I had one for a short while. It has the best physical size for a 5.5" screen, good camera and was pretty smooth in use for me. Battery life was not very good for me as I was getting about 4-4.5 hours SOT. I don't go by how long the battery lasts overall as it and most other flagship phones are excellent in standby mode if you don't use it.
I have been using a OnePlus One since July and SOT is 5 hours some days but most days have been better than 6 hours so I just could not give it up.
The other issue was the weird screen/font sharpening. When viewing a lot of websites the text appears almost jagged which I could not get used to. It was most prevalent on sites with dark text on a lighter background.
If Lollipop straightens out the screen sharpening issue I may pick another one up as the battery is replaceable so I would just buy an extra battery for those days when I needed the extra juice.
It does have a removable battery so you did you get any extra ones for the G3?
Underpowered?Other than being slightly underpowered, I like the G3 a lot. Been playing with both the G3 and Note 4 and I prefer the G3. The Note 4 amoled screen is too soft and lacks detail. Although there is a bit of text sharpening, I like the G3 screen much more.
I have both right now so I'm deciding which one I should sell.

The gpu from the s801 soc can't handle the 1440p display, for the 1080p its fine, the s805 is where its at.
Why did they put a 1440p display then? does it make a difference than a 1080p display?
Sharpening is easily fixed by going to settings > general > accessibility > color adjustment:

With that being said I love my G3.
