Despite the differences in signal strength suggested by the above figures, radio signal is not a problem for me with the G3 specimen that I have, on my network (3 UK, advanced 3G signal where I am), and in my location.
Regarding the display: it's obviously of the highest quality by virtue of the pixels but not really very noticeably sharper than the 1080p Nexus 5....but then the N5 display sharpness is superb in the first place. Colour saturation is a tad higher than the N5, and does not show the latter's yellowish tinge....or rather, that of my particular 4-month-old specimen. Photos taken on my Lumia 1020 and transferred via OneDrive to the N5 and G3, when viewed side-by-side on the latter two at about the same brightness, look about the same apart from the N5's yellowish tinge....though both phones show the photos noticeably sharper than when viewed on the 720p Pentile OLED of the 1020.
I find I need to set the G3 to a higher brightness setting than the N5, to get the same comfortable viewing.
The 1440p display comes into its own when viewing the two 4K videos that come installed in Gallery.
I do not as yet feel qualified to comment on another concern of users, battery life. Perhaps I'll add some comments after a few days.
My own impression so far is that this is a wonderful, wonderful phone and I thank the LG company for producing it, and indeed the scarcely-inferior Nexus 5....both of them life-enriching devices of very high quality. Possible signal and battery problems for some users aside, I don't think anyone buying this phone would be likely to regret it, especially at the price being asked compared to other high-end devices.
