Just received a price list from EE business stating the G4 will be no longer be sold from the end of June.
Anyone else know if other providers are stopping sale of the G4?
The end is nigh!

Fnac in Portugal isn't selling anymore. I bought it in another store with a 100€ discount. So I guess they are removing it from the market

EoL?
Don't say that! I have only had my G4 for about two weeks.
Just b/c a retailer stops selling a device doesn't mean it has reached EoL, it is only a year old, it will still receive Android N-it is a flagship.
Well lg g5 is out, so what did you expect. Still i hope that there will be update at least on android N..
G3 is older and it's still supported from LG...
Inviato dal mio Nexus 7 utilizzando Tapatalk
I am certain the G4 will get Android N but any major Android version after that will be questionable.
G2: JB->KK->L->EoL
G3: KK->L->M->EoL
G4: L->M->N->EoL
G5: You can work it out...
LG seem to be consistent when upgrading flagships, unlike some other OEMs e.g. Sony.

Hello guys,
I am just wonding if G2 will have a price cut, now that the G3 is announced. Will this happen soon or when G3 is on the market next month?
I believe it will be a good deal to buy, since G3 is not so much of an upgrade
thanks

It might get a price cut, though not that soon, I believe. The goal is to keep the G2's price very close to the G3 so that new customers opt for the newer, only slightly more expensive G3.
UK G2 has been "cheap" for some time. Genuine SIM free versions for well below £300 from several proper retailers (not the hideous grey market stuff). A lot of phone for the money.

There is a red version of the G2 (16 GB) on mobileshop.eu for 351 euros.
The LG g3 is a lot more expensive here in Denmark than the G2 is. There's a difference of almost 300-350 dollars.

Moto G2 is set to be announced on the September 4 event internationally, Indian announcement to follow on September 5 at New Delhi. It was a question whether Motorola would discontinue the moto g in favor of G2. Flipkart now announced that they are conducting the sale [of the] last stock of Moto G. So it is confirmed that the Moto G will be discontinued and its place will be taken by the Moto G2.
Moto G has been hugely successful in India. Moto announced that it sold over 1 million handsets through Flipkart till June. Moto is now the 4th biggest smartphone company in India, ahead of Nokia. They achieved this by just 3 handsets, most of the nmbers is because of Moto G.
Moto recently slashed Moto G’s price by Rs.2000 due to recent increase in competition (read Xiaomi Mi 3 and Asus Zenfone 5), making it more attractive for buyers and a nicer deal. Moto G 8gb model recently got out of stock recently and have not been replenished till now. It is to be expected that it was the last stock of Moto G 8gb version. Now, with Flipkart’s ‘Get yours before it’s gone!’ sale, it might be your last chance to get a Moto G.
Moto G2 has been in news and leaks for some time. In case you don’t know, G2 is said to feature a 5-inch 720p display with the same snapdragon 400 processor coupled with 1GB ram. Camera units might be a 5 or 8 megapixel primary with 2 megapixel secondary. It is also said to feature dual front speakers like the htc One. The price might be slightly higher than the Moto G.
Moto G 16gb is set to go out of stock soon and will be permanently unavailable soon. Flipkart is also offering 50% off on Moto G accessories in favor of clearing out stock. It is the best and last time you can get your Moto G, Buy it now or never!

I suppose the good news is that Moto G 2 appears to be essentially the same hardware as Original Moto G. That should mean it won't take much more work for Motorola to create versions of Android 'L' that work on both devices.
I don't care if this or that is discontinued, I just wish my little fellow gets a taste of Android L... Hope to see a new notification saying "New system update available".. That's all I want.. :crying:
Android L will be the last system update for moto g for sure.. In the future, when android M and N comes out, we will have to look at Cyanogen to have a new custom firmware...
Well,this is sad,because this device is highly known and a great quality device. I think it deserves to get android L at least,and for future updates we cant rely on Cyanogenmod,because currently do not have a high support. I dont know who this guy Ethan Chen is,but i know that dhacker is a great dev,and his support was better. I'm 99.9% shure that he would port L and future updates if he was an offical maintainer.
So in conclusion,we just need barebone android L image and the majority of us will be satisfied.
The Moto G will get the Android L upgrade and i guarantee it. Motorola is still not fully with Lenovo yet. And i read since that Moto's software is near AOSP it should be easy for them to upgrade us soon, but since the Moto G2 is coming out we may get it like a week or two later. Remember how we got kitkat on December 24 even though Motorola said it was coming early 2014 or something like that?
bummer... many people have bought moto g on my recommendation. they are going to kill me.
lets hope android l is in cards and custom roms continue to flourish... cant upgrade my phone yearly

That's true, since this is a worldwide well known device, it should receive L, because it would be a great hit between customers. But if you think, maybe if falcon is discontinued, for Motorola won't be necessary to upgrade the device to L since moto g won't be available anymore.
But, if Motorola wants to be recognized as one of the best device maintainers talking about updates, they must consider upgrade falcon to L. Then, Motorola users, with no doubt, will gen a moto in the future instead of buying another phone.
Larger screen on g2 with same resolution translates to lower PPI. Only significant change is the camera.
I actually bought the g for the smaller screen and 720p quality . I already have the s3 and s4 which are slightly uncomfortable to hold in one hand due to their larger screens . I also have the moto e which is as good as the g. You won't find much difference in the moto g and e for daily use except if you need the front camera for video calls then moto g does not have it . Sorry for being slightly OT .
moto g will get android l

They aren't discontinuing it until they release the Moto G2. So it isn't like you won't be able to get one for the same similar price and hardware.

