Am usually a samsung user but Ive had bad luck with every samaung phone I bought so am thinking of changing the company.

Definitely a new HTC One for me also.

One smartphone to be looking forward to is the new LG G2 Pro.

(Hi Justmpm)

Nexus 5(300) vs g2(320)

Which one should i go with?
Nexus 5 pros:
Faster android updates
Much better design in my opinion
G2 pros:
Bigger battery
Bigger screen
camera( i dont really care about this)
But.. from what i ve seen in videos and comments, g2 is supposed to have much better colors right ?
But i dont like the design of g2 that much.
I cant choose seriously. They have their own pros and cons .

Help choosing device

Hello all. I am unsure if this question belongs in this sub-forum. I have been through the QUESTIONS DO NOT BELONG IN GENERAL post, but i think this is not a Q&A.
So the reason i have this question is that im at a standstill. I was set to buy the Nexus 6, but the size and price made me change my decision.
Anyway, now i have rethink and im undecided between the Nexus 5 and the Oneplus one. The main reason im undecided is related to roms and software.
By looking at the N5 sub-forum here in XDA i see thousands of posts when compared to the OPO. I am worried that even though being a bit less heavy spec-wise the N5 might keep more developers working on it then on the OPO. Therefore more roms and software for the future.
Related to hardware i know the opo has better specs. Rounding up the HW differences what makes me undecided between the two is the RAM and the better battery life.
So iam currently stuck between these two phones and ill have to make a decision soon, i will be buying one of these in about two weeks.
Thank you for everyones help.
Best regards

you can go for samsung note 4 it`s so good

personally, between those two, I'd go with the Nexus 5 (just barely) for the exact reason you said: dev support.
Now if it was Nexus 6 and Oneplus One, I'd go Oneplus no question because of the price difference yet great specs on the One.

not matter what ,if i want to buy a new phone ,i will buy the latest
model for certain brand,if the latest model cannot satisfy my needs with their
price or size ,i will go for the latest model of other brand .that is my suggestion,
guessing samsung latest model is good .

The One Plus One is an exceptionally good piece of kit for the price and runs cyanogenmod which is a fantastic OS

Hello everyone and thank you for the replies.
I have decided to go with the One, i have been going through lots of forum posts lately reading from persons who changed from N5 to One, and in the bigger picture most ppl are calling it a good decision and a improvement.
It seems to me that the N5 is really a good phone, and imo its a better looking phone then the One, but following all my readings, the screen and the Ram in the One make a solid improvement over the N5.
Regarding my biggest concern, the software devs, well im just going to have faith in the One community. :angel: The device already runs one of the most popular roms and i have recently found out that the One is a supported phone for the franco kernel.
All in all i think im doing a good decision.
Right now im crazily sourcing funds to buy it, while i wait for my invite...

Choose OnePlus , it's a monster .
I personally like the Stock Interface more than custom UI's .

What should I buy?

Hi guys!
I'm using an old iPhone 4 and its getting worse and worse day by day. I'm planning to change my phone. iPhone 6S, SGS 6 Edge+, HTC One M9 and xperia z3+ are in my mind but i couldn't make a choice between these ones. I used to use Huawei U8650 before so I know the Android environment.
iOS is smooth and stable but its quite expensive to buy now. Could you help me please?
Thanks!

Does a new 2015 phone outlive a new 2014 (or older) one?

Hello XDA!
My faithful Galaxy Nexus is finally showing its age and is starting to malfunction, so it's time to look for a new one - and I'm continuing with the Nexus family. I can afford a new Nexus 5X or a new Nexus 6, and I'm leaning towards the Motorola, but I am worried that the LG is a better choice in the long run.
To make it clear, I don't care for the latest Android. I know the 6 will stop getting updates before the 5X does, but there are always custom ROMs. My question is whether the 6 will start having technical problems (signal issues, battery death, camera & OS issues - like my Galaxy Nexus has) before the 6 would, considering both of them are mint condition. Does the phone stay in "cryogenic mode" until it's used by someone, or is there some sort of "planned obsolescence" that will make older phones fail sooner than new ones?
Thank you!
P.S.: If it is off-topic/forbidden, please ignore this. If you prefer the 5X to the 6 due other reasons than being newer, please let me know why. I'm not 100% sure which one to get. AND, the Nexus 6P is out of budget.

You will get far more opinions there. So I'll close this thread.
