As far as availability of the phone in Golden color is concerned, yes it is: in 32GB/ 3GB config, in 16GB/ 2GB config. I highly recommend you to get the phone from BeeGeek (formally known as iamextreme.net) in case of later configuration, otherwise HSN would do as well but beware they're not as reliable.

G3 was brilliant in all aspects....no lag of any kind anywhere in G3
No lag in g3? U sure? Because all g3s i checked in the market and bought one was lagging. And it was very noticeable lag.

I'll go to Hafiz Center tomorrow and check out the market for rates and availability. How can I make sure that the set is not re-packed or refurbished before purchasing it??? These don't come with any local warranty do they???

How much did you buy it for??? And how can one check to confirm it's not re-packed or refurbished, I've heard a lot of sellers are doing that nowadays but charging price of new phones, which pisses me off!

I bought it for 37000. Set and charger. But it was not getting ota updates. Maybe it was unlocked that's why. Flashed lollipop from market. Go for d855 model 32gb. Match imei no. There is an app on play store named "lg phone from". U can check phone's status through that. But I am not sure how reliable it is. Also check ota update. Mine was giving message"your phone is not registered" intead of showing lollipop update or no update available. Buy from some reliable shop.

Bro new M8 is 50K+ so don't want to spend that much especially when I've already used M7 and didn't really like it, so any specific reason why ppl are recommending M8 so much on here???

And will Z2 perform better than LG G3??? Reviews I've read conclude that LG G3 is better than Xperia Z2, have you used either one of these???

- - - Updated - - -



Have you used M8, Z2 or G3 bro???

G3 with 32 GB space and 3 GB RAM is around 46K on some online shops, have you seen in cheaper somewhere???

- - - Updated - - -



Lags even with 3GB RAM??? Lags in what exactly???

Don't want Note, too bulky for my taste.

Which other phone would you recommend???

- - - Updated - - -



What do you mean by skinned version of Android???

And what's google play edition devices???

- - - Updated - - -



Have you used it bro??? Do you think it's better than LG G3??? Why???
I've used and owned M7 and Xperia Z2, both were awesome. But before buying Z2 I was willing to get HTC One M8 but sadly due to tight budget I got Xperia Z2 which was awesome to be very honest, loved the battery timing and no lag what so ever, I know sony has a bad market but for me products review, specs and built quality matters a lot. As for M8 I only used it for 2 week which in reality belong to to cousin. But I was stunned by it more then Xperia Z2. If I had more cash while buying a new phone I would directly bought M8 instead of Z2. But whats does is done and I'm happy what i've got now.

As for comparing G3 with Z2 in my opinion the built quality is Z2 is way superior and I'm not saying this because I own Z2 I'm just pointing out the fact here, G3 is indeed quite good choice since ive used that as well for couple of days. But if we compare Z2 and G3 then G3 is indeed a clear winner specs wise, bigger CPU, wireless charging, bigger screen.

So what ever you choose I my opinion both smartphones are great to be honest. And if I'd rank M8 , Z2 and G3. Then I would rank them as 1st M8, 2nd Z2 (only because of looks tbh) and on 3rd G3 (Since i didn't like the built quality, Oneplus One has far more superior Built Quality then G3).


Lastly if you are still confused between these three then get Oneplus One it's the best smartphone ive ever used, Z2, G3, M8 comes nowhere near it in my opinion.

Went to check out Z2 and G3 and both looked nice but I liked G3 more so I'll get that.

Should I save 3-4K and get 16 GB + 2 GB RAM since I won't be running heavy games or tweaks or anything and if I ever need more space can always pop-in a microSD card ...

Or is it still better to spend 3-4K and get the 32 GB + 3 GB RAM??? Will I notice much difference in performance with 3 GB RAM instead of 2 GB???

Yeah planning to go with G3 as well but confused whether I should get the 16 GB variant or 32 GB variant.

Btw I've read a few reviews and people are complaining about lag and heating issues with G3 which is kind of deal breaker, what do you say?

Yes, you should be fine with 16GB/2GB config. And who said you can't run heavy games on a device having 2GB of RAM? You can throw whatever you want! I don't know what kind of lag people are talking about, but you can always flash custom ROMs - a luxury only mainstream brands enjoy. Heating? Every device heats up, some more so than other; nothing to worry about.

Well a few people on here suggested to get 32GB/3GB as it has no lag and screen ran smoother on videos etc whereas according to them 16GB/2GB had lag, so that's why was confirming.

I've a phone with 16GB/2GB config and I'm yet to see a moment when it has any delay in opening apps, let alone lag. People are just too fond of beastly specs. 3k isn't helluva difference, so it is a good reason to get the 3GB variant instead of 2GB, but it's no slouch either.

Well they were mostly saying that since G3 has massive resolution and pixel density it's best to go with 3 GB RAM, do you reckon it would be a noticeable difference if I go with 3 GB over the 2 GB variant???

Also wanted to know how can I confirm if the phone I get is refurbished/repacked or the Korean version and not the international version???

If 2GB of RAM can't handle such resolution, why would LG even make a variant with 2GB memory? Still, it's good to get the best you can afford.

It's hard to spot a repacked device, but a Korean phone must have this. Also, don't confuse Koreans with replica.

You mean the oversized phone with a terrible screen, outdated software and an under performing camera?

@OP
You can get a new LG G3, Xperia Z3 Compact or an HTC One M8 all for around 50k. Think about that when you look at people recommending a Z2.
so Z1 is also not good for some1 wid that budget? like 25-30k
anyways what would be good

What exactly is that antenna thingy??? Are you sure all the Made In Korea phones have this even LG G3???

Whaaaat?


Name the iPhone (other than 6+, 6 and 5S), that DOESN'T lag on iOS 8.
Using a 4S on iOS 8 is a nightmare. Its become even crappier than iOS 7.

Sent from my D6503
well i guess then all the people who said iphone doesnt lags were using these sets :p
also i heard jailbreak slows down the set

I Was Using IPhone 4s with IOS 8.1 And it was fine though the opening of apps was slower while my nexus 5 was so snappier than the iphone.
