Both are gr8 phones, and the only difference really comes down to the screen. Internals are the same. The g2 also has ois camera. Bigger curved screen on the flex, but its 720p. Still looks good, and believe it or not, the more runtime, the better it looks. I think the flex runs faster in everyday use, prolly because it does alot less processing for graphics because of the lower resolution ...

I have a G2 and Flex on T-Mobile but I don't think the carrier matters. You can't go wrong with the G2 or Flex but I'm 95% sure I'm selling my G2 and keeping the Flex. The main reason is the Flex battery life very good and it "wow's" me with the curved screen + it just seems a tad faster/smoother. I don't think the resolution difference in screens is as big as deal as people make it out to be. Both screens are sharp. I think the camera's are pretty similar. I will miss the G2 development but I think the Flex will be ok with time. I won't miss the echo bug that most KitKat Roms had with the G2. lol Just depends if you want a big phone or not.

The S5 is coming out soon and the G3 I think is around the corner as well.

I just got the Flex and starting to use to see if it can be my daily driver. So far the screen isn't as bad as some people have stated. However, I'm just on day 2.

I came from the galaxy s3 on att and about the screen. I've noticed a few things that I didn't like about it for instance after texting someone I can still see the keyboard after I've put it away of a few seconds and I'm on day two the girl at the att. Store said if I don't like it I can take it back before. 14 days

Like you I'm in that period too, so I'll see how everything plays out.

That issue should get less pronounced the more u use it, atleast it did on mine. I think its an inherent issue with it being first Gen poled (plastic oled)

Both great phones. It's easier to recommend the G2 since its smaller (although a big phone itself).

But it comes down to preference and some compromise. The G2 is excellent, has great battery life, has a great display, has a great camera with OIS, is easier to handle with one hand, has more development, is cheaper.

The Flex is more stylish (in my opinion), has a better battery life, has a curved display, shoots 4k videos and has a self healing back.

On paper the G2 wins to be honest. But the G flex is great cause it is something different with its curved display, is a big phone for those who like big devices and has the best battery life of any phone. It's easier to dislike the G flex than disliking the G2 cause of the 720p and its big size. Me I prefer the G flex cause I love the curve. If this phone wasn't curvy I wouldn't even consider it.

The Flex has turned out to be a pretty good device.
