Samsung Galaxy Nexus or other phone such as S III ??

Hi all, as the title
I dunno is it the best time to go for Samsung Galaxy Nexus
but I really love it
because my current phone is LG optimus one which is my 1st android phone
furthermore, once I buy either 1 of them I don't want to change phone for 2year, so if get Nexus now, then get next 2 generation Nexus phone(same to other)
so which should I go ??
and also since MWC gonna reach, and sure got new phone announce
but after wait them announce, still need wait them release, and bring by either Samsung, LG, Motorola and other for my country for the original set
*i prefer original set than ap set(not sure other country got ap set or not)
so anyone please help me decide ><
thanks
Regards

Imo it's not worth the wait because the SGSIII will be like the nexus but with better internal specs which really isn't noticeable, unless you like to play games a lot on your phone or something.

SGS2 over the nexus if you can live with touchwiz or CM9. Benefit of a nexus line is that you get updates first and a true aosp rom.
SGS3 may be out Q2 or even Q3 if it gets delayed. Who knows what improvements it will bring.

If you're always trying to stay atop of the game, you'll be disappointed.
Go with the Nexus instead of waiting for the SGSIII.
At least you know you'll always have a dev community and at least Google support for years.

I would go for galaxy nexus instead of waiting. I hate waiting for new phones. I think, if you have a good phone, it will remain good although a new one was released in next months

If you don't mind Touchwiz and love specs, probably the S3. But if you want the fastest updates and can't wait get the Galaxy Nexus. It's impossible to stay on top of everything in the mobile space unless you got a bunch of cash to burn. If you keep waiting there will be more developments but at what cost?

but at my country got G and non G version, which is I9100 and I9100G
if want I9100, must buy ap set, otherwise original set = I9100G
as I said on 1st post, I prefer original set
although is same, but personal opinion
furthermore, S II too common already
dunno what to choose between S II and Galaxy Nexus now ><

*S II I feel too common in my country, furthermore got I9100 and I9100G, both different version
if I get S II I sure get I9100 to play the custom rom, kernel and tweak, but the disadvantage is just got ap set =_=
original set all is I9100G which less dev support at all
headache already

furthermore, if I wait at least need to wait half year
and now I consider either buy S II or Galaxy Nexus ><

anyone can help ??

I'd wait for the SGSIII because of better specs but I think that the TouchWiz interface that Samsung will surely slap on there will spoil it for me. You can always flash another ROM though.

Yes the Nexus has it. You should go for the Nexus. Both phones are basically equal specs wise, but the Nexus is always going to be special. Also, if you want an SGSIII when it comes out the Nexus will hold its resale value better than the SGSII.

Galaxy S or SII its the best, because is android and is really solid material is SAMSUNG and is great.

There is a great camera comparison between the 2 phones. If camera is your MOST important feature, I would go with the SGSII. If you like AOSP and the Nexus line, go with the Nexus. With the review though, the cameras aren't that far apart, and the Nexus takes better pictures with the flash. I personally have just bought a Nexus.

Which phone is worth getting? (First Android Phone)

Hello XDA ,
So I would like to know from your guys. I own a Samsung Star now and I want to get a new phone. This means my first ever Android phone that I will own (I have used Android before, but those where phones from friends). My question is which phone is the best pick to get.
ill use it mainly for apps (mainly games), whats-app, some internet when on wi-fi.
I personally was thinking about the Nexus 4 which is been sold for €450 here in the Netherlands. But what do you guys think? I would love to have Jelly Bean and a fast phone.
Go ahead and suggest me something but keep it under the Nexus 4 or at the same price as the Nexus 4.
#Robert

Go with the nexus 4. I have it and it's definitely the best in the price range. It's so good in fact I've been thinking about selling my old phones to buy a nexus 4.

100% agree!
If I'd buy a new android phone (I'm sure it would be an android phone ) I would buy a nexus, too.
You'll get OS updates really fast and for quite a long time and you'll have a slim rom without bloatware.
Hope I could help!

Nexus 4 is an excellent choice.

Wait for the S4 or go with Note 2. The S3 is now a lot cheaper with the Note 2 out and the S4 being announced.

