It is here, but it is not: the super-awesome LG G3 smartphone is now available, but only in its homeland of South Korea, where it was released on May 28. Over 170 other countries are on the waiting list, and there's little information regarding the flagship's global roll-out. Nevertheless, we did a little digging and managed to put all the LG G3 price and availability details in a single post. Keep in mind that we'll be updating the page with further details as they become available.

US
First the good news: every major carrier in the US will be offering the LG G3. As for the not-so-good news, we aren't sure when the phone is going to launch on their networks. Pricing is also a bit of a mystery right now.
Currently, sign-up pages are active on the web sites of AT&T and Verizon – those interested in owning the phone may enter their email in order to receive availability updates. Hardware specs for the LG G3 are listed, but not all of the spicy bits have been mentioned. AT&T does not say whether it will be launching the model with 16GB of storage and 2GB of RAM, or the 32GB/3GB variant. Verizon is also silent on the matter. Judging by the photos posted on the carriers' web sites, both will stock at least two color variants of the device – white and black.
UPDATE: According to rumors, Verizon will begin accepting pre-orders for the LG G3 on July 10, and the phone will be available in the carrier's retail stores from July 17 onward.
Sprint will be the only US carrier to launch the LG G3 in gold, and we're assuming that other color options will be offered as well. Those who pre-register for availability updates will have the chance to win one of 20 LG G3 smartphones when it becomes available. The sweepstakes end on July 10, 2014, which could be a clue about the phone's release date on Sprint. Interestingly, the sweepstakes rules mention a $599 retail price for the Sprint LG G3 model. Given the figure, it is presumed that the carrier will be offering the LG G3 variant with 16GB of storage and 2GB of RAM, not the model with more memory as that one is presumed to cost more.
UPDATE: It is now stated on Sprint's web page that the LG G3 is expected to launch in July.
T-Mobile, on the other hand, will launch the 32GB/3GB LG G3 in Titan Grey. What's more, one LG G3 unit will be given away each day to a lucky customer who signs up on T-Mobile's web site – participants will be contributing to an Open Beta program for the device. The promo will run until June 29, and this could be the date penciled for the LG G3 release date on T-Mobile.
Currently, Expansys is accepting pre-orders for the LG G3 unlocked, in either black or white. The black model is priced at $849.99 while the price for the white model has not been announced yet. Cases for the smartphone can also be bought from there. Sellers on Amazon and eBay are offering the Korean model of the device, model F-400, with a price hovering between $775 and $825. Keep in mind that with this particular variant of the phone, full compatibility with US carriers might be an issue.

UK
Soon after the LG G3 was made official, O2 announced its plans on offering the smartphone on its network. Further details will be posted on the carrier's "coming soon" page in the following weeks. What we know so far is that the model to come is the one with 2GB of RAM and it will be available on Pay & Go or a monthly plan. Three will be carrying the G3 as well – the 16 gigabyte, 2GB RAM model, as far as we can tell from the LG G3 hands-on video posted on Three's blog. Details on pre-order and launch dates are to be announced in the coming weeks.
Carphone Warehouse has started accepting pre-orders for the LG G3. The phone is available with service from Vodafone, Everything Everywhere, or O2 on a 24-month contract. Rates start at £33 per month, and a £100 cash back offer makes the deal even sweeter. If all goes as planned, the handset will be shipped by July 1. Color options include black, white, and gold. At Clove, the 16GB LG G3 model will retail for £499.00, and the first batch is scheduled to arrive on July 1. So far, Phones 4u has not announced plans on selling LG's flagship.

Australia
Australian carriers have not yet announced details regarding the launch of the LG G3 on their respective networks. Only Telstra has stated that the phone is expected to land on its shelves in August of this year, and we're guessing that the G3 release dates for Vodafone and Optus could fall within the same time frame. On LG's website, the sim-free LG G3 is listed with a recommended retail price of AU$799. The phone is not available for purchase, however. Those who are interested may sign up for an email notification which will be sent once the LG G3 is in stock.

Canada
Specifics about the launch of the LG G3 in Canada is really scarce at the moment. Major carriers have yet to confirm whether or not they'll be offering the phone anytime soon. Still, rumors on the internet suggest that the LG G3 will be available through at least two providers, Rogers and Bell.
