LG Nitro HD (AT&T)

Pros: Feature packed
Best display I've seen
Very fast CPU and 4G LTE
Memory o' plenty
1080P video capture

Cons: Lousy telephone-based support
Camera is very good but not great
Garbage-ware o' plenty

Summary: I had the Galaxy S II for two days. AT&T took it back and I got this. I am super impressed with the phone and AT&T. The 4G LTE is blazing fast in the Phoenix area. The camera is slightly better on the Galaxy, but the LG Nitro HD device overall (especially the display at 329ppi and 720x2180) blows the Galaxy S II Skyrocket out of the water! It slightly bests iPhones pixel density (which is 326ppi) on paper but you'll only notice a much larger screen and higher resolution.

As of Wednesday, 2012-01-04, LG has made their phone-in tech support virtually useless. Two minutes of wading through phone menus to get to endless ringing. I gave up after four minutes of listening to ringback tone waiting for someone to answer the line. It was working with just a two touch-tone selections (about 20 seconds) to talk to someone less than 24 hours ago.

The sound quality on the LG is not the very best, but isn't bad at all in my opinion. I use a BT headset anyway, and the Samsung would not dial any contact in my list with or without a headset. That is, the Galaxy S II Skyrocket annoyingly ignores your contact list when voice dialing. Nobody at AT&T seems to realize that until they try it. Instead it does a Google search and dials what it thinks is a good match (NOT)! The Nitro HD does voice dial (with or without BT) from my contacts, and is accurate (thanks to Google). I have nearly 600 contacts in my list.
