  1. Hey guys, Sad to say I moved on to ATT this past weekend to get the Galaxy Note 3. Had an opportunity to cut my bill down by joining the family and been drooling over the phone for a while now. Thanks for all the great info and I will be sure to check in to see how Orlando is developing. I may be back in two years Wishing you all a speedy LTE rollout!
  2. Thanks! Going to pick up a Victory for $50 off Craigslist. Seems like a solid deal based on your comments.
  3. This is a good comparison. To me, it looks like the GS4 wins when flash is needed. But the G2 blows the GS4 out of the water with granularity when there is no flash.
  4. A guy over at MacRumors shows this having some great battery life too! http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=17909318&postcount=82
  5. Thanks! Im also holding out for the Nexus 5 lol. If I decide to stick with Sprint, I would go for the G2 and keep an eye out for the Nexus 5. Wouldn't get the Note 3 since it plans to not be Tri Band.
  6. Herein lies the catch lol. I may be switching to AT&T to get the Note 3... Did some math and I will end up paying less by joining my families AT&T plan than staying solo on Sprint. Plus it would be 10GB of data shared by 3 people, one of which who uses less than 1GB per month. So although I follow this site religiously, it might make sense for me to move on to AT&T. But I may be back in two years when Sprint starts beating everyone in the LTE game lol. Between the phone offerings and deciding on a carrier, this has been the hardest phone upgrade decision i have ever had to make lol.
  7. Good to know, thanks. Im going to wait until the Note 3 is actually available in stores to play with before making a decision. The G2 just had quick animations and that IPS display looked really sharp. I doubt it would have the outdoor readability issues i heard the Note 2 had.
  8. No the Note 3 I am afraid of being too large lol. I could barely touch my middle finger to my thumb when wrapping my hands around the center of the G2. Dont think i stand a chance of doing that on the Nite 3 lol.
  9. Went to AT&T today to play with the G2. It is an awesome looking phone and super snappy, couldn't believe it. Was right next to the Note 2 and saw a huge contrast in screen brightness and clarity. I know the Note 3 will have an increased resolution, but this thing looked good. Im 50/50 now with this and the Note3 mainly because I am worried about the size being too large. Hard decisions means there are good choices out there!
  10. Ladies and Gentlemen, the man has made a decision!
  11. I just don't get why Sprint has been so delayed on their phone releases? G2 & Note 3 have already been announced with release date for the other carriers. Is Sprint historically slow on releasing devices compared to the other US carriers?
  12. My main reason is that I watch a lot of phone reviews. I am interested in seeing parts of it but other parts I already know. So most of the time I just want to hear the viewers perspective. On 10-15 minute videos I would just like to be able to jump out of the video, continue to listen while I browse the web, then jump back in when I want to.
  13. Without me reading the 50 pages of this forum, how is LTE up in St. Augustine / JAX? I travel up there about once a month for work, but with out an LTE phone I haven't had a chance to test.
  14. Sounds like you have got yourself convinced. Just stop reading all these forums and pick one up
  15. Haha, I know I have been watching your posts to see what you are going to do. I'm in the same boat as you.. was ready for the Note 3 but can't make myself pull the trigger without it TriBand. I'm sure people have seen my other posts that I haven't been happy with Sprint's 3G service and have thought about jumping ship. Today I did a whole analysis with AT&T price comparisons by leaving my individual Sprint plan and joining back with my parents/brother on AT&T just to get the Note 3 with solid LTE coverage. I just hate limiting data, even if it will end up being cheaper than Sprint for me. This phone, the G2, is the latest one that has my attention since I am pretty sure 2600MHz is rolling out in Tampa and 800 & 2600 will likely roll out in my home town of Orlando. It's a tough road and I suck with decision making lol.
  16. Man, this thing is getting GREAT reviews. I spent this evening watching 4-5 in depth reviews and they all recommended this phone. Great camera, great battery life, snappy, and the LG skin isn't 'that bad'. This very well could be the go-to phone for S4GRU since it is the only one with Tri-Band. Coming from a 32GB iPhone, I no issues with a fixed battery and no SD card. Was leaning on the Note 3, but only way I'll get that now is if I switch to AT&T.
  17. Sorry, should have worded it better. Will the sound still come through, even though you are viewing your home screen (or any other app for that matter).
  18. That answers my question, thanks so much! Not sure if I would use it either, but was just curious. How about videos or YouTube.. will those still play on stock Android if you start it then hit the home button? Probably my biggest pet peeves about iOS. Oh and I apologize for the 'newbish' questions here, ya'll just know what you are talking about so I like to use S4GRU as much as possible lol.
  19. Does any one know what bands we are planned to be here in Orlando or what have already rolled out in Melbourne/Orlando? After hearing about the Tri and Dual band devices, I am curious to know what we will be getting. Am I correct in thinking they are rolling out the 1900 MHz spectrum now and likely the 2600MHz since we had Wimax here?
  20. Does native Android, such that this device would be running, have a good way of multitasking? Haven't been on Android for two years so wanted to see what multitasking, if any, are available. In terms of multitasking, I am referring to the G2's Qslide and Galaxy Multiwindow. Thanks!
  21. Are we giving up hope already? lol Really will be a bummer and have a huge impact on my decision.
  22. Right there with you.. Keeping this thread close
