I would choose Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
An unlocked 64gb Iphone 4S. Why? Because I would sell it, buy a Galaxy Nexus and have $300 cash to play with!
1.Galaxy Nexus
2.White Samsung Galaxy SII HD LTE
Guys, where i can buy the korean SII HD LTE online?
Galaxy Nexus or Galaxy note.
HTC Sensation! Lovely qHD display, great dual core - I'm running MIUI ICS and this thing is so much nicer than with stock gingerbread! Along with its aluminium unibody, anything plastic feels like crap :L
when
Galaxy 3 when's that out then ?
My contract runs out with Vodafone in January and they are already pestering me to upgrade early.....was thinking about the Galaxy 2 or HTC Senstation....

Wrong thread!
Contented with my phone now. Really don't feel the need to change to any other phone.
If I could for free, a XE. It's like my phone, but dual core.
My contract is up August, I'm sure better phones are out then.

If I had one, I would so trade you.
I would take an evo 4g with a dual core processor, a camera button, and more metal on the body than just the kickstand. When one ofthise comes along, the meaning of life will be explained.

In the end, I went with the Nexus as it has much better software, development and update speed...
Sorry about making another thread on this.
But, I'm looking for a 24 month contract under £15 a month with little upfront fee, up to £100. I was on Pay as You Go before. I just wanted to know what is the best at that price? At the moment, I'm looking at the HTC One X, Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy Note. Which one would you recommend? Or should I get something else? The phone needs to last for 2 years. Thanks for the help.

Any suggestions? At the moment I'm between the Nexus and Note. Which has better development?
Go with Galaxy Nexus. Fast as hell with new Jelly Bean and also it's a really developer/hacker friendly phone

I don't think note will get jelly bean or next version of android. Also I find Nexus to have more developer support. Also Gnex has pure Android which looks beautiful

The real question is getting the latest update important to you. If it is go with a nexus, if not go with the phone that suites your needs now. Just don't expect your phone to be updated to the latest software when going with a skinned phone.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
If development and long term support is your biggest option.
100% no doubt, go with the Nexus.
The Note is a close second because it has decent development but updates are a bit slower.
I'd leave the Sensation in the dust.

I would have to say "not the Sensation XL". I had a Sensation and it's a heavy pocket mirror. And there aren't too many roms available for them. In the end I'll have to recommend buying a phone because you like the design, not because of the specs. You're not going to enjoy a phone that has a slightly faster CPU if you don't like how it looks.
I've pretty much eliminated the Sensation.
But which CPU and GPU is better? The one in the Note or the Nexus? I would prefer better development but it's not a big issue. I wouldn't be installing ROMs until the phone gets old. Hardware-wise which is the better phone? And will both last the next two years? I know the Nexus will, but will the Note? Thanks for all the help.

Specs are better in note for sure. But even though note has better spec, I find Nexus to be smoother with the jelly bean update.

I also second the suggestion to get a Nexus. It gives you the best Android Experience (fast updates from Google, huge developer community) .
The HTC HD2 is still very expensive because it is very popular among developers I guess this might be the case with the Nexus too. So if you want to sell it in the future it won't be completely worthless by that time. Just my thoughts.
If you want an Android phone go directly with Galaxy Nexus, but if you have much money you can buy an iPhone 4s
I think galaxy nexus or galaxy S3
I was going for the Nexus but then I saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1510755. What do you guys think about this?

Can't find a SG3 in the budget I have. Otherwise, it looks like a good phone.
Hi folks,
I have been using my HTC desire s for the past 1 Year and em feeling a lot intimate with it. recently my screen got cracked and so I plan on getting a new mobile, after a big walk around the forums I found HTC sensation and Galaxy s2 are the ones having a good feedback and also fits my budget. Now em in a duo of which one to select I like htc sense ui a lot but Samsung is well known for its source code release stuff (I'm a flashalcholic). Please suggest me a good mobile my budget is 400 to 450 usd (max 25000 INR)

EVO
I'm a lil baised but the EVO 3D or the 4G LTE seem really good but I've also heard the Samsung Galaxy S2 or S3 are both great devices and all of those are in your price range.
Ive had the htc sensation and the galaxy s3 not the s2 but me personally i would go with the samsung galaxy s2 seems to be alot of development for both phones but the s2 being more popular would have more devolopment with newer roms in the future i would think. Plus the screen on the galaxy is s2 is better then the sensation in my opinion
HTC One X
Sensation and S2 are both old phones. Or a Galaxy Nexus, much cheaper choice.

Galaxy Nexus. You will have much better and prolonged support with it.
S3 as it is one of the best devices at the moment with very strong spcs. However galaxy nexus is also a very strong device. It like i9100. ( little weaker) but as it from google sources, it 'll get every new software update. Don't forget that nexus s has jellybean 4.1 and galaxy s (i9000,9001,9003,9030) gingerbread 2.3.6!!!!!!!

I am not a big fan of Samsung device to begin with. Also, trading one s to a previous generation phone to me isn't wise to do even if $40 is offered.
However at the end it's your decision and if you really want a Samsung phone, get the s3 it's much better than s2 in every way and similar to one s. If s3 is too expensive, stick to one s after all this is one of the best phone you can get from the market.
Sent from my One S using xda app-developers app
It's not a good deal. Read above.
Ok then i think i'm going to just keep my htc one s
I would ask for more $ , sure the S2 is an older phone, but the Super AMOLED Plus display is really gorgeous, WAY better than the One S in my opinion

OK, we all have different taste and opinions about phones. To me, I don't find the one s's screen any worse than s2's. Yes, s2 has better technology but I personally am happy about what one s has presented to me. Only improvement I think is if we have 720p on one s that will be the best.
Oh, don't forget s2 only has WVGA and one s is QHD, the pixel density difference is well noticeable.
Again, if you really like s2, they go for it, but to me you cannot decide and that's why you are asking people's opinion. So in this case I would suggest you stick to one s. It is likely you would regret if you have done the trade. And the person trading the s2 will be extremely happy.

I would not make that trade with 200 tossed in with S2.

Welcome,
This is the most slim and pretty HTC phone with powerful cpu and camera.
However, first you will need to check whether it is z520e(s4) or z560e(s3) on your box. If it's a s3 one, just return or sold it and get a s4.
