What device out there hasn't had some type of issue at release...?Shouldn't have to do that with a finished product. That make the OPO lose outright to me on just the one point.

Ive had the G3 since release and my OPO should be arriving today. I've recently gotten obsessed with the 5.5" screen size and couldn't wait for the G3 because to be released. Unfortunately, I have connectivity issues where I stop receiving data when not on wifi and I have to airplane mode it every few days, it can be pretty laggy with that processor pushing all of those pixels and I want a more vanilla Android experience. Ill chime back in later tonight with a quick comparison.
I had the G3 at launch and while I liked it there were some things I just could not get past. I paid full retail of $624 for the device. I feel the QHD screen while razor sharp was dull and hampered battery life and cause heat. The bloatware and carrier IQ just added too much that I did not want to deal with. I had a friend offer me an OPO invite but I refused to get the Z2 which I loved, but Sony updates every 6 months and the glass back scared me.
I then did get the invite and ordered the OPO. All I can say is wow. I received it one week ago today (8/20) with a build date of 8/7/14. No yellow tint and it just flies! Two updates were waiting and got 33R Thursday night. While it is not perfect, it is a great device and I really enjoy it. Glad I have the OPO instead of a G3. Best 364 I ever spent!

Do you feel the One will be better than the Note 4?I had the G3 at launch and while I liked it there were some things I just could not get past. I paid full retail of $624 for the device.

My plan is to get the Note 4, but I would like to try the One.No. I think the Note 4 will be the powerhouse of the year. I love the Note series and had Note 1 & 2 but I felt like it was getting too large...then I got a OPO! LOL! If you like the size and the S Pen, I think the Notes are the best device going!
My OPO should be here Tuesday. Will decide by Friday on what to do. The G3. Works great but has some issues. Carrier bloat is my biggest. Coming from the N4 I got spoiled. Not ruling out the next Nexud or Motorola either.

Dont buy the Note 4 if you care about bloat!
Posted via my 1+ or the G3.
And the Motorola will be $500. Not bad. I am selling my G3, buying the Motorola (unlocked no bloat version) in Burgundy or black leather. And be done. Love this phone, but a truly one of a kind device is very tempting. I wish the camera was a little better on this. So far in my two days it is just OK. The camera on the G3 on the other hand awesome.

So far the camera looks pretty good. That's the one thing that isn't so great on the OPO. The G3 blows it away.