You are a perfect candidate for a nexus 4 Key lime pie will be out in a few months and you can bet the N4 will have it first.
If you know someone in the US, have them buy it for you. Much cheaper!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

The Nexus 4 is a great phone, but the two big things it lacks are an external SD card and removable battery.
Think about how you'll use the phone and if those things might be useful to you. I keep a lot of music on my external SD card so that it doesn't take space away from apps - I don't live in an area where I can just stream everything all the time, do you ?
If you plan on doing things with custom ROMs and such, an external SD card can be a lifesaver, too - and general convenience. But if you don't, the Nexus 4 might be a good choice since it will receive updates without you having to do anything.
Removable battery is nice because if you are buying off-contract, especially, you don't have to worry about babying the battery - the battery will lose so much charge per year no matter if you treated it perfectly. If you're not getting a subsidized upgrade, that might not be something you want to be stuck with. It's also nice to be able to carry a spare battery especially if you're playing games for an extended period of time (I carry one so I can play emulators between classes without having to worry "what if I don't go right home ?").

Nexus 4 is a great mobile but still there are few drawbacks of this mobile.
Consider other similar mobiles in the price range, S3, HTC, Sony etc

Look about this http://www.wikomobile.com/telephone-portable-Cink-Peax.php at €170

Yes, get the nexus 4 !!

Well , that depends what you like , right now the samsung galaxy s4 is the fastest phone , but not the most beautiful and the one who is better made. The most beautiful and the second fastest phone is HTC one , but this one doesnt have a sd card slot. Personally i will get the htc one with contract from vodafone , it will cost 300€ , its the first time i will buy a phone in this mode , but phones are getting bigger and bigger , and rumors already said that nexus 5 will get a 5.2" display. So every year phones get 0.2" bigger , so i will keep the htc until phones start to get smaller.
That was my opinion. Have a great year

Galaxy S4, it's definitely worth getting

Any HTC, Nexus device.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

The battery and SD card isn't so bad. 16GB is plenty for me! The battery isn't really of a issue. Most of the time the phone will be in standby.
How is the speed btw? Good enough for intensive apps? including games hehe
But I do agree the Nexus 4 is probably my pick but go ahead with suggestion. I already have 108 euros and need 450 so im getting there!!!
Really exited to get my first ever smartphone, android phone. Some of you might think that I am really behind stuff but he im 18 and didn't have the money first :crying: now I'm working hard to earn it so I can get a new phone :laugh:

I'd wait for the S4. I mean, the OS is pretty much the same with every phone, so what you really want to be looking at is specs.

[DISCUSSION] Samsung Galaxy S4 Google Edition: Confirmed.

Available from Play in a 16GB variant compatible with ATT/TMobile with LTE support, bootloader unlocked, running stock Android 4.2.2 with direct updates from Google just like the Nexus line.
June 26th is the date. $649 is the price.

Does this point to no new android update(4.3)?

Yes it will have a micro sd card as stated in the key note.
And before people ask here. No it will not have any of the so called samsung goodies.

This is completely retarted why would Samsung create a Google edition? Not that's its bad just don't make sense

Seems like HTC is bringing out an Google version of the HTC One as well.

B2t, i would like the Stock version of the S4, but if HTC also releases a stock of their HTC one, then i definitly gonna buy the Stock HTC.

I would totally buy this thing if they had used software keys. Galaxy Nexus II?; sounds better than "Samsung Galaxy S4 Nexus Edition" The same goes for HTC except that would be a little harder to name.

Is samsung stuff still there.. according to google version of s4

I was wondering if they would leave the Samsung extras or pull them. I actually really like this move towards offering a plain version of the phone. It's making me really considering leaving Vz.

Guys, are you serious? This is just what EVERYBODY wanted for years...now the realization has just begun! Pure Android, micro SD, good cam, a "normal" manufacturer without nexus handcuffs...man, this is just great! I don´t know if I really will switch within the next few weeks or months, but this is the first step in the IDEAL direction!
Just great!

I do like all that screen, I just dont like "moving parts" and wonky button layouts. HTC got it right with the One X and got it wrong with the One, IMO. This GS4 NE is a smart move for Samsung and Google though.

If my note 2 didn't have such good aosp ROM and kernel support I'd ditch it for the S4GE. This is the dream Nexus. Top hardware (mostly) with no bs software. Perfect. Folks will argue for a 32gb version but whatever... As far as price, I think it's right where it should be, that's how much unlocked bleeding edge devices cost.

So what do you guys think about development? Will the devs go for the SGS4 or the SGS4 Google? (Same question for the HTC One)
I think they will go for the Google version for both phones, but that would be stupid for all those guy which bought an SGS4 or HTC One because they expected the devs would focus on these, so i am not sure about that.

As for development I dont see the S4GE selling well when Devs can get the same thing for far cheaper up front.

Sorry, had been wrong on the first point. Will the S4GE be as open as the Nexus devices are or is it just a S4 with Stock Android, did not get that point.

So I'm thinking of buying an S4 next week (on contract from Three), do you guys think I'll be able to install Google's own ROM when they release it?
Or will I actually have to buy Google's S4 edition?

