[G2 General] abhinav.tella:
I just switched to T-Mobile. I was stuck between the Nexus 6 and the Z3, the Z3 looks better but Moto generally has better cell reception in general. I like big phones but 5.92 is a bit too much. After they announced that it had AMOLED I decided to get the Z3 instead, I have seen my share of screen burn already. Other than that I'm sure it will still be a good phone but I cannot see how it can compete against the Note 4, which has a better feature set and not to nention the stylus as well. Then again Nexus has always been a niche product line, good for developers especially without the bloatware and has updates before others.

As the person above said, the G2 is the best phone I have owned as well, they sold out on T-Mobile so I went to Sony Xperia Z3, I dont think the LG G3 looks as nice as the G2 and has worse battery life thanks to its QHD display.
[G2 General] imrf:
The G2 is an ok phone, far from the best or anything like that. My main complaint is that is gets hot as hell for no reason. I plan on getting the Nexus 6. I can't stand the locked bootloader and lack of decent ROMs for the G2 or the fight to get them on the damn thing.
[G2 General] player911:
N6 isn't even an option for us Verizon guys. Plus 6" is too big. I picked the G2 over the Note line because of the size. I really love the G2. I haven't even flashed a custom rom on it yet. It just works so good.

The new Nexus line looks amazing but very pricey. I like how the N9 intro video says its a perfectly sized display at 4:3, when Android was the anti-4:3. It really looks like a iPad 2 with Android.
[G2 General] RohanM:
MOTO, HTC & today Sony announced which of their devices will be updated to L .. Sony is going to update whole Z series.. wow

Why LG is still silent man..
[G2 General] Ace42:
Mine doesn't get "hot as hell", temp is usually between 40-5x °C according to trickster mod. And sometimes quality beats quantity, AICP is superb, it's definitely my favorite aosp ROM. There's obviously mahdi, vanir, multiple G3 ports, and CM.

[G2 General] Lawlrus:
Glad I stuck with Verizon. I'll gladly sign up another two years for a discount on the nexus 6.

Not that I dislike my g2, but the screen damage issues (even though I've never had it and I've had this phone since last October) and the fact that the device is so damn finicky to developers, put a sour taste in my mouth for it.

We have some really awesome devs working on this phone for us. But no device compares to googles flasgships, its like a magnet for them because of getting test builds and whatever else. Plus its going to be a moto? Sign me up.

Only reason I'm not on a nexus 5 is because Verizon **** the bed with that deal. They better not screw it up again.

---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 PM ----------

Isn't an option? Might want to do some more research.
[G2 General] Project:Frankenphone:
It really depends on the user. I personally will never be able to fit the N6 in my pockets without constantly worrying that it will bend cause I have a N4 with a Ballistics Gel Series Case and that just fits.

Screen bigger than N4 is pointless and a smaller screen isn't good for the eyes
[G2 General] Lawlrus:
Take off your girlfriends jeans haha
[G2 General] Project:Frankenphone:
lol, i will give you this one but i was with your girl last night.
[G2 General] staticx57:
Anyone going N6 better not count on the camera being decent.

http://phandroid.com/2014/10/16/nexus-6-camera-samples-size-comparison-iphone-6-plus/

TLDR: it's worse than the g2
[G2 General] JamieD81:
Good thing were buying a PHONE and not a CAMERA..... Don't EVER buy a phone and expect to get good pictures, every single phone that has ever been released has sub-par picture quality, can't expect much from such small sensors.
[G2 General] staticx57:
That's what this thing is? I might as well take over my camera and uninstall anything BUT SMS and phone because that's what this is. Everything else on it is contrary to this. This will surely remind me to carry around my DSLR all the time.

You're right, I should set my expectations... I find it normal to have a *phone* that is worse than a year+ old model. Makes sense.
[G2 General] JamieD81:
Hold on let me take a SELFIE!!!!!!........... :\

If you are using a phone to take all your pictures and want quality pictures you are going to have a bad day.

G2 Camera is no good so comparing to that isn't saying much.
[G2 General] staticx57:
Of course I don't use my g2 to take all my pictures. But it isn't unreasonable to ask for an improvement instead of a regression over a year old device.
[G2 General] JamieD81:
Wasn't one of the biggest complaints about the N5 the camera? surely they improved over last years Nexus right? rather then trying to improve over phones it has nothing to do with....
[G2 General] staticx57:
1)I've seen N5 owners not impressed with the N6 2) The N5 is half the price 3)The N5 isn't the only phone that the 6 competes against 4) There are other reasons that the N6 isn't impressive
[G2 General] JamieD81:
1 - I've seen barely anyone NOT impressed by it, more people are just upset Google went back to premium rather then cheap and don't forget the ones with little tiny hands complaining.

