Goodbye LG O2x - LG Optimus 2x

Hello,
I have to say goodbye to the Optimus 2x community. This evening i just sold my phone and i bought a new HTC Evo 3D. I sold it for 350$ and i bought the Evo for the same money (i got a big discount from a shop here in Romania). The Evo is new, unused, bought from the shop, not second-hand.
Did i make a good choice? What do you say?

Hard to say. I'm pretty happy with my Optimus 2X after having rooted it this saturday.

In Romania, it costs ~ 500$ (+/- 100$).
Indeed my phone was 3 months old, without any scratch etc.

Spec of the HTC Evo 3D looks very good. Worse still camera/video it seems but good spec Haven't read a review.
Considering you got it for the same price... well done (I take it you didn't have to take a contract to get it at that price?)
Anyway... at the end of the day.. what's the worst that can happen? You sell it and then try another phone if you don't like it?

Nope, no contract.

Wow. I checked the UK prices, and looks like you got a very good deal

you can get the HTC EVO 3D in every "Media Markt" (something like a german Best Buy) for 269 EUR = 342 Dollar without any additional discounts^^
you can even buy it online...

BUT
the lg optimus speed/2x costs exactly the same (even the white version)
http://www.mediamarkt.de/mcs/catentry/P990-Optimus-Speed-braun,48353,286553,248431.html

htc phones are so complicated. it is very much subject to be bricked.

I don't know about France but in Sweden the prices seem to land at about 530 Euros and the date are different from store to store. Sometime in march would be my guess..
How can you say nothing coming from Samsung? The galaxy s2 on paper specs blow the doors off of everything yet announced. Mali400, Sammy dual core, 1gig ram, samoled plus and all the rest. Thinnest phone, 18% power cunsumption on display, etc. Unless touchwiz or rfs lag it out it should be king. Samoled now is my favorite display. Without pentile it will be even better. The LG as well already announced a real 3d display phone with a screen much like the one on the ds3d handheld.
The ox2 is a great phone no doubt (probably better than the atrix) but to say its the only thing going is simply not true.

I think I will be getting it as well. I'm thinking about a 1 year contract or otherwise without a contract

How much did you pay for your G2X?

Release date coming tomorrow! Let's figure out the cheapest way to purchase one. Please post the following:
1. How much you paid
2. Where you ordered or purchased
3. If you used full or partial upgrade or no contract extension.
4. Any discounts applied and how you acquired said discounts.
I think the cheapest I've seen is wirefly, they have it for $150 on a 2yr contract, but it won't ship until the 20th.

Personally, I'm looking to use a partial upgrade as I am 13 months into a 2 year contract. I have seen people get amazing deals using various methods. I'm hoping to get it for around $250.
I'm looking to possibly purchase for full price and use on AT&T, so please include any deals on full retail prices.
3700 danish kr... about 500 dollars. Without contract.
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
900kr + 450kr x 6 months (3600 kr = 699USD). This includes 5gb data, 2 hours of talk, free sms and mms. I think it was a rather good deal, in Danish context.
@Thomasmj86
500USD ~2500kr
Does this phone have an easily unlocked bootloader? My friend asked if I would recommend this, and I was unsure how to respond. He is a T-mobile USA user.

I read somewhere that LG has no plans to lockdown bootloaders unlike HTC with the Sensation and other new phones.
FYI, this thread is for t-mobile g2x prices, not lg optimus 2x...
thanks, where did you buy yours??
I have a partial upgrade (13 months in a 2 year contract) and it is showing $349 for me. A little more than I wanted to pay but I think I'll go for it.
I paid £379.99 cos my contract isn't up for another 1yr 3 mth and couldn't wait that long for this phone, gave my desire to the girlfriend
got mine off ebay here

Witha 2-years contract and rebates from both LG and my carrier, I got mine for €129 (~USD180). Bargain of the century.

yea it is... but there are no forums yet for the G2x.....

