I would recommend Samsung Nexus S if you want a pure Android device. If you want a customized UI, then I would say Samsung Galaxy S.

[Q] S3 LTE, Nexus 4 or Optimus G?

Hello guys! I have recently decided to buy a new phone, and after some searching on the internet, I cannot decide between the following phones (they all have the same price from where I buy them): Optimus G, Nexus 4 and Galaxy S3 LTE. I would go for the nexus because of the fast updates coming from Google and the powerful hardware, but I don't like that it has the buttons on the screen and I would really like an LTE phone because it is more future reliable. I like the Optimus G and the S3, but I can't decide between them. I like both interfaces, they have similar hardware, and also the storage is much bigger. I don't think that the Nexus has enough storage.
So, in conclusion, I would like a phone that will receive updates (like 4.4 kitkat) and that has a nice interface and powerful hardware. So which one should I choose? Thank you in advance.
Wrong forum this is not S3 LTE forum

Hello,
My friend, please stay away from HDC, they are really nice looking clones but their hardware and quality is the worst!
I have the HDC s4 Legend, HDC s4 Spark, and the Note 3, they all are perfect and exact 1:1 replica clones visually, they even come with the samsung logo in and accept all samsung accesories which is a nice touch. BUT hear this:
They lie in ALL their product specs, i mean ALL.
First, i bought the HDC S4 and they promised a exynos processor, it was really a mtk6589 with the hardware hacked to show as an exynos. battery life lasted like 4 hours at most.
Then i bought the HDC s4 LEgend, very beautiful phone, lighter than the original, BUT they advertised it with WCDMA 850,1900 and 2100, and it only had 2100 so no 3G in North-South america, they also advertised it with 2gb ram and it only had 1gb. 16 gb rom and it only had 3gb, and 2600 mah battery and it only had 1,500mah. so i just bought another brick, and gave it to my son to play games.
With the note i bought it as a gift and had the same issue, bad battery etc, so i had to buy original batteries that fixed the battery issue, 3g worked this time, but screen was horrible,
Besides, after showing them evidence that their WCDMA bands were incorrect, they denied it, battery were incorrect, they denied it, CPU RAM , ETC they denied it all, never wanted to make warranty valid, so i lost a good 350 usd in brick phones.
Please save yourself from buying that crap, or buy it at your own risk if you really want a Galaxy clone, these phones (s6) have really poor specs, mtk6582 and 1gb ram (they advertise 2gb) with poor battery life, that's not even mid range by 2015 that's low range, so i really recomend buying other brands, from other reliable sellers, with a hell lot of better specs and hardware for just 20 usd difference in price range.
i Recomend, Elephone p7000, any other THL phone, those have an amazing quality, i just bought a Kingzone z1, and that phone is a beast.
so stay away from HDC and buy from honest sellers who advertise the REAL sspecs like, antelife.
Regards
Hey... thanks my friend. Very helpfull post.
