[Q] My first smartphone is getting old.

Hi boys, and girls
As my 2 year contract on my carrier, is getting to the finish line, i want to get something new. (I will keep my small litle muscle phone O1 as a second phone )
At the first i wanted the galaxy nexus, because of the great software support, and the developement, in our xda forum.
Then suddenly i saw the new Optimus 4x, but, there is one but. There is no developement in here, because of locked bootloader
I really don`t know what to take. Thought about the Xperia S, but nope.
The phones what i need to choose from , are - 1. Galaxy nexus
2. Optimus 4x
Maybe Acro S ?
Maybe some other suggestions?

Maybe the new LG Nexus? It'll be $399 on Google Store unsubsidized according to rumors.

Yeah, but it will not be available in my country for a while.

seeing how often google release OS.
I will stick to nexus device for fastest OS update
I love my Google experience device motorola xoom running AOSP jelly bean

Yeah. I think I'd go for the new nexus phone. Just wait for a lil while

I think getting a new LG phone is a waste, Anything other than a galaxy nexus is.
The new android OS? Availably from day 1.
Every app is tested on that first, which means closer to no bugs.

I think that i will take Galaxy Nexus. Just because of software support, developement. The performance is also o.k No need for 4 cores.

Galaxy nexus has a very very disappointing battery life

Yes, i know, but it is the only device, with the best price/performance on my carrier. I will take it on a contract.
As i said, maybe something from xperia line - The acro s?

Galaxy s3??? Htc one x???
Coz i like quad core!

Ahh. Bought Galaxy nexus today. No need for a quad core phone,becouse there is not where to put in all potential. Its enough with a dualcore.

Nexus of you want it right now. I say wait till the holiday is over. I bet you a slick new device will come out by then. A new nexus and HTC has already announced the HTC one x+ and also a 5 inch device. You sir must wait.

[Q] New phone suggestions

Hey guys I was recently able to sell my g2x and I have about 200$ to spend on a new phone what ares some suggestions for a new device, I was thinking of a galaxy nexus or a htc 1 s. Any ideas would be welcome thanks.

Those would be my 3 choices as well...however before choosing i would compare the specs and performance of each device as well as checkout some of the custom roms and kernels available as i would root the phone as soon as i got it. i know the galaxies have a lot of dev support

Thanks for the advice I'm leaning towards the nexus cause of Dev support and I'm not realy familer with htc unlocking rooting and roming process.

Nexus 4 is 350 new, off contract unlocked.
Galaxy Nexus is still good though and a hundred bucks cheaper.

I'd say go with the nexus. I rooted several HTC devices for friends and it was a pain in the butthole, you have to register on htcdev, use command prompts and etc. etc. to unlock the bootloader and then do another to get S-Off and its just a mess

what about optimus l9
Does anybody use an l9 as their daily driver if so how do you like it I am thinking about this instead of a gnexus cause its cheaper but I don't want to be stuck with another lg phone that never gets updates.
Thanks

I just bought an HTC One. It's excellent.

I jumped from g2x to l9 and I love it. Just got the update to jellybean too. L9 is the best phone u can get at 199 New no contract. But remember this is a LG phone so jellybean might be the only update for this phone

Thanks for the info at this piont I'm considering either the gnexus or the l9.

Not considering gs3 anymore?

The s3 is to pricy but I would love one

The galaxy s4 looks sweet. Think that might be my next rig

Can't decide! LG G2 or Moto X

I'm in the market for a new phone and I've been looking at these two phones and I am really torn between them. They both have good battery life and I like the feel of both of them. The only down side about the moto x for me is that I can't use the moto maker option for Verizon which is depressing. So I basically just want to hear from people who have had hands-on with these devices and would be will on giving me input to help me out. Anything would be appreciated thanks!

Got the LG G2 recently and I'm completely happy with it.

Be patient and wait for Nexus 5. Nexus 5 > g2 + moto x
Foxhound s4

Got an LG G2 for the wife and me. Been amazing so far. I have always used Moto but this phone sets a new bar.

Which phone?

I'm planning on upgrading my phone this week and am curious to find out which you guys think I should go for between the S4, the Nexus 5 and the Lg 2G
I she to be gearing more towards the Lg but would like some input

actually if want to buy mobile phone for like development purpose i never suggest Samsung coz they know nothing about making high end phones
though nexus 5 and lg g2 are manufactured by the same company lg g2 will be better the main reason is that the lg g2 is having IR blaster but the nexus hasn't so i personally suggest LG G2!!!!
sorry for my English..

Thanks for the input I decided to get the L2 G2

Have you already bought LG G2? I'm asking because on comperio.co I found out that this phone has great screen resolution and I'm curious what's your opinon

i guess huawei Y300 is a great (cheap) device too

Still Sad.

It's been about a year since my Infuse has been decommissioned and even after the hours of trying to fix it from a temporary brick I still miss it. I miss all the familiar faces, especially you Andros.. I now have an Sprint LG Optimus G with some of the most devoted and amazing developers I've ever seen and I'm so happy to have this device. Good bye Infuse.
