Lg Thrill 4G hitting stores this Sunday!!!! For AT&T

Looks like the wait is over... for everyone excited about getting the US version of the optimus 3D you will be happy to know there will be no more delays...
I visited the radioshack store where I placed my pre-order weeks ago... the manager informed me they just recieveid word from att to expect their shipment for the Sunday release..
The delays were apparently due to three factors if I remember corectly.... one as noted by several phone reviewers there was a small defect on select devices rendering a yellowish hue on the bottom of the screen... also LG was supposed to have a manufacturers deal with Corning, the makers of Gorilla Glass... the deal was somehow last second at risk and LG was pondering having to raise the price on the phone... finally they were going to give the Thrill an OTA update to Gingerbread... but decided on releasing it with the latest OS right off the bat.
Those of you who may remember LG promised about the optimus 3D that the gingerbread update would contain the ability to give any app created with OpenGL to take advantage of the 3D glasses free display... even if it had not been programmed to do this from the app creators... hopefully this ability will crossover into the identical cousin the Thrill...
So great news for all you patient upgraders and smartphone junkies... your wait is over!!!

I have an upgrade available and currently still debating on weather to get this phone or wait for the SGSII....

they're selling it for $29 at Costco at some locations in the South.
YMMV though.

Stopped at radioshack where I preordered it... I was the only one... haha they could sell it to me today but I left my giftcard at home... I will pick it up tomorrow... it still had froyo on it and it was surprisingly thin and lightweight... I really liked it... superr fast!!!! Everyone in the store wanted to play with it hahaha...

is the screen gorilla glass?

costco 29.99 and free accesories...I picked it up 2 days ahead of time...I think the gingerbread release will make the phone better.It feels slugish compared to my inspire..but love it...I know custom roms will make this greater...

Looks good to me. I may get one. I have an upgrade due.

Wait for the SGS2 (supposedly coming in two weeks on the 18th) then play with both in store.
I came from a Captivate and had an Infuse for two weeks before returning it for the Thrill. I was contemplating the same thing, but there were two factors that did it for me.
Memories in 3D - I took a test picture of my daughter at the store and was sold from that moment. She's two years old, and while handsets with better 3D capabilities are forthcoming, she won't be two forever. Since I'm pretty sure all TVs in the future will eventually be 3D capable, having these pictures is priceless to me, even if the pictures aren't the best. While the SGS2 will definitely be a "hot" phone, it can't ever have 3D capabilities.
Sufficient Specs - While it's not a "beast" in terms of hardware, I thought long and hard over what I really needed. 1GB of RAM on the SGS2 versus 512MB dual channel on the Thrill. I wanted the 1GB of the SGS2, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that for today and the coming months, I would probably never use that much memory. Heck, my Infuse wasn't really experiencing any slowdowns, and that's single core.
So in the end I decided to sacrifice "cutting edge" (which in reality is still like 6 months old) for 3D capabilities.
I'd recommend that you try them both out, if you're not in a hurry.
I thought I'd miss the screen of the Infuse a lot, and while it was a great screen, it doesn't bother me as much as I thought it would. Your mileage may vary.

From what I'm told, no. The AT&T store had a pack of three screen protectors for $10, so I picked them up along with a case when I returned my Infuse.

Got my LG Thrill yesterday and I hoped it would be a replacement for my iPhone 4. I like it so far but compared to my iPhone 4 its about the same.
I too want to see a Thrill section as well.
thnx.

Thanks for clarifying that it is not gorilla glass......time to get a screen protector

