LG optimus 4x or samsung Samsung s3 - General Topics

Hi all, I am so stuck between these two!! The Samsung s3 would cost me a extra 80quid but I am trying to justify spending the extra on a device which is very similar spec.
Would appreciate people's thoughts, opinions and experiences
Many thanks!

I have an lg 4x hd. I love it. The only problem is the locked bootloader. It is supposedly going to be unlocked, but who knows when that will ever happen. Great phone though. I think it is much more durable than the s3.
Just my opinion......
Did a little more searching... seems some european models are able to be unlocked. Haven't tried it yet.

+1 the above
I have the 4X HD as well and love it. It is faster than my colleague's S3, the battery lasts longer and it looks better too.
If you want something that you can put custom ROMs on, then the S3 will probably always have better support, but if you want a device that works go for the 4X HD. I have a Nexus 7 and my old HTC DS for my ROM work, so my phone can do what it is designed for.

I prefer LG to Samsung but at this level it's all about personal preference

Thanks all swaying towards lg now a little, I am just really bad with descions like this two years is a long time to have a phone

Wich phone would you pick?

So I though of upgrading my nexus one. The possible candidats are a htc one s or a motorola razr maxx. If you had to choose wich one would you take? I don't like that big screens, so 4.3 inches seems to be a sweat spot for me. Could you recomend me other phones?
Thx

Razr Maxx has the best battery life out of all smartphones in the market so if you are looking for a phone that has great battery life, the razr maxx is the phone to get. Other good phones are the GNexus and the SGS3 which have full support of Ics and JB.
The best hardware right now is the galaxy s iii. The best software support is on the galaxy nexus.
I wouldn't get something as locked down as the Motorola unless you're okay with only ever getting one android update, and getting it super late. And I think the gsiii does everything the HTC does and then some.
My choice is (and probably always will be) the nexus because I have more control over it than any other device, but the gsiii is a good choice now as well.

At that screen size I'd take the Galaxy s2 or Sony Xperia S or One S in that order
The maxx is good but lack of support kills it. Battery life is the only reason to get it.

galaxy s2 will be the best choice for the range of the screen size & samsung is still continuing to update the software on s2
yea S2 is very nice now and the price is low
a galaxy nexus.
I would buy galaxy nexus.

Did all four of you guys seriously just ignore the fact that he wants a phone with a 4.3 inch screen? Those would be too big for him.
I would have to agree with SII, great development and Samsung supports Cyanogenmod, what more could you ask for? Still has great specs too.

I would realy like that extra battery life on the maxx and it just got the ics update. But are phones with bigger screens like 4.8" in dimensions a lot bigger than that with 4.3"?
Thx to you all

There's too many of these threads all over the place on here now.
None of us can give you a definite answer of what phone to get because ultimately, it's your choice and none of us can change that. And if a you're after is suggestions, why not just think of a few yourself and float round the specific sections for those phones so you can read peoples responses to the phone.
I'll end up making a dedicated thread for this kinda thing if I see too many more of these

It starts getting difficult at 5+ and becomes a matter of taste there. Otherwise 4.8 has proven manageable with phones like sensation and galaxy s3.
Consider that the maxx is not HD and is aged technology, even at launch there were complaints on moto holding out,if you also don't mind this carry on.
Consider you can always get an extended battery for something like the s3 or optimus 4x without a great increase in bulk as they're thin.

Which phone should I get?

Well, as the title reads, which phone should I get next? My AT&T contract will be fulfilled in the next couple of months so, I've been looking at available AT&T phones. I currently have an HTC Desire Z and I love the size of it - easy to put in and take out of my jeans pocket. Most of the new phones I see are so big they should come with a back pack for them. Can anyone recommend a late model, fast phone that isn't as huge as the HTC One X and Samsung G3? And, please don't say "Iphone".
No offence but they don't sell those phones without camera anymore welcome to 2012 almost 13 everything is big now TV's cellphones etc

Sent from my Rooted Gameboy
I think ~5" is the perfect size for a smartphone - big enough screen to see things and enjoy it, but small enough to still use effectively with one hand.
Honestly, I remember the first cell-phone I ever used and it was WAY bigger.
If you do want something smaller, though - I don't know, I'd probably look at international phones that would work with ATT, or just go into an ATT store or such and look around. The Galaxy S3 Mini is smaller, but I don't know how well it will work on ATT and what you could expect (it lacks LTE, I've heard). It also depends on the performance you're expecting.
have you considered one of those quality Chinese android handsets ?
things like the Newman N1, GooPhone, ZTE V970 etc ?
I think you should go with Galaxy S3. I am also using this phone last some months it's a superb mobile phone bacase it has 4.8 inch Superb Super AMOLED display with saturated colors and high contrast with 8 megapixel camera with autofocus, flash and HD video recording, 4.0 android operating system, Quad-core 1.4 GHz Processor and 2050 mAh battery capacity. You can read full details here:
themobileindian.com/handset-guide/details/Samsung-Galaxy-SIII
Thanks for all the replies! I do plan to look around the AT&T store but sometimes its a little overwhelming when I start diving into the specs for every phone.
I was not aware of the "quality" made chinese phones; I may look into that.
Thanks again for the help and if there are anymore recommendations please, keep them coming.

