Considering going to a G5?

[sydneycooper1979]

What do you guys think of the G5? Now that it's out, do you think you will switch? Thoughts?

I do like the idea that they eased up on the corners. That was one thing I didn't like about the G4.

Sounds intriguing, but I don't intend to upgrade anytime soon. I noticed one of the special modules you can get with it has Hi-Fi audio jacks. I hope they didn't do away with a standard jack without needing the module (I think it's rumored the next iPhone will do so). I use it all the time to feed my work truck's stereo, so it's a big deal for me to have one.

No...I don't think any phone will have a "must have" so I ditch the G4.

Actually the smaller Samsung is really tugging at my strings, don't like the sealed battery but I just can't stand these bigger phones.

The camera enhancements (wide angle and the dedicated module) have me interested.

I've had a G2, G3, and G4 but after today I'm buying an S7 Edge.

 

[HaboobZ]

Nah. Phone doesn't look very sexy nor seem to offer anything more than the G4 (for me).

Probably will stick with the G4 for another year or two. Then we'll see where LG/Android and Apple are at and I'll go from there.

I am currently using a G3... I will upgrade to a G4 next year. Not interested in the G5. I like the buttons in the back.

I, at least, need to give LG credit for trying new things, but the G5 holds little interest for me.

Granted, I've only had the G4 for a few months, so I'm not really looking. If I were, though, it wouldn't be at the G5.

 

[RapidTurtle]

I'm actually satisfied enough with the G4, that I'd like to stick with it until the G6..

 

[jhilker]

I'm pretty happy with my G4. Can't imagine needing to update for the next couple of years.

 

[kraze4u]

Buy it unlocked and off contract, you'll get a great deal.

 

[nickdaman]

Yep no interest in the G5 and I'll be keeping my G4 till it breaks. Maybe the leather backs will come down in price some I really don't care much for the brown leather back. A black leather back is so much cleaner.

I like that the back is mostly flat as I hate how my G4 rocks back and forth when I'm attempting to use it while it is sitting on my desk. I do not like that they made an overly large phone even longer. I'll pass. My next phone is going to be smaller than my G4.

 

[Even4steven]

The G5 is forward thinking , and a brave direction. Wondering the price of the "Friends" will be. Smaller battery will probably keep me from upgrading,

 

[JayWill]

Nope. Neat ideas but not enough to get me to upgrade. Actually, carrier devices have begun to sour on me. If I upgrade to a new device this year it'll probably be the Nexus if they manage to hit another home run with the hardware.

The lack of hot-swappability of the modules would be a deal breaker for me. I love the back volume buttons but would be willing to deal with losing that. The modules sound interesting but having to go through a reboot (however fast, it would still be an interruption) each time would get old in a hurry.

 

[mxmarcus]

No, I can't stand late or no update

 

[brutos08]

My next phone will be an Nexus am currently looking to buy the nexus 6p. G5 for me is a step back am sure others will like it but the modules is not my thing
