Best place to buy LG g2

[vivekreddyp]

have been following every thread on g2 here.. I want to own this device...
But I am confused whether should I buy at carrier outlet or as suggested before in any online website (I started a thread before for review regarding this phone)..

Should I buy at carrier outlet will they have their branding even though I buy it outright without any carrier contracts... Will the device get guarantee and warranty outside US that is I alway travel from one place to another that is y I don't like any contracts

So where should I. Get this device

I have the same questiosn pretty much. Is Negri Electronics a good place to buy unlocked LG G2? They have an unlocked G2 for T-Mobile but i am worried that it wont work properly.

If we buy at negri electronics will they give any warranty and guarantee for the device and also what are the differences between international variant and other models in US
Which one is better to buy if we travel to another country

I am debating buying on negri because if everything goes right perfect but if for some reason the phone is giving you problems or you simply dont like it you are screwed. Their re stocking fees are pretty high and the return window is very small.

If we buy at local store or carrier outlet will we still get the same bloatware etc.... Or we'll get device without any carrier branding and their bloatware

 

[dportal2006]

You will get bloatware for sure. But im not worried about that. I always root and delete that crap.

 

[vivekreddyp]

For not getting any bloatware.. Which is the best place to buy this phone apart from negri electronics... Does international version contains any bloatware...... Where can we get this internatiomal version

Best Buy currently has these on sale for $99, and they will send you a $50 Best Buy Rebate in the mail, so you are really just paying $49.

Agreed with above posting... I just purchased mine at Best Buy yesterday for 99$ for the VZW version. Also note that purchasing here vs. VZW Store, you will not have to pay the $30 upgrade fee and you also get 14 days to try it out without any penalty/fees to return it if you don't like it.

I did not trade in my old phone because I will get more just selling it here/ebay/craigslist... so I just bought the upgrade and a screen protector, about $125 total for everything out the door (I live in NH, no sales tax).

Not sure how long the sale is going on for but for getting the phone for $99 is totally worth it, same price as Amazon and you don't have to wait for shipping

ABRMess006: if I come up for renewal, you are saying I could go into BestBuy and stay on my plan, and get the phone for $99? That's crazy good.

As long as you are not on an unlimited data plan, but if you have more than one line and one of them is not unlimited, you can transfer your upgrade to the one that does not have unlimited and upgrade that phone then move the IMEIs so you have the new G2 on your line

At least that is what I did. Absolutely love the new G2!

Yes, like I said though, I am not sure how long Best Buy is planning on running this promotion but I would take advantage of it while it lasts... On my family plan, my sister used my upgrade back in March due to her phone breaking so I used hers this time. As long as there is an upgrade available on the account, you can use an alternative upgrade, just have account holder info ready Also, as I said before, no $30 mandatory upgrade fee that VZW stores charge at Best Buy, and no restocking fee if you don't like the phone. So you have 14 days to try it out, worst case, return it and get your money back... Good luck!
