It's difficult, I know. But don't make it more difficult than what it already is.

Nokia (Windows) & iPhone (iOS) is never even on my list as a option when I choose a new phone. I just don't like the interface.

The G3 is really a good phone. I prefer it over the Note 3 I had for more than a year.

Why don't you wait for the G4??

I'm using a Sony Z3c. Absolutely love the G3 and the 930...

It all boils down to the OS you want to use

I also have a Z3c as my secondary phone.

What's your preference between the Sony and LG?

What's your preference between the Sony and LG?

I got my Z3c in December 2014. I then used it as my primary phone and my Note 3 as my secondary phone. I liked it so much
that after about 3 months I decided to get rid of my Note 3.

Then I got a Z Ultra but only had it for about a month. It was also just used as my secondary phone.

When I got the LG G3 I immediately started using it as my primary device. And since then I'm still using it.

Camera is definately better on the G3 than on the Z3c.
Battery life is better on the Z3c.

I like the size of the G3 more than the Z3c. I really cant say which is the best though but preference, I will say the G3.
Reason only being the size and camera quality.

Does the G3 have an official update locally? On any network? Which ones do and which ones don't?

I've got a MTN LG G3 and updated to Lollipop a few weeks ago.
5.0
Still waiting for 5.1 or even 5.0.2

So I did the factory reset 2 week ago, because of home launcher crashing. Been fine until yesterday. Yesterday and today couple crashes again.

I am with Vodacom and I got the Lollipop update via OTA. Use this website and your IMEI to check what is available for your phone: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?firmware=1

It will also show you from which country your phone is.

So I now have a G3 Beat... Where does one find the lollipop firmware released in Europe and how can I flash it?

Depends on how much you're willing to pay.

I have one and also due for upgrade so I can sell mine for good second hand price or sell you a new sealed unit.

But I'll need to know what your offer is.

PM me ballparks and we can chat . Ideally I think I'd go for the used one but it depends on pricing

You have to love eBay I managed to get a pretty decent quick circle cover and qi wireless charger for the grand total of R40, I can't even imagine what it would cost here. The only downside was it took 3 flipping months
