I'm thinking of taking advantage of T-Mobile's new "JUMP! On-Demand" service. Basically I pay a monthly fee for a phone and sign an 18 month "lease", but I can upgrade at any time, up to 3 times a year. Each time I upgrade the 18 months resets. I tend to swap phones so often that this is less of a hit that $600 here, $600 there. I've narrowed it down to
LG G4
Samsung Galaxy S6
Samsung Note 4
The S6 would just outright win it if it wasn't for the short-ish battery life. The fingerprint scanner looks to be as good as Apple's, which is a huge plus. I've never had a "phablet" before, so I'm a bit weary of the Note, but the battery life is appealing and it's got a ton of features...though the Note 5 probably comes out next month.
The G4 seems like a decent in-between phone. It definitely doesn't feel like it's got a 5.5" screen, and it's got a pretty big battery. The camera on each of these phones should be more than adequate. I do love Samsung's AMOLED displays, but the Samsungs at the T-Mobile store I went to all had screen burn-in. This worried me, but the store was also complete shit all around so maybe they just didn't take care of their phones. What say you all?
