I ordered an HTC One M8 (on its way), but I am now thinking I should have gone with a Moto X (2014) or to a lesser extent an LG G3. What does everyone think?
[General Topics] iMarv:
Note 4 Edge!
[General Topics] marcusloke:
Its a good choice with the M8, since performance wise its is up there above the other 2.

On top of that its design is awesome.

I understand about the LG G3 since it has 3GB ram, but unfortunately its performance is not that much better and in some cases even lower than the M8. I speak from facts on performance benchmarks you can google easily. The biggest problem is having a 5.5" QHD screen on a Adreno 330 chip which some reviews say causes throttling and thus performance issues.

At my area the Moto X Gen 2 is the cheaper of these 3, and has the same specs and same hardware MINUS the 3GB on the LG G3.

Of course as said on the top on this post, the M8 beats the other 2 hands down on design, feel and build.

BUT the caveat being that with all this said its just my personal feel and opinion, you may or may not agree

Cheers

I dont see any reason to pay full price for any new phone this year and upgrade G2 right now. However, prices for used LG G3 are getting close to 400, so it is very tempting to get it but I am really afraid of all those IMEI scams. Decisions decisions.
[General Topics] Richieboy67:
Benchmarks are really kind of worthless and do not translate to every day use.

Its not only about benchmarks but a fact that the G3 throttles down quickly because of underpowered hardware.

Any used GSM phone might get blocked by the original buyer. I am just saying prices on used G3 are looking good now but buying used has its problems. There are tons of threads like this on the subject:

http://community.ebay.com/t5/Electronics/Phone-ends-up-with-blocked-IMEI/td-p/2714753

The gist of it:

Basically buyers of used phone dont have much protection, so buying used has become way too risky.
[General Topics] force70:
The only way to circumvent this is to purchase a phone from a diff carrier.

If I buy a tmobile device and its imei is blacklist it doesn't matter since im on rogers in canada. Id never buy a used phone from the same carrier or country for this reason and to be double safe.

If your on att for example buy a rogers or bell device...no worries of black listing

From what ive read also a gsm device has had to have had a sim card activate in it for it to be able to get black listed. So even if the device is bought private but still sealed in the box you are safe.

Someone please correct me if that is not the case?

Should I buy a Nexus 7 (2013) or a laptop?

I am a student and I need to do the following:

I MUST access the Internet using an Ethernet cable. I know that the Nexus 7 (2013) has some issues with it but they are probably resolved.

Browse the Internet (heavily), manage my Chrome bookmarks, work with websites/apps like Duolingo, Evernote, Pocket, Drive and other Internet Stuff. I need to view some websites in the same manner as they appear on the desktop/laptop because not every website has its app on the Play Store.

Create, edit and view MS Office/Libre Office content like documents and slide show presentations.

I also intend to learn Latex and prepare professional documents using Latex. So I'll need to work with a TeX app which is actually good enough to use.

Music and movies are quite obvious.

I'll also need to host a website on local server (like we do it using WAMP/XAMPP) and edit the php and other files of the website and see the changes in a browser. I don't really intend to do any serious programming though.

I am also thinking that the NVIDIA Shield might be a better option than the Nexus 7 right now but the Shield hasn't been released in my country. I can, however, import it using Amazon but it will cost me $370 for the 16GB Wifi Only model. Should I do this if I should buy a tablet instead of a laptop?
[General Topics] teonagode:
Different games dosent count, you need to test MC4 for at least 3 hours and can't stop for a minute, whilst your nephew was only casually gaming like 5 minutes Real Racing and others etc. and that dosent get the processor warm enough to start throttling :)
[General Topics] Richieboy67:
I didn't say he played act single game for 5 minutes and he did pay mc4 for about an hour. I played that before as well.

I don't think you need to play a game for 3 hours to get the CPU and GPU to peak.

And if the issue only occurs after playing a game for 3 hours straight than it doesn't seem like a major issue for most people. If I want to game that long I'll use my xbox one, PC or even my nexus 7.

Pretty much unsecure between Moto G 2014 and Lumia 735.

Moto G is cheaper (199€ vs 269€) and has a bigger screen (5" vs 4.7") but they have the same resolution (1280x720) wich means that Moto G has less ppi (294 vs 312), Moto G also lacks NFC that could be usefull (but i'm not pretty sure why, here in Italy Google wallet is not working and there are no NFC pay app for windows phone). Camera i think is slightly better on Lumia but i can't find a proper comparison. They both have micro-sd but lumia has removable battery. Last difference, lumia has an OLED and MotoG has an LCD. I'm pretty scared of burned oled screen, does the problem still happens?

