (like the OP) will never be happy with the current phone they have.

Samsung Galaxy S3 revealed!

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.

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.

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.

I coulda swore that HSPA+ was receiving 1.4 Quad core and LTE was receiving 1.5 Dual.

Should I get this or the SGSIII?

The SGS people are being useless and not replying to my thread with a few questions about the device... but the One X seems to have all better hardware (except possibly the LCD screen, which you could argue about) for the same price.
What do you all think? I kinda want the one X just for the quad core.

Just saying.

If you're on ATT, the One X is still dual core.
That being said, I have had both. The One X is a great phone, amazing build quality. The SGSIII is a better phone with more features, but not quite as good of build quality. I use the s3.

The Verge reviewed the HTC One and said it has a mediocre camera (they have test shots), mediocre battery life (and no removable battery), and not much going for it aside from its look and feel.
And no, a 4 MP "Ultrapixel" camera is still a 4 MP camera. It doesn't magically multiply the pixels. All it results in is better lighting because it can process 3 times more light than a normal camera. They would have been better off even putting a "Normal-Pixel" 5 MP camera.

While that is probably a quite accurate comparison, its still based on rumour and speculation. And the differences in spec as you look down the page are mostly negligible.
Its going to be a split room based on personal requirements, and its only going to be things like build quality/battery/sd slot/onboard software etc. which will push most people one way or another.
I'm going to wait for the SGSIV release with an open mind... work with some real facts and figures, and get some hands-on when they are both in the shops together.

Rooting always depends on the device developers.
If there are good developers,
They create one click root,
If they are average they create root access in patched which makes it tough to root.
Sry no offence to developrs.

See the facts samsung let my note taste 3 major android flavors. I am satisfied with their software update thing.
2. Their phone quality looks cheap maybe coz i didnt feel it that way but their phones are durable. I never heard anyone cracking the plastic. Unless its a major accident.
3. Their phones outperform and have too much development.
4. Futuristic hardware and removable battery.
5. All other oems even google cheat once they sell their product and when it comes to repair. Most even dont have service centers.
6. Plenty of storage due to expandable cards. Other oem force u to use their cloud service. Plus on the go usb makes it way too better.
7. Oleds are way better than lcds which are just brighter and battery eaters.
8. No overheating and plastic has a role in it.
9. Good camera and built in editor
10. Spen if ur a note user..
