Call me, or BestBuy, crazy but on their website they are stating that the Sprint model does indeed have an SD card slot...

LG G2 Mobile Phone LGLS980WTK - Best Buy

I know everyone has said that there will not be an SD, just wanted to point out a little glimmer of hope...

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but the only version that has an SD card is the South Korean version which will not work here. The flip side is that this will have a bigger battery and 32 gb
 
i had the South Korean version LG G2 and IT did work here fine on T-Mobile (HSPA+ speeds) but i returned it because i could not load american knock off brand TV's on the quick remote, and Q Voice was only in Korean, and too many non-removable ap icons in Korean language, PLUS while it WAS UNlocked, it still had ties to the Korean KT Telecom Carrier (branding, apps, etc)... Plus with the 2600 mAh battery, it wasn't the greatest battery life, BUT in ts defense, i think it was searching 24/7 for the Korean LTE network it could never find... Cost $749.00 to boot...Much happier with my $99.00 down Tmobile version, unlimited LTE, etc...

Well girl, I stand corrected. My understanding was different but you obviously have first hand experience. Thats very interesting. I think I will also be much happier with the bigger battery.
 
i agree! The 400 more mAh made a world of difference in my use, (plus i think maybe having a internal battery is better optimized, might just be my way of thinking, but it feels wayyyyy longer usage to me....

I was worried i'd be making a mistake returning the Korean version even with its "little niggles" but from the second i opened the box, i saw how well LG did with T-Mo's version, and it turned out SD Card slots and removable batteries are nowhere near "the big deal" i thought they were! ... I usually always go for int'l versions of phones, but the LG G2 is sooooo great, even running on a US Carrier can't slow it down or jack w/ the experience LG intended us to have!

The battery is insane on this thing. I really loved my HTC One, but glad I gave it up for the G2. Its a beast.
 
wow i need to frame your post and maybe even dip it in solid gold. you may be the FIRST person i ever came across who preferred a device over the HTC One...lol

Gosh I so wish that were true. As it is, I've already been readying myself for my first phone without an SD card. And they come back and tease me with this? Yeah right... Not nice BB... Not nice.

It was a tough call. I really did love the HTC One, but I fell in love with the G2 when I demoed it in store. G2 was the only phone I would have given up the HTC One for.

Why did you choose the LG G2 over the HTC One. These are the two phones I am at a toss up with Sprint. Really like the sound and photos I've seen from the HTC One, but the bigger screen and processor has me on the G2 because it might stand longer.

Yeah, the 5.2 inch screen and Snapdragon 800 were the major factors. And while I did love the Boomsound speakers on the HTC One. I really love the simplistic design of the G2, especially the small bezel. And I'm a big fan of the rear buttons after getting use to them(took about a week). And I will say this, the battery on the G2 is a flat out beast. It destroys the battery in the HTC One, I get through a whole day without worries now on my G2. The HTC One took great pictures for sure, but the G2 is at worst even with the One on this front if not better also. The Knock On feature is killer imo...I love it. Like I said, the HTC One is my second favorite phone out right now....I really loved it. But the G2 is just that good.
