21 March 2013
Back in 2011 the smartphone landscape was seemingly starting to settle, when Samsung stirred things up by taking a wild leap with the original Galaxy Note. The 5.3" slate was called a...

    I'd guess it would be too much like right to figure you'd have a proper match between the G Pro and the S4.And maybe for giggles and grins,those two and the HTC One.
    But that's just me.

The good news is that the 1080p screen and the Snapdragon S600 don’t seem to consume more power overall, so with the Optimus G Pro you get the benefits of better hardware without any impact on power consumption.
            Conclusion (Excellent)

I am currently typing with one hand that I had adjusted to where I want it. The Note 2 even have a floating keyboard that you can position anywhere in the screen.
                        That 50 hrs of G Pro battery life that you boast is pathetic compared to the Note 2's 69 hrs in the endurance test which is almost 30% more. In fact my Note 2's battery last for 2 days with heavy use. If you are happy to say that G Pro is Sexier then so be it. I don't want a glittery girly looking phablet with no integrated S Pen.

                            Better do not talk about Note3.
                            They are both not yet released ...

                            Why are you so disperate ?????
                            The mere fact you are trying to compare G pro to Note3? Seems you know that G pro beats your Note2.

                              G pro is far better than Note2 .
                              Narrower and you can Also adjust the keypad/keyboard for Typing so it is more easier to use just one hand.
                              LG 's G pro has more better new features to offers and better performances.
                              G pro actually did an excellent battery life
                              Almost 21 hours of talk time and that's overall second placer in GsmArena's battery chart.
                              Almost 7hours of web browesing.
                              almost 9hours of video playback(and still 10%of battery )
                              Overall 50hours of Endurance rating is IMPRESSIVE considering its VERY BIG FULLY 1080HD Display.

                              So stop comparing your Note2.

                                  Anonymous, 26 Mar 2013 note2 has thicker % wider button than sexy G pro. that's... moreThat's right. Note 2's body is definitely bigger but only by few millimeters which is barely noticeable. The thickness of both devices are exactly the same.
                                  Note 2's width is bigger by only 4.4mm, and its length is longer by .9mm. That's barely noticeable. Do you know how to read a caliper or even just a simple tape measure? Why do you make it such a big deal when the difference is not even reaching more than a centimeter?
