What happen with the Optimus G Pro?
What convinced you to get the Galaxy S 4?

The OG Pro is an awesome device and I really wanted a 5.5" phone, loved the screen it was super sharp, bright and clear. But, the bright part was due to the 100% brightness being set and when I put it into auto brightness and set it to say 50% it was too dark for me. I was concerned about having to keep it on 100% brightness all the time and the toll on battery life. Then of course ATT announced the S4 32GB was to be released at the same time and that was really my originally planned phone so it was time well spent at the ATT store comparing the two, actually playing with both UI/UX and getting a feel for them.
Ultimately I made the choice to get the S4 and a GN10.1 (for $175) so I got what I wanted as a really sweet deal but I signed contracts to do it which I was not planning on doing. But for once I am going to force myself to actually live with a device for a while, at least a year since I do have an upgrade available on another line.
I do see LG as a serious competitor to Samsung and it will not take them long to be on an even playing field design, performance and spec wise. The OG2 which is rumored is starting to look solid and I suspect LG will learn even more from what Samsung does with the GN3 in the fall. It will forever be a cat and mouse game, but LG is the one to watch.
