Anyone else got one of these? had mine a few days now (had a 4s and the previous LG P880), its bloody amazing  , I maybe be biast towards LG but even from an outsiders view this phone is superb.
Handset itself to me does not feel cheap or anything, some people stated it creaks and cracks when bent but i have checked and mine does not do it, feels solid enough and certainly better IMO then the S4
back buttons (volume/power) take some getting used to but it is a minor inconvenience and far outwighed by the other specs, bit marmite to be honest
Screen is fantastic, playing very demanding graphics games is superb, watching hd content is simply stunning, first thing everyone notices when they look at it is how clear and big it is (almost zero bezel around the left and right side of screen
UI is a bit boring and typical of LG's old ones, very cluttered and lots of un-needed apps/features but again can be easily changed
Camera - superb (13mp), lots of usable settings which work, has a nice in built video editing software also which is pretty decent, again IMO better then counterpart smartphones (Lumia and Z1 probably going to much better but not seen them)
Battery - best i have used yet (3000mAh), had it on for about 18 hours now with no charge yet and thats even with hammering it with games, messaging, browsing and some streaming, still above 30%
Power - opening apps and scrolling and loading things is instant, processor is fastest or one of the fastest on a phone (2.26 QC) and nothing I have chucked at it yet has made it struggle or stutter,
Some nice features on phone like infa red remote which actually works unlike other apps, "knock on" you can turn on screen by double tapping it when its on table, audi pickup so you can zoom in on audio on a certain aread if you are recording a video (it does actually seem to work quite well)
worth considering if anyone is on the lookout for a new android, not badly priced either, I am sure Dom will be on here shortly to pick it apart anyway.

Looks good, very much like the S4 from the front.
No point buying it though since it's likely to be the basis for the Nexus 5 which will no doubt be better and cheaper.

thats not guaranteed, alot of speculation at the mo, some rumours suggesting it may have a smaller screen and slower processor

so specs are out for the nexus 5, as predicted not as good as the G2, uses same processor but smaller screen, lesser camera and features, still going to be a good buy though undoubtedly!
