Samsung is ugly as hell. I hate rounded shaped things (except women ;) ).
Samsung display is one of the most unrealistic displays i have ever seen, this is the main reason i was put-off by the previous SII.
On the other hand, LG software is crap and usually ships with even crappier bloat-ware. Support is nonexistent and their responses are an insult to intelligence.
Wish there was a Samsung Optimus G :)). LG hardware, display and overall looks with Samsung JellyBean software.

The specs are good but LG's skin is seriously lacking. Also chances are the optimus won't receive the update because it's an LG phone and LGs don't really get any support

Anonymous, 30 Oct 2012You didn't see the photos and videos? LG lost bigtime, thos... more if you try to see those photos
you will notice that LG Optimus G has more accurate color, and more sharper than s3's photos.
in terms of Video sample
LG Optimus G 's video is wider & more accurate in color.
the TRUE HD IPS+ IS currently the Best DISPLAY !

Some guys say that Samsung don't make good phones... moreInteresting that you say that about LG considering I've owned numerous TVs and Computer Displays, actually have had my LG LCD TV for over 3 years now and it hasn't missed a beat.. works PERFECT. Same with the monitor I had in the past, 24" LCD.. not a dead pixel or problem with any of my LG devices.
This is not to say that their phones are and will be problem free, but I don't think its fair at all to generalize and say all LG product is faulty.. they are every bit as faulty/not faulty as any other company, be-it Apple, Samsung, Nokia..
Stop being a hater.. you sound foolish.

Never LG again! My last phone from them (Optimus 3D) was a nightmare: bought it under froyo and although LG promised from the very beginning that it would get updated to gingerbread, they never delivered. I tried OTA, LG update software on PC and it always kept telling me it had already the latest software update which was not true. I finally got it updated by installing third-party software on my PC and even with the official LG-ROM 'forced' installation it was then plagued by the so called 'ghost call' problem , resulting in lost messages and calls..
Also, once every week it would get stuck trying to connect to any wifi without success and drain so much battery that it would be empty in about a couple of hours...
When I also noticed that it was even not able to connect to wifi without a sim-card inserted, I decided that it was time to switch to something reliable..
Not a fan of Samsung or any other brand, but my SGS3 just works flawlessly, fast and very reliable. My credit also to Samsung for delivering Jelly Bean on time and bug-free. The SGS3 absolutely deserves it's good reputation.
LG may come up with everything they want now, I just don't trust them anymore. Specs always look good on paper but it's day to day use that matters. Not just intentions or better... pretensions...

Anonymous, 30 Oct 2012LG Optimus "G" IS WAY BETTER THAN S3!
IN TERM ... moreYou didn't see the photos and videos? LG lost bigtime, those are bad results. And it can't even take full res photos while recording video. And it has no cardslot, epic fail, it has smaller storage than my phone in 2009. it even have smaller storage than N97 lol.
Galaxy S3 is also a loser with its pentile display and moderate battery. Note 2 takes care of those shortcomings. Note 2 is the one to beat and none of these two are fit to fight it.

LG Optimus "G" IS WAY BETTER THAN S3!
IN TERM OF CAMERA/VIDEO?
S3'S 8mp is can't be better than of the 13mp VERSION of Optimus "G".
"G" provides more ACCURATE COLOR and MORE SHARPER...
we can say maybe its a tie?in somehow...
but it was clearly never beat "G" 13mp
IN OTHER REVIEW LG " G" 13 mp CAMERA IS BETTER AND AWESOME!
In Term of BATTERY?
Galaxy S3 had 43hours ENDURANCE BATTERY LIFE(ICS)
Optimus "G" has 45hours ENDURANCE BATTERYLIFE(ICS)
in term of DISPLAY?
LG TRUE HD IPS plus is rocks.......
Optimus "G" has better Display over s3!
could you imagine when "G" will be updated to jelly beans?
SO overall "G" WON!

At&t has the Microsd card in their version of the LG Optimus G, so the SIII doesn't really have an advantage with that carrier. Both really good phones but SIII only does NFC with other SIII's, and the Optimus G is more flexible in that capacity. I also like the screen shot memo you can doodle on the Optimus G features which the reviewer didn't mention.
