As mentioned, my main reason for getting this phone was that I was coming from a Note 3 and it was just a little big.
Just could not get comfortable with the size, aside from that it was one of the best phones I've ever owned.
The G3 appeared to be the best lateral move but in a better package (size). Still had the large screen but was manageable in the hands (and pocket).
That being said, the wow factor of the G3 is all in the size and design for me. Perfect ergonomics, one hand capable and simply a nice looking phone (maybe the best looking phone out there). That's where the wow ends.... The QHD is ahead of it's time and seems to be more gimmick or attention grabber than anything else (bragging rights maybe?). Considering the negatives associated with it, almost seems like a waste to have gone that route when 1080p would have been just fine. As far as fluidity, we've seen there are plenty of conversations regarding this but when there are numerous threads here and other forums regarding "how to eliminate the lag" (example:
[MOD] Without ROOT get rid of LAG on G3!!! | LG G3 | XDA Forum)....where there's smoke there's fire.
I think the QHD screen is the root of any problems that people are having (lag, overheating, etc.). LG could be sitting on top of the heap with the best phone...period...if they would have done one of two things; use a 1080p screen or waited and put in an 805 processor. The QHD is a power hog and some people are paying for that.
The good news, all of these phones are fast enough...I can live with a millisecond difference.
The G3 does most everything well, the Note 3 simply does everything well (except it's size and design, just ugly). The trade off is worth it and I am happy with G3.
It's funny when you look at all of the Flagship phones available right now, each one has there faults.
Strange they can't come up with one phone that does everything right (but then what we would talk about on the forums....)