O2X available for £329.99 @ Play

Bloody good price for it SIM free: http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/...d-Sim-Free-Unlocked-Mobile-Phone/Product.html
yeah saw that, its a damn good price! Its slightly annoying as i just signed up a new contract for the following:
Orange network, 300mins/unlimited text/unlimited email/500MB data with LG optimus 2x for free and that is £17.50 p/m! which i guess isnt really bad at all.. sim only is around £15 or £20 for that tarrif and i get a top phone! .
Im hoping i love this phone(when it arrives) as much as my HTC HD2, LG Renior and the LG u8130!
EUR 412.49 for me. Still a dang good price, though! I paid almost 50 euro more.
That is outstanding value!
nice..even if I payed a little bit less
good! In Italy find low price with trovaprezzi.it
That sure is a excellent price, I pre-ordered mine for £400 sim free. Should of waited for the price to drop first, but when I see something I want, I just have to get it.

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

4X HD price dropped

4X HD price dropped by US$38 exactly 1 month after launch here to coincide with the price drop of Moto What kind of marketing strategy is this? First time I ever bought a LG smartphone and I feel frustrated though I am happy with my 4X.
What about other countries? Is there a price drop? The 4X is selling at approximately US$602 here from yesterday.
It's 438e here, about 538 dollar. Dropped here a bit as well few days ago
Lg 4x hd p880
Portugal >>>>> LG Maximo 4X HD >>>>>650€
Poland >>>>> LG Swift 4X HD >>>>>>>1 999 zł (490€)
Mine cost me 2 299 zł, I'm living in Poland, price dropped too but, here things are a little weird... my other phone, LG GC900 cost me in 2010
1700 zł, 3 months later the price was 1800zł...
Comparing both phones the P880 is not much more expensive :laugh:

I'm wondering where you saw the LG Swift 4X HD at that price in Poland.
In physic stores the cheapest I found was in Euro-AGD, where I bought mine. On the Internet the cheapest I found was in CENEO.pl and the lowest price its 1894,39 zł, converting, its 464.31€ (themoneyconverter.com).
You have a secret dealer or you miss the conversion?
I bought my 4X in RTV EURO AGD too, 1999zł, that lowest price is from allegro.pl
Today it's on sale for 389€ in Germany. I bought mine for 479€ only 4 weeks ago.
Where do you see that price dude? Amazon still sells it for 439

I see you're from Belgium about my area. The price you quote is probably CoolBlue.
Which is AFIAK the only "store" whom actually has it. Fnac groenplaats, the phone house (wijnegem shopping center), Allo Telecom Nationalestraat don't have it. Fnac only had the Prada phone though.
Perhaps we could meet and share experiences. I´m too interested in buying one. Though I just wait a bit because I expect the price to come down more when the 4X HD's successor will be revealed in September.
Then it'll be either the 4X or the new kid on the block (if it also can record calls which I absolutely require).
If interested Pm me.
Dropped about $20 in Australia. Waiting for it to drop a bit more. I may snap one for myself
That's sucks. I bought mine three weeks ago for 480 euros.
@Winudert: Yeah that sucks indeed. I've seen them advertised on Amazon.de for 435 euro's. Expect the price to fall down evenb more when (the few) shops starts ditching them in preparation for new stock (either iPhone 5, the win 8 Nokia's or the 4x HD's sucessor).
The weird thing is that I first had my interest on the Nokia 808 pureview (which I presumed would fall in price quickly after release). That device kept it's high price though. While I've seen HTC One X for 519 euro (now back up to 529 euro).
Anyway. The 4X HD seems atm the best price for a big-screen, quad-core android device. A pity that there still are a few niggles that LG should have been fixed from the O2X like the missing notification light.
I understand that there are 3rd party solutions to fix this. But you need to root your phone first. If LG put something similar in the official firmware then we wouldn't need to hack our phones for such a trivial thing. Not to mention that I can't imagine a little LED costing so much.
