It seems to me LG got infected with an STD a long time ago and hasn't bothered to go and get that checked out. This STD is the crap battery syndrome. Another great looking phone with excellent performance and a few useful tricks up it's sleeve, but... garbage battery life. Dammit LG, would you pleas stop with that BS already?! This is the reason I'll never get an LG phone, not unless they fix this troubling issue and fix it for good.

As usual!! mixture of Samsung products!! looks similar to Samsung Infuse 4G (body) and Galaxy series!!!! why don't they ever come up with their own creativity??????????? Disappointed....... :(

why don't GSMArena ever compare with Asus products, padfone 2 is also a snapdragon qualcomm product, same chip and much more likely to give a fight to Optimus G

mouthwatering specs..
love the Full HD screen, bigger ram, s4 procc & brand new gpu.

unfortunately, 2100 mah unremovable battery & no microsd in a big NO for me. Coupled with no JB out of box.

shall wait & see what Sony & HTC are going to release before committing to Note2.

my first smartphone was lg optimus black it was a great phone very nice screen but at that time it was running on 2.3 and every one is on 2.4 or higher and lg promised to bring an upgrade but some months has passed and no definite date of the promised upgrade so i decided to ditch the phone it was a annoying exp for me as i can see samsung and htc have always up to date upgrade compared to lg and see this lg optimus g suferring the same problem a very delayed upgrade if you are buying this phone you will get stuck to ics for a while
