87GT Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 What cell phone would you buy and why if you were currently eligible to upgrade as of today? I currently have verizon and my contract is up. I am not sure if I want to change carriers since verizon always has signal. The only place it did not was in a cabin I rented in hocking hills but I am okay with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrhobbz Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Check out the LG G3 if you dont want something as big as the note. Have been very pleased with my G3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRed05 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 On verizon, Moto X. On any other carrier...probably Nexus 5, maybe Moto X. http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/10/07/moto-x-2014-review-a-nearly-perfect-android-phone/ "One of the best smartphones ever created" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87GT Posted January 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 NOTE4 4 LYFE The developer model or the normal locked bootloader model? I still currently use a note 2 and I like it but it is starting to crash and fail. I don't know if it is kitkat 4.4.4 or my hardware is finally failing on me.

morabu Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 I would say Note 3 or 4, LG G3, Nexus 5 or 6 Those are about the only phones I would be looking at, if my current Note 3 bit the dirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImUrOBGYN Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Nexus 5 or 6, HTC One M8 or the Moto X. In a perfect world for me, I'd have the innards of the Nexus 5 inside the HTC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04silvrz Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Nexus 6 - i have Nexus 6 and love it. I would also look at one plus one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 I just went from note 2 to 4. I love my 4 and it feels smaller than the 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spankis Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Any word on a timeline for the Galaxy S6? I'm due for an upgrade in February, through Verizon. Debating on what may or may not be worth waiting for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRed05 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 I didn't realize you were using a Note now, so you're obviously ok with massive phones, so then I'd say Nexus 6 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supldys Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 I thought Verizon was great until I left Ohio, and couldn't get a signal anywhere. I've never had a problem getting a signal with ATT. No suggestions from me though, I always go for the $.99 phones (usually Nokia windows phones).

ShowHBK Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 I love my HTC one M8. I upgraded from an iPhone 4s about a year ago and I have never looked back. I would highly recommended looking into the M8. Other phones to think about if you want the best would be the Nexus 6, Note 4, or the G3. All very nice phones to get lollipop. Say what you want about Apple, but a honorable mention would go to the iPhone 6 Plus imo because it really is a nice phone overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not had any issues when I've been on vacation with the exception of WV. But I at least have 1X in the mountains to make calls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Att has greater west coast coverage than verizon. Verizon has greater east coast coverage. I switched to att from Verizon in 2010 and I'm not looking back. Att sold their towers to Verizon in the 80s for a reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I switched to att from Verizon in 2010 and I'm not looking back. Att sold their towers to Verizon in the 80s for a reason. I believe you. I've had zero problems in the big island of Hawaii, San Diego, Coronado Island, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Flagstaff, Albuquerque, and, Amarillo. Those are all larger cities so that maybe why I had awesome signal. I drove through Oklahoma and Missouri stopping at random places for food and no problems with signal. Also driving through Chicago where there are more windmills than people was fine. Being about 1 hour away from Wisconsin border and had awesome signal. I've been with Verizon since 2001 with tons of different phones and I really only had zero signal in a part of hocking hills. I am really looking for a good reason to switch to ATT or whoever else but I can't come up with one yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
