Urgent Advice needed please!!!

Ok guys, here it is:
Contemplating buying a used Verizon version Xoom 32GB in good condition (no scratches) with wireless bluetooth keyboard and cover/case for it for $350. What do you guys think about this deal? I think it's pretty good considering the prices they go for used on eBay and Amazon Marketplace. I need some advice...and soon. I'm supposed to meet this guy in an hour and a half.
NOTE: I'm aware this does not belong in the DEV section and will delete it as soon as I get some input. I'm literally supposed to pick this thing up in an hour and I'm on the fence about getting it...also, I got no views on my post on the Q&A thread. Please help guys and excuse the post in the wrong section.

hmmmm
Asking this in a forum full of Xoom owners the answer is obvious..
Buy it root it love it!
.

Thanks for the reply...I'm not questioning the quality of the Xoom. I'm just interested in whether I am getting a good price considering it's used.

I'd definitely say it's a good deal. You're getting the 3g xoom, bluetooth keyboard and case for less than the price of the xoom new. Would jump on that!

ONLY buy on the condition you immediately flash the latest Tiamat rom But this thread will be moved in about 30 seconds is my guess

hello and goodbye

Just wanted to drop a thank you to all the ppl on this forum who have been so helpful and patient with all my questions.
Due to budget concerns I will not be getting a infuse after all so I also wanna say goodbye to this forum ( I was really looking forward to being a member of this great group) .
In a nutshell what has happened is that when I first started looking at the infuse you could pick up a bnib infuse unlocked for about 300 usd but when I got the money the cheapest I could find one was 395 usd and I never buy used electronics so it was out of my price range.
I ended up dropping down to the htc inspire.
Anyway, thanks for everything and hope to see you around xda's other forums

Make you u check out the collective rom for inspire hear its really nice.

I will be checking out the collective rom for sure and also eNRGy rom for inspire.
As for battery I currently use a smaller battery than the inspire has on my mt3g and I am in a truck most of the day so I can plug it in if I need to.

I would but both me and my wife need phones ( she is on a backup ''dumb'' phone and my mt3g has seen better days) and the only way I can afford the phones is tax refund and my budget would have me saving for the rest of the year for those ( as much as I want the note)

[Q] Just sold my iPhone... what next?!

Hi, over the past few weeks I've been debating and debating whether to sell my iPhone or not, from constant scratches, to unsupported accessories, to out of sync flash, to sh*t maps... the list goes on!
So I took the plunge today and finally sold it on eBay, making myself the money I paid for it!
The question is, where do I go from here?
I've been looking at these phones in particular
Samsung Galaxy S3, HTC One X, HTC One X plus, HTC 8X and Nokia 920
Now I know you might say that it's all down to personal experience, but what phone would you guys prefer? I don't mind waiting a few weeks (3 max).
I use a HTC Mozart as a 'backup' phone which is very bad in my opinion, so that steers me away from Windows 8!
The reason I'm not buying GS3 straight away is due to the fact I really like getting updates ASAP and I understand the JB update isn't available yet.
Please post your opinions !

Sir, great and here is thread for your topic, should help...Thank You and Thread Closed

Best phone for £150 in u.k???

Hi, I currently have a iphone 4, I was gonna upgrade early but i'd have to pay quite a bit so decided to wait until it was free but in the meantime I really miss android so was wondering what was a good phone just to see me through like the next 5 months? I only have about £150 cos money is a bit tight at the minute. I'm in the u.k
Many thanks
Edit: I think I posted in wrong section, sorry

[Q] Should I get an S4 or HTC One

Hey guys. Over the last few weeks i've been debating over whether i should buy myself an S4 or HTC One. They're both awesome phones, which is making it all the harder for me to decide which one to get. So i decided to ask which one you guys would suggest.
I would mainly use the phone for heavy internet browsing and listening to music.
Also I will most likely put a custom rom on the phone so I dont really care about what software features it has.
Over here in Australia the HTC One costs $750 whereas the octa core galaxy S4 costs $699.
If you suggest a phone make sure to let me know why it's better than the other one.

Not sure what to buy next?

$750 is ridiculous for the nexus 4 when it really should cost $300. Can you buy it in eBay from us seller? At that price difference definitely Samsung or the n new HTC. Newer more advanced phone, cheaper.

I replied in the official thread, but wanted to let you know that im not talking about the nexus 4, im talking about the Samsung galaxy s4 and the HTC One

HTC One is much cheaper you can get is for about $720 (second hand on eBay probably costs ~$500) and the quality that you get is pretty good. For example if you compare the quality of the pictures taken with both HTC One and Galaxy S4 there are almost no difference. However, if you are looking for a long battery life definitely S4 is better but more expensive though.
If I were you I would buy the HTC then use it for a couple of months and then buy another new phone

1st theres like a million of these threads. Second:

Third:
Go visit the s4 forums.
Then visit the htc one /m7 forums.
Use your new found knowledge to make a yoda like decision.
And now:
Thread reported, it is

Since this has been asked in the "official" thread, I am going to close this one...
