Trying to decide. S5 or lg g3.

For the love of God, go with the S5! I had the G3 for a few months and finally had to use my T-Mobile JUMP option to trade it in for the S5. Granted, the Galaxy is more of a battery hog, but I had it up TO HERE with the overheating issues on the G3. The damn thing would overheat every time it updated any apps, and even sometimes at night when it was just sitting there, making my alarm clock really unreliable. The bigger screen is just not worth it if every few minutes the phone overheats and turns off for no apparent reason.

Let me reiterate... it wouldn't overheat when I was watching videos or doing anything that affected the battery a lot. It just did it for NO REASON. I did have enough sense to check my battery to see if I had a rogue app that was draining it too much, and I didn't find anything. I also used the power save option and dimmed my screen all to no avail.

In addition to that, the keyboard on the G3 is a real POS. Even if you type a word correctly, it auto corrects to another word! So stupid! I'm much much happier with the S5.

You arguably went with the better machine. Be happy.
