deeboy, 25 Feb 2013Well the 4x is just good, but when compared to the optG OR F7 it is slightly lacking. Battery ... morethat the optimus g is etter is no surprice but thats to see in the price.
what does surprise me however is you daring to say that the F7 is better while its release is atleast 4 months away and its a dual core rather then a quad core so its not even in the same league.
as for your HDR almost all phones have it the 4x hd had it also (and it actualy works quite nice).
and theres is nothing wrong with the tegra 3 they just should have made it on 28NM rather then 40NM so people stop crying about its heat and it would have bin slightly more energy efficient.
but even so the general battery preformance of the 4x hd with the tegra 3 is on par with almost all other quad cores.
the optimus g is barely faster had no replaceble battery and just doesnt justify they massive price.
and no the F7 does not have more potential its a dual core.
who gives a crap it has 2gb ram its way overkill i have 550 mb ram free on my 4x hd...
if you dont want a hot feeling phone dont buy a quad core phone and game with it they are NOT made for gaming just just have the option to do so.
e ferrari engine also gets hot enough to boil eggs on it if you race it on a cirquit but if you drive 120 on the highway it ont get hot at all.
and i can already tel you there is only 1 thing that the F7 will be better at then the 4x hd and that is downloading file as it has 4G support and the lg does not other then that it has no benefits over the 4x hd.
that doesnt make it a bad phone in fact i like it if they get the price right.
280 euro at release and a quick drop with 30 euros makes it a really interesting deal but anything more and your in the price of the 4x hd and your just stupid to buy the F7.
how long it lasts in real world use is yet to be seen it might be longer it might not be at all its impossible to tell right now bigger batterys dont mean a thing.
cores are most power efficient at low MHZ so a dual core is gonna spend more time on higher mhz for the same task consuming more power. on top of that 4g does drain more battery.
so lets wait 5 months till we have aosme solid reviews until then you cannot say the F7 is better it might have horrid flaws well never know.

Lol its strange how people say anew phone isbetter then old one, even if a new phone has a weaker procesor dousnt meen it will be slower and i dont think more then a doul core is needed but heck new samsung phones will be 6 or 8 cores .....see for ur selfs on youtube

AnonD-106365, 24 Feb 2013aahh cool so im still confused what to buy actualy after seeing the new enhanced features of g... moreWell the 4x is just good, but when compared to the optG OR F7 it is slightly lacking. Battery backup is pretty slim. "I like good smartphones with good batterylife". Moreover Tegra's soc re mildly annoying and users have been casting abuses here n there over its poor performance except as regards games. I want a (versatile)soc
that has general compatibility with various apps&games not as selective as the tegra soc.
The optimus f7 looks promising. It seems it's going to offer just my/consumers proper needs with its 2,540mah battery, decent8mp point n shoot camera much de same with de flagship4x. And on top of that it offers hdr mode, without sacrificing an enhanced 2gig ram and snappy processing speed.
The opt.G inlike manner is a top rider here With greatly enhanced features like 2gigs ram blah blah blah.
Further adding all the latest tweaks that came wit lg's newest skin.
My conclusions, go for optG if u can squeeze out some real bucks, surely u won't be let down.
But myself i trust the f7 is just de perfect one for me.
I hear pple ranting here n there "it's not a flagship device lik the 4x, for crying out loud the f7 has more potential future benefits than this 4x. I don't need a highend but futureless smartphone.
I don't bloody need a highend but hotfeeling phone.
I don't need a flagship device with slim volume.
As a result, I'm nonetheless waitin for the hands on review of the f7. Hopeful it'll give the 4x a run in various aspects...

AnonD-106430, 25 Feb 2013which is the best browser for surfing?
thanks in advance.frankly none of them are perfect.
the stock browser sucks up battery due to background stuff.
opera mini is nice but it doesnt support some contend.
chrome is really fast but does not support flach wich makes some contend unavailble.
so there is no best browser your better of having several installed.
this is a part of android software tat demands fixes as its no acceptable to have unsupported contend in your browser.
personaly i use chrome because it feels best and you can just slide to other tabs real easy.

it makes no sense not putting it on a higher end phone.
ad for root im not sure what lgs look on thatis we might get it verry easy as they dont change a thing or they might go nuts on trying to secure it.
lets hope they dontbother with securing it :)
so if there will or will not be easy root remains a question but wel find out soon enough.

i suggest ditching the facebook ap and make a shortcut to the mobile browser version on your homescreen instead.
its almost the same layout but the browser one is faster smoother and doesnt use as much battery.
do not sue the stochk browser tho chrome is also preinstalled and thats way better on the battery.

Been pretty interested in optimus 4x hd..I have been wondering if 4x hd will be getting the qslide feature in optimus G after the jelly bean update.I heard that the new F5 and F7 will be getting this feature so I don't see why 4x hd shouldn't be getting one too with its specs.

I bought this phone 1 month back. The most disadvantage I felt with this phone is the battery backup. 1 Hour of NFS MW... battery Gone!!! From 100% to 30%!!! Standby time awesome.. But using it will cause lot of battery drainage...:( Rest it is a nice phone with good features till now.....!!

AnonD-106365, 24 Feb 2013if f7 gets the qslide optimus 4x will deffa get all the enhancing features:)personaly i thik its highly likely it will get it as it seems unlikely lg is gonna make different skins for all there phones.
im sure they want all of them to feel the same ui wise as they want people to get used to it.
personaly i dont like the slide tho im old fashiond that way haha (i just hate change) but im sure you can disable it :)

AnonD-106365, 24 Feb 2013aahh cool so im still confused what to buy actualy after seeing the new enhanced features of g... morethe the F7 has advantages and disadvantages.
+bigger battery and lasts longer due to dual core instead of quad core, it has 4g support and 2gb ram.
-dual core so less power and only 8gb rom and most likely quite expencive and only realeed in like 4/5 months.
and by then the 4x will be the same price on release.
optimus g is better in every way however expect this to be atleast 150 euro more expencive which to me isnt worht the minor increase in speeds/specs.
as for gaming no phone is made for gaming they will all drain within 4 hours.
other then that every dual core at this time is fast enough for about app in the store quad cores are just major overkill for now but noone knows if that will stay.
i think specialy as the G is expenvice the G Pro will be sinkening expencive and the F7 isnt availible for a long time your save with the 4x and it wont disapoint you its just a beast and all you will need for atleast the next 2 years.

i dnt think f7 will beat 4x hd becoz check the internal memory its only 8 gb + its dual core so it'll deffa bow down to 4x.if u tke lyk iphone and other model there gpu will differ so u can say something bt nt thz
plus point only it has 2 gb ram dats it
f7 = junior optimus 4x hd
