That is one true innovation unlock method. Over long usage, power button tends to get loose up. Still , LG update for 4.3/4.4 will always remain mystery. And my guess LG Optimus G probably will stuck at 4.1.2 forever.

Still, we'll see if there will be google edition.

I have a feeling Nexus 5 will be G2 but run AOSP

i used to own an LG windows phone but after that have never really considered another LG phone until this G2. If priced below Rm2k and lesser than S4, i'd consider getting it

FYI, LG malaysia bring in those flagship very late to the market. Take a look at LG Optimus G. It was release like last year, but local availability begins around HTC one release.

Nexus4 by LG take 3month after official to come in to malaysia market.

hence lg lag behind the likes of samsung and even htc in malaysia

They concentrate selling Nexus in Msia.

selling with the lack of advertising on TV.

oh, that's bad. the only way to get it early would be AP set I suppose.

Not to mention, hard to find also. LOL

True, Samsung and Sony are strong in TV Advertising. I think Samsung dominates the most. That's why its selling like hot cake. Not to mention they keep the removable battery and SD card storage extension which LG don't offers.

Speaking of which I never see Sony advertise XZR on tv, instead they focus on XZU.

Yep, I never seen any LG phone at JB now, except those telco.

I only see LG phone in Harvey Norman. LOL...

by the time g2 arrive all the excitement gone

Other phone flagship takes the spotlight especially Samsung, knowing that their tv advertising is super aggressive.

It's a better phone than S4, why do you expect it to be priced lesser?

because LG is less popular in Malaysia. price it the same, i doubt many would be convinced to buy it even if it's supposedly better. even LG TVs are priced lower compared to Samsung for comparable specs

hmm, basing price based on brand awareness, your loss then. G2 does not have "comparable specs" compared to the S4, its out right beating it in every department.

have better spec doesnt mean itll be more expensive than s4. otherwise why wud samsung spend so much on advertising? indirectly they are passing back the advertising cost to you. whereas lg doesnt have such an aggresive marketing strategy, the g2 price as i mentioned in thailand is about 19900 whereas s4 is still selling at rrp now.

I'm not saying it should be priced more expensive, I'm saying the buyer should be more willing to buy even though it may be more expensive. If the buyer know that the product is better, why would he demand for a cheaper price before buying? Just because you know the product does not have brand awareness that is as good as the competitor? If you like the product you shouldn't mind paying more for it. Considering that G2 is a better product, paying a little more wouldn't hurt, would it?
