I've been rocking a Samsung Galaxy S3 since it came out but my biggest question for you guys out there is, should I upgrade to a Nexus 5? (My only gripes are the non-insertable microSD card, but I'm fine with it). Why or why not?
Of course if you are willing to. There's nothing to loose.
Android 4.4 KitKat,
Advanced Camera,
Body Design,
Specifications and also it's a Google Product, These are the reasons to buy Google Nexus 5 .
Oh.. The Price is also reasonable. :good:

Hi all
I'm in a little bit of pickle and I don't no what to buy really.
Currently I have a nexus 4 as my main and regular phone, no problems its probs the best phone I've ever had.
I've just sold my Samsung s3 mini which I used during the day at work, it was nice and easy to handle in a rush.
I only have a fixed budget of £150 nothing over and has to have a 4 - 4.2inch screen nothing bigger, due coz when I am at work, I need to be able to handle it easily in one hand which nexus 4 is not really practical in doing.
I'm after a decent phone in spec wise and hopefully great community support, i love my nexus 4 coz of the customs roms available for it.
any suggestions or ideas will be much appreciated
Thank You

Does anyone know a list of all the next generation high end smartphones that will come up in the next few months?
Im starting university in october and I want to buy a smartphone that will suit my studies (computer science) . I want it to have a high end camera, fast in terms of multitasking (switching between apps fast and get the job done quickly) and maybe with stock Android L .
My current samsung s3 is laggy now..especially all those apps coming from samsung like (gallery,camera,my files etc.) I dont know if they fixed it on the newer versions like the s4 or s5. But I think I want something different this time. Dont tell me about galaxy nexus I dont like it.
So yea I want the stock apps to be fast too..
Any phone recommendations?

The Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy S3 are both old business now; you would probably have a very different experience with any flagship from 2013 or 2014, which for the most part all have more than sufficient hardware. However, if you want to wait for the latest and greatest, there will probably be word of the next Nexus sometime within the next couple months.
There are 3 threads already established that are devoted to discussions about devices, please read, and if necessary, repost your question in one of these threads: The what should I buy thread or the The Device Suggestion Thread or the The Device Comparison Thread.
There are also several other discussion threads that you probably should review to help you. They are What phone do you wish you had? or
The Worst Android Device That You've Ever Had & Why or even this place that talks about The best phone you ever owned.
Hopefully this falls into the guidelines for the Q&A. I can't decide which device I should buy, the Nexus 6, or the iPhone 6 Plus. Where I work, we have a 64GB 6 Plus for my carrier. So availability isn't an issue for me. Both devices have pros and cons. The biggest pro about the iPhone is that it can backup and restore my data with ease. The Nexus would allow me to do more (in a slightly less organized manner). What would you guys choose?

There is a sticky thread here for this kind of question: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846277
and i'm almost sure everyone here will suggest you to get the nexus 6 because you are in an android forum, not much apple fans here
Thanks for the link. Yes there are Android fans on here, myself included, but I sample from both systems so I don't develop a dependence on only one. Plus I sell phones for a living. So I have to give unbiased explanations.

There's a Nexus 6 Plus already?
Oh, you're talking about the iPOS 6 Plus.
You're unlikely to find many unbiased opinions here.
My sony xperia z3 is now dead and I need a new phone and I'm choosing between LG G4 which is now available in the market, or wait for iPhone 6s/7.
LG G4 because I think it is one of the best phones out there available that I can use for years, cool features and camera.
iPhone 6s/7 because I wanted to try something different, I wanted to try ios and since apple is gonna release the new iphone anytime soon, i think its better to wait if I choose apple rather than buy the currently available iPhone 6.
I want a phone that will last for years, a phone that I can bring while traveling without any hassle, good camera, good for games, good for everyday usage, an overall phone for short.
Hi there,
The best way to get opinions on this would be to ask in this thread:

Good luck
Hey all. Thx in advance for assisting me.
Its going to be soon my 3 years with my girlfriend. My GF smartphone is done, ( Jiayu G3C ) she will need a new one really soon.
I was thinking to gift her with an old but still solid smartphone. I have currently a Galaxy S4 I9005. I´m thinking to buy her a Galaxy s5 Mini, Im not sure it is the best choice of a smartphone costing under 300Euros i´m scared its too obsolete and lacking power for Android 6.0, the smartphone can be used I don´t mind
Another concern would be if my galaxy s4 is faster (More fluid) than the s5 Mini have not a clue ( I can have for 260Euros a new S4 and 240Euros a S5Mini) . The water proof thing is cool in all but not the most important. the smartphone need to be under 5" screen and be 100% fluid fast other than that camera or sensors are just extra but not needed.
Thanks a lot if you reached here Best regards Peps