Galaxy S4 vs S4 Zoom

I'm looking for a phone that has a good camera, so I don't have to bring along both camera and phone. I could care less what the pixel count is, I'm just looking for something that "freezes" things when taking a pictures. Seems like almost every picture I try to take of the kids is blurry with my LG Optimus L9 or Pantech Discover. I'm guessing the S4 or S4 Zoom would both be better than the phones I already have, but does anyone have experience with both and can recommend? I have read the S4 Zoom specs are closer to the S4 mini (minus the camera), but would it be all that bothersome?

I have owned every single flagship, I sell for a living, so I get a new one every week or two. it really depends what you are looking for or what is important to you. If you want speed, take the m8, if you want camera and feauters take the G3. If you want a combination of both, the Oneplus is nice but buggy. My next new phone without a doubt, is going to be the next Nexus 6. If I were you, I would wait until the end of the month and take it.

If development is important to you. Buy only the t mobile g3, only one with unlock bootloader. My favorite phones of 2014 are 1 Lg g flex, but the development sucks. 2 Oneplus one 3 Lg G3 again development sucks. 4 Sony z2 4 The Sony Z ultra, same as g flex a bit old. 6 M8, very fast but I don't like 5 inch screens.

Super interested in the ascend mate 7 but no idea when or if I can get it in canada.

Now looks like the nexus 6 is what I have my sights set on, provided it does in fact have a 5.9" screen and hoping for ext sd support or min 64gb internal storage.

Other than that not much left interesting out there this year sadly. Considering the year before I bought 5 devices this has been a pretty quiet year lol.

Hi, I'm looking for a replacement for my Galaxy S2. I'm waiting for the new Nexus announcement but in the meantime I'm exploring different options in case the Nexus is too big or too expensive.

I want a long-term option, a smartphone that can last ~3 years. Since I live in Spain, I have some 4G requeriments. As of today 4G is not fully implemented in Spain, but I guess it will for the long term. Currently there are two LTE bands in use for carriers; 1800 and 2600. They are planning to start using the 800 band in 2015, so I'm looking for a 800 band compatible smartphone. I had in consideration the OnePlus One and Huawei Honor 6 but since these smartphones don't support the 800 band, I discarded them.

I ended up with two options; Samsung Galaxy S5 and LG G3. I've read a lot of forums and it seems that LG G3 is not performing as it should be, and its battery life isn't that great, among other 'minor' problems. I really liked this phone by the reviews but I guess S5 would be a better fit for me. I don't know if G3 is going to improve with further updates, but I think LG is quite slow releasing them so an update to Android L would take a lot of time, right? How fast Samsung is pushing Android updates? Is there a major problem with Samsung Galaxy S5?

Also another consideration, I enjoyed a lot changing the ROM of my old S2. I really liked to try new ones and trying kernels. Thats something I wouldn't be able to do in a LG G3 right? I think I read the bootloader was blocked and there wasn't too much to dig in the phone...

What do you think? Which one should I buy? Of course if you have any other alternative that match the requeriments, I'll be glad to know it.
[General Topics] Planterz:
Nexus 5 if the 6 is too big for you. It'll work on Spain's LTE bands (just get the right version), has a massive amount of development (ROMs, kernels, etc), and gets the latest updates if you stick with stock.
[General Topics] force70:
true the nexus 5 has a ton of development and gets the fastest updates but it was a very poorly built device (at least mine was) with a terrible camera, small internal storage capacity with no ext sd support and a small non removable battery. Not a device I would recommend to anyone.

The G3 is unlocked if you buy a tmobile device but thus far even unlocked not alot of development for it.

For the poster who asked it would seem the S5 would be a good fit for you

My nexus 5 doesn't seem poorly built. The camera is great IMO, battery life is much better than my girlfriends iPhone 4s was that just died, battery life keeps getting better but peoples expectations are getting higher faster than battery life increases lol.

I wish I had 32gb but that would be plenty storage for me.

Only complaint I have is call quality isn't as good as my old HTC. It's finicky about how far you hold it away from your mouth and how high the volume is (causing an echo on the other end).

I would still recommend it over any Samsung but for a regular user I'd probably recommend an m8.
