Agreed but for those that can't afford the G4 this may be a decent alternative. I myself would prefer to just wait and save my money for the high-end version or until it becomes cheaper (that's what I did for the G3).
Interesting nevertheless. I am failing to understand a few points (besides obviously making up for the inferior features to the G4)
Why the Stylus version? If at all I can see the G4c but the stylus version is doing everything wrong.

Would be nice if LG would make a version of the G4 with a larger screen AND the same hardware inside lol.
The specs on the stylus are terrible, I don't see many buying that, 1g of ram? Now that's funny.
current devices: Nexus 6, Note 4, 3, 2, S3, OneX+

The one with stylus is known as G Stylo (H631 and variations) from T-Mobile.
update: it's $289 paid in full.
T-Mobile version has 2GB RAM and 16GB NAND.

I really would have thought they might have tried to make a bigger screen with a Stylus to match the Galaxy Note series, but I guess with all the overheating issue Snapdragon are having they've not opted to do it this year. Maybe next year they can actually bring out a phablet that can at least compete, well if Snapdragon can bring our a processor that doesn't overheat.
Also as everyone else has said, these phones are just a cheaper G4.

Wow that's cheap! The thing is... That's a completely different phone. I would have rebranded it.

I am hesitant for Flex and Flex 2 for AMOLED screen.
Yes, it has unlimited contrast, but it's also prone of burn.

Who thinks that the Galaxy S5 is a disappointment?

I already saw the leaked images and feel that the S5 is a taller version of the S4 with ribbed back. And same cheap plastic. No go for me. I think LG or HTC will be winning?
Anyone else disappointed in what the S5 will be?
I think a lot of us are but let see what Samsung does. They are starting the announcement now. We'll have a better opinion afterwards.

The galaxy s1, 2, and 4 all seemed to be big leaps from the prior generation to me. The s3 at the least inherited a whole new design language. I love Sammy but the s5 seems to be a huuuuuge let down. It's not really their fault, most processor, screen, and camera improvements in the last year have been modest. But a let down nonetheless
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
I'm not at all impressed with the design of it. I expected something new with it. To me, this does not feel new. The whole Galaxy Gear and Fit stuff, don't care too much about either.
Now let's go with what I am impressed with. Just from seeing the UI, and hearing it's not packed full of useless S branded crap is a huge plus to me. The fingerprint scanner is pretty nice too.
I know people aren't too keen on Knox, but I'm hoping Samsung did improve on Knox for the corporate sector. The school district I manage the cell phone service for has upgrades coming in a month or two for 90% of the lines, and depending how Knox's security is, this is going to be a deciding factor in the new mobile purchases.
Maybe the version that leaked isn't the premium version. I will pass judgement once the device is officially announced.
I don't like the increases in size and weight, considering it only gets a 0.1" larger screen. The bezels look larger than the S4. Keeping the RAM at 2GB and 16-32GB storage (and, if the past is any indication, 16GB will be the only one readily available) for the 3rd straight generation, while the Note has increased to 3GB/32GB minimum, indicates that this is no longer their flagship phone. I had an S2, skipped the S3, now have an S4, and will skip the S5. Smallest increase in overall specs in the 'S' series yet. Water resistance is nice, but not that big a deal to me. USB3 is a nice upgrade, but that's the only thing that really jumps out at me. Camera is better, but I don't use a camera that much anyways, so doesn't matter to me. VERY happy they are continuing the use of SD cards & removable batteries, though. If I lost my S4 it would be a toss-up for me between the S5 & Note3.
no FM radio
Lack of FM radio is a disappointment. Still prefere phones with good old fashion radio receiver.
i expected more bang, but i guess jumping from my s2 to an s5 is indeed a huge gain!
The design is just...terrible.
I'm glad I purchased a Note 3. The GS5 looks too big to not be in the Note family.
Same RAM, lower perceived screen resolution, same design, really weird UI redesign. Not impressed. Should have been called GS4+
As for the next HTC phone, I have a feeling it will be a disappointment as well.

