Currently using s5 on LOS. It's really near perfect for my use but wanting something little smaller.
I'd same price, would you get the S7 or A3 2017?
Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
The S7 of course, did you check the specs of both devices?
A3 doesn't even have a full HD screen
Of course but was thinking more from daily form factor use.

You realise you're asking if S7 owners would buy a crappy low spec'd device instead of an S7, in the S7 forums?
What were you expecting as a reply? lol
True I just wanted various inputs. Thanks

I'm going to buy a new smartphone and I'm between the S3 and nexus 4.
I'll be glad to hear for some opinions!
Here we go again.
S3
nexus 4, cheaper and got pure google android experience and look
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I'd go with the nexus 4... can always be sure that it gets the latest android version. Concerns with nexus 4 if you need a lot of storage... only has 16gb. (I prefer 16gb all local vs. having an emmc) Also some are concerned about the glass backing. (I wouldn't be TOO concerned w/ the glass backing... you could throw a case on it... I also heard of the possibility of different back panels). Any benefits the GS III provides would be offset by the price imo.

Guys have you'll seen the New Benchmarks for the N4? Crazy! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1977708
Go with the Nexus 4 If you dont mind 16 GB and the glass cover being fragile!
Then you'd be feeling wrong .

Its a no brainer. Galaxy S3 has got a lot more to offer.
But everyone has a personal preference, right?

samsung galaxy s3
S3 if you need more storage space
Go for the Nexus 4 if you don't need storage more than 16GB. else Nexus 4 all the way.
nexus 4. :good:
Nexus 4 bc of faster ROM updates

Snapdragon S4Pro/600 is the last thing I wanted in this phone
If it has to be this way, I hope that everyone gets the same hardware worldwide
No more NA/international split
Cool!

What's your issue with the S4 Pro? Just wondering.
I wish it was the 800 but that won't be out til later so... Oh well. Maybe the Google X phone will have it? Though Motorola doesn't usually use snapdragon chips.

Erm, pretty much the only reason the S3 didn't get a exynos was because, at the time, quad core cpus didn't work with LTE. The reason the Note 2 has a Exynos quad is because they do work with LTE now. That being said, do you really think Samsung is going to use a processor from another manufacturer?

And what have you been reading? The same sources that said it would feature an unbreakable plastic screen?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
Honest question, can any of you actually tell the difference if two phones with exact hardware except cpu tell a difference?
If the cost of sourcing processors from somewhere else is less than that of producing and using the Exynos, I see no problem with it.

Why should i wait for the Nexus 5 when the G2 is out and has the same or better specs. I'm just getting tired of waiting i want a new phone this phone (as great as is it) was almost a mistake to get.

I guess if you don't care about the difference in price, ~$200 for an unlocked device.

As much as that would be a great reason since I have to wait for TELUS to get it anyways cause I can't afford to by it out it does not help me make a choice in this case other then it should still be cheaper.
Sent from my MI 2 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
It was a tough choice, but since the rumor that the N5 is getting a 3000MAh battery was getting debunked, I decided to go with the G2 a few days ago. I might get the N5 as a backup phone if it's announcement impresses me.
If I were to choose a N5 over the G2, it be for the pure google experience, even if i'd say LG's skin is decent.
The lg g2 got the WORST review of any android flagship phone.
It has been discovered that it has carrierID (evil).
We might (my speculation) see a Google edition g2 in the future, I'd get that over a n5 or a regular g2
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Definitely N5 for me...Cheaper, decent specs and...Google exprience !
A Nexus device is better than skinned one, gonna get it as soon as I can and sell my Note 3.
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Well I'm in the same situation as OP, my family is just got off contract with Sprint and we going prepaid trail. So i was sold on G2 before i heard that Nexus 5 is about to get released. So i decided to patiently wait for N5.
Why would i wait? Because I want to always have latest Android os as soon as it released. Because price is cheaper.

Knox is tripped by flashing a Rom or recovery. When u go back to stock the knox is still tripped and u can't change it back to normal. Samsung uses this as an excuse to void ur warranty.
It's some bs that makes me disappointed with Samsung because I wanted the phone for a while but if I can't flash a Rom and totally go back to stock for warranty then it ruins the fun

Oh I see. Well if its warranty reason then I can totally understand but as far as device vs device I really cannot see how the Nexus 5 can compete against the Note 3. My 2 cents.

Given that the Nexus 5 and LG G2 will be similar, is it reasonable to expect that the battery life on the Nexus 5 will be awesome too?
im still debating
I think at this point as long as the nexus 5 gets announced this week I am getting it. If we get no word from Google then I am done waiting.

I love the MXPE! It's a great phone. With that being said, I'm returning it. I got a Nexus 6 at an incredible deal. I had planned on reselling it but after opening the box and trying it out, I just like it better. I'm coming from a Droid Turbo and I loved Qi charging as well as the AMOLED display. I've previously had all the Samsung Galaxy S series phones along with a Nexus S. I'm spoiled to the AMOLED displays. The MXPE is easier to handle and the screen is plenty big. It's just nice to have the ability to sit my phone down on the TYLT charger at night rather than look for the dang cord that always seems to fall between the night stand and the bed. Plus, I'm on call. When the phone rings at 3am, I feel like I'm going to rip the cord out of the phone when I answer. If this phone had wireless charging and an amoled display it would definitely be a keeper for me. I got the Nexus 6 when the deal was running on ebay for $299(new). It was hard to pass up that deal

To each his own man, glad you at least tried it. On the other hand, the Nexus 6 is still a beast of a phone, and that deal is sweet too
Thread closed, similar type thread already exists in same forum.
As the title says, I just picked up a s6 after owning an s4. I am familiar with rooting but so far I have read nothing but negative reviews of the s6 due to that there's no root for 5.1.1. So my question is. should I jump ship? I was also looking into the iphine 6.Or is it possible a root exploit would be found soon.

If you want root jump ship. I doubt there's going to be root

Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
I've been pretty disappointed and somewhat bored not having root but with disabling apps, theme support, battery life and overall great performance it's worth keeping and preying for root. Definitely miss my s4 though.

Yeah man non rooted phones are boring. my first rooted android was the Droid x and I have never gone back to stock. I'm waiting for ios 9.2 jailbreak to be released then I'll jump ship.
