Super low. What a bargain. Wonder why the price so low for such a high-end phone?

If rumors are accurate, then I think LG has really nailed it. Imagine the M8 sort-of built combined with the potential of the G2 or better. The only problem I find with my G2 is the plastic feel, lackluster camera and sometimes GPS doesn't work well. Other than that, it's better than most Androids out there.

We can't judge too early if the resolution will affect battery, let alone if speakers are placed at the back (not sure where this came from, but sounds pretty ridiculous). Rumors are even going around that the phone will come packed with Snapdragon 805 already.

Hey everyone, I really want to get an LG G2 as well. Is it available at any shops? (haven't seen any) or do we have to buy it online? If online, is there a certain type only that's suitable for msian users, or are all fine? cause i saw someone saying that their maxis sim card can't work or something. Also, if buy online, any recommended dealers who are trustworthy in terms of quality and warranty? THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Bro just refer to V2 of this thread (link below), 2nd post will tell you the trusted stores selling the G2. It's not available in every store because it was never officially launched here.

All our variants is the D802 international one.

I have stopped changing phones. Rugi really teruk teruk. Coz there difference between the newer phones and current gen isn't that drastic anymore hence i don't really feel like changing phones so often unless its very substantial. I don't own all of the phones at one time actually, just swap when i have the budget and so on. Well at the very least i don't own the N5  tongue.gif

I was quite happy with my G2 previously, but that time i wanted to get something with ori warranty, so i sold it and changed to a note 3 i think. somehow despite all the phones i have used, the ones i really liked always will have issues. The G2 was previously quite irritating with the JB firmware hence i didn't keep it for long. I did test it with the Vodafone firmware when KK was new and boy i was fond of it, but 4G was not available as the band is different for their country and ours and the firmware crippled it. But now it's the best phone I can ask for. Doesn't matter if it's an AP set, and the lesson learnt is, i will definitely stay away from HTC and Lenovo and Sony. Reason is after sales is horribly slow. Lenovo center's don't pick up their phones, Sony will take just as long as HTC should a warranty claim arise.

If you want quick services, Samsung is the way to go. Fastest warranty claims i have seen. I have no idea about Asus though. LG, their service i remember years ago, it was pretty slow as well, as in always shortage of parts and etc. But now that we are all getting AP sets for the G2, i doubt it will make any difference, so what the heck. The Xperia Z1 was supposed to be my last phone, but trust me, you will wanna consider before buying a Sony again. Which was why i finally decided to stick back to the G2 even though its not popular. Besides, everyone has a Z1 or Note 3 or S5 wherever you go. Hardly you will see people using the G2. My colleagues dislike the buttons at the back, but it has been the best thing for me ever since they shifted it to the back. No more accidental presses to silent the phone and etc.

Looks like you've been jumping on and off the bandwagon within the Android brands. Why not give WP8 a try? Although their apps are still lackluster, you'll have a different perspective of phones when you've experienced the WP8 OS.

I was a Lumia 920 user for a year before I switched to the G2. The G2 has an awesome battery life, and Android has Disco Zoo, which is probably the only reasons why I'll with the G2 for now (it's also the best android phone in the market imo). But once WP8.1 kicks in, and apps have an equivalent ecosystem as Androids, i'll strongly consider switching back.

i was thinking of it too bro, the last windows phone i touched was the HTC mozart..i think that was wayyyy back before windows phones were actually usable. The most enjoyable windows phone i had was the HTC HD2.. super duper big screen and you can flash whatever you want on to it. After that i dare not try adi coz HTC mozart was running on some really ancient windows platform. Only one thing hindering me from going on a windows phone is, its very difficult to sell off should i want to swap to other phones as i think the demand is still low compared to the android counterparts.

Well that's true. But I think resale value is something very subjective. Even our G2s have no more resale value after the numerous price drops. sad.gif

same case here. GPS will always be irresponsive after a minute or so. Ever since then, I'd use my friends' waze instead.
