Is anyone thinking about upgrading to the note 3, or anything else coming out soon that's eye catching?

I'm pretty sure I'm going for the G2 soon.

From what I heard at best buy today from some lady that was some Verizon district something, you can move your upgrade to another line and upgrade that line. Then at home go to my Verizon and swap the numbers around. I'm pretty torn. I want to jump all over the note 3, but idk. I played with it for like 20 minutes and its pretty awesome.

Considering a Nexus 5 and a jump to T-Mobile. Still have until May on my contract though, so I'll be waiting to see what's up by then.

What do you suggest for upgrade

Upgrade is in two weeks, what is your suggestions? Anything now or is there anything in coming months to wait for? I want note II but I don't see it coming to Verizon.

Supposedly the Droid Incredible X is rumored to be the Galaxy Nexus 5 and will hit Verizon soon. It sounds really impressive. But as of on the market now, definitely a Galaxy S3.

Wait for the Nexus hubbub, but if Verizon doesn't get a new Nexus, get the Galaxy Nexus, it's basically free with contract.

Well I'm pretty sure I may be getting HTC's first "phablet" with a leaked name of HTC DNA (others know it as a rumored name of the Droid Incredible X) when my upgrade comes in 3 weeks. That is around the time it may be released.

Okay I didn't mean that offensively, that's just my opinion, if I saw you holding a Note on the side of your head, I'd think you're a well dork, jackass, all the same.
That's just me, I mean people feel similarly about belt clips for phones, for example. Just opinion, and an opinion over the internet at that. Everyone hates you on the internet....

The only way I'd pick up another HTC device is if it were a Nexus. For the cheap way out I also vote for the GNex.

Sorry to say this but wrong on three accounts. The galaxy part of the nexus name was Samsung's idea for their version of the phone. Google wanted to call the last one the nexus prime. LG was/did get the contract for the new nexus and this one is the 4th generation nexus which would make it the nexus 4. Sorry..... Rumors have it that the new nexus may not make it to Verizon because the LG version of the phone will be on the network. From what I have read the only difference is that the nexus variant will sport vanilla android. This may not be a problem though with the hardware being the same the roms should port right over. Personally, if I were you I would go nexus. They have by far the best update rate of all of the phone available.

Yea that supposed phone from HTC being the next Nexus looks like its been given the name of HTC DNA according to a photo leaked from a VZW document. I had a feeling this phone was not going to be a Nexus anyway

Best upgrade for feb/march

As the title says, I'm going to start a new contract and get my wife a Verizon phone also, does anyone know of good phones coming out around February or March?
I want a high end phone something to replace my beloved rezound.
Should I just wait? I know the sgs4 is coming soon... Any advice would be great. I'm willing to wait. I do prefer htc phones but the dna's screen is too big for me. And sd card is a must

If you're willing to wait just wait. HTC phones of late = far form the quality they're known for producing. SGS4 should be good and well worth the extra 3-4 month wait if you only plan on upgrading every 20 months.
I would wait and see what the next batch of phones will be. Im sure that it will be worth the wait. Imo

Consider Sony Xperia Z as backup?

Just like everyone else here I am absolutely loving my note. Hands down the best phone I've had yet. But I was wondering if anyone is curious about the Xperia Z. Watched a few videos, visited the site and just went through the specs. It might not be all around as great as the note 2, but its going to be a close competitor. With the 13 mp camera I am positive I'll be using my upgrade in October to get one, assuming Verizon offers it.

I've been looking at it to, it's a sweet looking device! The only thing (as usual) is the less than steller battery compared to the Note 2.
I won't be looking for a while. I am extremely happy with the note 2. Last device I will be getting for maybe even two years

No not really, its a sweet lookin phone but the Note 2 is a beast. Also I thought it wasn't coming to Verizon? And I'm hoping the Moto X kills every phone when it finally hits, rumored to be sold on the play store with a low non contract price, killer specs and to be the first real Moto/Google phone since Google bought them and unlockable. I believe this will be my next phone.

