This is the phone the Nexus 4 should've been (i.e. storage is expandable and LTE). Since the Nexus 4 doesn't have either this the phone I'll be picking up next month. It's kind of interesting that the quad core wasn't doing much better than the dual core Galaxy III. I assume that has to do with the fact that not many apps are coded for more than 2 cores? What do you think?

I'm kinda leaning towards the OS being the issue. All of the phones using ICS were grouped together while Jelly bean was taking the lead in the browser benches. I'm gonna try and keep an eye on when they roll out Jelly bean for the Optimus G and head to the ATT store and see if my local store will let me run a couple of tests at that point.
