    is there any online store in europe delivering these to ireland sim free? was looking at a m8 or s5 but this looks to be a better phone what with its insane screen (and the 3gig ram spec one would be delightful :D)

    found this, reputable website?

    Not to burst your bubble mate but ALL the ones sold in Europe come with only 2GB of RAM :-(

    why is this phone so sparsely stocked in comparison to say the m8 or s5? surely theres a market for a powerhouse with tech savvy people?

    570€ish not Inc delivery so ball park 600 all in I think.

    It's just not popular here where the m8 and s5 would be. Just the way it is in the Irish market

    Just a heads up people LG's warranty is country specific so if you import from Germany the phone will have to go back there to be repaired.

    Have mince since Friday and it is indeed a cracking phone the problem with mine is the screen seems to be more "yellow" in the top left corner.

    The other annoyance with it is manually having to tell it to connect to lte each time the phone restarts other wise it'll stay on 3G :(

    Wouldn't worry too much about the yellow, it's probably just glue and you shouldn't notice it in a few weeks. Also I bought my G2 in Germany and then sent it to the UK to fix the screen. No problems.

    How did you manage that was on to LG this morn and they point blank refuse to deal with it saying the warranty is only valid in the country of purchase.

    Probably because it was not covered by warranty.

    anyone tried this and say an s5 or m8, would ye recommend it over them for any particular reason? does the bigger resolution make the phone more sluggish?

    I see....as I thought the 32GB didn't have it....thought you needed to buy an extra\additional back plate to enable wireless charging.....

    Wikipedia page says that the phone comes with QI charging, except in certain asian markets.

    go into the phone, type *#*#4636*#*# - phone options and change the radio to include LTE. back button and 4g becomes an option.

    This doesnt work, at least for me, since Lollipop OTA.
    The following does seem to work though, need to test when I am in a 4G area:

    For model d855, dial 3845#*855# then choose :

    LTE Only -> Modem Settings -> RAT Selection

    Choose : GSM / WCDMA / LTE Auto

    This is what i have been using but not very practical and has to be redone everytime the phone is restarted or powered off.
    Shocked there is not more uproar by lg users on this basic essential toggle that is missing

    How is your phone for reception and battery? Bit disappointed batterywise compared to my previous phone (oneplus one)
