My old Xperia ZR has some screen issues. A certain area either does not work or works too well(automatic presses).
So I have decided to get this one exchanged for a new one under "exchange offers"

My top choice is Nexus 6 but exchange is not available at 248001.

1. Budget?40k
2. Display type and size?5" no more.
3. Dual sim?Preferred
4. Preferred choice of brand?Any
5. What camera option you want (flash, front facing camera)?Both
6. Preferred operating system? (Android, iOS, Windows Phone, etc).Android LEL
7. Preferred connectivity options (3G, 4G ready).Any(4G pref)
8. Primary use of handset (multimedia, camera, internet, gaming etc)?All
9. Any specific mobile phones in consideration?HTC One M8 Eye
10. Any other info that you want to share-SHould have a card slot but not a deal breaker.

Can't wait....need a phone now. Chatting has become troublesome.

I think I'll stick to HTC One M8 Eye just because of those speakers and Sense UI

Probably worst time ever to buy a flagship as of now. MWC is going to see nearly all the major flagship refresh and price cut is certainly evident.
Better Look for 1+1.
M8 eye is the same as m8 but with nearly no dev support. And if you think that the phone is small it is nearly as bug as 5.5 inch display.

Should I go with LG G3 then?
 
Can't buy opo in my town.
Ordered lg g3.
You bought G3 at 40k dude? Those things are on sale on Ebay for 30-31k and still don't sell well. There were Xperia Z3, Note 4 etc. phones, which you would have got by spending slightly more!

Whatever, congratulations :|

Z3-Not buying another Sony phone after my first poor experience(ZR). They don't repair these phones, they replace it and ask almost 70% of the MRP to replace it. Mine went kaput just after a year. Apparently, the screen cracking issues are real.

Note 4- :lol: :lol: :rofl: :rofl: Crap-wiz, who the hell even wants that. Samdung phones look so cheap.

This review says LG G3 is just plain better.

Okay, Sony service is indeed not up to the mark, agree with that. But if you think LG UI is any better than what you call Crapwiz then best of luck mate (it is basically another Touchwiz with different looks, go to XDA and read the goodness of it). The Note 4 in that category is the only phone which should considered. If you believe Gsmarena or other reviews then go read it.

To be quite honest, not everyone deserves to use everything good.

I've used LG's optimus UI for 2 months on my E970 (a Q4 2012 phone) and installed CM11 only to get kitkat. I switched to a ported version of official korean kitkat (but it wasn't a perfect port) back in July I think. After 1.5 month, I switched to PA and now running LS v4 (5.0.2)

Only reason to switch was Android version. Other than that, LG's UI is lag free and way better than that crapwiz. The amount of bloatwares in crapwiz is way too much. Only bloat which I found were the AT&T apps as my phone is a carrier specific version so those were expected and I uninstalled them minutes after I booted up the phone.

If you believe Gsmarena or other reviews then go read it.

Basically I am supposed to trust a random DF member with 25 posts instead of a trusted website running for years.

You didn't read the entire comparison on gsmarena? :p
Performance wise, they're almost the same. G3 has better screen, way better camera. Battery life is expected to be less than M8 because of that QHD screen. But hey, first phone from a big OEM with QHD screen. :p

I read the entire thing. Wanted user inputs.
LG G3's speaker is not that inferior as compared to HTC right?

Yeah not that inferior.
Still if you want, you can Boost LG G3's Speaker and Headphone Volume