Tried to sell my Thrill :) and had a hilarious phone call

So I tried to sell my thrill, after having chosen the atrix after a day or two of comparing them in hand
I got one call that really made me angry
I was lowballed all the way to $320 for a pretty much brand new thrill [every sticker still on phone, a few minutes talk time, very careful and very cautious testing as to keep the phone in mint new condition]
The guy said "No one cares about LG"
and "no one cares about the thrill"
I asked why he wanted it, and he said "his wife"
I told him it was ridiculous to sell it for $320 when new inspires [HTC] sell for $250 and new atrix sell for $320, and why in the world would I sell a phone that is only a week old and dual core with a 4.3 inch screen for the same price?
He said it was stupid and that if he wanted to spend more he'd buy an iphone 4 for $340, to which I told him the iphone 4 won't even be worth $250 when the iphone 5 comes out. he then replies that's what 3gs is worth and I'm pretty much laughing..
then he starts saying, he doesn't care, and the best phone anyways is the sensation, the only phone worth buying is the sensation
to which I say the G2X is better than the sensation in everyway and that the thrill is a lot like the G2X...
anyways, he got really mad that I wouldn't take $320 for the phone new. I told them that on ebay they are $410 buy it nows and he said 'no one cares about ebay, ebay's dead"
anyways..funny..very funny.
i know someone will buy it eventually. i'm only asking $370 for it brand new with the car charger case screen protector etc

I would have laughed in his face and told him I was going to post this on the internet for the WIN!
LOL funny story though

Do you have his number? i will sell him mine for $320

Why would you guys sell it while you're still in the 30 day return window? Definitely worth at least $400 at this point on Craigslist, but you can buy it for $450 new without a commitment so you shouldn't expect to get more than that.

I bought mine for $330 and using with H20 wireless from craigslist

according to him, yes.
mind you I don't sell on ebay, always get burned
but according to him, ebay, the biggest auction site in the world, is dead.
he's crazy, I actually got a few offers today and no one lowballed the way he did, I should have the thrill sold tomorrow
hate to see it go, but I can't justify having both the atrix and thrill. will come back later if the lg gb or ics upgrade is crazy good or if a really good rom is at least stable.

I wouldnt say ebay os dead... But it isnt what it was 10 years ago.
Craigslist is the new ebay
ebay is over run with retailers sellung products at a 10% mark up over what you could buy it for elsewhere , taking advantage of unsuspecting fools that do not know better....that and overseas sellers (which i buy from frequently)
you have me tempted to sell mine for real... .$300+ for a $50 investment is almost too good to pass up....and it sure would give me some extra cash for my vegas wedding come 11-11-11

Anyone bought G-note from ebay?

I have yet to see someone claim to have bought e-note from ebay? I see prices as low as $670 dollars (US) including shipping yet no one has reported to have bought one from them. what is the risk involved that people are still paying $740 from other places and no one seems to be taking advantage of new g-notes from ebay at cheaper prices?

I think its fear + ignorance which stops more people getting them from ebay. These things are made pretty close to Hong Kong, so its not suprising how cheap they are buying them from there through ebay. ebay used to be fairly shady too, and I think a lot of people still hold the fear of splashing $700 into a site which they may feel unsure about. However, as many of us know these days, ebay + paypal combined is an insanely safe shopping source. Not only is your sale fully ensured, but the amount of turnover most of these stores do, and the ability to access other shopper's comments does make it a really valuable source.
I'll be getting my note from ebay sometime next week (when the pay comes through), but have previously bought my SGS 1, and asus transformer from there, with NO problems, extremely quick shipping, and hundreds of dollars saved. I always recomend it

thanks for the vote of confidence. I am also thinking about getting my g-note next week through ebay.

Just read through the sellers past feedback. You should quickly see if the seller is reliable. Also read carefully through the description to see if it is new/used/damaged or if the title is wrong and they they are selling a 600$ notebook with a photo of a galaxy on it rather than a phone.
I got mine from eBay.

I bought mine from Ebay I paid 720 for it including shipping that was free. That's 2 Weeks ago prices were much higher.
It was a reputable seller and didn't have any issue the phone is running great

I went through 3 SGN's so far.. One from Amazon.de, One from Ebay.de and one from my Country which was the most expensive one but was worth the local warranty reassurance since I'm keeping this one. Received it today.
The second one from Ebay was a German model, no problems, sold it like I did with the first one from Amazon after I played around abit with it.
Anyway ALWAYS read the FEEDBACK! Even if it's a TOP Rated it means NOTHING! It might be a hacked account or a bad TopRated. Better safe than sorry.
Example: Someone is selling some SGN's in a very attractive price. Check the feedback if another person bought and received a Note from the Seller already. If the listing just came up then check it's feedback for some expensive stuff and not 2-3euros worth of items.
If the Seller has low feedback(<30-50) but it's 100% positive and every buyer is happy with him, then sent him a message first and see. He might be just a regular guy selling a Note.
Yes Ebay and Paypal did help me a couple times and they were very helpful, but Scammers will always be around.

