Get the Nexus 4. The official support will last longer and It has nearly perfected Roms where as S3 is still a bugfest.

Nexus 4 is better choice :)
[General Topics] kamendra:
Google Nexus 5 is much better compare to Sony xperia Z because it has a 4.95-inch IPS full HD display which is made of Corning Gorilla Glass 3. The Nexus 5 packs the powerful quad-core 2.3 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 mobile SoC, 2 GB RAM, and Android 4.4 KitKat out of the box. The 130 grams weighing smartphone comes with dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 LE and 2300 mAh battery.

Yes...but big difference in price.

Verizon LG G2 on T-Mobiles Network

You could get the verizon lg g2 from ebay for around $400

(Got mine for $370 with a bad verizon IMEI which doesn't matter cause I planned to use it on tmobile)

This device comes unlocked by default so theres no way you'll find one that doesn't work for t-mobile.

Grab a nice case for it and you're set.

[General Topics] ocarinaz64:
What I really enjoy about Android is that different devices suit different people better. Of course you get all the different options like screen size, storage, and speed. But you also get the opportunity to use and develop custom ROMs for your device. So you can get just what you're looking for. Another big choice would be to find out about the wireless network coverage in your area. For example, you might not want to spend any extra to get an LTE device if your coverage area doesn't have that network anyway.

As for myself, I just bought an HTC EVO 4G LTE. Where I live we have 4G WiMax coverage, not LTE. I had debated on trying for a cheaper phone, but I really liked the ROM development that was going on for that device. I also hear that in the future Sprint should be giving my area an upgrade and I can get LTE speeds.

They are usually ridulously overpriced, and then drop in prices a lot. Also buying a used phone makes a lot of sense especially after holiday season. People are selling thier old (6-month) devices for half the price, but they are still very good hardware. With software from XDA you can bring them back to life.

If you determine what feature is most important to you and prioritize the rest then you can make a viable comparison.

This way you remove anyone's opinion. Ex: Sprint, Removable Battery, SD Card, Camera would be my starting line up. Sprint because I need unlimited data (5 phones) it is best price in my area.

Rest is what I deem important to me. In my family we have 2 S4, 2S3, 2 iOS and each has their own preference even if I disagree.

S3 that I have is rooted and wifi only because of Knox I can't root my S4. So even comparing the 2 phones I carry I have my reasons.

The point is they have chosen it for whatever reason and so did I.

Also, I might be buying S3. I just think it has a terrible design :D

Well dont buy a windows phone just to be diff from everyone. If you get one it should be for the right reasons, like buying it because you like it. If not, you'll be getting it for others to prove a point to them. That means youre not buying it for yourself.

If you use root apps and like modding your device go for Nexus 5. You can do everything you want and then revert it to the original condition to claim warranty just in case anything goes wrong with the phone.
[General Topics] ModestZombie:
A few thoughts

Amen to that! With the proper steps taken, you can always revert back to 100% stock even if you root your device. This was (hardly) an issue during the early days of android development.

I'm currently rocking the Galaxy Nexus (recently updated to ShinyROM 4.4.2). My next device is tough one, because I'm grandfathered into an unlimited plan (I avg 20 gb a month) and in order for me to get a new device at the contracted price, I'd have to sacrifice my Unlimited Data plan :/ yo no gusto. I was thinking of checking around for a used Galaxy Note 3 on local classifieds when the prices come down, but until then I really don't want to pay $500-$900 for a new phone.

If you are going to root your device, a word to the wise: Do as much reading on your device as you can, before you root or flash any software to your phone. There are loads of guides for almost each and every device (as each may have a different step or two depending on OS version, manufacturer, hardware, etc). Plus with this being, well, - the Internet - someone somewhere has *almost* always had the same problem your presumably going to have, so look around for an answer before you ask the forums. As everyone has heard before, make Google your best friend. If anyone has a question I'd be glad to help, or point them in the right direction.
