I keep wondering if I should of went the LG G2 for the screen, processer, battery life, etc.
Because screw bloated TouchWiz and it's crappy aesthetics. Seriously, the LG G2 is the same reason lol

Hardware wise, that LG G2 is amazing though. But those features are useless to me. HTC Sense has enough OEM skin features for me to use my phone daily.

Yeah but if you root and install a custom rom that's hardly an issue. Plus i heard they're getting 4.4 in NOV/DEC.

Metal. Heavy metal. And I looked seriously at the G2. I have had Samsung, used Nova launcher, I was happy with it. There are features this has though..blazing fast, GPS radio locks instantly, some others. I hate the camera, sorry not a fan, HTC could have done better. My Inc from 3 years ago beat it hands down. Heck, I think my old LG VX8300 beat it. Remember the "tank"? I hear that the S5 will be metal, and if it is, I'm leaving y'all. I'm just tired of the soft plastic crap.

Hmm...your camera might have a hardware problem.

I owned a LG phone years ago an old flip phone and was not happy with the build quality as both screens cracked in no time from being in my pocket. Where as my Motorola razr was a tank and could take abuse . Since then I swore no more LG phones . It's a personal choice for me.

Well in this case I wanted both plus I was eyeing the note 3. However with the deal at best buy I snagged this. Plus I signed up for something that allowed me a $50 bb card if I used them to upgrade. Total price: $3.74

I've been a Motorola guy for a long time. When my upgrade rolled around in August, I was extremely happy that Verizon had finally gotten the One. I decided to pick it up in blue while it was on sale for $50 at Best Buy. Kinda regret getting the blue, but whatever..... The build quality is the only reason. It is astounding.

Blue was still better looking than the white imo. If they had black, would've done that all day
