                It looks good to sound me about LG. As i am the tester of this device and i found that this will be having a burst in the market and so happened.....It would be interesting to here that no matter which ever phone you take (except iphone) you will always find hidden bugs and performance error which is not present in LG

In malaysia we had all sony device range flagship to midrange and the mid entry. But sadly the carrier only provide one or two sony device attacted with a contract. But i never careless cause without a contract the device price already at the lowers to offer. Maybe because malaysia dont charge taxes for smartphone.

                                Samsung released Jelly Bean for Galaxy S2, a phone similar to P720 (but not 3D) and S2 is even older than P720! So where's Jelly Bean??????

                                  pokipur, 24 Oct 2013Just let LG strengthen its marketing and global availabilit... moreSony is worse at availability of their smartphones. Such a brand and struggling so shamefully slow to put their better and best smartphones on the shelves of much MORE markets, like in my country; Peru.
                                  Here the Xperia Z never arrived, the ZL arrived but only for one carrier (there are only 2 of them), it was the carrier I don't like (bad plans).

                                  We compained a lot at the local Sony Mobile FB acc, but they just said: "ZL is available. Z won't"
                                  That really made me hate Sony.
                                  The problem of it is that it builds too many midrange devices!!!!!!!!!! That is wwwwwwwwwwooooooorng Sony! Dang.

                                  Anyway, the Z1 will be available in my country soon. Confirmed. But the Z ULTRA, likely, won't!!!!!! How hideous!!!!!!

                                  That's a MAJOR prblem these brands have: Terrible slow availability or nothing at all!!!!!! No wonder why Samsung sells so many millions. For example, the Note 3, which was unveiled at the same time as the Z1, is already here for 3 weeks now.

                                  LG -understandably- never released the G Pro here (the Optimus G does is here), but now it's a matter of weeks for the G2 to be here.
                                  So, thumps up for LG. And a kick for Sony to finally awake!!!!!!!! n.n

                                      Way to go...G2 has definitely revived LG's stand in the smartphone market. Sometime I wonder if G2 was released with Aluminum body, will someone every be looking at the present phones in the market at all...
