    Cool Help in Buying a New Device Options are LG G3, Moto X Pure/Samsung GS5

    my G2 Touch is going - look like it hear bout the other G2 Dem.., the bottom right has touch spots that are dead


    I am in need of a new device
    my options
    G3 or S5 (locally) and Moto X pure edition (online)
    *Moto X would fit mi requirements for photo and everything else, but so much bad reviews of failing units
    *S5 basically will be a baby step over the G2
    *G3 - i kinda have a rage with branded device, even if i decide to go extreme on a custom Rom
    Comments welcome
    Peace

    Storage isn't a major factor, usable 8-10GB is ok for mi, my main areas of interest is Heavily Photography and Moderate Gaming

    so Motor X Pure Ed 16GB would be ok

    You said photography. Then the moto x will be out of this one.

    Gaming is definitely LG G3, aside from the gaming you have a large screen so it's easier to view videos and pictures are better than okay, the S5 might have a better camera.

    The LG G3 has a bigger battery also and has a loud speaker and rings loud as well. Also it comes with a 3GB if you are instead in the 32 GB version.

    The AT&T version has all the LTE bands that are being used by our providers

    To me Moto X was a rushed to Market phone... on average I got about 5 units to repair monthly.. Either hardware of software failure...
    People don't bring them in anymore as they have stopped buying them...