Well i have an s3 and a note 2 but i gotta say the new iphone 5 is the best it beats most droid phones.
If i could afford one i would get one.

Getting my kid a new phone for Christmas (she has my old Droid X). Was contemplating an IPhone, soley because of the incredible speech-to-text features (something my Bionic is woefully poor at) Sales dude at Verizon showed me what a Samsung can do in that realm....was utterly impressed....no diference from the 'Sirry' IPhone thing (apparently it hinges on a google service)
what's your budget? Desire z is mid range so if your budget is about the same then look at Galaxy S2.
Budget will be determined by AT&T having a phone I will settle with on a contract extension so, I guess my budget will be $200~300.

Best phone on the market at the minute (*arguably*) is the ASUS Padfone 2.. but sadly it isn't available in the US (no US release date mentioned yet either).. so would probably say the LTE version of the Samsung Galaxy S3 would be a contender..
I'm not really looking at the IPhone 5 but will the IPhone 5 sync with my google contacts and google calendar? That's one thing I really like about the android phones. From my research the iphone 5 can be made to sync with all my google stuff but how effective/accurate is it? Are there any bugs or issues with this?
C
I just took the Huawei U8836d shine and i'm very happy with it. Changed the stock rom to custom and has great battery life than other chinese brands. Great design. gorilla glass and sturdy materials plus very thin and comfortable. Check it out.
I recommend Samsung Galaxy Note II , it's really amazing phone very fast , smooth and got the latest Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean

Galaxy Ace for your Preffered Size
I would Suggest to go for Samsung Galaxy Ace or You can Opt for Huawei Ascend.
I will suggest you to don't go for small screen size as 2013 will be the Year of Big Screens so if you are willing then go for Note II you will love it and Also will get use to its Big Size.

Both phones are really good an both running jelly bean. I'm sure as the user said above, the sgs3 has more development being the more popular phone. But that's irrelevant if you don't plan on rooting and modding your phone.
Best bet is to play with them in hand. Both offer similar performance which hardware difference such as screen size, navigation keys vs hardware keys, etc. I can't always use my sgs3 with just one hand. Depends what I'm doing. My gf has the RAZR m and everything can be done one hand.
IMO, the sgs3 is the better device. Bigger screen, and camera. But the form factor and edge to edge screen of the RAZR m is awesome once you pick it up.

I hate the Motorola phones but I have to admit as phones you can have a clear phone call and not drop the call. The S3 even after the JB update still has issues. Not everyone has that problem but if you read the forums, certainly enough do that you might want to consider it.
P3droid has one, if it can be hacked, he's the guy to do it. He's been kinda quiet lately about it. Maybe he's done. Give him a follow on Twitter.

Motorola phones are not so great if you like to root & flash roms. I came from a Razr Maxx. I know this. And the Photon on Sprint can't even function fully if you unlock the boot loader. It's ridiculous with Motorola phone's.
If you want a smaller phone and a UI that's close to stock Android, go with the Razr M. If you want a phone that has better features, more user friendly functions, great camera, good wireless radio, and good development, go with the S3.

I wouldn't touch a Motorola phone with a ten foot pole.
i will admit, that, while i love my S3 and would NOT trade it for my wife's RazrM, i do get jelous sometimes with her better reception. IN the same exact place, she has a better chance of hooking up with a weak reception than i am. HOWEVER, i do love all the DEV support the S3 has, all the tweaks and various hacks on it. SO would still pick the S3 over the Razr M for that reason alone.
:cyclops:
I was in this exact scenario a month ago. I tried the Razr M first and didn't like it for three big reasons: 1) the camera is horrible. I don't know how they messed that one up so badly, but they did. 2) The phone was really slow on ICS. I'm not sure how much better it is on JB, but it was driving me nuts. 3) I actually didn't find the reception to be that great.
The S3 has better specs and better dev support as mentioned, but it is a bigger phone. At first that is why I went with the Razr M but I ended up being a very, very happy S3 owner. Everything from the camera to speed to especially the dev support... all awesome.
Thanks for your input, but I'll be going with the M.
The S3 feels like crap compared to the M, and the compact device fits my smaller hands perfectly.
Both devices are equally fast and speedy.
As dev support goes, I'll just have to port some good ROMs.