2 - Nexus phones were not always cheap phones, in fact only 2 of the 6 were cheap phones, the rest were 550$+

3 - The N5 is the main phone you look at to see the new changes in the N6, just like you would compare the G2 to the G3, Note 3 to the Note 4, the S4 to the S5 ect..

4 - There are plenty of reasons every phone isn't impressive that is why Android will always rule over Apple because we have the choice to pick whatever phone match's our desires.
[G2 General] staticx57:
So if I compare the N6 to the N5 I can use the N5's price as a justification for its also sub par for a smartphone camera. But if I use your point that the N5 and N4 as outliers and instead compare the N6 to the rest of the flagships it still performs poorly. Which one do you want me to compare the N6 to, other 2014 flagships or the N5?
[G2 General] JamieD81:
HAHAHA. Thanks for proving this conversation was a complete waste of time for me and anyone reading it.

Explain to me exactly how the N6 performs poorly against other flagships, did you magically get a hold of a Nexus 6? because no one has seen a comparison of the phone with other phones yet, and judging off of 1 persons photos is a pretty poor reason to say it doesn't compare. :)
[G2 General] staticx57:
If these photos are NOT from an N6 then the point is moot, but if these photos ARE from the N6 but when you get the N6 and you show me that these are the worst samples ever then I will buy the N6 that very day.
[G2 General] JamieD81:
If your engine failed in your car and you had to have it rebuilt, would you take it to the first guy that gave you a quote? NO because that is just stupid.

Then why would you judge a phone from 1 person's pictures that could very well have been from a pre-production N6 or were just no good at taking a "decent" picture from a phone, or I might be wrong all together and the N6 just isn't a camera. hahahaha :)

I see stunning pictures from N5's from a few people yet see absolute garbage from others, Not all parts are made equal and not all owners are made equal.
[G2 General] staticx57:
I have no doubt that people will take excellent pictures with an N6 but it will be in spite of the N6 not because of it. I have seen some great pictures taken with old flip phones, doesn't mean that I want to be carrying one around.

As for your car reference, of course I would shop around but I would also have a reasonable expectation for what that engine will produce as there are other examples of similar engines. In this case Motorola has historically not produced one smartphone camera that was not bottom of the pack. Tell the 2014 Moto X has the exact same sensor as the G2 and it looks like crap compared. If the N6 does have let's say a flagship competitive camera it will surely be a first for Moto. In this case the N6 has the same sensor as the OnePlus One but performs worse (subjectively of course).
[G2 General] metteduch:
6" and its pretty damn thick!! G2 is 8,9mm thick (which isnt exactly thin!!), N6 is 10,1mm -,-

Sent from my LG-D802
[G2 General] xdadevet:
It already works with ART(but that version is not yet available for download). But the developer (rovo68 if I'm correct) is strict on only having quality releases, and said with each Developer preview of Android 5 ART has made drastic leaps, and Xposed needs to be adjusted again. So he said that he won't release an ART compatible version until about two weeks after the official release to make sure that everything works properly. He also said that he is not sure that he will release and maintain a version which works with the ART on KitKat but will definitly release and maintain Xposed for Android 5.
[G2 General] albsat:
I will wait for a hands on review before judging this nexus 6.
[G2 General] Bataga:
Maybe it came done to the decision to use such a "poor quality" camera to keep the cost down. At this price point, I would rather have a good phone/camera than a good camera/phone.
[G2 General] Big4570:
I'm really more excited about the note 4 then anything else. It may just give me enough of a reason to upgrade and push my G2 back to back up/on the job phone.
[G2 General] joedajoester:
Is the preview that was released today essentially the finished built, just not the ota build? Does it mean that a developer can start porting this? Also, anyone think we will see a build before december? Im willing to bet on it
[G2 General] heithered:
Preview? That comes before the real thing.. just wait a little more.
[G2 General] Janine Belle:
Nexus 6 seems like an excellent phone. But Google forgets what customers want. Nobody wants QHD or a 2.7 GHz quad-core processor. When you ask people everything customers are interested in is longer battery life, good camera and secondary clean software. The battery of the nexus 6 is as big as the one from the lg g2, while having a larger and higher resoluted screen, resulting in a much smaller battery life. Nexus 5 is very good with two huge flaws like the nexus 4: battery life and camera are crappy. Our lg g2 has a better camera and battery life than the nexus 5 but fails when it comes to software. Bloated LG :( not a single aosp rom available with a qualitative camera :'(
[G2 General] Lawlrus:
G2 has a 3000mah battery. Nexus 6 has 3220mah
[G2 General] Swetnes:
And so? Just because you get a larger tank doesn't mean you will get more miles. 6" UHD screen & higher clocked cpu means more power. More power means less battery life. The battery is only 6.8% larger, the cpu alone will use up that difference....plus the screen. That is why the G3 has lower battery life than the G2 and it's battery is bigger than the N6.
[G2 General] Lawlrus:
Just stating that saying it has the same size battery is not true.

