Why Should I Trade My G2 for a G3?

The test at Anandtech indicates a processor which might produce, at most, a device 6% faster than G2.
QHD is pretty slick, but it might use significantly more battery life and right now there are not many files that would take advantage of 2K.
Things like heart-rate monitor really don't interest me.
Removable SD storage was something that, at one time, I thought I could not live without. I have learned to rotate the music files each month or so and now that isn't a big issue. But cloud storage and things like Google Listen are almost useless to me.
I live in a rural area that still does not have Sprint Suck (sorry, meant Spark) LTE. I subsist on 3G when not using WIfi. On a related note Sprint has announced it will start throttling the top 5% data users in congested areas. I use 10G per month if I don't make a point of downloading my podcasts over wifi. I guess I'll get throttled. I can't even stream Pandora.
If I get the G2 I will have to pay for it. My G2 is paid for and any sale value will be rather low when people start trading off for G3.
So G3 is not for me. I like my G2. Put this phone on a decent network and I'll bet you really got something.

No one that has a g2 should get a g3 in my opinion. Just minor upgrades that really aren't much

People that want the g3 should get it if they want the new camera and the screen. Otherwise the g2 is amazing. I see upgrades as this, if you have the g2 stay with the even number releases such as the g4 and so on. That way itll be an awesome upgrade and not just an incremental one

If that speaker on the back is as good as I think it's gonna be, that alone would make me want it. Only thing that bothers me about g2 is the speaker placement and volume level.
