Sold my G3 recently because the battery was too old for using it as a emulator device anymore.

Great phone, great camera and it was even considering the screen snappy enough for it's time, sadly terrible battery life but miles ahead of my previous phone the Galaxy Nexus.

            LG - the quiet innovator.

              I just loved the G3. Until the mainboard failed even after a replacement i couldn't enjoy it much longer because of failures.

                          Oppaii, 01 Mar 2020LG G3 is the best flagship at that time but I don't know wh... moreBecause none of those statements is true, had one for 30 days and traded it for an htc m8 and apart from the rear camera didn't miss it one bit, horrible battery life, overheating for no reason, screen was laughable at best, even my old LG optimus 2x had better contrast.. Don't get me started on the horrible software LG had on that phone that was laggy and slow... Horrible phone.

                            back in the days when LG G2 & LG G3 are the supreme phones, i actually trade my samsung note 3 for LG G3

                              Good old times, when a phone less than 150 mm tall was called a giant.

                                  I loved that phone. I miss the placement of the buttons on the back

                                    2013: LG G2 = Best phone of the year, period. Best camera of the year.
                                    2014: G3 = Highest-specced phone at the time of it's release. Best camera of the year.
                                    2015: V10 = Best design of the year. Best camera of the year.
                                    2016: V20 = Best camera of the year.
                                    2017: V30 = Best design of the year.

                                    LG's supremacy lasted for upto 5 years, when LG continued to trade blows with Sammy. Unfortunately LG started derailing since 2018... but it seems they're getting back on track in 2020. Good luck to them!

                                      Still an awesome phone,besides the the battery drain sometimes, preferred it over the ugly AF samsung S5

                                        How dim the display was, contrastless and colorless, I couldnt bear that screen so I sold my phone after 87 days one of worst screens on a flagship, but camera was really remarkable
