I'm getting antsy. They just announced the launch for Australia for March 28. I'm hoping maybe today we will hear about US? The rumor is April 7, and that's one month from today.
LG is notoriously slow with launches. LG V20 was 2 months for US.
Yes, but you'd think they want to get this baby out before the S8 hits.
I really don't see what difference it makes. If someone is interested in both phones they will wait and compare. Only if someone's phone breaks and they have to buy ASAP will it really matter.Yep as said they're really slow when it comes to launches for the US.
If LG doesn't announce soon for US, it will lose any momentum it has gained with early reviews. In a little over 2 weeks, Samsung will officially announce the S8, and we will be lucky to see any more press or reviews on the G6 after that.
The S8 is as good as announced right now, anyone thinking about the G6 knows the S8 is an option. I doubt a months difference in release dates will give the G6 a boost.If LG doesn't announce soon for US, it will lose any momentum it has gained with early reviews.

Same here.. When they announced the V20 I was super stoked and was an instant buy if they had released immediately or a week or two after announcement. They didn't and released like 2 months or later something like that? By then had got the pixel XL, iPhone 7 plus and already moved on from the V20. They lost a sale from me as well because of the delay.Depends on a person to person basis. I was super psyched for the V20 but the Pixel came out and got my attention .. LG lost that sale.
Great but what features does the G6 have to get excited about? I am not trying to be argue, I just don't see anything new or exciting about the G6. While the S8 has not been announced it might as well have been, the leaks are all over the Android news sites.Same here..

We people here don't need new features to get excited about, we get excited about anything new and shiny. The more it delays the shine wears off. That's how it is for me personally at least.Great but what features does the G6 have to get excited about? I am not trying to be argue, I just don't see anything new or exciting about the G6.

Great, so you don't like the G6. You've indicated that repeatedly in every post. So why are you still hanging around this forum? So you can stir the pot in every thread? I'm just curious. I really don't care but you seem hell bent to bad mouth the G6 in every post.Great but what features does the G6 have to get excited about?

There's really nothing new about the S8 either. Tall phone, smaller battery than the S7 edge, in the S8 variant at least and maybe in the S8+, (which makes no sense) waterproofing, fingerprint sensor on the back, wireless charging. Not much innovation. The G6 actually competes on paper other than an AMOLED screen.
By the time 5G network gets widely deployed which may be couple of years later, people would have moved on from the G6 to next. Its not like 5G network is ready and waiting.The S8 has the 835 chip which would allow it work on 5G networks, if of course, we had 5G networks.
Because it is an open forum that allows all to play. Plus I have been asking the same question that was finally answered. No new features, just a new phone. I think everyone here underestimate the average phone buyer. The first questions many when looking at a new phone they will ask is what is new and why it's better than the competition.Great, so you don't like the G6.

And what's so great about the S8? The fact that it has an unproven (but hopefully great) SoC? That it has an even taller display at 18.5:9 than the G6?
