Never even think of buying this shit... lags like an old lady... gives a headache while playing games like coc... is better to add up some more money and buy a guinea or opportunity phone... I'm just looking forward to the day I sell this shit... god knows why I exchanged my s3 with this.. I repeat, DO NOT BUT THIS SHIT

My biggest issue with this phone has always been the noticeable lag everytime I open the messaging app. I tried it on my cousin's G3 which has Snapdragon 801 and he had the same issue. The LG custom skin is main culprit because my Lumia 640 has the same SoC and it is smooth. Now that is WP but I've tried Snapdragon 400 on other Androids and never had the lag prob.
I was going to root it today because text messages is probably my #1 task on a phone and hated seeing the hesitation everytime I opened it to text. But I solved that text lag problem. Download Textra app, make it your default messaging app, and problem solved. It won't eliminate all the lag on the cp but at least your texting app is fast at opening and closing. LG default messaging apps sucks just like the custom skin. But with Android, there is always workarounds.
I love this cp again thanks to Textra and getting my SwiftKey back. Texting was always my pet peeve on it because I generally love most things about it especially its decent camera, good speakers, and good battery life. I used to only get 3 hrs playing Plants vs Zombies 2 on my HTC One M7 and it ran hot after 20 minutes. With a modest Snapdragon 400 and plastic exterior, it never gets hot playing PvZ2 on this LG and I get 6-7 hrs of gameplay. Standby time is also fantastic.
Screw flagships. Waste of money for ego. Stick to midrange or budget phones. All phones are disposal anyway.

It gets slow after a while in a lot of things since the processor isn't really up to today's standards, and it only has 1GB of RAM. It's only for basic things.

I had this phone. It was working normaly, but after Lollipop update it became "shit". I had only few apps, but it wasn't running fast, apps were closing and etc. I don't recommend buying it or updating android to Lollipop :)

This is a good all-around phone better than the Moto G from 2013 and 2014. Perhaps surpasses my old HTC One M7 because of the long battery life and better camera. Only thing bad is it can hang sometimes with the 1 gig of RAM and the custom skin shows a little animation lag.
Good camera
Good loud speaker
Good battery life
Good screen
Good size
Good reception
The selfie cam isn't sharp but I like the white light background which provides light in a dark room. The flash is also pretty strong. LG got most of the basics right with this phone.

I have been using lg g3 s for 1 year 4 months. Every spec of this phone was great at first but phone started loading so slow.
I have to wait 5 seconds to start home screen and extra seconds to load setting loads. This is really creepy!

Phone is very good for the price, especially with expandable storage, however stock lollipop is very slow and laggy on this phone. But flashing cm13 on it has made it very smooth and snappy and worth the price.

The only way to get Marshmallow on this device is by Flashing CM13. After the phone upgrades to 5.0.2 Lollipop the Android Lollipop bugs start to slow the phone down and is really irritating thus flashing a custom OS like CM13 would be the best Choice.
