G2

Hands freaking down, ya can’t beat a Snapdragon800-equipped flagship with a Php22k SRP.

One glaring weakness of the Note 3 that is often not discussed is its weak radio signal. Subukan ninyo side-by-side kung ano mang meron kayo, mahina ang signal ng Samsung

Lg G2 is simply a good product but a bad device. It’s the best hardware and software combination but one of the worst and laziest after sales support similar to China phones.

If you break it or something happens you’re out of luck with customer service. I guess not getting the 4.4 kitkat update is OK but with the latest android 5.0 around the corner, I sure wouldn’t want to get left out like what happened to lg 2x.

Point is, kung bulok after sales service and support, ano na pa ba difference sa magandang China phone?? Bad experience ako sa past lg products ko.

If there were a Nexus 5, that’d be it. Sadly, there isn’t. So it’s either going to be the HTC One or the LG G2 for me, likely the latter due to its Snapdragon chipset and high-end features for a bargain price compared to the other models.

Meron!! Kaso mas mahal pa sa g2 na supposedly the same with added feature. Good thing si google nag expand na ng market coverage niya. Hopefully nasa play store na ng pinas mga nexus in the near future.

if nexus 5 was indeed included on the list, tingin ko rin yun ang top 1, then G2 then note 3, imho. pero locally kasi, medyo mahal ang nexus 5, halos Php1k lang pagitan sa G2 (see listing on kim.com.ph). so as of now, G2 is definitely the best flagship smartphone in terms of price to performance ratio, again imho :D

but since, apple fanboy ako, iphone5S kasi naimprove nya yung iphone 5. SMARTPHONE AS IT IS ha, without comparing it to the iphone5.

In my opinion, both the Sony Xperia Z1 and Samsung Galaxy Note 3 are the best smartphones for 2013 with the slight advantage of the Note 3 for its bigger screen and S Pen functionality.

I gave up my iPhone 5 about 3 weeks ago and I was really planning to switch back to Android. But I’m having a dilemma between the LG G2, Samsung Galaxy Note 3 or the Sony Xperia Z1 but eventually i chose the Note 3 and bought it. Really happy with my decision and I’m in love with my Note 3.

Currently I’m setting my eyes at Nokia’s new phablet, the Nokia Lumia 1520. I believe 2014 will be the year for Windows Phone and hoping they could come up with a smartphone with a 5-inch screen with the specs found on the Lumia 1520.

Ok sana yung LG G2 kaya lang walang microSD card slot. Satisfied ako sa note 3 ko, very useful yung S-pen and I noticed na maganda yung battery management nya kapag ginagamit ko as hotspot, hindi sya nainit at hindi mabilis ma drain =)

Cheers!

I think kaya lang naman sinasabi ng iba na the best ang LG G2 dahil mura siya kumpara sa note 3. Pero kung head to head comparison ng specs and performance sila, i think note 3 would win hands down. I’m not sure pero wala ata un G2 ng multitasking like sa note. Sarap mag surf while watching a movie at the same time. Another advantage is the s pen, enough said. If we’re talking about what’s the best smartphone, then we shouldn’t factor in price that much. Kasi kung ganun lang din e di sana mga china phones na lang ilagay natin dit9 na mga bang for the buck.

LG G2! Not just because of the innovative, ergonomic design (rear keys), but also because of the eye-popping 5.2-inch Tru-HD IPS+ LCD Display, Corning Gorilla Glass 3 with extremely thin bezels, chickenhead-inspired (haha) 13.0-megapixels primary camera with LED Flash and optical image stabilization, and more-than-sufficient 3,000 mAh Battery! It truly combines the best hardware possible at the moment but with commendable effort from LG for making the price even more affordable than some flagship phones.

kelan pa pinanalo ng GsmArena ang LG phone?

and according to that comparison
may kanya kanyang area( advatages & dis advtages) ang tatlong phones.

KUNG gusto mo ng BIGGER SCREEN GO FOR NOTE3
KUNG gusto mo ng COMPACT SIZE GO FOR G2

reminder GsmArena lang yan….. mas maraming tech sites na pinilinilaang LG G2 as the best smartphone as of 2013!

@THE END tayo rin ang pipili ng mas gusto natin at swak sa kailangan natin sa isang phone.

for me i choose LG G2 because of these 6 important and practical reasons;

1- PERFECT SIZE
@5.2 screen, but still the totality size of the phone very compact.

2- TRUE FHD IPS Display
i love natural colors.
i love pure whites
i love sharper
i love reading words on my Phone’s screen
i love natural, brightness at the same good viewing angles on my phone’s screen
NEUTRAL “BLACKS”
NO BURNING COLOR ISSUE!

3-3000mAh Li-po BATTERY + Graphic RAM.
tested long lasting battery life compare to other smartphone at the same battery capacity.
thanks to G-RAM technology made by LG-Chem.

4- 13MP with O.I.S.Camera
proven one of the best camera phone.
excellent quality even in low light conditions.
sharper, and can record FHD video @ 60 fps.

5- SWEET LG UI
simple,customized and easy to use.
Q-cover is very practical and more functional compare to other.

6- CHEAPER PRICE
i bought my G2 just 25,000 complete package.

RESULTS; IM SUPER SATISFIED……….
