There are mods out there to enhance the picture quality on Optimus G's camera which works great from what I've seen. Apart from its camera everything is flawless. Again, I'm just concerned about the phone lasting in the long run as I don't keep upgrading and switching my phones.

> In reply to Ahmad Zaib @ 2013-05-15 12:53 from KIfC - click to readI've read reviews on both, and they both have the camera as their biggest weakness. They both make blurry photos a common occurrence, with the LG struggling with photos with strong lighting either behind the subject (it washes out far more than you'd expect) and when there is bright light in the middle of the photo it flares quite badly. The SP just takes average photo's with an optic system you'd call acceptable if you time warped back six years.

It's a shame about these weaknesses as otherwise they would be quite strong candidates for my next phone, I guess I'll likely go for the HTC one. Have you considered the LG Nexus?

Everything about this phone sounds great on paper and even the review videos look great. My ONLY concern is the durability and reliability of this phone. PLEASE, anyone who has used this phone for over 5 months or so kindly tell me how this phone has been handling itself ? How does it perform in the long run ?

Awesome phone, but if you use a MVNO such as straight talk, there is a super annoying problem. EVERYTIME you go to Contacts, it will try to connect to AT&T address book, which never comes up since I am not an AT&T customer. AT&T service cannot fix this, and they said it will have to be rooted to fix it. YOu have to hit the back button each time to override. It is amazing how such an incredible phone can be ruined with a little piece of AT&T bloatware that amazingly can be removed, even with a restore!

Simply goto your nearest AT&T store. BUY this. Settle in for a relaxing evening or two learning your newest toy. Be aware, thus easily replaces the desktop. Far faster, more complete. Portable.

It is sad the company LG electronics has no option of feedback on its website. It is unapproachable for customer suggestions sic !
Lg has introduced model G LS 970 (68.9 mms )in India which is a tad narrower than E 970(71.6 mms ) wide. Although the lg electronics website lists the name of Optimus G in India a E970 68.9.6 mms wide the truth is that this is Lg Optimus G LS 970 and not E 970. It is sad Lg thinks that it can take indians for a ride. 2.8 inch wide phone is better than 2.6 or 2.7.inches. Sonyh Xperia Z and Samsung Galaxy SIV are 2.8 inch wide.

I have the Optimus G E970 AT&T (unlocked) and I am quite loving it. It's super light and super fast, makes it super duper awesome. But one thing that annoys me is the 8MP camera... WHY DID AT&T WENT FOR THE 8MP?!?! Sprint version has 13MP, international version also has 13MP... What is up with AT&T? Why just 8MP?? WHY AT&T? WHY?!!