Switching from note 3

Hey fellow members I currently have a note 3 on Verizon... U know spec wise the note is more powerful but my girlfriend recently got a one max and I'm liking what I see.... Anybody here coming from a note 3.. Can tell me.... How's battery life... How's the experience will I miss the slightly newer processor.. Is the radio reception on par or better?... How's Ron development?... I just need feedback so I'll know I'm making a good decision... Thanks guys
I had a Note 3 too and I don't really miss it at all. The battery life is about the same. I have yet to find anything that I can't do on the One Max that I could do on the Note 3. (Subtracting all the S-Pen stuff, of course.) In my personal opinion, radio reception is at the very least on par with. ROM development is growing and you don't have to worry about KNOX blowing out any chance of a warranty. All in all, I'd recommend the move.

Same here for me here.
I've got my note 3 since two month now and it's really a great device. But every day I think about switching to the max.
Before the note 3 I got the very first note and now I think it would be nice to have something different.
This spen stuff is not bad but to be honest I don't really need that. Sometimes it's quite useful but I think I can live without that.
I hope that the community will grow in the next weeks.

I think i can tolerate it I don't take many pics with my phone and I did a brief comparison with my note cam and my girlfriend's max cam and the note was better in the day time (not mind blowing though) but at night and in dim areas the shots looked more natural with the max... So i think I could deal with the camera downgrade..

Hello, current N3 owner and thinking about trying out the G3. Curious if any of you who have the phone came from the Note. If so, what are your thoughts? I like my Note alot but always like change. Thanks

Im a note 2 owner and its a fun device. I hate vanilla android and love touchwiz etc... Lg home is more vanilla than touch wiz that would be my silly gripe. I find the size almost perfect.

Thanks, same here on the S-Pen... I think the size will be perfect as sometimes I find my N3 just a tad too big.
Also came from the note 2. I loved the device, but I do prefer a more vanilla, or less convoluted experience than Touch whiz. The tw features that I actually used and where useful to me are present on the g3. The camera is night and day compared to the note 2. Takes great more natural looking shots than the s5 imo. I did use the s-pen when I remembered it was there... It was always more of a novelty to me. I could no longer justify the price tag that the note 4 is sure to come with when the g3 has the size and features I actually use, and your able to get them for a steal on contact at $99. I've loved the non Samsung/touch whiz change.
I'm sure the note 4 will not disappoint, but the g3 has been an excellent experience so far.
I had the note 2 and 3 .... This was something to play with till the note 4 comes out

Yeah at 99.00 this phone is a steal and the note 4 will undoubtedly be the 349.00 price which is a lot. If the note 4 gets the so called retina scan feature i still doubt id get one.

I traded my note 3 for this brand new LG G3 off craigslist and a few things stand out. The battery last longer and the display is beautiful and the camera is sick with the instant focus. I hate when a phone have issues trying to focus or just not fast at doing it. Couldn't believe it has the same screen size as the note but yet feels smaller which is awesome. The sound is from the external speaker a little louder and crisper too. Its a good phone from LG.

It's a black note 3 on sprint. I never looked to see if they had a unlock method. I just bought the phone to mess around with it. I own many devices. It is in mint condition. I already have a gold g3. I always like to have two of the devices I mainly use. If really interested then pm me and we will work out the trade.

I am coming from a Note 2. I am not at all disappointed with the phone, except the battery. I take it off the charger at 5am and can't seem to get past 3pm no matter my settings. I am also disappointed with development. I understand it's got limitations with boot loader, but the S2 and GN2 had root and custom ROMS within days of release. If I would have read more into development with LG phones, I would have waited for the GN4.

You might get yourself up to speed. Things have changed since the Note 2. Have you seen the development for the Note 3? Expect worse for the N4! Pray for safestrap let alone root for the N4!
Another thing ive come to enjoy on this vs the note 2 you can add themes to individual message threads which although no big deal none of my other phones stock messaging had that feature