This is going to be the best of both worlds!!!
What I always hated about Samsung phones? Software!
Sloppy bloat- and crap-ware, late updates (sometimes as much as 1.5 year late btw),etc.
What I don't like about nexus? Limited hardware!
Chopped off sdcard, no apt-x, etc.
So this is going to be the mix of what I like about both.
Or maybe I wish it would be... Unless G chops off the sd slot last second or S would stick some piece of crap in the midst of pure android!
Or well, I won't buy it then ... again ...

Thinking of replacing my samsung note 2

I have sold my s3 and got a note 2 since december from last year.
The reason i bought such a huge phone was for the s pen. It helped me in college for taking notes, but then ive bought an ipad which can work for the same purpose, except without the s pen.
Nowadays im just not finding the note 2 practical for everyday usage. Its just too big.
So now im Thinking of selling it and either buying either an s4, htc one or xperia z.
Can someone give me feedback on those phones?
I love the design of sony phones, but i also cant live without the features of samsung phones

I can't think of any reason the s4 wouldn't be a good choice.

I would recommend the HTC one. Reason why is because you're coming from a note 2 which is pretty much the same as an S4 minus a couple of features and the 1080p display. The Xperia Z would be a very bad choice as it has sub par battery life, lags and the display is really a letdown. The HTC one stands out with is fantastic display, it's flawless performance, the amazing boomsound, the phone looks beautiful and dev support is excellent.
At the end of the day everything is a matter of preference but do yourself a favor, whatever phone you choose make sure it's between the S4 or HTC one, the XZ is really not that good. I wanted to also recommend the optimus G pro but you said you want something smaller. Cheers.

Neither the HTC One or S4. If you are thinking of getting a phone for long term, you would be better of waiting for a Snapdragon 800 CPU phone to be released soon instead of getting a Snapdragon 600 S4 or One.

i'll earn money to buy it

Do you require the use of a MicroSD? If the answer is yes, then you can forget about the HTC One. (Say all you want about how it has 64GB internal storage. MTP is so horrendously slow and unstable that copying a 3GB Bluray file simply doesn't work.)
If you can, wait for September. The IFA will be hosted early september, and many will be announing their new phones there. Most are switching to an S800, which is more powerful.
If you can't wait, I'd suggest going with the S4.

Im not really in a big hurry, but what new flag ships are rumored to be shown?

Since you really like S Pen feature. Galaxy S4 should be your choice.

Should I Upgrade now or later?

So. My mom told me that she's gonna buy me a new phone before I go back go high school, which is 8/26. Now, I don't know if I should upgrade now or later. Obviously, I have T-Mobile. And I love this phone. But truth be told, its getting old. The reason why I ask, is well. Because there's just not so many options on T-Mobile right now.. 1 HTC, 2 Samsung, 2 Google/LG, 1 Nokia, and the new (to us) xperia z. So I turn to you guys, to see what you'd do. If now, what phone would you get? If later.. wait for which phone? iPhone 5C, iPhone 5S/6? New nexus phone? Cheers, guys.

First of all, if your mom is like mine I would upgrade now before she changes her mind lol. I gave that a lot of thought but honestly every phone is going to have its ups n downs so just pick one and enjoy it. If it were me, I would just go with an s4 and call it a day. Htcone is nice, but I think a plastic build comes with a lot of benefits.

Lol. Yeah true that. The reason why I'd get the s4 over the one, is that modding it is easier.. well not easier, but I'm already comfortable with Odin. But, I have just always loved HTC and HTC sense.-.

I've never cared for sense. Or TouchWiz. Or any stock framework really. I always do my research and make sure there are a lot of options before I buy a phone. CyanogenMod support is a must. If CM supports it, basically everything does.
and SHAME ON YOU for even mentioning iPhone! lol jk, jk.
If it were me, I'd go with the Nexus 4 if your mom could spring it without breaking the bank (I know you mentioned LG/Google, so idk if that was an option or not). Otherwise, my choice would be the S4 or the Xperia. It'd be a tough call either way.

Get a phone with lte . I tried the exhilarates lte. It is awesome.

If you Google nexus 5 you will see that there are now very strong rumors pointing to a Motorola Google nexus being out q4 this year and it will not be a moto x gpe.

I'm ready for an upgrade (T-Mobile actually let me out of my Blaze contract 6 months early so I could switch to the new unlimited plan) and, if I were choosing amongst the phones available now, I'd probably get the Nexus 4. Unless I had someone buying the phone for me, if cost were not an issue I'd go the S4 Google Play edition.
