I think that, to be fair you should have cited that the at&t variant of the optimus G has indeed the sd card slot.

Dks, 29 Oct 2012Another fantastic comparison GSMArena. But clearly Samsung ... moreWhy is that? From what I have seen in the review it doesn't seem like you're right. Search the web and you will see that the S3 simply can't be better than Optimus G. And the LG is better even now, when not on JB, still running ICS. Imagine how it will be then(I'm saying only about the benchmark tests), if it's already better.
What does the S3 have and Optimus G doesn't? More storage, JB(for now)...and that's about it.
The Optimus G has a better design, building materials, hardware, better display, 1 GB of RAM more.
If you compare them overall, Optimus G wins in several aspects, but S3 wins on the aspect that LG didn't have an interest at all: the lack of the removable back cover gives the phone a better look. That's why Iphone users like Iphone, for its design. The design is the first you see when you look at a phone, but when you have these specs packed in a good looking phone like the Optimus G, you feel blessed, really. This is the next big thing, not the S3 and their copied slogan. I am really interested what will they copy next, because they already copied all that was to be copied. Pathetic sammy fanboys, they mock LG but they don't know how pathetic is their beloved brand.

iHATER, 29 Oct 2012it really made me laugh, the last sentence that says that o... moreHave you noticed in a single review of the Optimus G that it lags? No, you haven't because it simply doesn't lag. The browsing experience on the Optimus G is the best you have seen in a smartphone, miles better than S3. And everyday usage is always snappy. You sammy fanboy need a reality check! If you own an S3, you have to realize that there are better phones than it, like other phones beat the S2, when its time had come. You can't even compare the S3 with the Optimus G, the LG is far superior, and only Samsung fanatics don't realise this, maybe they realise, I'm sure they do, but they don't wanna tell the world, because they will look like fools.

Sawsees, 29 Oct 2012Lg -_- Some guys say that Samsung don't make good phones... moreIf you believe that you have to wait always for the best phone, then you will never buy one. At its time, a dualcore phone was the best, but one year later quadcore phones appeared, and now S4 quadcore. If you wait for A15 or Tegra 4, you won't buy phones having these on them, because Tegra 324 or A421412 will appear next year. You have to know your limits!

Lg -_-
Some guys say that Samsung don't make good phones.
And they like LG oO ?
LG, good on paper/specs(sometimes)/and maybe for some guys in design, but they are very low in software/build. It's simple, their products can't work more than 2-3years. (TV, phones...) Bugs or hardware problems... more often than Samsung in my circle of friends/family.
LG is just not serious.
Can't you see the Copy in their UI ?
Same icons (even samsung icons copy (according to Apple xD) less Ios icons...), same functions (OMG smart stay by LG), exactly same camera interface...
Come on guys. Nexus 4 is already better than G, even if it's a LG... 4 month to wait and tegra4/a15/others will come. And you will change your phone, just like you always do. :)

Well, you are forgetting about HTC's ONE X+ here. And (this is post festum as benchmarks were available just today) that HTC has done great job updating ONE X to JB. Of course SIII still has some advantages over ONE X, but now HTC is far more competitive. Really it can overthrove SIII on quite few areas. Just my opinion. Things now are not so easy to judge in SIII favour. And don't forget about ASUS and its PadPhone2.

it really made me laugh, the last sentence that says that optimus G will snatch the throne from S3... the biggest drawback of optimus G is its poor browsermark n i guess most people buy smartphones to browse internet more than to talk or play games or watch videos thus it is still inferior to S3 while they chose ICS for thz rather than JB n god knows when JB for thz will be out as LG never produce early updates... again S3 is a winner here...

My experience with LG phones is HORRIBLE!!. I bought an LG Nitro HD and it started giving me a lot of reboots and other problems. Adding to my agony, the customer support is very very poor. Also, the build quality is flimsy. I sold it off and happily using a Samsung Galaxy Note now. Samsung betters in Software and Customer Support.

Not really fair, just like comparing it to the iPhone 5, S3 was out in June, almost 1/2 year off.

z, 28 Oct 2012thank goodness i picked i5 over S3. dont need to worry abou... moreActually you've pick up an out dated hardwares phone even before it gone on sales. Apple fans are like frog in the well, without reliasing the world has change when it has changed.
Apple fans also pathetically poor people. With their very shallow pockets, they can only afford to purchase 1 new phone in 1 or maybe 2 years. This is no good to America and Europe already deep shit economy.

And so LG comes out with the latest and greatest tech first. But wait; remember to Optimus 2X(first dual core on the market), and then the S2 came along and blew it out of the water. So what the LG has some of the best hardware right now. when everyone starts making use of Cortex A-15 cores and new gen GPU's this chipset will be old news. A-15 Exynos and Tegra chips anyone...?!
