Im eligible for upgrade in October/November and I was wondering if there was any good Android phones that are out. Or phones that are coming out soon that are worth getting.
Just the epic 4g that I know of for 2010.
Is the galaxy S any good?

Epic 4G is better. Seen a friend toying with it in Orange County. Smooth and somewhat "FAT" But 4G only works for people in the "4G" zones.
as for Galaxy S, if you want Root right after you got it, information are already posted in this forum.
Too bad T-Mobile's HSPA+ beats down Sprint's so called "4g"
But nah they're both fast and fairly similar. Great speeds on both.
The Galaxy S is GREATand the Epic 4G looks like an awesome phone, but I migrated to touch only. I have a Vibrant and I am highly pleased.
Hi,
Regarding battery life and reliability on voice calls and SMSs, which is the best Android phone we can buy nowadays?
Regards
sam sung Infuse 4G, my first choice
as of now in the U.S. @ least i would argueably say the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic Touch 4G on Sprint or the AT&T variant are the best in the states. I say the sprint version is better because, i hate AT&T and essentially they are the same phone but i would go with Sprint before AT&T
Nexus S is a pretty nice phone. Id wait for the Nexus Prime though, its bound to be good.
I agree, I would say the upcoming Nexus Prime looks real nice
The battery life is **** on all devices, with internet permanently on and heavy usage you can exspect about a day.
With internet off you can get 3+ days.
The galaxy S II is the best one for now.
try an evo 4g or 3D
Best one i know with quality/price relation is ideos x5 .although the camera is not that good , but for the price its unbeatable.
Top 10 Android Phones
1.Samsung Epic Touch 4G
2.HTC EVO 3D
3.HTC Sensation 4G
4.T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide
5.Samsung Charge
6.Motorola Droid Bionic
7.HTC ThunderBolt
8.T-Mobile G2x (with Google)
9.Motorola Atrix 4G (AT&T)
10.Motorola Photon 4G
Just for reference.
I really like my Sony Xperia Pro
Nexus Prime is quite good.
Samsung Galaxy S-III is soon to be released. Galaxy S III will come with a dual-core 1.8GHz Exynos 4212 processor along with 2GB of RAM. The smartphone will feature a 4.6-inch Super AMOLED Plus HD display.Moreover, the Samsung Galaxy S III will have a 12MP camera.
.Totally subjective but I think the Galaxy S II is the best phone on the market right now. Though the Nexus Prime and S III is coming if you want to wait
I plan to put a mobile on contract which means 24 months for me. Which of those is best suited for future-proof in terms of software?
Well the Galaxy Nexus will receive updates longer than the Galaxy S2, meaning Galaxy Nexus will have next generation Android update, and Galaxy S2 won't. Galaxy Nexus will also most likely get more support from Google and such since it's a vanilla (for the most part) Google phone. Galaxy S2 has better hardware specs, but Galaxy Nexus has better software and support. I went with the Epic 4G Touch because it's the best of the Galaxy S2 phones and I'd rather have unlimited data than Verizon's current 4GB for the price of 2GB deal. So future proof wise, Galaxy Nexus is probably your best bet since Epic 4G Touch won't have as much support even with ROMs.
The software issues shouldnt be looked at as a negative,if youre on xda then you know youll have access to better software anyway(custom roms).id go with better phone.

Would any of you guys suggest buying a Samsung Epic Touch 4G now? or the iPhone4s? I currently have an HTC Evo 4G and the power button gave out... it only works if I don't let the screen time out ):.
My question is, do you think I should buy the Samsung Epic Touch 4G or iPhone4s, OR wait for the rumored iPhone5/Samsung Galaxy SIII?

Wait for the Galaxy SIII. You could also consider the Evo 4G LTE - http://news.softpedia.com/news/HTC-EVO-4G-LTE-Approved-by-FCC-Pre-Orders-Start-in-May-264450.shtml (since you had an Evo, it may make you feel more "at home").

If you are serious about waiting and iOS platform you should wait a few months to start getting the "new" iPhone rumors and release date.

I think there's a website where you can get all kinds of people submitting ROMS, each with customization, themes, adjusted apps, all for the iPhone4s. Oh wait, actually I don't' think there is.
Neither, because you'll be able to get a much better phone by may/june
Well, since mostly everyone is telling me to wait... is there anyway to get my phone to function? I either have to leave the screen on and not let it timeout, or pull out the battery and put it back in to view a text/email.
I went from an Epic 4G Touch to an iPhone 4S for 2 months, and regretted it. The only saving grace of the iPhone is that it feels expensive and looks good, but from a usability standpoint you will be really limited in what you can do with it, even jailbroken (which you can't jailbreak it now anyways if you buy it new). I'm on a white Epic 4G Touch now. There's no place like home.
I'd say wait for the Evo 4G LTE, but the Epic 4G Touch is without a doubt the fastest phone out right now, even faster than the Galaxy Nexus. You can't go wrong with it. But like others have said, wait to see around next month and June. If you HAVE to pick a phone right now, Epic 4G Touch. If you have to pick one now and want to sell it later, get an iPhone 4S, call Sprint to have them unlock it, then sell it on eBay for $600 and buy the Evo 4G LTE off contract.
i guess I might have to go with the epic 4g touch... idk how much longer I can survive without a phone lol

Well, if you need it now, then the Samsung Epic 4G Touch is one of the best options you have.
in my opinion wait for the galaxy s III or whatever they will call it.
I hope it will be announced until the last of April, And don't listen to any rumor in the internet right now 98% are imaginations and lies...
I'm still using the trusty EVO 4g but will be upgrading to the new EVO LTE when it comes out. That is one killer phone.
I saw on the internet that the AT&T exclusive deal ended in April.
Could that mean that sprint can take in the note/journal? I really like the phablet (lol) concept that Samsung brought to the market
I know that the evo lte is coming but I do like how the note is setup
