imo it's a great phone, i'm not a huge fan of the camera though. doesn't perform well in low-light conditions and the shutter speed is quite slow.
Mine didn't come with an extra battery and also didn't come with "EARPHONES"! I got the D850 from Fido

If you want re sale value just get an iphone
Note 4 prices will most likely plummet ones S6 comes out in a few weeks. A few months later the Note 5 will be out and so on...
Agree with you on resale value of iPhones. I'm just comparing the prices based on the phones I've bought and sold recently (all of them Android though). The G3 had the most depreciation in terms of resale value.

No, mine didn't come with battery but I did get the free case. BTW, if your low light on the g3 isn't good, try using Xcam LG. Its a very good camera app

Yeah I did find that strange too. Not sure why that is, because most definitely the G3 is no worst than any of the other flagship Android devices imo.
I actually much prefer the G3 to my wife's Galaxy S5 yet the S5 is a lot more popular.

Great phone. It's pretty fast considering I had a Nexus 4 before. I love the 4k screen. I used a high resolution shot of the milky way as my wallpaper and the detail you get is unbelievable.

And the price and spec for the phone made it an amazing deal.

Its 1 of the most critically acclaimed phones of the yr, based on avg review score from various media as compiled by Engadget. There are so many great Android flagships, it's hard to pick a "best". No phone is perfect, there are flaws with the S5, M8, Moto X 2014, Z3, etc. They're all reasonably comparable overall IMO (of course there are differences, but no single phone is clearly much better than the others)

I just checked the release date and your right. It will appear around April/May. I could wait and maybe the G3 will be sold at a killer deal. It wont be flagship but I am ok with that. It happens with every phone. Once upon a time my S2 was such a killer phone...

Anyone know a good deal on a wireless charging pad for the LG G3?
