The US gets the phone and a battery.

Asia gets multiple batteries and/or a headset.

Boo!

I'm pretty sure LG doesn't care about the American market. They'll give us the phone and that's it. Can't even buy accessories from from.

LG gave away an extra battery and charger with the G3 but only as a limited time promotion.

Since I was able to get one of these extra batteries, does anyone know of the battery from the G3 will fit the G4?

It won't because of the 2 little "feet" on the bottom of the G3 battery

More like the carriers know they have the American market's balls in a vice grip and can do whatever they want, corner-cutting-wise.

Would be so baller if the 2nd battery and charging module came with all G4 across the globe.

It would also be baller if AT&T doesn't go with pma charging instead of Qi charging like they did with the G3.

But my bigger point is that while most of us in the US understand here in this forum, most casuals won't know that when they buy a phone from a carrier that they are buying a product that the carriers ordered and are willing to pay for and are not concerned with our needs.

They would much rather charge extra for a charger or charging back because they don't make a whole lot for just the phone. This is why in the US we normally don't get a bundled package like some in Europe and elsewhere.

I remember speaking with a at&t store Rep years ago about how they make commission off the sale of accessories like batteries and cases etc.

Money makin' American carriers can't have free anything included with the phones lol

I am in Asia now. Not sure what additional accessories there are, but an s6e costs roughly $920 usd. The Verizon s6e runs $700. I would rather save $220 over an extra battery and headset...
