Anyone know if I can use the LG Spectrum with another calling service? I just don’t care for Verizon.

you people are so stupid, you don’t know jack, this phone has the best specs, hands down, period and it is the leader in HD, we shall see how well the Galaxy Nexus go up against this baby, time will tell, the same goes with HTC Resound, if they don’t go down as a company because of the suit Apple won against them. You fail to realize, you don’t speak for the majority of people who don’t find fault in everything they see, nothing is 100% perfect, so get over it…

I got mines the other day at verizon! The screen is so beautiful that it is some what mezmorizing lol!! I played around with several other phones but after looking at the display on this phone i diddnt even want look the display on other most of the other phones. Many complain about the UI but i have no problems with it and i have experienced viturally no lag! Web pages and videos load fast! The battery life for me is great. One gets me through the day!

Love my Rezound, and the Dev community is all over it. If you don’t mind the heft…everything else rocks.

Based on what I saw at CES, there won’t be anything better on the horizon for at least 3-6 months anyway.

This phone is not a nexus so let get on the right subject im sick of reading nexus because you literally can’t read about any phones for people talking about nexus

Well maybe just the price difference alone would be the draw to this phone. $199 for new phone is much more attainable to those w/ tight wallets than $299. Specwise it looks ok. I have never had an LG phone so I can really comment on the build quality.

High quality screen, price point, form factor and possibly decent battery life are significant for many to consider this phone, maybe not many of us here but it may do ok.

It has the highest specs currently available. What more do you want? Price and preference are the only differences in any high-end phone now being released.

Which is why LG (or any of the non-Big 3) needs to have something unique that levels the playing field. But every spec offered on this phone is found on other phones already available. If I have the choice to buy similarly spec’d phones from Moto, Samsung, HTC and LG, I’m probably putting LG at the end of that list.

Additionally, it seems that LG went with the “There’s only so much you can put into them” mindset when designing this phone, and that IMO, is why there is no significant draw to this phone.
