Good: looks good

Bad: know LG quality issues

Comment: @Takeshima, Please don't troll CNET, any amount of sense would tell you to look at the Play store for prices, they clearly state the prices. £239 for the 8GB, £279 for the 16GB, incase you can't figure out how to do it, here's the link:

Good: Everything! 1) Epic Processor 2) 2GB RAM 3) Android 4.2 4) Wireless Charging 5) £280 for 16 GB.....WHO WOULD BE STUPID ENOUGH NOT TO BUY THIS!!?

Bad: Emm, nothing apart from no 4G!

Comment: A lot of people are making a big deal about the fact there is no MicroSD crad slot. Personally, I would never exceed 16 GB so that isn't a problem for me. My only gripe would be that there is no 4G LTE capabilities. But I think there is DC-HSDPA on it, so not so bad!
I say this is a must have! I am getting it this holiday season and that is for sure.

Good: Unmodified Android

Bad: Nothing I know of.

Comment: Its a little misleading to say Nexus devices always run a 'basic' version of Android. I would say they run a standard, unmodified, official version of Android.

I won't even consider a non-Nexus Android device because the manufacturers ruin the Android OS with their own junk & modifications.
