How many times is this "deal" going to get shilled. They're ex promo units, marked not for sale. LG won't touch them with a barge pole as far as warranty is concerned.

Chatting sh*t.
LG doesn't make the laws in this country.
Warranty is just like any other phone purchase.

They have plenty of stock for the xmas period. It is updated daily.

Never saw that post, would have bought then :disappointed:

£5.05 cashback @ TCB to cancel out the P&P

It's brand new but is Promotional Stock meaning it's missing headphones and extra back cover, manual and is not sealed.

do they ever get the brown one in stock?

Any sign of a deal on a dual sim?

How does the camera compare to the G2 especially in low light/indoors?

just black? or there are another, i want silver or white:|

Out of stock

What's the resale value like with these ? :stuck_out_tongue:

OOS plus this is an EU version and missing accs etc, best to hit up the Ebuyer deal for 50 quid more, UK stock and brand new sealed handsets

We have people saying there is a warranty and others saying there isn't. Mmmm. Troubled times :sunglasses:

I got this deal last Friday and LG confirmed I do have the 2 year warranty as did others who queried it. I'm very happy with my purchase. The money I saved went towards a 200gb micro SD card from Amazon Black friday :smiley:

Why do people bother buying phones outright ?

It's certainly not cost effective for me.

I need 1000 mins, unltd txts and up to 6gb.

I'm better off getting contract - It's cheaper.

I have used SmartFoneStore three or four times in the past and have always been happy with the Grade A phones I purchased. They sent me a locked Samsung Note 3 a year or so ago when I ordered one unlocked, but I was happy with the return process and they refunded me the cost of sending it back.

However, they are clearly using the term "Brand New" loosely if the box does not contain headphones, the extra cover, manual etc. They need to be more transparent about issues such as this as it is easy to ruin a reputation that took years to build.

Also, they really need to monitor current prices better. For example, they are selling a Samsung S6 for £419.99 new when it's on sale at Currys for £349. Anyways, I digress :smiley:

OOS....again

I just got one of these phone delivered on the weekend. I have sent an email to the company asking if they are new, as stated, as I do not think the one I have is new. The box is damaged, no warranty stickers, finger prints on the phone when I opened it. They have neglected my email for 2 days now asking if this product is actually new. I got a LG G3 refurb for my daughter at the same time (from Argos) and everything about that phone looks newer and cleaner than the 'new' phone from these guys.

I bought a Nokia 925 for my ex girlfriend two years ago and we later had to return it because the sim card slot wasn't working. Nokia honoured the two year guarantee and fixed it. Likewise, I got the remainder of the two year warranty for my HTC One M8.

I'm curious as to whether LG would honour the full warranty if it isn't UK/EU stock.

This or a galaxy s6?

In a previous threrad, someone said they buy direct from LG.

I found this one instead: http://www.****/mainproduct.php?pid=28549 (link not working - I'm guessing a banned seller then ??)

Bit dearer at £2835.95 and not sure if UK stock or not. Anyone any experience of Simply Electronics ? I've emailed them and will update if I get a reply.

I want a lot more than 2 months warranty on a new phone! I have emailed LG and when they come back to me I will update you.

This has jumped 100 hot votes since it has been out of stock, talk about sheep voting

That's awesome. The fact its the only flagship that has a replaceable battery and sim makes this a no brainer for me.

I bought this phone yesterday, arrived this morning. Contacted LG who confirmed that I had 2 years warranty with the model I received. No earphones or extra back cover are worth the saving.

Top end phone ?

If so, why bother with the latest spec phone if it's being used for 30 seconds per day ??

On vodafone -

Unltd Mins, Unltd txts + 6gb = £26 after redemption.

http://www.moneysupermarket.com/mobile-phones/brands/lg/g4-black-leather/

Pay as you go sim with this amount in this phone once purchased outright will cost you considerably more.

http://www.moneysupermarket.com/mobile-phones/brands/lg/g4-black-leather/

How's the maths on this deal for you Einstein ?

With my sim I pay £10 p/m (GiffGaff). That 240 for 2 years (non-contracted, so I can change my phone). This phone is £260. That is £500 for 2 years which is MUCH cheaper than what you will pay. People aren't saying you're always wrong but you wondered why someone would buy a phone outright and now you're finding out

But for £10 a month you don't get what a lot of people need.

Giffgaff £18 a month gives you 2000 mins, unl txts & 6gb.

= 24 x 18 = £432
Phone £264.98

Total £696.98.

Yes you can swap sims/diff provider but if giff gaff is the cheapest then you're only going to go up in price !!

Find me something cheaper on pay as you go that's better than contract on the deal I've posted.

Also -

Compare to what you pay £10 a month, you'll get 1000 mins instead of 500 on this deal -

Better off on pay as you go ????

Same here, i got mine tuesday from ordering sunday evening, no "not for resale" markings and lg confirmed 2 years warrenty

Just emailed LG as well, will report back on warranty info

Most ppl have no time for claiming cashback my whole family is giffgaff and i have internet in my house work so i only topup 2/3 months after and never was short of anything i hardly pay 100 a year on topups so i dont need a hefty bill for no reasons

ID mobile £12.50 - 500min 6GB data x24 = £300 + £265 = £565 / 24 = £23.50
no redemption no cash back no sh..t

also every time when you see better offer you can swap

also for 1 year
ID mobile £12.50 - 500min 6GB data x12 = £150 + £265 = £415 / 12 = £34.60

What is your best offer for 12 months ????
Why do you need high end phone if you will use for 2 years ???

Giffgaff £18.00 - 2000min 6GB data x12 = £216 + £265 = £481 / 12 = £40.08

Your best offer for 12 months contract is £59.00 - after cash back - £50.25

New models coming every 12 months - Why you must wait 24 months ????

Try again !!!!

​6GB not enough for me so deal not comparable.

So how much is pay as you go sim with unltd data going to cost you per month ?

Take it back, avoid this deal. Not sure what the other posters are saying as spoke with LG twice, and there is no 2 year warranty for my phone. And in fact, with the first person I spoke to they refused to give me the warranty information until I told them the source of the product. Seems like they are trying to find out where these phones are coming from.

And the biggest issue is that the phone is stuck on 6+ month old firmware. No OTA updates available and no updates via the LG Bridge, seems blacklisted to me. It doesn't help that everything on the root side seems to be for the 2nd revision of firmware and not the first that I have on the device. Have no idea how someone else said they got Marshmallow on their phone. This could all just be my model but it all seems dodgy to me, fake comments perhaps?

Sadly mine is going back for a refund due to the phone not mounting any of the many SD cards I have tried in it. A shame really as otherwise it seemed fine.

Mine had no stickers pre se but under the battery compartment there was a faint glue residue which could indicate one had been removed...?

As the shop is closed until Monday I'll contact them then for a returns label.

I'll try somewhere else now, and so the hunt begins......

Inserted a Sandisk 64gb from the recent lightning sale and it worked straight away, unlike my Kingston 64gb.

You've found a good deal there, well done, looks like vodaphone is doing some good deals or offering some good incentives to resellers and that matches your rather specific requirements. It wouldn't match mine. My first two requirements being that the phone isn't using o2 or vodafone, because where I am I can't get a signal on them. My second is that I don't want a cash back deal, I don't trust them. Those are my rather idiosyncratic requirements. My main point was that people have different requirements and buying phones outright gives you flexibility.

Phone arrived and worked fine until this Friday when all of a sudden the camera stopped working. I spoke to Andy at smartfonestore and he's going to replace/refund this week if they have stock availability. Watch this space.
