Hey everyone, for the past couple of days I've been searching around and comparing these two tablets to find out their differences due to the fact that I've been offered a tab s2 in exchange for my nexus 9; I'm not sure whether it is a good idea to exchange them or not as both have their advantages and flaws with nexus 9 processor being significantly better. So I'd like to hear from the experts and variety of opinions in whether I should make this decision or not.
Thanks,
For information I used the nexus 9 for pretty much everything from videos to gaming and of course for reading pdfs and other documents etc. My only problem with it is the lack of space as I bought 16gb version.
As for tab s2, it's benchmark is awful with the nexus 9 having a significant lead but I'm loving the larger display, more storage and better screen. So I'm not sure if I should or not someone please shed me some light Dx
I have been always a nexus owner, owning the previous nexus 7, it's my first time switching to samsung and I don't know much about it.
Thanks again, and sorry if it's too long.

Hello!
I need your kind suggestion as I am looking to buy a new phone for me. According to my purchasing ability I can afford following handsets.
1. Samsung Note 3
2. LG G2
3. LG G2 Pro
4. Nexus 5
5. Iphone 5
Currently I am using Xperia Arc. I usually do not use handsets. If I buy any handset, then surely I will use for next 1 and 1.5 years. I need a device which will have better and faster data service, exchange mail service, handset apps, camera, longer battery life and good camera option.
I am confused. Please suggest me which handset I should purchase among them. You can also suggest other handset. Please also mention the reason why should I buy!
Looking forward to your suggestion.
Thanks,
Shimu

Hello,
I have a Samsung Exhibit II 4G (2.3.5) and need a new phone. The ExII is just too slow and irritating. My wife has a Sony Xperia T (4.3) and I am not so pleased with it either.
My big complaint is the instability caused by memory filling with apps that I/we don't use. I don't use a phone for social media or movies and do very little texting. I do write my own apps with Eclipse that make it a worker for my engineering work so do want a smart phone. I have tried a few root ROMs on the ExII but it always becomes unstable and will lock up or refuse to boot at the worst times.
I am looking for models that users either have rooted and are stable or didn't need to be rooted to keep them running fast.
I prefer smaller screens (4-4.5") and less than $300 but will go outside those bounds if I gain stability.
Any suggestion are appreciated.
Happy Trails

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 .
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.
There's a dedicated thread for such questions here,

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

Due an upgrade now. Currently have the one M8.
I am mixed between the LG G5 or S7 Edge.
I've not had an LG in decades and I've not been overly fond of the Samsung rand as I dont or didn't like the menu button lol. I also root my phones and I know Samsung have had issues with bootloops.
I know there are both similar in spec for most.
Which phones do the pubic recommend, Doesn't have to be the ones I've chosen so far?