3 phones I'm interested in, the Z2 (never owned a Sony phone, it may be time), the G3 and iPhone 6. The S5 is a good phone but it just improved the S4. It's a marriage between the S4 and S4 active in what the S4 should have been in the first place. I think if I say S4 once more I'm gonna puke....

It look like a plan B device. Plan A failed for some reason!!
These specs are unacceptable
Everyone was hyping it to be the next best thing. Even a Samsung exec said that they understood how they failed to innovate with the S4. I even expected it to have the 2k resolution screen and camera with OIS since LG was able to do it a few months ago. Samsung sure made the people who bought the Note 3 feel good about their purchases.

New G Pads - much worse than ours!

http://thenextweb.com/gadgets/2014/...t-arriving-europe-week-g-pad-8-0-10-1-follow/
LG has announced the "successors" to our tablet. They feature worse specs in every aspect, that means we have nothing to upgrade to!
LG has took a great step with the original (our) G Pad and made a great premium tablet, but because it didn't sell enough they decided to go with the samsung way to produce a crappy tablet with a cheap (yet overpriced) price.

What the hell... Is this true? How can they go the downgrade route when everybody else is churning out a better specced tablet every year?
There MUST be a misunderstanding regarding the specs.

I'm hoping these new G Pads are just LG keeping product in the pipeline until they can release a premium tablet with a quantum dot display. If not then they are dead go me. These new g pads are boring commodity yawns. Could not be less interested.

It's far worse than that....
They know they are not capable of competing with Samsung or Apple on the high end and with the HTC built Nexus 8 about to arrive and dominate the Middle / Upper Middle class range.. LG has done the wise thing and put themselves back in the class consisting of tablets like the Lenovo A10, Asus MeMO FHD 10, Acer Iconia A-130 etc..
LG has no desire to and are not capable of running with the big dogs at the upper end of the tablet spectrum.. Thus the V700, V500 and V400.. Hey, at least they'll have something on the shelves.

REQUOTE: ...did not sell enough - That's their own doing. When it was first announced, I *really* wanted one of these and would have happily paid a premium full asking price on day 1, but up here in Canada this was total vapourware for the first 6 months of its release, and is only just recently available from our big electronic retailers as web-purchase only for $399, still vapourware if you want to see and hold the device, not available in-store, and I can assure you I'm NOT going to cough up that kind of coin sight unseen for something that by the time it became available to me was pretty much a year and a half old on specs.
For the current selling price, I'll be able to get one of the new Samsung 8.4" tabs with better-in-every-respect specs.
LG did this to themselves. If you want to sell your product, you have to actually make it available. Samsung has that figured out, I can walk into *any* local store, drugstores included, and physically see, try and purchase a full range of their plethora of devices. Despite *begging* LG via email for months, I was never able to actually get one of these in any way, and now that I can, it's way too late. Again I say, they did it themselves and really should think long and hard about their marketing and supply strategy.
Cheers

Darn. And google is out of the 8.3 gpe model. Looks like I am out of luck until the Nexus 8 then

Well, that makes me all the happier I bought my G Pad 8.3. It really is a great device for the price, and at any price really. Now if I could just get rid of LG's bloated version of Kit Kat...
When I heard about the LG10.1 I was like " I'm going to sell my 8.3 then buy that " but when I saw the specs? I'm? happy with my 8.3 cheap with competitive specs!
I just bought a second hand LG G PAD 8.3, only 145 $... Hip hip hoooo

Hey guys,
LG's new tablets may be worst than ours but their new UI is gorgeous! And as the 8.3 has a better hardware I bet it could run that ROM pretty smothly.
Can anyone make a port of that ROM for our device?

Moto x+1 leaked!