What radio issues? - the S3 is perfect and works better than any other phone on the market! JK Someone usually posts this sort of defensive thing when I mention the crappy radio on the Samsung phones with Verizon, I'm glad others mention it as I hope somehow that feedback will get back to Samsung and they will improve the radio as I really like their phones otherwise.
I think the Radio issue is a hit or miss on the S3. I have no issues. I get better reception in bad areas with my S3 than I did with my Razr Maxx. But I probably got lucky with a good one. I use to have the S2 on Sprint and I know exactly what people are talking about when they say the radio is bad. That phone was the worst for wireless radio.

Goodbye S4...

I know most of you won't care, but I want to say goodbye to my S4, all of you on the AT&T Galaxy S4 forum and Samsung in general.
I won't be buying another Samsung phone until they finally realize that they need to badly optimize their software. I am finally sick and tired of the lag and slowdowns on this phone regardless of rom and kernel combination. And the Note 3 videos show the signature Touchwiz ui lag once again, snapdragon 800, 3gb of ram and all.
I will be getting my LG G2 on Tuesday and will be selling my S4. Good luck to you all it has been real and there are a lot of great people here! Hope to see you all again one day.

Umm, are you serious? You base your statement on what? I bought a LG Optimus G Pro for extremely cheap to check out the LG software and ui and then I flipped it for a profit.
There was zero lag. As in none that I could find. And look at the videos of the G2. The thing looks screaming fast and can only be faster than he Optimus G Pro with the Snapdragon 800. That is scary to think about because the Optimus G Pro is scary fast.
Compare that to the Note 3 videos and you can see lag all over the ui which is standard for Samsung lately.

I ran an LG OGP numerous times before getting the S4. No lag--I just didn't like the 5 inch size. Good Luck--
Still say the s4 is better and nicer. The screen is outstanding and mine with the mf3 update works great. Every android phone lags a little. Also 4.3 is coming to the s4 in October because they need to update it for it to work with the new smartwatch.

To each their own. Before owning the S4 and note 2 I had the optimus G and with the S4 pro CPU and andreno 320 GPU the phone was very fast and fluid. LG has been stepping their game up IMO.

Upgrade suggestions?

So the blaze is now over 2 years old... we've seen a lot of our xda brothers that once contributed and were active users leave the blaze threads, only few remain and things have really slowed down here, these threads just aren't as live and booming as they used to be, well I've been eligible for an upgrade for a while now, so anyone have any suggestions?

well i will say go for nexus devices...peferably nexus 5...always first to get updates and great at hardware part too...u get pure android experience along with lots of options as the sources are always out there and nothing like touchwiz or sense messing up the developement...the developement is most active in those devices and sources are always there taken directly from google repos
Well, I'm moving soon and I need a different phone since I don't have 4g over there. Im looking at the lg g2, since it has one of the best batteries and its not too big. It's LG's flagship and I like the knock on feature!

I'd recommend getting the Nexus 5. As I am a fan of AOSP it's outstanding. Performance is great, haven't had any trouble with any lags (well exaggerating much lol) and it just feels right for me. 2.26 GHz is just amazing. Unlike the Blaze it has 16 GB of memory which is great for having the big applications. 8MP camera could be better, but it's still outstanding.
When I was ready for upgrade it was between nexus 5 and moto x. I chose moto x and have had no issues. CM11 and other ROMs are being developed

Thanks to those who have given me suggestions originally I was thinking something mainstream and well known like a flagship phone like the S5 or something like that but is their price tag really worth it or is there a better not as well known phone? Kinda like how the blaze basically was a smaller S2? I mean I'm looking for a Samsung, LG, or Motorola? Price isn't a problem I just want long lasting battery life, performance, 4G / LTE, A Good Camera and A Reasonable Storage Space? Any new suggestions?

well if price aint a problem then s5 is definitely what ya looking for...awsome battery life.. u can easily get 15 hours video playback..or u can get htc one(m8) which is a tad bit heavier coz of its metal casing...but what i dont like about them phones is that they are laden with so much crap that we dont ever use...and s5 is big on fitness stuff...and yes moto g is for you if ya looking for smaller screen(4.5 inch...bigger than blaze) but still easy to use with one hand...good specs..actually better specs than phones almost about twice the price...good battery life(9-10 hour video playback) and internal storage is optional for 8gb or 16 gb..
I tried the moto g, well I owned one for a short period of time... I got grounded for some bs so I went into target and bought one of those prepaid phones to use as a WiFi phone I absolutely loved it but I returned it when I got ungrounded anyways I decided to wait for the nexus 6 but I'll probably buy a nexus 5 sometime this week to use in the meantime

Xperia z is a nice alternative to the n5, the only problem I find is that it lacks the stock recovery.
Z1 is the later version, might like that.

I'll give all the suggestions a try when I go to T-Mobile later this week