Got mine on ebay for $760 about 3 weeks ago when they first came out. It arrived in a few days without any problem. It turn out to be a Polish model with a with a Polish provider branding.
Just rooted & loaded a custom ROM & now all OK.
I love this phone. Absolutely awesome screen.

Got mine from a Hong Kong ebayer with no problem.

[Q] Should I sell my Pre-order on eBay? ...... J/K

Just for the fun of it I checked out eBay to see what people are asking for the Nexus 6. And I must say I am honestly shocked. The phone is selling for higher overhead than the iPhone 6 Plus was.
Most auctions on eBay are already eclipsing $800 with some as high as $1000 for the 32 GB mode, and these are the ones with the active bidding. I have to admit, for a brief moment, I thought to myself "Hey I could make a quick $300 and then just wait until they are in stock again. Than I realized that even though it would be fiscally advantageous, I just cannot bring myself to give up on the opportunity of owning a brand new Nexus device. I would miss out on playing with the new features and finally having front facing speakers, something I have wanted for what seems like ages now. Not only that but I feel that in doing so I would be taking advantage of all those that were not as lucky as me.
I am just surprised at how much this phone is going for. If you got a pre-order, would you give up the opportunity to use the device for $300+?

No. I need a phone

Well to be honest, if I find out before I receive my pre-order that it doesn't work on Verizon for some reason, I'll probably sell it on Ebay.

I'm pretty sure that was shill bidding. Others had a buy it now price at $800 for the same thing and that listing was still being bid up with 2 days to go.

[Q] Reselling a Nexus 6.

So i'm thinking about selling my nexus 6 on a facebook community buy/sell.
I usually give my devices to my family, but its not needed this time so i'm after some opinions on how much i should be asking for.
The phone is 3-4 months old, i lost the reciept recently but its around somewhere... 32GB, bought outright, so unlocked from any network, in perfect working condition. etc, there's just like maybe, 5 to 6 tiny little dints in the screen from keys in pocket :/. You literally cannot feel them, nor see them when the screen is on and takes certain angles to see them when screen is off (thats the only thing wrong with the phone, which i plan on telling on my post). I paid $876 AUD, do you think i could ask for $400-$500?
Opinions? If you were going to resell, what circumstances would you lower the price for & if you were i, how much would you ask for?

amazon is selling the n6 brand new at 399 for the 32gb version, so your $400-500 would be considered a joke, especially a device with a little bit of damage.

@rhystagram,
Your best bet is to go to Swappa.com and look at recent sold prices.

But Amazon is still selling it for much cheaper brand new. Most prospective buyers will look on Amazon first to see what prices are for both new and used.
What local retailers sell them for brand new means nothing when it can easily be attained somewhere else for a cheaper price.
I normally give people hell on those Facebook groups for asking entirely too much for a phone or tablet. Especially if it is used with even the slightest damage.
For instance, a woman was trying to sell a Droid Maxx for almost $400 USD claiming it was new and never pulled from the box, but her pictures clearly showed otherwise because of the damage on the phone and the fact that it didn't have any of the factory protective film on it anymore. The device in mint condition used only goes for about $150.
Basically, it's better to be fair instead of thinking you can charge top dollar for it. Much less troubles in the long run.
Good luck.

I'm sorry, but how is pointing out the proper process for preparing a Nexus 6 for resale completely missing the point? I'm trying to help you avoid future headaches. ???
If you're looking for resale prices, check completed listings on swappa or eBay.

I agree with checking eBay or local buy/sell/trade sites for prices to get a feel for how much it will cost.
Note this, however: Amazon Australia does not sell the Nexus 6 that I can find. It is true that there was a Prime Day deal today in the states for it (pretty sure it's over now), but Prime Day is only for the US site, not for the international versions.
Plus $500 AUD is $368 ish USD.

Mate. Put it on Gumtree. You could likely get around 400 to 450 bucks for it if it is indeed in the condition you say.