Tktechnews got a first look at moto x+1:
"Some things I can tell you right now. The display is Amazing, all preproduction model devices have a certain color back. Which I cant say to protect the source. And ill most likely have to put tape on the back to hide that.
Ill put it next to the old Moto X for comparison.
SD card slot is confirmed (at least from what ive seen) (you dont think id travel with all that cash without some proof of the device)
Also unexpected goodies! A new moto tablet is in the house for verizon and its a beauty.
And yes I will be dropping images on intagram"
He confirmed the 1080p amoled screen. Also, today he posted a video but i cant post the link here. Check his twitter account: @tktechnews
Cool.
He was trying to say Touchless Controls is not working but he was using "Ok Google" as the trigger. Yeah... mine doesn't trigger with that either, you have to say "Ok Google Now" LOL.
Rookie.
And you have to actually train it (it's not enabled by default, the training enabled the service), at least that's how it's been on the Droid MAXX and Droid Mini I owned recently as well as the Moto X I have currently (but will be returning next week).
You'd think the guy posting all these leaks of new Motorola hardware would know how to operate 'em in the first place, geez.
Truth be told!
I'm going to assume the chip inside is not going to be Motorola's in-house SoC since Qualcomm has their own solution on the S800.
Touchless control is still included. Yay!

Nice ! So the Active Display will still available. I hope they put more functions and develop for more customization on it.
Very exciting stuff. I am very curious to see how much bigger it is next to a Moto X.
Looks good!
I don't think the size of the new one will be as big as the others with a similar size display. If you look at the current X, it's the smallest phone that has a display size of 4.7 inches. ALL other phones with the same display size are noticeably bigger.
5" 1080p AMOLED, SD card, snapdragon 800, and the active display/touchless moto x features. I'll buy it. (unless it launches at a stupid high price, then I'll wait 60 days for the price to cut in half)

The S800 does have a fully programmable DSP, but why go through all of the work again when they've already done the work with the TI DSPs?
It just makes more sense to keep the DSPs found in the Moto X and just upgrade those as they improve as well. TI provides better support to manufacturers anyways.

I'd trade the SD card for a better camera and aluminium body. The existing speaker is perfect.
I know for a fact Motorola will update their X8 system integrating it with a more up to date Snapdragon CPU (possibly based on 800 series).

I really like the sound of the specs.... Definitely has peaked my interest, now to see what Lenove does with the pricing...
New pic from tktechnews shows the phone about 1/3rd of an inch taller than the x.
Says they are working on sanding off the markings then more pics and videos coming.
Well it looks like I won't be buying the X+1. They show it being a Sharpie width taller, which is a lot taller in reality. I could handle a device that is a little wider, or even thicker. It's the tallness that bothers me, doesn't fit in my pocket well and is uncomfortable while sitting. I'm glad I have my Moto X however, it's such a good phone I don't really feel the need to upgrade. Maybe they will make a mini or something. Who knows.

Are you buying the Nexus 6?

Hello guys
So for OnePlus One users.. Are you getting the new rumored 5.9" Nexus 6? If not, what feature/specs can make you change your mind?
I currently have a 64Gb OPO. I wasn't interested, but a friend sent me an invitation and I couldn't resist. So far I'm loving the battery, cyanogen and everything in general.. But I miss wireless charging and that "Nexus-Google" feeling.
I'll be upgrading my Nexus 7 to the new one for sure, and I'm probably getting the Nexus 6 to give it a try. What about you guys?
Got the note 3. Really wanted the 4 but been abit underwhelmed by it.
So i ordered the opo gonna set that up and play with it but it's abit to small screen wise and a bit to big real estate wise i think. So will give that to my dad.
I'm really tempted by the nexus 6 and i think I'll go for that.

Definitely won't buy it. 5.9 is too big for one handed use.
Hell, I sold my note 3 just to buy a Oneplus One!
depends.. really like opo, would like to try N4 (used N3 b4 opo) - i guess it'll all come down to price, specs, overall design (if it feels too big or just right)
I went from the N2 to the nexus 5, and I kinda like the smaller screen now. I'm on the fence about the N6. I'm moving to Korea so I'm going to wait until I get there to replace cellular devices.

