I find most of those things laughable.
Others have mentioned why throughout the thread, but Ill also add these, which at a minimum give a basis against the S4 and LG:

While the note does offer better battery life than the S4 (it had better, it has a 3200mAh battery in it), it is questionable if better than the iphone 5S given the above benchmars and some correlation data shown below. It is also giant...
In other tests, it shows for correlation how the note and S4 compare, and if you correlate those to the battery tests above, youll see that the life isnt THAT much better in the end either...
The iphone has a 1500mAh battery, but is smaller and lighter at the same time, which to me at least is preferable...
As for cameras, counting pixels without understanding the physics is just an exercise of folly. Yeah, the samsng has 13MP... Some Nokia has 41 MP. Great. Ill take better low light performance. In a comparison, the iphone wins...

While the camera on the iPhone 5s is not drastically better than the one found on its predecessor, it is still capable enough to rank Apple's smartphone among the best cameraphones out today. Throughout our testing, it constantly delivered outstanding results regardless of the shooting conditions, so it definitely deserves to hold the top spot in this comparison.
However, the iPhone 5s shares the gold with LG's flagship – the LG G2 – which proved that it is also a force to be reckoned with, beating Apple's smartphone in some tests, yet lagging slightly behind in others.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 gets the bronze, which is still a notable achievement given the fact that it has been on the market for about six months now. Even its compadre – the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 – couldn't outpace it, even though the latter demonstrated that its camera is definitely not to be underestimated.
The HTC One, Motorola MOTO X, and Motorola DROID Ultra all come with cameras that promise more than they can deliver. Sure, HTC's Ultrapixel technology and the Clear Pixel sensors used by Motorola's handsets may seem pretty cool on paper, but the results are a tad underwhelming, although still good enough for the needs of the casual photographer.
Nighttime where low light capablity is important is where the too dense MP rating of the sammys failed them.

Looks like the G2 was a nice phone if youre looking to use it for a lot of photos. Too bad it didnt work.
Im sorry that the experience with the carrier has been so poor. And that some of the phones you tried werent great. But I dont think your facts match reality...
