Greetings everyone! Being a proud owner of a new LG G2 (on T MO, for the first time), I am shocked at the capabilities and smoothness of this device. I spent many years holding onto Samsung, but have now convincingly cut that cord! Goodbye expandable SD card (don't need it)...goodbye removable battery (this battery is awesome). I am soo sick and tired of the Geek media slamming the new configuration of the power/volume buttons. Either they are the most uncoordinated bafoons using a phone or the most spoiled bunch of crybabies (hey, don't mess with my buttons, this is an industry standard) I have ever seen. LG had the cahoona's to shake up the market, take on Samsung and flatten them in their own back yard! I tip my hat to you LG. As I reach for this phone in my pocket, my finger is already on power button, pull it out, double tap and I am in business. Perform task, double tap, screen off, back in pocket... Shockingly competent! Screaming fast, great camera, no lag and I love an underdog!! Eye candy for these old eyes, and so glad I didn't get a Note 3. Bring on KitKat 4.4 and it's lights out!

I have to disagree on the camera, it takes great pictures in decent light but the focus is often too slow for snapping the kids, and at night the video -especially outdoors in street lighting is a smeary mess, fix those issues and the phone is damn near perfect.

Thank you for the correct spelling, it more clearly states my facts! As for the camera, I guess I'm not as fussy as most. My Canon SD700 with just 6 megapixels still takes incredible photos and my go to device when images count. Yes I carry both, but the convenience of using the G2 to take a quality shot and upload fast far exceeds my expectations.

Thanks, I did know but that requires root which I am holding off for the time being, the official Korean apk will come along soon enough, that said if there's no show by February 1st then I will root and apply the fix :)

Da BALLS!!! LG had the nutsack, the jewels, the boys and the guts not to conform, to step out on a limb (hopefully not fall on their nutsack) to bring a new configuration of da volume and da power button...you would think I live in Chicago but I don't and hate da Bears!
