The *OFFICIAL* Which Cell Phone You Got/Want?
I've been a Samsung fan for years but for the last year have used a HTC EVO 4G LTE. And all I can say is WOW! What an incredible device!
The screen and PQ is gorgeous, great sound quality (beats audio) solid call quality, super fast, and best of all... terrific Battery Life! What's NOT to love. I typically change devices about every year or so. I definitely prefer the ANDROID OS vs iOS (not knocking Apple!) so naturally, I've decided to grab the new HTC One: http://www.htc.com/www/smartphones/htc-one/ Quote:

I just got an S4 and so far I like it. I had an HTC thunderbolt before. So it was a nice upgrade.

iPhone 5 for me. Other phones are too big IMO and are annoying to carry around.
I do really like the htc one . That might be my next phone.

I read where the next iPhone will be offered in not only different screen sizes (as large as 5in) but multiple colors. So that's pretty cool.
I just love the open platform and flexibility of Android. And as far as size... Once you surf and watch videos or even movies or sporting events on a larger screen size like Galaxy S or HTC... All else is puny and lacking. The only thing that I dislike about the Sammys now is the plasticky hollow feel. But you can NOT sleep on the screen and PQ of any Samsung. That is their forte'!

iPhone 5. I love the customization you get with android, but I would miss having the simplicity that comes with iOS. iOS7 looks great, I can't wait for that.
If I was to switch, I'd get the HTC one.. That phone is probably one of the best phones I've seen. The S4 is just big and feels cheap

Shocked this hasn't turned into a pissing match yet...
Anyway, I just switched from the iPhone 5 to the Galaxy S4. I wanted a change of pace and got it. As to the size issue, my S4 is currently the exact same dimensions (just a little thinner) than my fiance's iPhone 5 with her case on it. She has an Otter but she's got the smaller, traveller Otter case, so it's not the biggest Otter out there, but not as sleek as some of the other cases out there either. I also have a slim case on my S4 (the one that has the flip cover), so it's not very well protected, but so far so good. I'm sure if I put a big case on my S4 it'd be massive and that might be an issue.

Have Samsung S3.... As for next one, either the S4 or the HTC One. The HTC looks mighty fine!

It arrived yesterday and all I can say is WOW... I have been extremely impressed with my current EVO 4G LTE but this ONE is on another whole level!
It is ultra-thin!!! Yet it feels significant. Meaning far from cheap! Those dual speakers... This is easily the most "significant cellular device available". Meaning: Overall everything! And the speed... Can't wait to root it...

I use the Razr Maxx for battery life. I can go days without charging it. As a systems engineer I am on the phone and using 4g all day. It just never dies.
