Looking for an 8" tablet. Coming from Nexus 7 2012 which is too slow for me and my aging eyes could use something a little bigger but still highly portable (one hand operation.)
The best bet seems to be the LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play edition but new ones are few and far between fetching low-mid $300 and used are even rare on Ebay fetching $225-$250. That's a lot for a used 8" tablet!
Then there's the Lenovo Yoga 2. Downside is it isn't going to get the updates quick. Can anyone comment on what Lenovo's track record is on Android updates? What would you estimate the time before the Yoga 2 gets Lolipop? 2 months? 4 months? 6+ months?
The other option would be to get the V500 G Pad and install CyanogenMod. I had CM on my Samsung S3 and it was very stable. However I now am enjoying the stock quick updates on my Nexus 5 and prefer the simplicity of staying stock. Plus, how long before CM comes out with Lolipop for G Pad or Yoga 2 8?
If I'm not in a hurry to get Lolipop, seems the best bang for the buck is to get the non Google Play G Pad and install CM. But time is money. I can get a brand new Yoga 2 8 for $219 right now. About the same price I can get a used G Pad GP Edition for and then I have Lolipop right away.
Having a tough time making a decision. Any insight is appreciated.
I'm looking for RED LG G Flex 2 in the UK. I don't want to purchase the Korean or HK model due to connectivity and bloatware issues.
Anyone seen RED LG G Flex 2 in Europe? Or to be more specific European (H955) model?
I'm looking to buy a phone - I've narrowed it down to 4 choices, each from B&H Photo Video.
Moto G4 Plus - $189.99
LG G4 - $229.99
Moto G5 Plus - $229.99
LG G5 - $299.99
I'm looking for people's opinions and recommendations on which to get - I'm leaning towards the G4 Plus atm.
Let the discussions begin!

Better ask here [Device suggestions thread by kidcarter93]
Hi, I'm looking to buy a Moto G Pro(european variant of the G Stylus). I'm currently on T-Mobile in the US, so I would like to have band 71 for any phone I use. Can anyone confirm whether or not the G Pro has band 71? I mainly want to try the G Pro in the US to get NFC. Thanks.
The Moto G Stylus 2020 does not have NFC. Are you saying the Moto G Pro (European variant of the G Stylus 2020) has NFC?

From what I can tell from the spec sheet of the moto g pro, it apparently does. It also does not mention any band 71, so I suppose that answers my original post. Would it be possible that the G Stylus has NFC, but it just isn't activated in software?
I've read elsewhere here the G Stylus 2020 doesn't have NFC hardware but it does have Band 71.

So at this point, the question I want to ask is: Given that the G Stylus and G Pro are close hardware-wise, would it be possible to mod in NFC onto the G Stylus, or vise versa(band 71 support to the G Pro)? Im hoping the G Stylus has unpopulated contacts that I could stick a G Pro frame on to get NFC(assuming I can find a frame from a G Pro).
Like I said it's been said the hardware for NFC isn't installed on the G Stylus 2020. Idk about Band 71 hardware on the G Pro.
