    Can't accept the facts made by GSMArena? That's your problem.

Therefore, the Note 3 which will be released this year will be the direct competitor of your G Pro. You must be nervous that your G Pro will be eating dust against the Note 3.

            all reviews agreed g pro beats your note2 in overall spec. and performance!

            The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 vs LG Optimus G Pro battle has come to an end, so it’s time to see which phablet scored more points.
            In this battle the two smartphones ended as tie when it came to Connectivity options, because they are both bringing the same features.
            The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 was better when it came to Operating System and Memory, winning two rounds against the Optimus G Pro, courtesy of the TouchWiz Nature UX user interface and its 128 GB of storage. Two points for the Samsung phablet.
            The LG Optimus G Pro scored four points outmatching the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 in the Display, Processor, Camera, and Dimensions rounds, because it features a full HD display, the powerful Snapdragon 600 SoC, a 13 megapixel camera, and because is smaller and lighter than the Samsung phablet.
            With all these being said, the LG Optimus G Pro wins the battle against the Samsung Galaxy Note 2. But maybe you think otherwise. Maybe the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 IS BETTER in YOUR OPINION .

              Optimus G PRO is the direct competitor of Note2.

              Optimus G2( NOT optimus G PRO2) is the direct competitor for S4.

                Lg never beat the super note 2
                S pen, multi window ,battery life,
                User friendly and what else you
                Need from a phablet.

                Every device is not perfect
                Time lead the way to a better device
                And give devices to better options
                But no device can be perfect
                Lg not even a better device
                They forgotten this is a PHABLET.
                Just screen size not make a phablet
                And it also need good softworks and more
                Than that
                Samsung done it but LG I don't think so

If the Optimus G and your G Pro ate dust against the S4 in benchmarks, what more if it was the Note 3 which is even a bigger beast than the S4? Like I said earlier, your G Pro is not even available in the market yet, then why keep dreaming of the G Pro 2 which might not even be on the drawing board yet, lol! Obviously, you can't accept the facts.

                      Without the S Pen integrated right on the device, your s pen will always be in danger of getting misplaced or lost.
                      GSMArena have conducted an unbiased battery test that clearly shows your device battery longevity and undeniably shows that it is inferior.
                      The glittery back cover is very feminine so it's a big turn off for men.
                      LG might be working on a new software update but they always lag behind Samsung for the update release.

                          s4 will be the loser in performance and design.

                          samsung phones are ugly cheap design on the planet!

                          lg is by very far far far better than cheap samsung phones.

                              G pro is a direct competitor of note2.

                              Optimus G2 is the counterpart of S4.

                              Optimus G2 will be announced in IFA event 2013.

Keep dreaming until 2013 when your G Pro 2 comes. Whereas Note 3 will be coming this year that will surely trump your LG as shown by the Note 2's smaller sibling the Galaxy S3.

                                        Bear in mind that the Galaxy Note lineup usually have superior hardware and software package than its smaller sibling.