I don't tinfoil hat things like this. Will it have less battery life? Sure. Do I want to try to crunch the numbers to see exactly how much? Nope, because I don't need a phone to last me eight hours on screen with two days off charge.

If you need that before you get a chance to charge your phone, I don't know what to tell you.
[G2 General] coolcfan:
Well I think everyone SHOULD compare the phone he's looking at with the phone he owns, instead of judging by comparing the phone with its predecessor.

But it's true that we shouldn't judge by so little info.

But to me, who changes phones every 3 years or more, or until it's broken, I'm pretty sure the new phone will be much better @ every aspect[emoji1]

[Sprint LG G3] EVOKeith:
I am assuming we will see this on the LG G3 evetually.

Stuff is in here
[Sprint LG G3] Netstalker2009:
HA!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Only if the devs decide that the LG G3 is worthy. Let me explain. I just got off the phone with LG and they said they don't support any software (Android) for their phones. They said to call my carrier to find out if there are updates. I asked them about newer versions of Android and they said I would need to talk to the carrier. So I am going to call the carrier and I almost bet that they will say I need to talk to LG. I am calling Sprint now to find out if that is true.
[Sprint LG G3] bmtdan:
The G3 will get 5.0 don't be ridiculous. Full source for 5.0 isn't even out yet and you're already calling LG and Sprint.

How a member since 2010 could not know this blows my mind.

You're doing nothing but wasting your own time.
[Sprint LG G3] Netstalker2009:
First of all I did not call them to find out when they were going to upgrade to 5.0, I am not an idiot. The reason I called is because, since I have owned this device I have not received one update for this phone. I also red in an article that the LG G3 was supposed to get a 4.4.4 update by the end of September.

http://www.androidsas.com/2014/09/lg-g3-to-get-android-444-kitkat-update.html

So while I was on the phone with LG customer service they proceeded to pass the buck to Sprint and Google as if they are not the ones who deal with their own Android updates.
[Sprint LG G3] MBCO:
A provider or MFG will not randomly give out information regarding updates. Don't be naive.

Samsung's L version is already in the works and been leaked. LG is obviously developing it's version. I would imagine it will be released by the end of the year. Sprint is usually pretty good at pushing updates to the current year's flagships.
[Sprint LG G3] pbedard:
Never knowing LGS update track record
[Sprint LG G3] robber:
Stumped and bumped, screw sprint and LG!
[Sprint LG G3] jkcarp94:
All of that aside, the idea that any front-line support staff from any company is going to have that kind of detailed information from the developers and engineering is just ludicrous. Frontline techs know exactly what is written in their scripts on the computer and nothing more. Why would you even waste time asking them that?
[Sprint LG G3] ItsLasher:
Just a heads up. The customer service rep from LG was just blowing smoke up your ass either because they didn't know or you came across like an ass and they wanted you off the phone.

The way it works is as follows:

Google makes the OS and sends it to the manufactures (LG, Samsung, HTC) where they tweak it for their devices and put in any overlays (Touchwiz, Blur, Sense) before sending it to the carrier. The carrier then tests said OS\devices on their netywork while adding their own bloatware.

IF everything tests with in their liking they will release to the public IF NOT then it goes back to the manufacturer for more tweaking. Wash rinse repeat until you get it.

You can call Sprint and LG support all you like and will likely get different answers depending on who you talk to BUT regardless of who you speak with none of them have a clue at the call center of what is happening when.

Their job is to read a script and do a profile update or whatever is all and then pass it along if they can't get you off the line.

Welcome to smart phones and carriers 101.
[Sprint LG G3] Mahapederdon:
The only reason I want LG and Sprint to have an l version someday is we will have a decent build for the devs to take apart. I'm sure there gonna take there time.
