I apologize for that.

Nexus 4 is a better choice since it is based on AOSP although Optimus G seems to be more brushed up and have a better battery life.
Sometimes i wonder why Optimus G's battery can last longer than the Nexus 4 even after applying a custom kernel? Anything special that can be learnt from the kernel builded by LG?

[Q] Advice

Hi ... I ddecided to give the Samsung Galaxy Mini 2 in favor of another's phone .. or two phones.The phone are LG Nexus 4 or LG Optimus G ... are almost similar ... difference is the camera.But I want to buy from America .. and I'm in Europe.
Question is which of phone is better? Both performance and design.And if you take the phone from America ... will be a problem with sim .. meaning phone will accept my operator?

HY,you will have no problem with the sim/operator if you buy the INTERNATIONAL configuration,this means you cant but from at&t,sprint,stc,but you can from other sites.NOW,it depends of whta you want,if pure android is for you(you give up some widgets and other things from lg's ui)than choose nexus 4,if you want a better,bigger screen,with more processing power and better camera,choose LG.
NEXUS 4 +price,android updates(you will be the first one to have 4.3/5),design,the sexappel.
-shock resistance,camera,battery.
LG OPTIMUS G +proccesor,battery,camera,screen,resistance ,other gizmos
-sexappel,(it almoust never gets android updates),so android upgrades,and it is overheating.
PLEASE PRESS THANKS IF I HELPED!!!

Buy Nexus 4 you will love it! I extremely recommend it.

Which buy Nexus 4 or Moto G?

Hi guys, i'm looking for a new cheap android smartphone. I saw nexus 4 is still a good phone, but most people are going with n5 and n4 is no longer supported by google.
I don't want to spend much so i'd prefer to buy moto g. Also, i know android thanks to my friends, but i'm still with nokia 5800 (symbian) and i think i'll be happy switching to android. Which devide do you advice?
Is really resistant moto G? I see it has gorilla 3 instead nexus 4 has gorilla 2. I need a resistant phone because i travel every day with school/work.
Also, i'm going to buy "rubesperry pi", i heard is possible to connect the "pi" to android smarthphone. Is moto g a good device to run "Pi" ? also can Moto G run Ubuntu Touch/Backtrack/Kali linux too? I don't know if 1GB of ram is enough for Moto G
Do you still prefer nexus 4 (2GB of ram) for modding, dual boot other OS etc or Moto G is good too?
thanks a lot for your time reading my post

Could i get some advices please? Or this is wrong section? thank you

Hi, nexus 4 is supported officially , and will be supported unofficially for years to come. Nexus 4 is a far superior phone than moto g and can do anything like Ubuntu or any other os , has support more than any phone

I owned the g2 then I moved onto the g pro 2 (d838) as I got a fantastic deal on a new one on ebay.
The g2 is an excellent device with a fairly decent custom rom scene thanks mostly to @Cloudya but the g pro 2 has similar hardware specs with the massive bonus of a 5.9 inch screen (g2=5.2 inch) an extra 1gb of ram, a micro sd card slot, a removable battery and an improved ois on the camera.
I absolutely love my g2 pro 2 but, at the moment, the dev scene is practically non-existant. We have easy root but no custom recovery. I can't understand why this device isn't popular, It is excellent and as soon as we users flaunt this fact then perhaps people (especially developers) will buy this device and develop for it.
In saying this, on stock, this is the best device that I have ever owned and I have had many.

Agreed, I have owned a g2, loved it. this G Pro 2 is even better. All specs mentioned in above post are 1 reason why I like it more. Another is the size, I can't see my self going g2 size again. This phone is the best I've owned, and that list is long. I sold my galaxy note 3 after using this for a week.

G Pro 2! I own a nexus 5 and now got a D838. I cant start explaining how much more awsome the G Pro 2 is. The screen and the battery life are the selling points for me.

Seconded!

G Pro 2!This have a Micro SD Slot and Removable Battery,and i love the Size!We can root the G Pro 2,but no Custom Recovery(D838)

I also don't understand why LG hasn't released this flagship to Europe anyway? Luckily eBay is there to help us.

[Q] Should I buy the Asus Zenfone 5 with Android 4.3 or Moto G with Android 4.4?

his phone ships with Android 4.3 Jellybean and is the same price as Moto G which ships with kitkat but I like the design of this phone better than the Moto G and it has a 5 inch screen vs 4.5 on Moto and Asus has promised a Kitkat update.However I am sure Moto G would get Android L and Asus has made no such announcement for Zenfone.So what I want to know is whether Android L is so dramatically different than Kitkat?Otherwise I will just ignore the design and buy the Moto.Thanks in advance for helping

Has expandable memory? Bigger screen?2gb ram? ZenUI and it will surely get AOSP rooms.. so its a good deal.

Are you sure that Zenfone 5 is gonna get AOSP ROMS?

3-4 hour battery-life, sluggish performance in games.

One plus or mi 3 will be good option.

It's highly likely, considering the Moto G hasn't even been out a year (flagship phones usually get 2 year support) and there is no technical reason I'm aware of that would rule it out.

moto g for me..you will not regret

Intel phones are gash!! I had a orange San Fransisco and it wasnt good..
No apps worked or very little because it was a intell processor. Don't get it

I've a colleague next to me crying about the display of Asus Zenfone 5. I suggested him G and Mi3.

I would go for the moto g, I have the same dilemma with you. And I bought moto g. Moto g has official software support from Motorola, and an active XDA development section. Considering that Zenfone 5 has an Intel processor, the rom on zenfone 5 will be fewer. I've bought a Chinese phone without any good custom roms and that was painful to me.

App compatibility issues has been addressed by Asus using OTA updates. There has been a few ota updates since zenfone has been out in the market. I admire Asus for addressing issues quickly. anyways..
Ask yourself if you love playing around with roms and like to experience vanilla android on your device, if the answer is yes then go with Moto G. Don't expect any aosp roms for zenfone 5 anytime soon. But, I'd still get the zenfone 5. It's a matter of personal preference. Even if we advice you with so many things about the pros and cons of both devices, at the end of the day it is still your money. Just follow your heart. LOL.

Moto G undoubtedly

Find a detailed explanation for your question here techno4use.wordpress.com/2014/08/01/best-budget-smart-phone

Asus Zenfone 4.5
Asus has the Zenfone 4.5 or Zenfone 4 A450cg on pre-order from flipkart now. That thing matches moto g in size.

Asus has heating problems. And from developer's point of view Moto G is way better .

Hang on moto g 2 is coming in market on 5th September those who prefer 5 inch screen wait for it otherwise moto g on discounted price is steal to deal and have belief on Motorola because it had Google tag over it