Nope! The note 3 is more of a square shape (wide) & flat, while the opo is a rectangle shape & curved.
BIG difference when in hand. Especially when you have a case on.

Nope! The note 3 is more of a square shape (wide) & flat, while the opo is a rectangle shape & curved.

They're both rectangles, a square has equal length sides
The main differences are that the OPO has curved top and bottom, and it has smaller radius corners.

The note 3 is a half centimeter larger.
BTW we know nothing about the nexus 6... i'm kinda curious about android L and ART, but from the 2 pics that we have, it seems too big for the average usage.. i don't think that it will fit in my pocket...
Next phone i will buy is the OnePlus One 2
Think I will get the n6, having owned an n4, n5 and n10 its the only right thing to do
I got my OPO last month, so I don't think I'll by a new one so quick.
The Nexus 6 looks great but we have to wait and see what users have to say about him after some usage.

Isn't the OPO about the same size?
That's cool. I like Korea (I'm assuming it's South Korea ). You might also wanna look at some Cat6 devices like the new G3 with snapdragon 805.
BTW, why are you moving?

South, of course . I work for the US Govt. They're relocating me to Seoul for a few years.
The two things that may keep me from buying the N6 are the price and storage capacity. I'm very happy with the OPO, you just can't beat it at $360 with the 64GB capacity. Motorola's new phones which the N6 may be borrowing hardware from just seem pretty mediocre, particularly the cameras, and I'm also not a fan of the design in general. I may consider it if it comes with a 64GB option or has a SD card slot, but all I've been hearing is that it will only come in 16GB and 32GB and no SD card slot. I had an N5 and I've always been a fan of the Nexus line of phones, but I now see them as mediocre devices compared to the OPO, but we'll see.
Depends on price. I'm pretty happy with the OnePlus the only thing is I'm on t mobile so I'm missing that one band and is like to get that.

I have yet to he impressed with a Motorola camera. Just got the OPO and came from a find 7a. Bought it specifically to avoid the upcoming nexus.
Maybe. I got this phone from Swappa using that PayPal no pay for 6 months. So essentially this is a trial. Ill wait til the next Nexus is announced before making a decision as I haven't risked anything with this phone yet.

Confused by you question / post. The OPO is missing a Tmo band?

Based on lastest leaks, G5 is not that worth coming from the G3. The plus variant may be a better choice in my opinion

Well I feel like the moto g5 is better upgrade because it comes with nougat and the battery is replaceable making it easier to switch batteries.

Yes, well it depends on everyone's personnal choices and opinions
Yeah I agree totally, it would have been nice to get the 625 in the non-plus and some smaller bezels. Get shafted as usual. :-/

A S625 will increase the price too so..
Thinking about upgrading my Oneplus 2 to the G5. Mostly because I want a smaller screen and the G5 looks to be fairly cheap.

It's kind of a downgrade to be honest...

It is. But I don't like the 5.5" screen size and the G5 looks to be a decent smaller-size phone.
Just bought one today - already available at a local brazilian retailer. So far I'm liking it. Built quality remembers me my Moto G 2013, solid built. BUT I miss the front facing speakers of my Alcatel Idol 3. Front facing speakers are very underrated. Anyway If you guys have any questions I'll be happy to answer them.

Nice upgrade
12 hours of moderate use now. Battery seems just right. Good thing is the phone did not overheat once during all day of use.

Well, how much more is the G5+ than the G5? It's got more things different than just the SoC.

Guys, I've just left the store and had the g5 and g5 plus in my hands, a brief description (maybe nothing new)
G5: Extremely light, really realy light, it is fast, the cover is removable and only the center part is made of metal. The camera looks good. The phone has a good size, and the interface is the same as always. The chip and SD card are under the hood. Price: R$999 (in Brazil)
G5 Plus: Heavier obviously, have NFC and fast payment option or name that I don't know. I thought very fluid. Particularly, the design on hands is beautiful. The Launcher is equal to the pixel, but dark. Price: R$1499 (in Brazil)
I must have forgeten some detail, anyway ask me.
