My work is forcing me back to VZW. I currently have both my work and personal line on ATT. My work phone is a Note 3. He's my concern is that the VZW Note 3 since update to KK is lighting up forums with signal issues. I travel all over the Midwest and all the way out to Washington and Alaska.

So is the signal issue blown out of portion? What are you suggestions? I like the LG 3 but will be forced over before the release. I do like the look of the M8 but take a lot of pictures and concerned about the negative thoughts on the camera. I have also considered the S5, but had horrible luck with the S4. My Note 3 on ATT has been pretty good.

Thank for your thoughts. As for price it not an issue.

Do you have to get a brand new phone with the switch to Verizon? If not, maybe a used phone can hold you over until the G3 comes out or if they fix the Note 3 signal issues?

I can buy a used phone it's all up to me. That thought crossed my mind.

Would they let you pre order a G3 and muddle through the next few days still on AT&T?

I was able to start the process by preordering G3. Got it up and running on Thursday. Liking it so far.

I'm glad you purchased the G3. The Note 3 signal issue is huge. My mom, with the Note 2, has the issue.

On Tuesday I returned the G3. I was disappointed in several things. 1. battery life, 2. Camera, 3. Some of LG UI

I opted to get a VZW Note 3. To my surprise reception has been better on the Note 3 vs G3.

That's actually really surprising. Verizon's forums have been blown up by Note 3 signal issues.

I agree, my son had to do a warranty exchange because of the signal issues.

I do see fewer bars in places but not dropped calls or slow data.