Yes, and the Moto G2 is coming out in a few weeks. So there is no great loss. This is what happens when new generations of phones come out.

Sure. But if the phone size itself is the same, I think most people will be fine with it.
So one company announces it will stop selling Moto G's in favour of the G2 and the community think that is equivalent to the G being discontinued? Oh, by the way, here in the UK, carphone warehouse have listed the Moto G in their stores as "new". Just for the record.

The Pre order already started here in Israel . to who that pre order the device will get additional battery and one accessory.
shipping in the first week of april,but I know that there is a big chance that it will start shipping the last week of march because of the big demand of the Galaxy S7 here.

Hand a chance to play some hours with G5 with the final software.
*Very fast
*Feels very cheap compared to my S7E.
*interface is more "vanilla" then previous G'series and Galaxy.
* had a time to compare the cameras. very close, couldn't decide which is better. but the colors are more warm at S7E.
*A locking mechanism to the removable part. It feels like it will have a problem after an heavy usage of the device.

The G6 goes on pre-order in India, starting Monday. http://www.lg.com/in/lgg6
While this one comes with 64GB onboard storage, there is no mention of the Quad DAC. However, couple of local news sources do refer to the Quad DAC.
Does anyone know for sure if the G6 sold in India comes with the Quad DAC or not?
I have the LG V20. Thinking of selling it off and upgrading to the G6. Will come as a rude shock to find out later that the DAC is missing from the G6!

I'm trying to figure the same. Apparent the Hi-Fi recording that they have mentioned should also include Quad DAC. But you never know... It's sad to see wireless charging and DAC missing.
Seems the Indian version comes with the Quad DAC and 64GB onboard memory. Not bad!

Congrats! I was waiting for the exchange offer, so that I could upgrade from the LG V20. That offer went online today, but the max discount is only Rs 7k. In contrast, when the V20 launched in India in December 2016, I got Rs 17.5k off when I exchanged it for my old Note 4.
Guess I will be holding on to the V20 till the G6 pricing hits the 35k mark, which is what happens with LG flagship phones 5-6 months after release.

You could get up to Rs. 23k on cashify.in for your V20 now or you could wait till V30 releases later this year with Snapdragon 835.
I was disappointed with the bootloop on my V10. Checked in the LG service center, they told me it would cost Rs. 16k for motherboard replacement with warranty of only 3 months. I'll probably replace it on my own with an aftermarket motherboard from aliexpress.

Thanks a ton for the tip! Just sold my S7 Edge on it for 28.5k (which is impressive, since the nearby mobile shops were quoting 23-25k).
And, after agonizing over it for couple of days, I decided to buy the S8+ instead of the G6 -- it also supports 32-bit audio and DSD format. Will sell the LG V20 as soon as I get delivery.
My big disappointment with LG is lack of support, even for their flagship phones. I paid 55k for the V20, and I don't think it is too much to expect at least monthly security patches. The last update I got for the phone was early Jan. Nothing after that.
But yes, will certainly wait for the LG V30... unless the Note 8 is so great, that it leaves me too broke to even think of buying the V30!
EDIT: Here's a good discussion on the DAC in the G6, along with how it compares to the V20 DAC -- https://www.head-fi.org/f/threads/lg-g6-sound-quality.833180/

Hello,
I would like to know when the LG G6+ releases in Europe but i can't seem to find any info on that.
Could someone tell me what the releasedate is in Europe and what the phone is going to cost?
I'm in the market for a new phone, at the moment i have a LG G3 and i think the G6+ is a worthy successor.

Just buy the H870DS model from somewhere like eglobalcentral.eu and you get pretty much everything the + model has bar the extra ram. Given the G6 DS model has 64gb storage and Quad Dac at less than €380 right now, if and when the G6+ launches in Europe you will be looking at a recommended retail price of around €759, pretty much double .....

I'm in the same situation as you, also have a g3 and looking for a replacement...
I would have bought the g6 already, but i hate that it has only 32gb of space (i like to mod my phone and always have a twrp backup on it) :/
DS falls out of the picture because of locked bootloader and no official support for this variant in europe in respect to warranty...
And now i'm waiting for g6+. I think/hope it will arrive to europe in a month.
But if the price will be to high, I will probably wait to see v30 specs and price to decide
